I really appreciate all the help. Good karma's coming your way.

UPDATE: I successfully downgraded to 3.12.1 without doing the factory reset. I'll observe if it's stable or if I'd still need to do a reset. So far it's looking good and checking the database via KoboUtilities said the same thing.

Great, but I could only help because people helped me in the past and where just as patience, so thanks to anyone who knows that he/she helped me.

Hi, I'm new. My English is not very good.
My kobo my serial number: n905jnnnnnnnn(n:number)
But in a letter n905c bottom corner.
Current 3.16.0 installed.
3:18 am installing the patch by following the instructions. However, USB is not working. After a while it freezes.

Where I might be doing wrong.
I want to install 3:18. Because I need English-Turkish dictionary

'Pinch to zoom' bug stays one more time.
It's not a time for upgrade for Aura. Again! Still on 12.1 and it seems... forever.

Did you try to sync via wifi? This should update the FW to 3.18.0 (execept your affiliate is RakutenBooks, or maybe some other that I do not know). If this does not work, factory reset your device, and then install 3.18.0.
My Touch also had problems connecting to the pc under FW 3.16.0, it always rebooted (because of sickel).

You can sideload 3.18.0 FW, download Mark 4 from here, and follow the Installation Instructions for Direct Zip Files.

Touch model C is mark 4. Apart from that, he cannot copy the files to the device, if the usb is not working.

If the touch N905C is equipped with a internal SD card that can be removed, he could put the right upgrade on it, insert it back and then perform the upgrade?
(the device has to be opened to do that..)

Oh, yeah...

I've updated the first post of the Direct Links to Kobo Firmware thread.

I'm calling this one: The Very Special Holiday Extravaganza release

"However, USB is not working. After a while it freezes." maybe he tried to updated with Kobo-Desktop and it stuck.

905c is Mark 4, sorry for the mix up.

Also i don't think you can load FW direct to the the internal sd card from pc, the computer wants to format the sd card and you can not open it.

Changed my answer as you changed yours.
When I use the ext3 plugin for windows,I can access the card without no problems and can locate the .kobo directory, the internal card has two partitions, on partition two I can see everything what is in the book,the same as what I would see when connecting to it when it was still in the reader with a filemanager over USB.
So it is not right saying that when you take out the card and place that in a reader that it wants to format it, it doesn't.
