## Firmware
|
|
|
|
- The user provides their own firmware zip (not hosted by us for legal reasons)
|
|
- Both Libra Colour and Clara BW/Colour currently use firmware `4.45.23646`
|
|
- The firmware zip filename matches what `kobopatch.yaml` references: `kobo-update-4.45.23646.zip`
|
|
- Different device families may have different firmware zips even for the same version number
