- Close the Kobo application
- Open the disk for the device
- Go to the ".kobo" directory
- Remove the "upgrade" folder and the files "manifest.md5sum" "KoboRoot.tgz".
- Unpack the 2.4.0 firmware zip file
- Copy the contents to the ".kobo" directory of the device
- Eject the device
The device should restart and install 2.4.0.

Hi!
Thanks for the replies! When I upgraded to 3.X.X, there was no "upgrade" folder, nor a "manifest.md5sum" file. I overwrote the "KoboRoot.tgz" file and added both the upgrade folder and "manifest.md5sum", but it when I powered on it put it into a perpetual "powering on" loop.
I went form 1.9.6 to 3.x.x but didn't see those folders.
I'll have to look into sqlite, but that looks a bit more complex than I can usually manage.
