David,
Coming back to share my experience...
Unfortunately it didn't fix the problem
At startup, Aura with old sd card flashed 8 or 9 times before shutting down on its own
At startup with new image (on a new sd card), Aura flashes forever until manually stopped (hammer???)
Both SD Card can be read/written with Linux or OSX
So the best way to fix this problem so far was to go back to the shop with a handfull of bucks... :/
Thanks a lot for your help David

Hi There,

I am hoping someone can also send me the sd image as my aura hd no longer loads.

Thanks!

Dear all,

Seems that my Aura HD is bricked since it no longer loads or establishing startup. Could someone please share a SD image of the Aura HD with me?
Many thanks!

Aura HD frozen
Hi,

My kobo is frozen on a screen with a picture asking to plug it in to the PC. But nothing occurs when I switch it on and off, and when I plug it, it does'nt appear on my computer. I tried a simple reset, a manual factory reset but it does not responds. This is not a problem of battery because I charged it all the night.

Davidfor, please, is it possible for you to send me the image?

Thank you, and good year to everybody!

Pierre (french guy, so, sorry if my english is strange :-) )

Thank you, my kobo is saved!

After the operation, I tried to run my reader before remounting the casing. I discovered that the touch of the screen was no more working. But it reworked once the casing was in place... I imagine that it comes from the IR technology used for the screen?!

To save the image on the microSD card, I only used the sofware indicated somwhere in the discussion about the memory update of the glo:
http://www.alexpage.de/usb-image-tool/download/

It is easy to use, and necessary, because the soft indicated in the original post is no more available.

PM sent. But...

By "hard reset" do you mean a factory reset, or something else. If you haven't done a factory reset using the buttons, I would recommend doing so before opening the device.

Thank You davidfor, it was not the first time you and your posts helped me.

I was playing a lot around with the Reset Hole and the Light and Power switch reset. You are right, after some hours the device managed to start a restoration, without opening.
