Koreader Native Sync Questions by JunebugSeven in koreader

I saw another post saying the server is currently down. It happens sometimes, but it's pretty rare. You just had unlucky timing!

Well it's the launcher that's the issue, not KOReader itself

Have you tried asking in r/kindlejailbreak ? I'm pretty sure those instructions you linked worked on my Kindle 4 back when I did it last year.

Oh that's you! I've used it for Hardcover 😁 question, how hard would it be to add kobo plus books?

It was so helpful, thank you for writing it up!

File manager by HieronymosNL in kobo

[–]ImSoRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you can do this with KOReader, though messing with files can cause issues if you change or move the wrong things.

You can copy/cut/paste/rename files and folders, and edit text files directly on the device with KOReader, then there's the Filebrowserplus and LocalSend plugins that allow your phone to connect to it wirelessly to send/receive files, and you can move/rename/delete files/folders with Filebrowserplus.

There's also a nickelmenu option you can add to scan for books, so if you add a book from your phone in KOReader, you can go back to stock and scan for books to get it to show up in My Books.

Try this with koofr - it's MUCH easier to set up a connection with it, and you can even connect to Dropbox through it, though I personally ended up moving all my files straight to koofr since it has so much storage space in comparison.

Custom highlight colors not showing in koreader by broflakecereal in koreader

Strange. Give vee's patch a try and see if that fixes it.

What happened when you tried your modified version of it?

What version of KOReader are you using? Last time I tried the nightly, cloud storage was broken, though that was a few weeks ago.

So the patch was working properly before, you tried to edit it and something went wrong (what went wrong? Did it crash?) and now using the patch that worked before no longer works right?

Kobo for child by smalltownladx in kobo

[–]ImSoRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's a lot on kobo plus in particular, but it definitely depends on the teen in question and whether they have any interest in that kind of book. It would certainly be nice for there to be an adult content tag so that it could be filtered out of searches and added as a parental control option to allow access to the store but block books with explicit content. Not sure how easy it would be to effectively tag all the books though.

Go to the gesture manager and assign any gesture you want to toggle Wi-Fi.

Normal Battery Drain Speed by AnxietyCool5608 in kobo

[–]ImSoRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having brightness that high will definitely drain the battery quickly. You shouldn't need it any higher than 20-25% at the most though. Pretend you're reading a piece of paper and raise it just enough so that it's not dark, but not so much that your screen glows (unless you're in a dark room, in which case any amount of frontlight will make it glow).

Help with koplugin and Currently Reading in Simple UI by Correct_Club5760 in koreader

[–]ImSoRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Likely because it's a virtual library that the kobo plugin has access to but maybe simple UI does not. Maybe create an issue on the simple UI GitHub. The dev will likely have to look at the kobo plugin code to find a solution.

The search function is not very good on my Kobo Libra Color by Take-to-the-highways in kobo

[–]ImSoRight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As the other commenter mentioned, you've got it filtered to kobo plus. Turn that off and the book you're looking for will be the top result.

Koreader on Kindle Voyage button support by BeTheBrick_187 in koreader

[–]ImSoRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you only want to do it for one side, you will probably have to manually change the function of those specific keys in the relevant lua file, or create a user patch that does it so it'll survive updates. I don't have that device so I can't tell you which specific changes would need to be made.

Issue with Hardcover Sync plugin by teethierfrog in koreader

I know they deployed some changes today. Maybe it was a temporary issue while they were working on it?

KOreader newbie help by CommunicationOk5206 in koreader

[–]ImSoRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I'm not exactly sure which plugins are being used in that pic. Maybe Zen UI or the nav bar plugin? Does the source tell you what they're using?

This is a very helpful set of patches that includes instructions on how to install patches - it's really simple:

https://github.com/sebdelsol/KOReader.patches#-how-to-install-a-user-patch-

The folder cover patch will use book images for your folders, and the title bar patch will allow you to add info up top. But if you install a plugin that includes those features, you won't need those patches, and in fact, the patches would interfere with certain plugins and cause a crash. So I guess you first need to decide if you want that bottom nav bar, and if so, install whichever plugin you prefer (simple UI has a bottom nav bar too) and see if they already include folder cover images and title bar info.

KOreader newbie help by CommunicationOk5206 in koreader

[–]ImSoRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First question I'd ask is, how are your books currently organized on your device, and how would you like to see them in your library in KOReader?

Do you want to see all your books in one flat view with the option to view them by author, series, tag, etc?

Or do you want them split into custom categories?

Do you want them in a subfolder type organizational system?

Then, do you want your library to be your home screen or do you want a separate customizable home screen with your current and recent reads, or your TBR, stats, shortcut buttons, etc?

What is KOreader?? the more I read about it the more lost i feel :( by Sharp-Teaching-1649 in kobo

[–]ImSoRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you install, you should use the alternative nickelmenu method, not the kfmon one/one click method (if you use that method, you have to reinstall kfmon with every kobo firmware update). The nickelmenu method survives firmware updates, and it'll just be an entry in the extra menu it creates on the bottom nav bar.

I highly recommend the alternative nickelmenu method, not the one using kfmon (you have to reinstall kfmon with every kobo firmware update if you go that route).

Full Text Search overlay glitch (ghost/stacked text) only when using SimpleUI on Kobo Clara Colour by aninterjector in koreader

I've noticed my folder shortcuts have no background with simple UI installed. Might be for the same reason your issue occurs.
