Need Help Reviving a Kobo Touch N905A

Hi everyone,

I recently found my dad’s old Kobo Touch N905A. He bought it a long time ago, but I had never used one before. When I turned it on, it powered up and seemed to work, but it was stuck and wouldn’t update.

Since I wasn’t sure what to do, I tried updating it, but that didn’t work. Then, I decided to reset it, thinking that would fix the issue. However, while it was rebooting, I saw a symbol telling me not to turn it off. Unfortunately, I got impatient and powered it off anyway. Now, I think I may have bricked it.

I’ve already tried a regular reset and a hard reset, but nothing seems to work. I also searched through different threads online but couldn’t find a solution that helped.

Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
