still unsure if its a failing port or a deeper problem.
so you have two that would not show up at all - did Kobo admit that is a known fault, and can I ask which model Kobo that was. Google searches are telling me it's probably an issue across the whole range
My first Kobo was a 6" Aura, that was bought from WHSmith and had pin pricks. I lived with it, not knowing any different then.

My next was a Glow, bought from Argos, I had a couple of returns until I found one with a good screen, all from Argos though, i just worked my way around my local stores, buying and returning.

I then ordered a Glow HD from Kobo. Never again is all in can say. It had screen issues and was returned for a refund. I then tried to order one from John Lewis, thats how i found out my order was supposed to be fulfilled direct from Kobo and JL never passed my order to them. I ended up getting one from Argos.

My last Kobo was a 6.8" Aura H20, again from Argos and again it took a few attempts to get a decent screen.

In my experience getting a decent screen with Kobo is a big a lottery as with Amazon. I had issues with and getting a decent screen with every model I had.
