I've done the hard factory reset, no change besides deleting all my books.
The battery charge symbol says it is 100% but I don't know if that is accurate. I can't drain the battery because as soon as I unplug it from the charger and try to take it out of sleep mode or turn a page or load a book etc, it gives me the "no power in the battery" message and simply shuts down. It will then not turn back on. I've tried charging it for more than a full day and still no luck.
I'm most likely going to be getting a new Kobo in the boxing day sales anyway. Doing this battery thing is more for curiosity and to see if I can really. Can't do any real harm because the reader is completely unusable now as it is.
