Hi, my Kobo Libra 2 has not been able to boot for several months. I did install KOReader on it when I first bought it in 2022 and used it fine for a couple of years. Now, it will only flash the white LED when attempting to boot. I've attempted hard resets many times over the past few months with no success. It will sometimes show an I/O icon with three dots below indicating some kind of progress after a hard reset, but then will just proceed back to a blank screen with the LED flashing again.

I've been afraid of disassembling it, but I finally did it today, and actually removed the micro SD card very easily. The layer of glue was very thin on mine. I can read the SD card fine from my laptop, and was able to recover my books like that.

So I'm requesting an image to flash onto the SD card. Or I may upgrade to a new SD card while it's out.

Thank you guys for all the information here

Nevermind! I cloned the old SD card to a new one, installed it in the kobo, and it booted right up. Started going through the update process, and validating my Kobo account. And I just successfully installed KOReader back on it.

Hi DNSB.

I would kindly like to ask for the firmware image for a Kobo N249 Clara HD. I'm trying to fix the reader my wife uses, that it seems like suddenly got a corrupted micro sd card.

Thank you for your contributions.

Great to hear that you were able to recover your µSD card. If your card is readable, that is my first suggestion since it keeps your serial number, Vcom and waveform information.
