What annoys me is that I don't see any damage to the PCB itself, so I suspect it's purely some firmware fuckery. I don't have any hope that this might be fixable at this point, but if anyone has any ideas I'm all ears!

For me, it took a little work to get all the little bits of waterproof coating out of the sdcard slot on my 2E. Maybe some pads are being covered and not making a good connection?
I am not certain it is a firmware issue as that resides on the sd card.
I can swap between 2 sd card and the 2E doesnt know the difference.
The only other thing I could figure was it that it was interrupted during an update.
The firmware update has some bootloader among other things that get flashed to things outside of the sd card...
Maybe restore the slim image, or image your second 2E, and copy the latest firmware to the .kobo folder as well.
Then try it in the device - maybe it will update and recover.
