Have you tried the manual factory reset procedure?

Kobo Clara HD reset steps
  • Connect your eReader to a power source by doing one of the following:
    Turn on your computer and connect the included USB power cord to your computer first, and then your eReader.
    Plug the wall charger (not included) to a power outlet, and then connect your eReader to the wall charger.
    Charge your eReader for at least 1 hour.
  • Press and hold the power button until you see the words “Powered off” on the screen and until the power light turns off. If you don't see anything, continue to hold the button for 30 seconds.
  • Release the power button.
  • Hold down the power button.
  • The power light will remain on. Once the power light turns off, release the power button.
  • Your eReader will start the factory reset process. You should see a black screen that tells you the eReader is resetting. Do not turn off your eReader during this process.

I would recommend using the script in the 2nd message in the One-Click Install Packages for KOReader & Plato thread to install Plato and/or KOReader since the script will set the exclusions in the Kobo eReader.conf file so you don't see all the graphics and text files from the install.

If the manual reset doesn't work for you, please post here and I will send you the link to the firmware image.
