I have the latest firmware for the Kobo Aura. The only option is to connect to the internet and search Wiki online, it doesn’t recognize the offline ZIM. Either searching while within that book, or from within another unrelated book. I scrolled through My Books and saw all three ZIMs, Wikipedia, Wiktionary and Wikivoyage, and I could open all three and read the opening pages.

I chopped up the Wiki ZIM into 2GB pieces as recommended in the OP’s links, and transferred all the files onto the MicroSD. I also grabbed the latest Wiktionary and Wikivoyage ZIMs while I was at it. Following the directions in the OP, I downloaded the latest Wikipedia ZIM that would fit on my card, the no pic version, ~20GB. I have the original Kobo Aura, the one that supports up to a 32GB MicroSD. #78 WandersFar 06-06-2018, 12:00 PMIt’s been a while since anyone’s posted to this thread, so I was wondering if there’s been any new developments.
