Then after a few minutes, the first dot turns white, other 2 stay black. Nothing seems to happen and all of a sudden the screen flashes black and white twice and then nothing.
Device is swithed off completely since cpu gets cold.
Power on results in only the led turning on, screen blinks black and white twice led goes off and nothing.

I was in luck, I replaced the SD card just a month ago for a bigger one. I made an initial backup which I stored on my laptop.
After writing the SD card with the image file the Aura 2 works again, until it starts the update so for now I disabled autmatic updates and swhitched off the Wifi and it's still working.
Same happens with the original and other SD cards. Must be a bad update of someting?
Anyone had the same problem?

Our Kobo Clara had no problem at all, I like the new startpage.
Download the update and try a manual update in case it is the OTA server causing the problem.
