Your saying saw movement on part of screen image when resetting the Kobo?
This could still be damaged screen. Damage can be caused by pressure on part of screen or twisting force. Common reader covers give some protection but damage can still happen.
For example light weight plastic storage container sized for sliced bread sandwich. Without lid it is easy to twist this container. Snap on cover and it becomes much harder to twist this container. If you push on top or bottom flat surface it is easy to flex the large flat surface. Better container with thicker plastic and 4 side locks for lid is more rigid. This thicker plastic requires more force to flex the flat surface. Thin screen glass doesn't flex it breaks. Readers Covers add some padding and spread out point force on screen offering some protection. The more rigid front and back covers are provides better protection but the reader covers I've seen do little to prevent twisting or point force damage to reader in a tightly packed backpack or suitcase. Reader inside dedicated rigid padded case made of plastic, wood, or metal would be best. This could be a Pelican case or food storage container. Reader between 2 boards secured with duck tape would be better than nothing or most reader covers in a suitcase or backpack.
