However, if Kobo personnel are indeed listening to their customers and are trying to fix these "little" problems, I think that is a very positive thing, and far better service than you get from a lot of companies.
I am never willing to simply concede that I am an unofficial product tester for a device I have paid full price for, though.

We are actively investigating this issue, and hope to a resolution soon. Hopefully, this is not a constant thing for you.
Of course, ideally it never happens to anyone. But we are listening, and working to make it better. I found that the only thing that works when the battery seems not to be charging is removing the back cover and pressing the reset button. I have not tried to charge when the unit is turned off. I hope they come up with a better update. Asked by: reneeandneil. Ads by Google. This site is best viewed while logged in. Top Solutions.

So if, for example, you put in the wrong password, you get no feedback. And has been noticed, any hotspots filtering by MAC address will be problematic too.
We recommend if you are having trouble updating your Vox to double check your WIFI password if it is password protected.

Kobo has a track record of rushing devices to the market quickly and this results in many bugs with the firmware and device.
The company has a great development team and normally issues a copious amount of firmware updates to resolve any problems. The Kobo Touch has only been on the market a few months and has already received 5 major updates that dramatically increases the functionality.
The one cool thing about Canadian based Kobo is that they really listen to their users and the community. Often people will request features and they will be incorporated into the next build. Many users are asking us via email and in comments on our reviews of the Vox if they should return it. It is a matter of perspective, it just hit the market and they should fix most of the major problems in short order. There are faster and more robust devices in the market right now but the Vox is a great device for international users.
I would suggest to exercise a bit of patience with this new gadget and wait for some updates to fix some problems. Many people use Overdrive to borrow ebooks and audiobooks from their own public library.
Overdrive is currently in over 17, schools and libraries in the USA and is a viable way to spend less and read more. The Kobo Vox is not shipped with the Overdrive application but that does not mean you cannot borrow books. I recommend clicking on the link with your Kobo Vox and installing it directly to your e-reader.
Makes sure you have a File Manager installed so you can launch it when it is on your devices memory. Once the application is installed you can easily set it up and start borrowing books. One problem facing many users is the fact that the web browser crashes often and gives you memory error messages. The crux of the issue is when you are surfing the internet with the default browser and close it and a new window opens.
When this occurs more then six times your device will run out of memory and you will not be able to load any websites. To fix this issue you want to open your browser and click on the settings menu then click on Windows.
Click the X on the Windows you want to close and you will gain some memory back. A common problem with Windows users is the fact that your Vox may show up as an Removable Disk and not an Android device. Logging out is very simple and normally only takes a few seconds.
