What do you mean it won't come back on? What happens (with regards to the lights) when you plug it in?

You should try a manual factory reset. Instructions are in the Wiki at https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kobo_Reset:_Mini. If that doesn't work, you can try restoring an image to the internal SD card. The image is available if you need it.

Devlinmonty: You will need to try updating it via a wired computer connection. If that doesn't work, see Davidfor's earlier reply higher up on the thread. Good luck!
