I purchased my Kobo Arc 7 (Model: T647-KU-BK-K-AU8) on 26th April 2014.
I have never had any problems until now.
I installed an update around 2016 which worked fine.
Just recently, my Kobo said an security update was recommended to be installed, it updated my Kobo and now it is a brick.
I have searched and searched for the Original Firmware to rollback my device, but can't find it anywhere?
I did a Factory reset, the device updated, now the keyboard wont work?
Also, in most of the firmware updates, they say to place the unzipped files in the .kobo directory? I have looked and my device doesn't have a .kobo directory?
