NickelMenu: An integrated launcher for Kobo eReaders - Page 106

Lbot6429 · Today, 03:23 PM

Hi, I'm hoping someone here can save me.

I had Koreader all set up perfectly. I made the mistake of exiting Koreader after connecting an 8bitDo via Bluetooth which removed my nickelmenu button.

I tried dropping koboroots.tgz back into the .Kobo file and rebooting - nothing.

Tried a factory reset, nothing.

I've tried so many different ways of the above and still can't get it back. I'm gutted 😭

You may want to try either a manual factory reset or enabling Developer mode (in the search box, type devmodeon and then search). You should then see in More => Settings => Device information => Developer options. Under Developer options near of the bottom of the entries, you will find Factory reset your eReader.

Here's the link for the Manual reset Kobo Libra Colour procedure.

Either of these will wipe your Kobo back to the factory firmware version removing all user information.
