Hello,

my wife's N437 GloHD just stopped working. She was reading a book, shut it down to sleep, and the sleep screen is still on the screen.
I have tried charging it for a long time, but the battery is actually full, 4,2V, I measured it. Reset does not do anything. Power does not do anything. It just does not react to anything.

I downloaded the GloHD sd card image, tried to put that on the card but it stops with an error at 7% or so. Then I took another SD card, and that one took the image without a problem. Still, the kobo does not work with it.

I think this one is just dead, and ready for the bin, but maybe anyone here knows something that I can try?

My wife could not wait for this and bought a Kobo Nia, which is almost the same thing. Still, I would like to see if the Glo can be brought back to life.

Anyone?
