Aura H2O strange issues

pkzipper · 03-07-2019, 09:42 AM

I have a aura H20 that did some strange things. It stopped responding and is now stuck on a screen that says "water on your screen" and there is no response by touch or anything else. it restarts, but does not charge. works pluged in but not recognised by windows. I added an upgrade to the .kobo dic and plugged card back in to kobo. turned it on and it did the upgrade but its still stuck on the water screen. Does this need new image or is the screen shot? This is a new screen.
Ideas?

Bezel issue

if the image changes on poweroff/reboot (blank to bootup progress bar to kobo welcome / water screen) then the screen is fine but the IR touch is obstructed somehow

roughly how I imagine the IR touchscreen works on the H2O, the bezel is actually part of the optics so necessary for it to work

I got it fixed. I turned it on while out of the bezel and so it did not work. I put it all together and there is was. All Good
