I thought my Kobo got bricked or done for good, but I noticed that the light switch is functioning and it's turning the light on and off. So what I did is I pulled and reinserted the card and and did a reset (by pushing the reset button below the device) and it won't work. Not giving up, I took the new SD card and re-inserted the old SD card again and did a reset. And it booted up again.
Is it working? Or did it boot by hang? I'm not sure from that description.

One thing with your description is that I wonder if you inserted the card properly. There's been at least one report where someone went through these steps and it didn't work. They opened it again and discovered the card hadn't been pushed all the way in. Once it was pushed completely in, it worked perfectly.
