  1. when turned on, the screen is lit up and it shows the 3 dots but after a short time it then starts to show apparently random blocks of blacked out screen at different positions. This goes on for a long time until I get bored and turn it off by holding the button down.
  2. The 2nd boot then works as normal - hooray
Is this a known problem? I'd really prefer step 1 to be omitted as it always used to be. Nothing has happened to the device other than loading more books.

I have tried no corrective action as I have the latest firmware I believe (4.38.21908) and before factory resetting etc, I wanted to know if the problem is known to exist - or is my device now faulty in some way?


TIA
Why are you truing off your H2O? They are designed to be left in sleep mode when not being used so it wakes up quickly.
