[Q

UOTE=tsb1;1813927]I bought my Kobo Touch a week and a half ago. I believe it upgraded itself to the latest software release when I plugged it in (1.9.something). Yesterday I started using it and the battery charge was showing a quarter when I switched it on. After several minutes it swapped to the 'Please Charge Your eReader' screen. I connected it to my PC using the USB cable and nothing happened - even after leaving it for over an hour. A soft reset (pin in hole in the back) has no effect. It's still showing this screen.

Any suggestions?

Thanks[/QUOTE]

If you hold the button on the front and the on/off switch at the same time, for at least 10 seconds, it should correct itself.
