Before the drastic step of using an image, have you tried the factory reset using the buttons?
To do this: - Hold the power slider in the off position for at least 20 seconds. This is to ensure the Glo is off. - Then, hold the light button down and turn it on. - Release the light button when the LEDs start to flash. If it doesn't work the first time, try again, but take a bit longer at each step. You can also use the pinhole reset button instead of the light button. I'll send you a PM with link to the image, just in case. |

Many thanks for help. I reset but no use, the sd card content is damaged I think. After restore, the sd image, glo is working.
But now I have some issue. The original I can put the .ttf file into the font file, then see the epub file with chinese (unicode). But now it's no function even I setup the font type? |

Do you have the folder named as "fonts" (no quotes, all lower case, with an S on the end)?
