From the description of your issues, it is a hardware issue and hardware issues can't be fixed by a firmware update no matter how much you wish they could be. It'd be like somebody calling Amazon to ask for a firmware update to fix the fact that their Kindle was run over by a car. Sometimes you just have to replace the unit.
