My Aura is frozen with "connected and charging" screen on. Reset button didn't work so I physically opened the reader and saw that the button is physically broken. I tried to disconnect battery (disconnected the small white rectangle with red and black wires going from the battery) and reconnected it. No effect. I expected the screen to go black without battery but the picture stayed on. Should it be like that?
What else I can do? Holding the light button and moving the power button doesn't work either - the light is either on of off but is never blinking even after a full minute.
