Thanks a lot for your messages.

I have no idea witch firmare it is on it, but I guess you're right DNSB, I understand better why it didn't work...

By default, when put to sleep, my kobo e-reader displayed the seller logo, not the cover of the last book read (that's why my daughter wanted to change it, she could put any image on her old Sony PRST1).

When I'll be able to make it run, I will put attention on the firmware, but, I think I'll not change anything but thanks for the safer way to obtain it Claude_C.

I'm still trying the factory reset. I think I need one or two hands more if I want to add the paperclip procedure to it!!!

If if doesn't work and I need to open the reader, I will follow the instruction given by frostschutz. Am I supposed to download the firmware somewhere to copy it on the microsd card? My old macbookpro isn't very good at this, because it put everywhere invisible files with a name starting with a dot, that makes mischief.
