Exclamation Kobo Clara HD N249 stuck after update - SD image needed

Hi,
my Kobo Clara HD N249 became stuck after a firmware update and now freezes on the factory reset screen with the circular arrows and three dots.

I’m planning to replace/reflash the internal microSD. Could someone please send me a clean SD image for the Kobo Clara HD N249, preferably from a stable firmware version?

Thanks!

Hello! May I please request the SD card image for a Kobo Libra 2. This is model number N418, with the 37NB-E70K1M+6F0 (Rev F) motherboard. Thank you for your help!

Hello, my Kobo Clara HD (N249) original card is corrupted.
Could anyone send me a link to the image file?
My baseboard version is 37NB-E60K00+4A4.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

My Kobo Clara HD N249 (I do not not know if it is the Rev B or not; how can I know?) is dead. And it's back to life since I deployed an image to a new SD card, but it appears the image I found was not purely of a Kobo Clare HD, but of a "transformed" Clara HD with XCSoar functionality ^^'

Could you please send me the corresponding image files? Ideally for "basic" and Rev B versions, so if the first fail I will use the second

Thank you a lot in advance!

And out of curiosity, is there a reason why there is no "self service"? I am in advance very thankful to the person who will send me a PM, but I see the 543 pages of requests and I feel like it is a lot of work that could be easier with just a page of links ^^

PS: on the mother board is written 37NB-E60K00+4A4 if it helps to distinguish Rev B or not Rev B

I'm not DNSB (or the late David for who started this) but rational is that the f/w is protected by copyright and this is the best means of avoiding claims of copyright infringement.

Mmmmh... Not being sued is probably what you'd call a good reason. ^^

The Rev B I've seen ended in +4B0. The middle letter in that +number-letter-number combo is what we use for the revision.

Pretty much what David Forrester told me when I asked the same question—avoiding the notice of the legal community is generally considered a good thing. While part of the software in the image is open source (Linux, etc.), the other part of the software is copyright by Kobo and others.

Add me to the list of people missing him. So many of the utilities for Kobo ereaders still have his fingerprints all over them.
