Before I installed NickelMenu I anticipated having both the patch and NickelMenu trying to do the same thing may cause problems, so I didn't give them the chance.

My ClaraHD works as intended with your miniclock.cfg. The old patch is disabled and my .conf file has one entry for InvertScreen and it's in the [FeatureSettings] section.

Very strange. I too have just a single InvertScreen entry and it is within FeatureSettings.

Hmm.

Not that it should really matter on a Clara, but, which FW version are you running?

I'd double-check that you're actually running the latest build from #311.

Enabling & checking the debug log might also be helpful.

It is working. I have uninstalled and then reinstalled MiniClock and everything is as it should be. I have no idea why.

Thank you for your help @jackie_w and @NiLuJe.

NiLuJe · 06-05-2020, 12:47 PM

Eh, I've seen weirder

.

(I don't recall if I ever had a bug in the nightmode handling at one point in time, but it's not entirely out of the realm of possibilities

).

NiLuJe · 06-05-2020, 01:47 PM

Okay, minor update in #311.

This one ought to allow nightmode shenanigans on the Aura, provided you're running a recent enough FW (which, apparently means >= 4.2, so, that's probably going to be a "yes" ^^).

(CC @jamalau

).

Also made various minor tweaks, in particular around the battery gauge checks, so, eh.

(I also stopped renaming the KoboRoot tarball itself, only the ZIP has a suffix now).

@jackie_w Many thanks, after i´ve changed overlay=1 to 0, Miniclock works well!
@NiLuJe I have tryed your new version, and it works tow, also with overlay=1!

Mine has been working perfectly for more than a year. But in the last month it ONLY comes on if i touch the screen. What have i inadvertently screwed up?

I have a Forma.

I have a Forma.

did you upgrade the firmware recently? Because you'd need to re-apply the patch for the Forma to use the buttons. Note if you -also- upgrade the display time mod you may also need to tweak the config settings. There should be a few options to tell the mod which events trigger the clock to update.

My guess would be firmware though.

Ah yep updated firmware - has survived all previous upgrades though.

Which patch needs updating?

It still works but only comes on when i touch the screen.

NiLuJe · 06-08-2020, 12:25 AM

@poczynek: That one, as explained in the config.

Apologies. Long boring story. Forma auto updated to newest firmware as i left Wifi on (when normally i have it off). Thus no patch. Then eventually have now patched and works all fine again. Thanks again!

Hello, i have a problem, every day , when i look in my. kobo folder, i found some files like this, dmesg_1592508599.log, is this a debug.log from miniclock, or am i wrong?
debug=0 in minclock config!
All the Files have 0 Bytes!

That means you have developers mode turned on. There will also be a syslog file. Turning developer mode off will prevent them being created. But, will also take away whatever function in the developer mode that you wanted to use.

I just got my Libra and I was wondering about this.
