Hi. The SD card in my Kobo Clara 2 (N418) has died; my computer doesn't even recognize it. Would it be possible to get an image of the SD card so I can replace it? Thank you very much.

Great to hear your Glo HD is working again. Another Kobo saved from the e-waste bin!

hello new member
purchased a used non functioning kobo clara hd and opened to change the battery and found the sd card is missing
if possible, could someone please message me the appropriate image and sounds like i can use a larger capacity card than the standard 8gb
thank you in advance,
John

I’m writing this to express my gratitude to DNSB. I was having a lot of trouble with my Kobo Glo, but thanks to his kindness and the original microSD image, it’s now working perfectly again. I really appreciate the help. Cheers from Italy!"

Hi, I need a Kobo Clara HD SD card image (N249).
My SD card failed and I cannot clone it.
Can someone share a working image?

Always good to hear that another Kobo has been saved from the recycle bin!

Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone can help me recover my Kobo Touch N905C.
The problem: The device's fonts became corrupted (all text displayed as empty rectangles) and I tried to perform a factory reset. Now the device is stuck on the "Restoring" screen and won't boot.
What I've already done:

Removed the internal microSD card and made a full backup image (1.8GB) using HDD Raw Copy Tool
Inspected the partitions on Linux (Ubuntu Live USB)
Confirmed the rootfs (256MB EXT4) partition is empty — only contains lost+found
The recoveryfs (256MB EXT4) partition is intact, with a populated /upgrade folder containing fs.tgz, db.tgz and the ntx508 bootloader files
Tried to extract /upgrade/fs.tgz from recoveryfs into rootfs using tar -xvzf, but the extraction failed midway with the error: gzip: invalid compressed data--format violated
Confirmed the corruption with gunzip -t — the fs.tgz file itself is damaged

So the system can't self-restore because the recovery archive is corrupted.
My device:

FCC ID: NOIKBN905C
Model: N905C
Serial number: not legible on the back of the device

Could anyone with a working Kobo Touch N905C kindly share a "virgin" SD card image (or just an intact fs.tgz file from the recoveryfs/upgrade folder) via PM? I would be deeply grateful.
I have my own backup image safe in case I need to revert.
Thank you so much in advance!
