Simple answer is no. There is no sd card in the device which can be removed and overwritten

PM sent. And don't forget to tell us how it goes. There have been very few reports of this working, so it would be interesting to know if it still does or needs any tricks.

Hallo, h2o img failed. Kobo boots and there is a choice of language, but when I choose a language, nothing happens again. Sometimes there are also critical errors, Factory reset your eReader. When I confirm that nothing is happening. Please send me other Aura IMG. Maybe Aura HD or others. Thanks in advance

I don't think that there is any point in trying other images. Hardware wise, the Aura H2O is the device that is closest to the Aura. If the Aura won't boot using that, then it is not likely to boot using the other images.

Maybe one of the people who have actually done this a can chime in with information on what is needed.

Hello,

I have Kobo Aura HD e-reader. I updated it few days ago and since then it doesn't work.
I want to restore it with external micro SD card
Would someone do still have disk image of it?

Thanks a lot

PM sent.

But, for anyone finding this, please use one of the dedicated image request threads. See Index of Firmware Request Threads for the list.

Hello,

Thank you very much davidfor for sending the file. I installed it but kobo doesn't boot, I think also I broke the screen when disassembling it, it becomes striated.
I bought it five years ago and I used it almost every day about 1-2 hours, so I think it is time to buy another one

Thank you for your help

Hello,

meanwhile I managed to get my kobo working ) I am so glad.
Finally, I kept the old micro card and I try to press light bottom and power bottom until getting light flashing very quickly. After many trials I get restoring screen and then factory reset screen. I turn on kobo and follow steps on the screen and then connect it to my laptop, it is now detected and I upgrade it using desktop.

But the screen is damaged.

I found https://fr.aliexpress.com/ which sells kobo screens but I not sure it is reliable

Would any one have an idea about this seller?

Thanks

Hello everyone,
I used Aura (N514) as my navigation device (XCSoar) generally, so in boot mode I had these options:
Nickei | XCSoar | System
to use Aura as ebook I had to enter Nickei
Once I decided to upload new files, so I connected it to my Mac, though It didn't recognize device well, so I tried another method - System -> OTG Enable
I received a notification window that this feature was never tested on Aura (only on kobo mini and some others)
Of course I pressed YES
Of course I have a bricked Kobo Aura now %)

Nothing from mentioned methods how to manually reset are working, the device is fully charged, I tried:
1) pushing power for more than 30 sec,
2) holding light then repeately pushing power with different speed, delay, etc
3) holding light then pushing reset repeately
4) holding everything pushing everything the whole day and so on

The only reaction of my kobo is turning on - orange indicator in the right corner lights for2-3 seconds then screen goes black, then white again. No symbol or any other sigh since OTG button

Unfortunately my device has built in memory chip, so no sd card replacement is possible.
As far as I understood reading through the forum, I can try to upload kobo aura h2o image to my sd card and somehow make kobo read it.

Anyone please advice

@byob: I have sent you a PM with the link to the Aura H2O image. I don't remember any recent reports of this working. Hopefully it will work for you.

Hey do you happen to have a backup of the microSD for Kobo Aura HD...
Mine is corrupted and can't use it anymore
