Hello,
Happy new year everyone. Recently I just reboot my Clara HD which haven't boot for a while but it cannot boot again, stuck in reset, but nothing to do.
Put the SD in the computer and it's dead.
Could you send me an image please ?
Lot of thanks

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a full SD card image (.img) for the Kobo Clara HD, model N249.

Unfortunately, I formatted the internal SD card by mistake, so the device no longer boots.
I already tried reinstalling the firmware using KoboRoot.tgz, but I understand now that I need a complete SD image to restore the bootloader and partitions.

My device is a Kobo Clara HD manufactured around July 2019.

If anyone could share the correct SD image, or point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it.
Of course, I understand if it needs to be shared privately.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi everyone,

I would like to request a firmware / microSD recovery image for Kobo Libra 2 Model number N418

My device is out of warranty and got stuck after an improper USB disconnect.
The current state is: white screen (no UI), LED keeps blinking (sometimes steady then blinking again) and manual factory reset does not start (page button + power never triggers the screen flash)
In addition, the reader is not detected by any PC (tried different cables/ports/computers)

I’m trying to re-image the internal microSD (or clone to a new microSD) to recover the device.
Any recent/working image for N418 would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much!

Hello, and happy new year to all.
Can I please request a Kobo Aura N236 image ? I saw in your intro post that those models had 2 versions (1 and 2), i am not sure how to determine which one is mine.

Thanks
