All my freezes occurred moving on the menu, never during read books. On my case it seems a software problem.
@mrbrisco, at your place I'll do a clean and full install of firmware suggested (4.32*), with no mods. If problems remain, probably it's the hardware |

I had a couple of crashes. It might have been caused by custom fonts. I convert all books to mobi then to epub to remove all gremlins. No crashes since.

Is there a way to tell if you have the old or new Libra 2 revision? I just got mine, and I have had no crashes yet, but I'm only reading a single epub library book at present.

Code:
/bin/ntx_hwconfig -s /dev/mmcblk0 But it doesn’t matter because it makes zero difference on crashes and battery life. In fact, I’ve had both and the newer revision seems to be somewhat even worse. |

My Libra is heavily patched, has more than a thousand books on it (all sideloaded), several custom screensavers and lots of custom fonts. I adjust the light often, switch between books etc. Yet I haven't had crashes since the firmware 4.32 (I've not updated since). One thing I never do is sync. In fact, wifi is always off on my Kobos. I use the stock reader. |

Hmm... I updated my Libra 2 when I got it, so I think it's on 4.33 now. I adjust the light depending on whether I'm reading during the day or at night, and since I only have one book, I never need to switch books. I haven't added any custom fonts or anything else yet, and I haven't had any crashes.

I've not crashed since installing 4.34.
