How can I upgrade firmware?
Good day,
On my PocketBook, to upgrade the firmware, I had to download a ".bin" file and copy it to the reader. The upgrade was automatic when the reader is restarted. With my Kobo Touch, I don't see any link to the firmware. The only links are for a Windows or Mac application: Kobo Desktop. I can't install this application in my computer. I can't install a VM with one of this OS in my computer. Is there a way to download and install the firmware? (I don't have wi-fi) |

Check out this thread
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=145177 There is a link to the new firmware, plus instructions to put it on the Kobo. Should work on most platforms (Linux, BSD, Windows&Mac). BTW, if you are on Linux, you can install the Kobo Desktop app using Wine&Winetricks. There is another thread about it in the forums. Updates&Syncing works with that setup, I use it myself. |
