Hi guys,
Long time reader, first time poster. Sadly, my first post is about an issue.
Was happy with my Kobo Glo for about a year before I started playing with different firmware (not extensively in my view). I tested out a firmware from Marek (Android) then tried switching back to the original Kobo Glo firmware by replacing the SD card inside and BOOM ... the screen faded and gradually turned into a totally white one (within a minute or so).
The frontlight works and the book itself works (judging by the flashing light when I restart it) and I also can see some ghostly images of what is supposed to be on the screen (extremely faded).
I tried fixing it by disassembling the book and checking all the cables, connections, etc. I also switched the SD cards between Marek's image and the orginal one - no difference, the screen is close to being totally white.
So I am asking for your kind help here - is there anything else you think I could in this situation before throwing it into the rubbish bin?
The only related topic I could find in this forum was this one and it did not end up with any resolution -

Thank you.
