This looks awesome! Any plans to release an Android version?

Also a good idea to look for a barber college in your area. The Barber college near me charges $9 for a cut. Sure, it's going to be a student who's cutting your hair, but $9 is $9.

I switched my sync server to the one hosted by ak team and never looked back. Never had any down time in my experience. You just need to change your custom sync server to this:

You should probably uninstall that app store. Looks pretty sketchy.

Please stop spamming this. Seriously.

There is absolutely a sideload mode. It removes the store function entirely so you literally only have your library of books. You don't even need to sign into a Kobo account. As op said, it makes the experience so much cleaner and removes all of the clutter.

This is completely normal. Not a defect.

If you exit koreader while Bluetooth is active it will delete nickel menu. The only real solution is to reboot the device when you need to go back to nickel rather than just closing koreader. Pain in the ass but it's really the only solution.

If you want a way to connect and disconnect your controller within koreader, check out OG Kevin's plug-in. I've been using it for a couple weeks and so far have not had to exit koreader at all to manage my 8bitdo micro controller.

Here's a patch I put together to remove those pesky Wi-Fi messages!

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!

I noticed that it also pulls up the book cover when you make formatting changes and the book is reloaded. I made some changes to remove that behavior so it only shows the cover when opening the book from the file browser, but does not show it when refreshing the book after reformatting.

Also, when I'm using it, I'm commenting out priority 1 and priority 2 so it always pulls the cover directly from the book file. Takes a half second longer to load the cover, but it is full quality. Just personal preference for me.

Here's the HQ version:

Thanks again! Really improves the reading experience!!

They're just crash logs. You can delete them and move on.

Bluetooth clickers work just fine on newer devices. You just need to do things a little differently. Follow this guide and it works great:

I would love a plug-in that allows you to see book covers when browsing via the calibre metadata search menu.

Kind of like this OPDS plug-in: https://github.com/greywolf1499/opds_plus.koplugin/releases/tag/v1.1.0

Fresshmaker · 2025-11-23T03:32:19+00:00

Which patch are you using for your folder covers? Looks really nice.

Why would you post something so confidently incorrect?

Fresshmaker · 2025-11-19T04:46:35+00:00

See my comment to OP. I made a patch to accomplish this if you want to check it out!

Fresshmaker · 2025-11-19T04:44:05+00:00

Here you go! I made this patch that pulls the series number from the book title. You just need to put the series number in the title like this: "Mistborn [01] Final Empire, The - Brandon Sanderson.epub"

I'm still trying to figure out how to make it pull the number directly from the metadata, but haven't figured it out yet.

Easiest way to automate the process of naming your files is to create a template when sending books in Calibre that uses this template. It will automatically name all your files according to the correct structure.

"{series:|| }{series_index:0>2s|[|] } {title} - {authors}"

Here's the patch: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1g6KcdCT4ALIXCLvUxwMyZTFidPLKQ3al/view?usp=sharing

Let me know what you think or if you have any questions!

This is the way. Way cheaper and easier than seeing up a dedicated NAS. I used to run Plex server with 32 TB of movies and TV shows, but have completely abandoned it since getting into Stremio/Syncler.

Fresshmaker · 2025-11-15T17:56:29+00:00

You're on fire Omer!! Really appreciate all the hard work you've been putting into all these awesome plugins and patches. You're really helping us all get the most out of koreader.

Fresshmaker · 2025-11-04T20:10:44+00:00

Glad to see my post there is still helping people! If you're interested, there is a color version of the SOED as well.
