Not sure how old your reader is, or from where you purchased it. However, it may be worth contacting Energy Sistem, because on some products they have give a 3 year warranty.

a kinda out of date update
im really really sorry, i totally forgot to write the end of the story.. so beeing ~6 months late, heres whats happenned. my ereader got another problem (something was smashed inside-you could hear it but it never gave the reader any function problems (this problem preceded the wi-fi problem for 10-12 months) the guy from energy sistem advised me not to send because the warranty wouldnt cover shipping nor work (because of the smashed thing problem) and gave me the adress of their local (i live in greece) representative. i decided to get the reader to a independent local fixxer who told me that it was a motherboard issue and cannot be fixed. maybe sometime i will give it a 2nd try but theres already many people, including one who has opened the thing, that think its a hardware issue so i guess thats just the case. |

Thanks for the update.
I had a similiar noise problem with my ES EReader pro, which I bought from ES via Amazon. I complained, they asked me to send it to them and even arranged a pickup from my home (living in Germany) to Spain. After 3or 4 weeks (can't remember) I got the thing back without the clicking noise, so I have to say, their service in my case was very good. I didn't pay a cent for the shipping or the repair. Regarding your problem: I opened my device since this several times which is not difficult. If I remember correctly there is a cable to the wifi antenna, which can be lose. But I guess the local fixxer guy has allready checked that. |

I believe it has to do with the fact that the device has no hardware ID (see attachment). I'm on Win7 x64. |

I forgot to add that it could be that as a consequence of the missing hardware ID, the WPD FileSystem Volume Driver becomes the only compatible driver (see attachment) also considering that manually selecting the ADB driver via "have a disk" yields an incompatibility message.

Metal plate on circuitboard
Also a "noise" problem here. Have my energy pro plus 2 years now. Lasted a while before i had a good one, then i rooted it (Rootmaster) and took it in use. Still satisfied though it has its own nature. Sometimes freezes, sometimes play dead and sometimes refuses to do what i want. But mostly it does what i bought it for........reading books. Last period however, when i moved it i heard some rattling inside. Opened it and saw an unattached metal plate laying free on the board. (see pic) Happy i did open because it could easily cause a short circuit. Can someone tell me (or show) what the original position is. Then i can place it back......with some glue. Thanks

If you look at the board you'll notice a shiny perimeter made of a narrow strip of metal: that's the area the plate is supposed to cover. I'm surprised it was so loose. |

@Urbie:
Looks like a shielding plate which was not soldered properly onto the board. I see 3 options: 1) solder it back on the area which is outlined by the yellow lines. 2) glue it (don't think that really helps). 3) leave the device without it and look if something happens, I guess there could be same malfunctions due to strong electrical fields. |

fixed
Got the plate on spot. I overlooked the outlines and yes, the little, little pegs were weak and worn out. Some foam helds it in place now. Thanks for the clues and advises.

i didnt know the noise thing was common and in my case it started after i dropped it so... i think its logical that they didnt cover the wi-fi problem. about the fixer guy icant be sure (never used him before) so maybe i ll try opening the thing. problem is i cant identify the wi-fi. can someone describe tome where it is? do you thik its possible for someone with 0 knowledge of the thing to locate and fix it or should i try a 2nd not-so-local fixer? |
