yes it is possible to sideload books, the easiest way is to use Calibre, format to MOBI and remove [docs] when formating. (this puts it in the docs folder but shows up in books)
then just upload to device as normal.
with the new 6.2.1 update sideloaded covers do not show up on the carousel for some reason...continuing problem but at least now we can delete them so blank spots aren't showing up
They are purchasing them from official retail outlets because to do otherwise would be wrong and illegal and bad and a not good thing and thus not for proper discussion in polite company.How are you guys getting your books?
This.
When I first loaded MOBIs onto my KF, half my books would show up in the docs folder. So I ended up reconverting them and taking out the [PDOC] tags and they all transferred fine.
And what do you mean sideloaded covers don't show up in the carousel? I updated the metadata in Calibre and added the covers that way and they work everywhere including the carousel.
