Are you setting the margin to 0 from the slider in the reading settings from within Glo? If yes, and it's not working, the margins are probably set in the book itself. You can then convert it with Calibre to include the settings you want, or manually change the margin settings with Sigil (or a text editor). But you'll need to have a DRM free epub to do that (google Apprentice Alf as we're not allowed to discuss how to remove DRM on this forum). Once the DRM is gone you can unzip the epub (change the .epub extension to .zip) to get inside, or just let Calibre do it all for you.

Have a look at this thread to get the 2.1.5 firmware and how to install it. Basically, you unzip the firmware package to get three items:
- a folder called "upgrade"
- KoboRoot.tgz
- manifest.md5sum

Put all three items in the .kobo folder on your Glo (.kobo is a hidden folder if you're on a Mac*). Then eject the Glo, unplug it, and it will downgrade. Note that manually installing firmware is not officially supported by Kobo. (But many, many, many of us do it.)


* To see the .kobo folder, from Finder, go to the "Go" menu, then "Go to folder..." near the bottom, and fill in /Volumes/KOBOeReader/.kobo – then hit "Go"
