Ok everything works fine. So I should explain better my issues and how I solved it for the few marginal that bought a H2O 1st edition.

Issue: After getting the 3.7.0 image (aug 2014) from here during, registration there was an error after entering password for the wifi connection.


solution (that worked for me):
  • burn img 3.7.0 (aug 2014 version) to internal sd
  • Downlad firmware 3.15.0 kobo 5 here
  • Extract KoboRoot.tgz to .kobo
  • Change KoboReader.sqlite user database value to ["0","0","0","0","0","0",false ,false, false] to avoid registration and autoupdate.
  • Finally reboot.

And now works like a charm.

PS:
Just to mention, I spent a lot of time trying different firmware version that didn't work:
- 4.2.8432
- 4.20.14617
- 4.31.19086
- 4.35.20400
- 4.38.21908
