Kobo wants to setup, again and again - Page 3

Can't be a firmware bug since we're all running the same firmeware. It has never, ever happened on my Touch, but happens all the time on my mom's.

All I know is that it has to do with how long you hold the power switch.

Maybe some Kobos register a shorter hold as the "long hold" that's needed to trigger the setup screen - or they register multiple sliding of the power button as holding the button for a long time.
