Hi All,

DNSB kindly sent me a disk image for the Kobo Glo N613, but it's not functional due to the fact that it's not already pre-activated (as in the account) and it also cannot be activated because it's too old for Kobo's server to accept activation for, so I can't get past the setup screen. I was able to use SQlite3 in command prompt to bypass activation and add fake credentials in order to get it up and working again, but this disk image is full of problems. Features are missing, the device cannot power off or sleep (it just reboots) and it does not remember the page I was reading, instead going back to page one every time I go back into the book. All of these things worked perfectly before I ever attempted to upgrade my device and lost the contents of the internal micro sd card and had to re-flash the disk image. And so I was wondering if anyone could share a working image with me?
