Bricked GLo?

Hi, I think my Glo is bricked. It displays the cover of the last book i read and it says its switched off but i cannot get it to start. Tried holding the light button and turning it on.....the white light starts blinkin but nothing happens. Could you sent me the image so i can write this to my SD-card?

I even opened the glo, disconnectd the battery but the screen keeps working.....


THanks in advance!

Disconnecting the battery will have no affect on the screen. E-ink screens use no power to maintain the image. The screen is written to, and then holds that until the next update.

And I recommend using a new SD card. The cards in the Glo are getting old and a lot have failed. You can use a larger card, but, 32GB is probably the maximum that will work.

Hi there,

I have a Kobo with a corrupt internal SD card, which is totally my fault by the way. Could someone please point me to an image I could use?

Many thanks in advance

Hi. I've tried everything in the reset genre and to no avail, so as a last resort for trying to bring back my Kobo Glo HD to life any chance of an image I can use please?
Thanks in advance.

Hello! Messages is already available. May I have the image pls.
