What a great day... Had some free time today so I started pouring over the internet and through this forum and tried soooo many ways to get this Kobo working again. Finally tried something a little different. I had it plugged into a wall charger through usb cable to make sure it was charging. Had a solid green light. Took it from wall and plugged into several different usb's on my computer... Tried a lot of different switch combos...

Then I held the power switch for 30 seconds... then pressed the home button and power button together, in that order. Then I got a couple red flashes on the power light. Then it lit up like a strobe light... Flashed white, blue green for a couple minutes then shut down. I powered it on and it took me to the original Kobo welcome screen.

I now seem to have an 'as new' Kobo. Computer recognizes it and all I have to do is reload my books.

Thank you to the people who responded to my pleas. I am now a Happy Reader again. I will continue to visit this forum because of the great content. Learning all kinds of new things these past few days....

Thank you

Glenn
