				Kobo firmware page issues
			 
			
			
			Recently, there's been various issues from Kobo's side with my firmware download page. I've created this thread to record and discuss them.

			Firmware API is returning no update, even for requests from actual devices. I have updated the table to use the last known version if no updates are available. 2024-01-28 (FIXED) Firmware downloads via the Kobo CDN are failing intermittently after downloading ~30 MiB at a time after a long delay. I have created a mirror of Kobo firmware files for now. Mirror links are also available under "Other Versions". Last updated 2024-02-29. Last edited by geek1011; 03-02-2024 at 09:49 AM.  |

			I just chatted with Kobo Support about this, and they are aware of the issue with the Firmware API and are apparently looking into this already...

			That explains some of the issues I had after doing a factory reset yesterday.

			Kobo seems to have fixed both of these issues.
