Ny Kobo bricked itself (resuming from sleep) and I loaded a new image. See https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=226719

Now all is well, with one big exception: if I let the device sleep on battery power then the power on switch has no effect.

If I connect it to a PC, by USB, then it resumes - to ask me if I want to connect to the PC.

Short term, I have sleep set to "never" and have a USB cable at home, one in the office, and carry a third, just in case.

Long term - what can I do?

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Update] I forgot to say that they battery is full (96% charge). Also, the power switch is still in place, slides, pushes against the spring, feels just like it always did.
