Hi,
I have a Kobo Clara HD which got jammed during a hard car break, but does not seem to have ant physical damage.
The reader was put in sleep mode before that and display is showing last book, page# and Sleeping. Bottom left shows some light stripes, but these cannot be felt on the glass.
The reader is not responding to anything, but when applying power and pushing the power button showed a screen glow (backlight I assume), when pushed again it went off.
When pushing longer the light started blinking white the turned solid, later went off, but nothing happens on the screen.
I opened up the reader and reinserted the power and flatcables, no change.
Also removed and read the SD card on a windows PC, I was able to copy all books, so that seems to be OK, tho I can't speak for the firmware image....
Reinserted the SD also no joy.
Please note there were no water protective blobs so that makes t easier for fixing.
Is there another layer under the top screen that could be damaged?
Or should I try to rewrite the image to the SD card?
If the latter then please send link for image and instructions to write it.
This is for a Kobo Clara HD (N249).
Any help would be appreciated
I tried short reset of 20 seconds and later the long reset off 60 seconds but still nothing happens.
Thanks, Jaap

That sounds as if the display substrate has been damaged. An eInk screen has multiple very thin layers. It's unlikely that a firmware image will help but I will send one anyways.

Kobo N647 still not working

Hi,
thank you for the image. Following your instructions from 08-23-2023, I cloned the image onto the card. However, when I start it up it looks like it's booting, but then it blinks twice and that's it. Also, the Computer does not see it.
Any advice?

Thanks

One quick check on the USB connection which works if your computer beeps when an USB device connects is to plug your N647 and power it on. If you hear a beep, that suggests the pre-boot code has enabled/disabled USB. Did you use a new µSD card? If not you may want to try one. Otherwise, you are likely to be having a hardware issue which is not going to be worth fixing.
