Hi,
Is there a way to use 3.19.* firmwares without a Kobo account? The old method with manually inserting some arbitrary user data into KoboReader.sqlite does not work anymore. A "Critical Error" dialog appears on Nickel startup saying "Your eReader hasn't synchronized with the server yet. Any highlights, notes, or reading progress you've made on the device will be lost." After pressing the "Sign out" button the whole .kobo directory is deleted.
Seems like Nickel is doing some stricter checks on the registration data now. I tried to insert the real eth0 MAC address of my Kobo into the ___DeviceID column, also used proper UUIDs for UserID and UserKey, but it didn't work. Does anybody know how to generate user data to make 3.19+ firmwares happy?
