Do you mean the "Beta Features" page of the settings? If so, only the browser is available on the Aura ONE. With the earlier firmware, you could start some of them and use them, but with the change in the homepage, you there is no way to do this.

First of all sorry for opening a new thread... I am using a tablet and did it by mistake.
Secondly, yes i have the KA1, updated to the latest firmware and the only thing being displayed in the beta tab is the browser. Could/should i roll it back to an earlier (which one?) firmware so that i can have chess etc. or is there any other way to have access to that content? I just got the device and do not have any access/option to the overdrive app as well. Should it be also displayed in the beta features tab? |

Rolling back will not help if you want Chess. That has not been on any of the Kobo devices for a while. It stopped working a long time ago.
For the rest of the beta features, none of the newer devices have anything other than the browser on the list. This started with the Glo HD. Kobo does not offer these games to the Aura ONE. Changing firmware won't change that. But, most of the games could be started by adding an entry to the database that added a tile to the home screen. Tapping that would start the game. Kobo has changed the home screen and this is no longer possible. You can go back to firmware with the tiled home screen, but that will mean you are stuck there with no chance seeing new features or bug fixes. |
