Bricked Cybook Orizon 2013 Edition(from Thalia.de)

Mhtsos · 07-13-2013, 09:06 AM

Hello,
my Odyssey is bricked and stucked in:"starting up" screen.
The device was bricked a few days ago after a complete recharge(1-2% to 100%).
The device was updated via WiFi for the new 5.2 firmware last Monday without any other fuss.
I've tried reseting and recharging my device.
Any thoughts about the possible cause of the problem and maybe any advice for a solution?

Thank you.

Hi,

I have never been quite sure what "bricked" refers to, but when my odyssey get stuck (completely frozen), I can usually come to "reboot" it after linking it to my PC. It sometimes takes a couple of time before achieving it, along with pressing the two buttons in both different orders.
I am not quite sure what actually triggers it to unfreeze, but it has always ended up OK. (It happens a couple of times a year.)

I hope this will help you.

V.

Plugging to PC might be worth a try. Make sure it's charged (in case battery got empty again), then long press on power (10 seconds), and one normal press should force a restart.
Else, contact talia, or bookeen directly.
