If you have your books on an external uSD card, your sideloaded books, calibre's files and other content on it would not be affected and your Glo should have re-imported your books after the factory reset or logout/login.

If you are discussing removing the KoboReader.sqlite file from inside the .kobo directory? I've never bothered to do that since the logout/login or factory reset both give you a clean database.

It's the KoboReader.sqlite file I was discussing, as I wrote this database was not cleaned up by the factory reset.

• Power off your eReader. Try holding the power button to the right for 30 seconds
• Press and hold the light button.
• While holding the light button, slide the power button to the right to turn on your eReader. It may take a couple of tries.
• Keep holding the light button until the power light blinks rapidly (discoing).
• Release the light button.
• You should see a Restoring message on the screen

Good luck!

I described the factory reset and its effect (or lack of) in my original message.

The two I would recommend would be the Memory Upgrade Mod Guide (With Pictures) thread and the Kobo Glo: Need SD card image thread.

I'm really pressed by the time and not really able to decrypt the various operations you point there.

Thank you for your time.
