Dear Ankan
I also have N905B and the same bual boot problem. I remember I tried several images but could not solve the problem. I would appreciate it very much, if you could let me know which image you used to solve this problme.
Dear embryo
I need your help again. I have also a Kobo Glo with this dual boot system working very well except for the following strange phenomena. I have a collection of Japanese books with Japanese file names. These file names are in utf8 format.
When the folder of these books is copied from my PC to my Kobo, the file names are shown with any Android file managers properly in Japanese. But once the Kobo is restarted these files are shown with ?????? replacing all Japanese charactors, making it impossible to see what books they are.
If I connect the Kobo to the PC and disconnect it without doing anything, then the file names are shown properly again in Japanese untill I restart the Kobo.
This problem does not exit with the Kobo Glo with the single Androd boot system for which I used the image Marek uploaded in the Android on Glo thread;

I tried to use this image for the dual boot but it did not work and thus used the image you have in your dual boot instruction.
I have no problem with these file names on other Androd tablets and a phone with Android version 4 and newer. I spent whole yesterday to solve this problem but in vain.
I changed the access attribute of the folder, leaving only owner R ON, making all other RWX OFF, while the file names are shown OK. But after the restart, all these attributes are ON and the files names are shown incorrectly. I zipped the folder on the PC and transfered it to the Kobo. I can open the zipped folder with proper Japanese file names even after restart. These give me the impression that Kobo Androd sytem for dual boot changes the file name charactor code from Unicode 8 to say, Sift JIS code, when restarted.
I found an aritcle saying that this may have something to do with nls_utf8.ko and nls_cp437.ko and loaded these modules using ther module loader after restart. This loading sometimes restored the file names to proper display but not alway. The most stable solution is to connect the Kobe to the PC and disconnect it. But this is cumbersome. I really like the flexibility of this dual boot system and want to stay with it and hope someone can help me to solve this problem.
