Kobo Aura HD resets after using file sharing #195

Closed skinkie closed 3 years ago

skinkie commented 3 years ago

I have just used USB shared file storage via Plato. After unmounting and disconnecting the Kobo Aura HD resets into factory defaults. Hence, KMon etc. not being available anymore.

Another issue on the same device; When Plato quits via the Menu, and Nickel starts. A message appears stating the microSD card is not recognized, format it to FAT32 and try again.

This is a duplicate of #190.

This appears to be a benign message. Is the message also showing when using KOReader?

Thanks for the quick identification.

No, with KOReader the application quits the three dotted screen appears, and Nickel launches without an incident.

Could you try the updated version of nickel.sh?

I guess I would have to do this via ssh?

If you've installed Plato using the one-click package, you can simply plug your device to a computer and overwrite nickel.sh in .adds/plato, on the SD card.

  1. no fat32 error anymore
  2. after unplug it is still going into the factory reset, and now the factory reset is much worse, I have to set it up entirely again, including login

Great.

I'm afraid you'll have to overwrite .adds/plato/scripts/{usb,wifi}-*.sh with the latest versions of those scripts in this repository's scripts directory for this to be fixed. I thought you had done so, since I had mentioned the related issue.

Confirmed. After replacing the scripts, the e-reader goes back into Plato when the USB cable is disconnected. Issue can be closed if you are happy.
