You did what already? My post said how to force the device to turn off. If you do that correctly, you won't see any changes. Unless the screen light is on, in which case it will turn off.

After that, you need to do a manual factory reset. Is that when you saw the LED flicker? And which LED? The power LED, or the screen LED?

And to be explicit, for a Kobo Aura HD, the manual factory reset steps are:
  1. Charge the device for at least an hour.
  2. Force the device to turn off by holding the power switch in the off position for 20 seconds.
  3. Hold the light switch down and turn it on.
  4. Release the light switch when the screen changes.

All steps are important.
