My perception was that the fonts showed up darker. I adjusted the font weight adjustment down after 2.5.1.

A way to handle the different countries is to create a second account. Choose what ever address you want there. You can send the books to your main account as gifts. I'm not sure if that is any easier or not. |

On looking closer I found that the publishers, dates and/or the ISBN were different ? Hence different prices for basically the same book ! |

No installation issues with this latest release or its predecessor though my KT did hang during download of FW 2.40.
The only visible thing I noticed on FW 2.50 & FW 2.51 is after the update completes and boots to the home screen but hasn't yet refreshed the home screen to include books on the SD card, there is a small black dot (perhaps it is square). For a moment of panic I though the screen was broken. Chess is still broken, I know it is an unsupported extra but I sure wish they could ‘unbreak’ whatever broke the program. Always seems to crash on Kobo's move (I am not the best chess player, but come on; I know I am not that bad). |

If that doesn't work you would have to use Sigil to add a cover to your book and reload the book into your Kobo. |

![]() It only shows up as a dot untill its done scanning through the external card. Once it's done scanning everything appears as it should, I never noticed the dot before, had me worried for a moment. Anyways, thanks for the tip, it will be usefull when I go to fix a few poorly rendered cover images. |

Everybody, if you have a bug with 2.5.1 or an old bug is still present with this firmware, please read here: Kobo Bug thread

I noticed since 2.5.0 (and yes, I was upgrading as soon as the new version became available) that text in dictionary lookup (popup window) gets cut on the right. English dictionary, side-loaded ePubs. Does not happen always, but it is frequent enough to be annoying.

I'm glad to see there have been some updates during the last few weeks that I was AWOL!
![]() I noticed though that no-one mentioned a certain very important 'bug', not here nor in the 2.5.0 thread: does anyone know if sleeping or switching off the device still causes fast battery drain if the screen is touched [by a cover, sleeve, finger, tissue, whatever] prior to complete screen change? |

Shame about the ugly covers. But wasn't that always the case? I gave up on Kobo making my covers and set Calibre to always send the covers along. |

Probably because although it was a HUGE bug for those that had it, it didn't actually effect that many people. I think you'll have to try for yourself and see if it fixed it for you (hope it did, but I wouldn't hold my breath).
