Kobo Aura v2 not starting
Hello,
I bought a second hand (looking like new). It arrived bricked I think. When i press the button, sometimes nothing happens, sometimes the light will come up for a few seconds and the screen will flash black and white twice. I got a SD image from here and flashed that, still the same thing. Anyone knows whats wrong here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erj5...ature=youtu.be Thanks in advance Last edited by sand3r; 12-21-2017 at 06:47 AM. |

Ok, maybe some progress. When I connect the usb cable to pc and press the on button on the Kobo, I hear the computer make a sound of a new device, after a few seconds a sound of disconnecting. Nothing comes up in "my computer". Last edited by sand3r; 12-21-2017 at 07:26 AM. |
