- touch function seems to be deteriorating. I've posted this here before but here is an update to the issue. It seems that whenever I get to the end of a book, and you swipe to turn the page, it should automatically exit the book and display it as finished on your home screen. But mine seems to like bookmarking stuff. When I swipe or touch at the last page, my Glo would bookmark it then exit the book.
3.2.0 has some strange behaviour with taps. Random bookmarking of the page or going back a few pages are generally what have been seen. A workaround is to install the multi-touch kernel that is in the developers sub forum. That has the added benefit of getting the multi-touch gestures that were added for the Aura.

I also see a problem where if I finish the book, the home page doesn't get displayed. If I tap again about 30 seconds late, the home page is displayed. Opening the collections list does the same thing.

- Sleep bugs. Whenever I put my Glo to sleep, it will "blink" like 5 or more times before finally going to sleep (the same with the switch up top and the sleep cover. And speaking of the sleep cover, it's mostly useless right now. It seems to respond less after the update. Most of the times when I open the cover, it would not wake my Glo. I would have to close it again the reopen it.
Yes, the extra flashing when going to sleep with 3.2.0 is annoying. It always grabs my attention if it happens when the Glo is in my peripheral vision.

I do know that Kobo are working on these problems. Hopefully, they will be in the next firmware version.
