I accidentally reseted my Kobo Aura.
I believe its running with FW: 4.19
Now I'm stucked in the wifi connection setup and USB desktop setup that doesn't work.
I've tried placing the new firmware as .kobo on my external sdcard. But It doesn't update.

Any suggestion how to recover it?
Thanks in advance.
What I did with my Kobo Mini was to tell Setup to use Kobo Reader for registration (which doesn't work), but gave me access to the Mini, then I copied the newest compatible software to the root directory (via USB from my Linux computer). And then I rebooted the Mini and it updated. (I think it was root where I put the update files... wherever you normally put the firmware when upgrading manually — it's been a while since I've done it.)
