Hi! Can you please share the Kobo image with me? I think the internal SD died, so I will flash a new SD.

Hi davidfor !

Can you also send me the Kobo Glo image ? My Glo doesn't react, only sometimes the led when I try to reset / keep some buttons pressed.

Moreover, I don't have anything in the "Kobo" partition, is that normal ?

Thank you

PM sent. But...

If you are connecting the Glo to a computer, then you should be able to see things in the "KoboReader" partition. That's where the books go. At the least, there should be a ".kobo" directory. But, by default, that will be hidden if you are connecting to a Mac or Unix machine. If this directory is missing, the device should restart and take you through the setup when you disconnect from the computer.

Before opening the device, I would suggest doing a manual factory reset. See https://www.kobo.com/help/en-US/arti...cts=Kobo%20Glo for instructions. If that doesn't work, then use the image.

@davidfor Do you have a list of all the different reset methods for the different devices? Would there be any benefit in your mind of adding them to the Wiki?

I don't have a written list, I just remember them each time I need them. Or at least remember which devices have only one button and hence need the "tap the corners" method. Or I do a search here to find it. The two new devices have a different method, and I haven't committed these to memory yet (Which suggests there have been relatively few factory resets needed when people couldn't get to the settings).

Kobo have cleaned up their pages sometime in the last six months or so. The link I gave above was the first link google showed when I searched for "kobo glo factory reset". And the page is readable and complete. The differences in my instructions are that charging is the first step and to force the power off.

But, I think a factory reset page would be a good idea. It could be just a set of links to the Kobo pages, but I'd prefer the full instructions for each set of devices.
