Kobo Mini N705

Hi everyone,

Newbie here on the forum
I tried to revive a Kobo Mini with a clean and new battery, and succeeded.
I even managed to get it to the 4.38.23429.
However when trying to "upgrade" the SD card to a bigger one I overwrote the wrong card image.
I tried various tools, like partition magic but it's gone.
This seems to be the place where crashed dreams are revived.

Does any one have a copy of the Kobo Mini N705 SD card image for me?
Thank you very kindly for your responses.

Erwin

Hello I don't know which of the Kobo Clara HD images I need so I guess I am requesting both:
Kobo N249 Clara HD
Kobo N249 Clara HD Rev B
Thanks

Hello, my partner just dropped a Touch 905C, reset did not help. I have the back off, so thinking to reflash the SD card and see if that fixes things. If someone could please send me a standard disk image, that would be fantastic.

Hi!
I think my Kobo N306 Nia is bricked, is it possible to have an SD image ? I try to copy the folder that was in the Kobo on a new formated SD card but it doesn't work.
Thanks for your help!

I followed the guide as provided and instant success, and even have 16GB now.
All achieved, new battery, latest possible firmware and more storage.

I hate e-waste and this little kobo is another example that old hardware does not mean obsolete.
This will make a nice gift as it's small and compact, yet store someone's complete back catalogue of books.

Many thanks again

Hello everyone. I have some issues with my Kobo Clara HD, either it doesn't want to boot or, when it does, it shows the three not-very-promising dots and stays forever like that. I think i need to reimage a new SD card.

Could anyone provide me the image?

Thank you very much in advance!
