I have one important question
As a new card did You use SDXC or SDHC?

DNSB · 09-18-2025, 12:59 PM

For the most part, I've used SDHC (up to 32GB). In my Clara HD, I installed a 128GB SDXC card and it worked. The only issue I ran into was when I placed so many ebooks on the Clara HD, that the database size became too large to be kept in memory which slowed searches and other database activities down.

i succesfully fixed the kobo, but now it is in an update loop. It keeps downloading updates, and again and again... is there anything i can do , to fix this problem?

I tried to put serial number into image that I get and used HxD for that
I delete the 000000000 from line 200 and enter the serial from my kobo
After that save the changes
But when I try to save that image on SD card I have error: A write error occured during processing
Is there any other possibility to put my correct serial number into the image?

Try to ask for img for Your Kobo here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=355778
Put out Your old SD, buy new one and save the image that You get on the new SD

Does the write work without trying to change the serial number? Otherwise, it sounds like an issue with the µSD card you are trying to write to. You may want to try re-formatting it with the SD Memory Card Formatter for Windows/Mac.

Did you use the original or a new SD card?

Did you download the correct zip file, expand it and then copy ALL the contents to the Kobo (ie the upgrade folder, the KoboRoot.tgz fileand the manifest.md5sum) (meaning you should see in the .kobo folder on the device the upgrade folder along with the KoboRoot.tgz and the manifest.md5sum file).

The SD is fine because when I use the IMG from You there is not occur any error
The error Is only when I change the serial

That makes me think you're not changing the correct location.
