The other possibility I can think of is problems with the books. I have seen exactly what you have describe with books that had errors. Different reader apps handle different errors in books in different ways. The epub renderer on Kobo's is particularly strict and will fail for a lot of things that others are OK with.
That's the tricky thing about this issue. I've tried to run the tests in a "Descartes way", by changing every variable. I never use SD cards anyway, and I've tried to see how it goes with totally different ePub collections from one time to another.

First it happens with the ePubs I put into the device using the USB connection. Everything goes fine for a week or two, and then it only opens the files on their last pages, refusing to turn the pages back. Two or three days later it affects the paid ePubs as well. It's weird to see in this thread that this issue are very unusual. I thought it was somewhat common.
