I appreciate the sincere question. Thank you.
I did try everything to get this thing going. I did have a pending sale and certainly didn't want to issue the refund.
I plugged the unit into a wall outlet. I used the same usb cable and ac adapter that I use to charge my phone and Sony Reader. Those units charge fine. I also used a different usb cable plugged into my computer. My phone and Sony also charge with this set up.
When the Kobo is plugged in there's a green steady light. That's always been the case prior to this issue. The indicator has never changed color when the charge is complete. I left it plugged in for five hours. I assume that's long enough to have enough juice to power up. As far as the resets go, I get a blue indicator light that flashes sometimes. Other times there is no flash.
