New firmware downloaded but not applied
Hello,
I'm currently using the Kobo Glo (by Fnac, bought in Belgium). The firmware is 2.4.0. Last week, I saw that it did two heavy download and, indeed, when I plug the kobo in my computer, I can see in the .kobo folder, two files:*kobo-update-2.5.0.zip and kobo-update-2.5.1.zip. But, even after multiple reboot, I'm still running the firmware 2.4.0. Any idea on what is happening there? Thanks |

Answering to myself because:*I removed the two zip files from the device and manually hit the sync button.
It then redownloaded then and asked me if I wanted to upgrade. So the fix is easy:*remove the zip files from the device. |

There has been a bug lately in the WiFi download of firmware. It gets to 100% and hangs. Usually trying again will work properly. Though at least one person has had to do it a third time. But I think cleaning up like that was a good idea.
Was there a log file in the .kobo directory? Kobo are looking at this and it might help them. |

I've tried multiple times without success before removing the zip files. Indeed, there was log files but I removed them too, unfortunately.
