And to get the support for new devices, there is usually evidence for any new devices in the firmware well before the device is released. Though they do tend to keep the name hidden. |

Yes. I am intending this thread to be the main compilation of my findings, and it will end up with quite a bit more info when I have enough time to type it all up.

Really? I barely see the point as you can't download. And, frequent checking is fairly pointless as the releases are to far apart.

I am pretty sure they will, as now looking back through my analytics, I see a h2o2 user visit only 2 days after it was released. And yes, you are right about the last point, but it's nice to be sure. |

And it seems to have CPU of "mx6sll". tshering raised a concern about this late last year, but at the time it looked like it was for the next device. But, maybe Kobo snuck out a hardware revision without anyone noticing. Or I'm completely misinterpreting this - very likely. Last edited by davidfor; 04-03-2018 at 08:16 PM. Reason: Fix link |

BTW, I'm working on a rewrite of my firmware downloader. It will load faster, be a lot shorter, and be easier for me to maintain and extend. Most of the improvements will be behind the scenes, except for a new design (which will be easier to read), and the kobo detection. |

It looks like the Clara HD will be 380. The Aura H2O Edition 2 Edition 2 is 378 and the Aura Edition 2 Edition 2 is 379. And 376 is eliminated for other reasons. That might change when the official firmware is released, but that's what it looks like now..

You can try by pasting the following js into the console in my firmware downloader page: Code:
devices=devices.concat([378,379,380].map(id=>["00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000"+id.toString(),id.toString(),"unknown"]));getVersions() |

If I use: Code:
https://api.kobobooks.com/1.0/UpgradeCheck/Device/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000375/Kobo/3.2.1/N000000000000 Code:
<UpgradeCheckResult> <Data i:nil="true"/> <ReleaseNoteURL i:nil="true"/> <UpgradeType>None</UpgradeType> <UpgradeURL i:nil="true"/> </UpgradeCheckResult> Of course, Kobo has to define the rules for an update. That is made up of a combination of the id, the affiliate, the supplied version number and the serial number. Plus maybe some other things. The response indicates that for the supplied parameters, there is no update available. Maybe there is a combination for these devices that will give an update, but it will probably be for a specific serial number that Kobo is using for testing. The firmware that cvarrick has on his device, v4.6.10197, is almost definitely the factory supplied firmware and is what will be installed if you do a factory reset. These have never been available as a downloadable update. And no update available for id 380 also makes sense as the device isn't available to anyone. These will probably come with a 4.7.x firmware that hasn't been released for download to anyone. Or it could be 4.6.10197. There will an update available for these devices on the day that people should be receiving them. It will probably be 4.8.x. It might be out earlier so that the reviewers get an update. But, in that case, Kobo might restrict the update to the serial numbers of the devices they send to the reviewers. If there is a release for the reviewers, I would expect that there would be another update for the release date. |
