Kobo WiFi having problems
My Kobo is not being recognized by Windows properly and only shows up as a blank drive with the name KOBOEREADER. I have only loaded books through Calibre and havent attempted any of the "hacks" found in the wiki on my device. Can anyone help pls?
---Edit--- I think I found the problem...but i need a "image" of the sd card inside my Kobo apparently. Does anyone have an image of their SD card they can zap over to me? Any help is greatly appreciated ---Edit2--- I pulled apart my Kobo and plugged the SD card into the computer, and the KoboeReader partition was completely empty. Has anyone else had these symptoms before? Last edited by yummygummy; 01-01-2014 at 05:40 AM. |

It sounds as if you are going to need to do a factory reset to restore the visible partition.
Not absolutely certain but I seem to remember that holding in the home button while powering on the Kobo triggers a factory reset on a Kobo Wifi. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1612872 You might want to give this a try. Regards, David Last edited by DNSB; 01-01-2014 at 11:26 AM. |

You should check the posts in the Developer's Corner for an image file and the instructions to write the image onto a uSD card.
