What about their phone support? Even as a long-time anti-fan of Kobo's ill-yclept "help" desk, I've been impressed overall with the service I've received over the phone

I'm hard-of-hearing. Everything on the phone sounds like a garbled mess to me.

You have my sympathies - both for your hearing loss and for the fact it forces you to use Kobo's live chat function

To be more specific, it's not actually hearing loss -- it's more of a neurological problem where my brain can't properly process all the stuff coming in.

I'm experiencing some issue(s) and reported it to Kobo.

Specifically, I'm a Kobo beta tester, as are several other regulars here. We've made it very clear in the Kobo beta-tester Slack group with the developers that there are problems with 4.31.

Thanks. Another fellow Kobo Libra 2 owner here in our local e-readers group in the Philippines updated her Libra 2 after a prompt that there was an update, and her device was stuck/frozen in the loading screen (3 dots) and was like that for over an hour.

Do you know if she had wifi turned on? I seem to recall reports of Kobos getting stuck on boot if wifi was disabled.

And then what happened? It finished starting? Powered off due to battery? Something else?

Please let us know if Kobo acknowledges that 4.31 is buggy.

I think that the real question is "Is the 4.31 firmware buggy enough?"
