To "reset" it: you should only need to hold the power button OFF for 20-30 seconds. The screen likely won't change although the light should go off. Wait another 10-20 seconds after you release it before trying to turn it on again. It won't accept ON input immediately after shutting off. The other option would be to try the pin hold in the bottom to reset it. But this really sounds like something specifically related to your device/books than a general firmware issue.
Although if it is a corrupt database you will have to log out of your kobo account and log back in. Unfortunately the device will upon logging back in to your kobo account on the device rebuild your data base and any settings you may have had will be gone. It will also take a bit of time depending on how many books are actually on your device.
