Hello,

First, please excuse my poor English...

Second, my question. I now have a Kobo Arc (but will still use my "old" Kobo for novels!) and I initialized it 2 days ago. It first applied an update (270 or 280 Mb, I cannot remember exactly), but my device is still running Android 4.0.4.

Since then, the update to JB 4.1.1 has never been proposed and when I go to Parameters | About | Check for update (rough translation from the French UI I'm using), it claims that it is up to date!

Is it normal (maybe Kobo is delaying part of the devices to avoid overloading their server)? If not, what can I do, what can I check? (BTW, normal Internet access, just behind my router I manage with just NAT).

Also, I'm not sure I should update when reading this thread. When it works, what is the best way to do the update? Factory reset then update, update the factory reset?

Thanks!
