Setting up a Kobo Libra Color

• Bypass the login and analytics systems by injecting in to SQLite database
• Install NickelMenu to start custom software
• Install KoReader proper to read books; add menu item for NickelMenu
• Install SyncThing plugin for comfy over-the-air sync

Enjoy.

You probably won't be using Calibre's sync functions if you use SyncThing. On an up note this will carry metadata and books between devices. So any exported reader notes will end up back on your laptop, and tablets, if that's your thing.

Note that progress sync is janky. You have to actually close a book on a device to force the data to write. Then syncthing has to pick up the metadata folder and push it. Its not seamless, and you can lose progress/notes if you are too quick about things.
