Hello David,

Could you send me a link to the Kobo Aura HD image? I think I've got a bricked device.

Thanks,
Eric

Bricked Aura HD
Hi,

As many others in here since 2014, my Aura HD is bricked, and upon checking the internal sd card, it appears to be corrupt. Could anyone provide me with an image?

Many thanks!

Just curious as to how you determined the SD card was corrupt?

I plugged it in, and when I tried to delete files, or extract a compressed file, linux said it was corrupt.

Ok. I'd just wanted to make sure you hadn't tried using a Windows PC to validate the SD card

Thank you. However, the rootfs partition of the extracted img file seems corrupt.. I run `e2fsck -f AuraHD.img` and it found "Bad magic number in super-block", and it can't mount rootfs..

Sorry, I don't know. The image was given to me by someone who took it from the SD card in their Aura HD. I have supplied it to a lot of people with no complaints. But, I'm not sure that running e2fsck against the image file makes sense. It is full card, so it has the partition table, three partitions (one is FAT32) plus everything else. I think you would need to unpack it first for that to make sense.

I would suggest writing the image to the an SD card and trying it. If it fails, ten try a factory reset using the buttons. One of the things done during a factory reset is to format the root partition. That should clear it up.
