Problem with display

I was having my H20 in the shower and I have KSM with the latest update, I also have pbchess. But after I used the poweroff button to shut it off and then use it later it didn't start up. It blinks though if I plug in charger which means it maybe isn't dead? Could I do something with sdcard safemode?

I'd recommend charging it for a couple of hours (preferably with a wall charger if you have one available) and trying again.

I'm intrigued .... you use the H2O in the shower??

Isn't that an awkward activity - holding the device with one hand and trying to clean yourself with the other? How do you lather yourself up, so to speak? The bath, I totally understand - but the shower?

As a by the way, did you try a pin hole re set?

murg, I'm sure this'll tickle your fancy and you'll have something of great interest to post ......

I did have a comment, but figured that discretion is the better part of valour.

Well, if you insist...

Actually, on a serious note, in Lois Bujold McMaster's Vorkosigan series, there's a sequence where Miles (our erstwhile hero), is confined to Imperial Security headquarters, and due to boredom, is reading all of the Imperial Service manuals (think Army manuals) in alphabetical order. At one point, he is surprised to discover one on how to take a shower.

I guess it would be useful to take such a manual into the shower whilst learning to take one.

I fixed it by waiting. It solved itself after some days, so no more action needed. And I am not sure what happened to it but I don't use the H20 in the shower a lot, I just like to have it there turned to a page while I shower.
