After this I synced again and an update was found (now it is 4.32, last week 4.31 was still the latest update in my region), so i downloaded the update, and it rebooted to update. 3 times it cycled and flashed going back and forth from 3 dots to white flashing screen, then rebooted to 4.32 homescreen.
I turned off the device rebooted again to test. and the reboot cycled again and took multiple 3 dots screen going back and forth with two screen flashes (3 dots, white screen flashes, 3 dots, white screen flashes, 3 dots, white screen flashes, 3 dots, then rebooting to homescreen.
I did it again and it was fine, fast boot.
I did it again and it was the problematic boot again.

I tried it one last time and it boots problematic again.
I am now factory resetting to see if this problems will manifest in 4.30 fw.
i had a horrible time dealing with 4.31 and now 4.32.  |
Given all the peculiarities of your Libra 2, I think you’d be best served trying to convince Kobo to replace it for you. I know you’ve said it eventually gets to the Home Screen but something is clearly going wrong on a regular enough basis that you’re very aware of it.
I don’t think it’s a software fault in your case since it’s persisted through two or three firmware releases and presented with symptoms that even those who had consistent issues with 4.31 did not see.
And it’s better to try now as near to your purchase as possible, Kobo would be more inclined to believe you aren’t trying to pull a fast one on them just to get a new device.
I would suggest being persistent, tell whoever you talk with at Kobo that you’ve gone through many factory resets and the problem persists. Because it does actually persist even if you get a few good reboots back to back you’re still getting bad ones as well.
