A few days after I upgraded to software version 1.9, my Kobo started doing the same thing. Using the previous cersion, I would hold the power button until I got the "Powered Off" screen with the book cover of whatever I was reading.
Now, it doesn't do that. Nor does it go to that screen no matter what length of time I press the power button. All that happens is that it does power off, but leaves the page I'm reading on the screen. When I press the power on )and hold it) again, it powers up normally.
Further, page turns are sporadic. It will seldom turn a page if I press the page turn switch within about 5 seconds of a new page coming up. Pressing the power button momentarily to put it into sleep mode, if it works at all, results in a pause of about three or 4 seconds, followed by about 10 seconds of that little "working" indication in the upper right, and FINALLY showing me the Sleep mode screen. I have taken to either putting up with the sleep delay or leaving it to go to sleep by itself if I can't spare the time to wait for it.
I wanted to either go back to the previous version or reload the 1.9 software, but Kobo is of no help at all, telling me I can do neither. If anyone knows where I can get a 1.8 or 1.9 software file, I'd be grateful.
