Hi Mobileread Forums,

great to find this place still alive, my last visit dates back to 2013 when I bought my Aura HD and found all the nifty hacks to get the best from the device from here. Especially the black and white inverter was a game changer.

So the device has served me well for ten years now, but as you can probably guess from me posting in this thread - I managed to brick it yesterday. Battery was empty, connected it to my PC to upload a book which I did after it booted. Transfer complete, disconnected USB and of course the battery ran out during the rescan. Tried everything mentioned here to no avail.

Device is already disassembled and I have the microSD in a cardreader connected to my PC. I'd be very thankful if you could hook me up with the SD-Card image and flashing instructions. Linux tools are available.


Best regards and huge thanks to the community here for keeping the place vivid.
