The solution, for me, is a no brainer. The newer Paperwhites are better than the first edition anyway. I didn't wait for my Paperwhite One to die. Of course, a friend is still mourning the death of her Paperwhite One because she used it to play games that won't play on the newer Paperwhite or her Voyage.
personally i have no idea what the root cause.

sometime after reboot i can use.

sometime i have to reboot by hold the power button and after reboot screen still hang.
