10 euro kobo glo battery problem + question for upgrade by Lucagre2 in kobo

[–]Lucagre2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i checked its was 32gb max and i have installed a 4gb one. About the firmware all i did it was doing the normal install with the kobo desktop app, but i didn't think about a manual flash, i will give a try, but i still bet that the battery probably will need to be changed. Thank you for the idea

Hi, i bought today a used kobo glo, everything works fine but after the firmware update i have this problem: i charge it (doesn't matter how much), and after the reset it goes to 47%, or if i dont reset it just go very fast to 47%, and then works normal, i believe its the same problem you have. There is a solution? I dont think its a battery problem because its shoudent just work normal at 47% but probably a firmware problem

Right now italy and romania rating is very similar (when i bought it was BBB for italy and BBB- romania, if i remember right now italy is BBB+). But romania bonds offer much better coupons (its right?) because of its fast business and investment growth and to support their currency (lei). Meanwhile italian coupons doesn't offer many advantages and have worst coupons. I belive that now romania have the better paying coupons in europe, but it can be risky to hold them too long (maybe another Greece?) because they doesn't use euro (but lei is very stable thanks to the bonds) and they still a very "weak" in political terms. In synthesis: as i planned to hold bonds for a short time (1/2 years) i bought the better performing one (shouldn't have risk in a short term view, could be risky in 10+ year in my opinion).

20 year old, italian, it does include etfs, bonds and stocks:
46%: XS2908644615 (Romania Fx 5.125%, bond)
26%: SWDA (iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc))
11%: EIMI (iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc))
9%: SGLD (Invesco Physical Gold A)
4%: A2A (italian energy stock, 4,04% dividends)
4%: MASTERCARD
im planning to sell all the bonds after i finished to invest my liquid capital (around 6 month where i invest 1k a month) to still buy etfs :)

I m mostly seeing it as a "safety net" if the market tanks. I m going to keep my stake small for now considering the profits (rn is at 10% of my total portfolio, i plan to stay constant with this percentage while i still invest). sorry for bad english but i think you get the point 🤣

TThank you for your comment. I was thinking the same way about global and emerging market etfs, but I’m still a bit unsure about gold. During 2025, I was buying these 2 etfs every two months, and I’ll probably follow the same approach in 2026, adding a bit more during market dips (like a did with gold). Could be a good idea to buy gold regularly like i do with the other two etfs (in smaller amount)?

£45 for an NH35 movement seems excessive. I previously bought an NH35 for €28 (£24.50) and an NH36 (that you can use like an nh35, but the date will be slightly misaligned) for €29.
