The work around for this is to do a VERTICAL swipe which won't change a page or activate a menu, but will cause the timer that causes this to shut off.

If it's a feature, seems a stupid one. Sleep cover magnet should keep cover closed in most bags, heck, most bags don't even have the room for the cover to open. I have never had it "accidentally" open yet. The bug made me think my first Aura HD was even buggier than it actually was.

Besides, it went back to sleep really fast sometimes, almost instantly, meaning more people are likely to think it is a bug. Thanks for the tip on how to stop it though.

Hi Guys
SOLVED: Joined the forum to say that I have figured out HOW TO REMOVE THE OFFICIAL KOBO AURA HD SLEEPCOVER> Had me too defeated for a while. At the top of the left side very firmly (considerable force, it's okay) pull back the edge of the cover side ridge with thumb, while with the other hand use fingers pressing at once downwards and lifting top edge of reader (edge with buttons). Works for me. There's a knack. Pity the cover did not come with instructions.
