Kobo Clara HD stuck on Power Off Screen

My Kobo Clara HD is stuck on the "Power Off" screen. I've tried doing multiple kinds of power button presses (hold for 30s then for 15, hold for 15, wait for 5, hold for 5, hold for 4 then press again) and nothing has worked. I opened the back and unhooked the battery, and also took out the SD card and put it back in, no luck. I've tried charging it in a fast charger, and it hasn't worked.

The backlight turns on, and the power LED turns on, sometimes being solid, sometimes flashing. The screen also is doing something a little weird; instead of being the solid image of the book cover that's being read, it looks like some lines have turned off. It almost looks like the screen is damaged, but it feels completely fine.

I have measured the battery, and its charged to 3.7V. I have requested the image in the proper thread, and flashed it to both the original SD card, and a new one that I bought, all without any luck.
