I realize I am late to the party but hopefully my message will get an answer :-)
I bought an older Kobo Touch with the intent to install Android on it to use as an all in one ebook reader for both Kobo Kindle and PDF files. I also have a Kindle and a Kobo Glo but was looking for an all in one device. I have read each post here with great interest but there are still a few missing pices. 1. The links to the downloads no longer work - I was only able to find 2013-11-23 Touch version and Android Touch eSD version. Neither of these worked on my device n905b The first one the touch did not work The second one was stuck in a boot loop None of the links for better (newer) versions work anymore. Can some one point them to me or reupload them for us? 2. I know where to find APK's for older versions of software but has anyone made a list of useful titles that work? Thanks! newbie nostalgiacafe |

As the info says, the 2013-11-23 image is for the N905C. I don't remember the specifics, but to convert it for N905B, I think that you need to follow these instructions (as the info says). This image for dual boot also works (don't know for what model it is, you have to check it out) The only one that does not work, is the one I never had, so unfortunately I can't upload it Quote:
I don't believe much changed, since the android version is really old and not many more apps support it any more.. |

Hey embryo,
I'm especially late to the party, but would still like to get hold of some images for the Kobo Glo. Now most links hosted on multifilemirror.com are not accessible anymore as that service went down in the last year or so, it seems. Could you please provide updated links so people can still try out these android builds? :-) I'm interested in the latest builds with most fixes and features available for a dualboot-setup. So something like the "newer" or "modified" MarekGibek-images would be nice! Idk if these images are available elsewhere as I think these were modified by you!? Thank you very much in advance! |

@e_d_n_a,
I'll have to check if there is a backup of these images. I'm pretty sure that I have the Glo ones, but maybe others exist too. Then I have to find a free uploader (or multi-uploader) that can do the work. Any suggestion is appreciated. |

@embryo,
Thanks for considering a reupload. I'm no export for file sharing services, but I looked up some recommendations here: https://www.guru99.com/file-sharing-sites.html [15 recs] https://www.hostingadvice.com/how-to...ting-services/ [8 recs] https://electrons.co/best-multiple-f...mirror-upload/ https://www.raymond.cc/blog/22-must-...or-your-files/ [6yo] So good hosts with long file retention (most have only 30 days) would be: https://mega.nz/ [no expiration!?] https://sabercathost.com/ [no expiration!?] https://www.mediafire.com/ [8m retention] https://www.4shared.com/ [6m retention] https://depositfiles.com/ [90d retention] etc. And for multi-uploaders these should be fine: https://www.multiup.org/ https://mirrorace.com/ https://www.mirrored.to/ Looking forward to your uploads! :-) P.S.: MFM apparently already went down in May 2021! :O https://twitter.com/multifilemirror/...05650609254402 |

Thank you for the suggestions.
Most of the images are re-uploaded to Mega, and hopefully they will last more than people's interest for them.. |

Launch at startup
I would like to run a command / script after boot up.
Any suggestions on how to achieve in the simples way (not depending on a third party app or something). |
