Glo Firmware upgrade

gorgamel · 10-30-2014, 04:08 PM

Hallo everybody.
Last my automatic upgrade of Kobo Glo (N613) is 3.1.0. Since then searching for upgrade neither with device nor with Kobo Desktop is successfull. No new firmware has been found

Could anyone help? Should I perform ugrade manually? If so, how to do it?

Thanks for any help.

Is the device is successfully syncing to the Kobo server? And what affiliate is is in the ".kobo/affilate.conf" file? Some, such as Rakutan, don't allow all the firmware versions. Changing this to Kobo, will usually fix this.

And to do a manual upgrade, see https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=185660. That has links to the firmware and instructions in the first few posts.

Thanks so much. It almost worked, still after changing RakutenIchiba to Kobo, I have now 3.8.0 version. Why not 3.11.0?

Try changing it to read affiliate=BestBuyCA. That now gets me the newest firmware always on the day of release.
