Yeah, and there is a Santa Clause. No, really! They are slippery as eels and arrogant as a French man. Oh, wait, they are French, aren't they. Being half Senegalese I really should have known better than making business with a French company. Maybe I'll just spend the weekend spamming their social media, might spur them into action. |

Strange that you have so much problems returning the cover while my return request was readily accepted (apart from a suggestion to send me the other type, which I declined).
By the way, I stuck double-sided tape inside the original cover. Seems to work OK, especially on the slick part at the top of the Aura. At the lower corners, it at least makes sure the corners don't pop off so easily. (And as someone else once said: you're using double-sided tape on your device? Yes. You can't see it, and it does the job. It's an e-reader, to be *used* until it either breaks, or something obviously better comes along, not a holy object to be revered until eternity.)

Yours was the generic black on black one and mine was custom made, that's why. And of course they are French.

Still, if the cover doesn't do what it says, like stay shut and get the reader to sleep reliably, it's faulty. |

The only third party cover that *might* have worked was the ForeFront case, as its unreliability may have been a firmware problem. I didn't dare order it again though, after seeing that your cover worked, and mine didn't, even when ordering the exact same model from the same seller. (Although in a different color.) |

Finally I use the sleepcover case from kwmobile, it is not real leather nor book bindery hardback but it is good enough for the price.
