Error in interface language. Support don´t fix it.
Hello to all the community.
I bought a kobo H2O Aura edition 2 (Firmware 4.6.9995) a few days ago, and in one of the texts on the index page, a translation error appears in Spanish. Appears LIBRI and the correct traslation is LIBROS I restore the kobo, change to other languages, etc... but in support don´t fix the problem, only they ask me more and more data of the firmware version, where is locate the error, etc. I have read in the forum how to modify the kobo software, and although I have knowledge in Linux Computers I do not understand how to access the interface language to fix it. It is a great e-reader, but I do not understand these errors and they do not solve it. Thank you for your support. |

It's a wrong translation, contact Kobo and tell them of the problem, and hopefully they will fix it in the next firmware release.
A way to fix it is by changing the translation file see Adding new interface languages. Last edited by oren64; 11-30-2017 at 03:29 PM. |

For a translation problem, a factory reset is probably overkill. But, changing languages to check what happens isn't unreasonable. I've seen plenty of problems over the years because loading a new language was handled badly and exactly what you saw after changing depended on the two languages involved. |

Thanks Semwize, viewing the code you put, I think the first line is used for the singular and it's fine, the one that's wrong is the second one that is for the plural. LIBRO -> singular LIBROS -> plural Do you fix the language in the file that you attach? |

You might want to change the language to 'Español (México)', the mistake is not present there. There are, obviously, some regional differences (Configuración --> Ajustes, Quedan X horas --> X horas restantes etc.).
I remember seeing a translation mistake in Italian in a old firmware version, I signaled it to the customer service and it was fixed in the following release. So you should do that as well. |
