Thank you very much Davidof, but the SD card is not responding to anything. You will need to prepare a new card and upload the image. and I have no idea, if someone can guide me I would be very grateful.
I think you mean you do not understand how to use the image. What you need to do is to write the image to the SD card. There are instructions in Memory Upgrade Mod Guide but it might be better to look for Spanish instructions for burning an image to an SD card.

Also, I would recommend using a new card. The current one might be failing and that could be the cause of the problem you are seeing.

Hi David, I have a Kobo Glo and it is completely stuck. I think the SD card is corrupted (I removed it and I can't open the file directory on the PC) and I have to replace it. Could you please provide me with an image for the Kobo Glo? Thanks for your help in advance!

Hello David,

My Kobo Aura (1st generation) is stucked in a neverending loop :
- Reset screen
- screen requesting to plug it to a computer
-> when i do, the Kobo is not detected by the computer but i m back on the reset screen.

I d like to try to reset it with a SD Card if possible but i would need the image or a similar image (i ve read there is no image really for this generation).

Happy to experiment any ideas you may have.

THanks

There is no image for the Aura. It has fixed internal storage and no way to create one or restore it to a non-working device. Some people have successfully booted using an Aura H2O image on a card in the external SD slot. Beyond that, I don't know what they do with it. I have sent you a PM with the link to the Aura H2O image.

Hi,

I have a Kobo Aura HD which seems locked. On power up, the device is blinking but is unable to boot properly. I have tried a factory reset, but the device is not recognized when connected to a PC.

Could someone send me an image of the internal SD card in order to try this last fix ?

Thank you very much in advance,

I'm not sure what this means. Either the factory worked, or it didn't. The PC is not involved in doing a factory reset for an Aura HD. If the factory reset did not work, the PC won't see the device. And if the factory reset worked, and you can start the setup, if the PC won't see the device when connected, then it suggests another problem.

The method for doing a manual factory is the same as for the Glo: https://help.kobo.com/hc/en-us/artic...-your-Kobo-Glo. But, for step 1, you probably won't see the powered off screen. Holding the power button down for about 20 seconds will ensure the device is off.

I have tried both ways it says to reset it, I cannot do anything with the screen. It stays white with a black stripe, when I use the pin I get pinstripes on half the screen for a fraction of a second, that is all. Happened while trying to install Nickel. Thanks!

With those symptoms, restoring the image is a good idea. And a new SD card might be needed.
