Hello all,
My Kobo N289 seems to be experiencing the same issue as the others (no books found) after the update to 1.9.11.

Could someone please provide the link to the old firmware ?

Thanks in advance

Hi, I'm also having lots of problems with my ereader on v1.9.11, and now I think I've managed to completely brick it. Could I get a copy of the firmware image for N647 please? Thanks a lot!

I was asked by my friend to help her with her E-reader (Kobo N647). It looks like we have the same problem like you (Books not found, firmware v 1.9.11). Could you be so kind and sent me a copy of the firmware image, please? Thank you so much for your help!

After sitting unused for about 6 months, my N289 Kobo just got a forced upgrade to 1.9.12.

Surprise surprise ... no internal storage and no books. Every boot it tells me it's updating the software.

I've tried all the combinations of resets, and no joy.

Could somebody PM to me the right image file?

My wife has a N647 model that currently has v1.9 firmware dated March 29, 2011. Does that model run different firmware, and if so, will it get trashed the moment it gets a forced update to 1.9.12?

James, I only have the image file for the N647 model, not the N289 that you have, and I wouldn't recommend flashing the wrong image file to the card. If you want the N647 image file for your wife's Kobo, PM and I'll send it to you, but best best is to not update hers or it will fail as yours did.
