I'm stuck with the faulty micro-USB port though : it can charge ok but it requires to be put in a certain position. But I can't connect it to my Windows 10 PC : it just doesn't show up in Calibre or in the devices... It says "connected and charging" but that's all. If I disconnect the cable from the PC, it goes back to the home screen. I tried several USB cables, rebooting the ereader or the PC but so far no luck. I had the issue before the white screen problem. Is there any way to sync my Calibre library with the Glo HD through WiFi ? |
But... how did you manage to upgrade the firmware if it couldn't show up in your PC? You did the upgrade manually after extracting the SD card from the Kobo, I guess...?
For books management, you could install
this on your Kobo and SSH on it with PuTTY (if you're running Windows). You could then transfer files on it with SCP and read books again on your Kobo.
Otherwise, you could (that takes a longer time though) open your Kobo and transplant the books directly on the KOBOeReader partition. Or, set up an HTTP server to get the books from your Kobo's web browser.
Good luck
