≪ Previous: K4 K4NT Properly bricked after screen replacement, help please!

Hello everybody. Yesterday I got the new PW4. I turned it on, connected to WiFi and linked it with my Amazon account. From the box I had 5.10.0.2 frimware. And it updated automatically to 5.10.2. Now from what I read, I can't do JB on this frimware version and I would like to know if it possible to downgrade on 5.10.0.2 or previous frimware versions.

Thanks in advance.

PW2 Trouble not solved after tried 2 different methods

Hi guys,

I have read some of threads for unbricking kindle pw2 as mine has been stuck on the screen for the tree for almost a month.

I tried 2 methods: one is through SecureCRT, another one is through the following tutorials:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=267541

Unfortunately, I can't solve the problem and since I totally know very little of programming, I just copy and paste what the tutorials say.

The same situation happened in those two cases:

Here is what I found from Putty-COM3 windows:

Kindle PW3 5.9.6.1 ssh broken pipe leaves broken ssh

≪ Previous: PW2 Trouble not solved after tried 2 different methods

Hi I have jailbroken my kindle pw 3 on 5.9.6.1 and set it up with usb network extension
after successful connection, i started exploring and delete some files by "cat"ing them that are left by Calibre and other tools years ago.

But after using cat on some really big files, and possibly contains other than ascii characters,
my terminal prompt says "broken pipe" then disconnected from my kindle.

Ever since then each time I try to connect to my kindle I will see the banner but a blank terminal that cannot be ctrl-c or ctrl-d ctrl-z completely unresponsive

I have tried upgrading from 5.9.4 to 5.9.6.1 and reinstalling by flagging complete

PW3 Any Kindlet development library?

≪ Previous: Kindle PW3 5.9.6.1 ssh broken pipe leaves broken ssh

Now that new firmware drop azw2 support, i really wanted to play KindleChineseChess on my kindle, but its in azw2 format, so grabbed the source and tried to compile.

But com.amazon.kindle.kindlet class seems to be missing from the project and a simple google search suggest it's from Amazon Kindle Development Kit, but it requires setup and applying the amazon sdk program.

So is there any other kindlet library available?

Bump KUAL KUAL+ extention

January 27, 2019, 9:09 am

≫ Next: KT3 (8th generation) battery charging problem

≪ Previous: PW3 Any Kindlet development library?

Attached is a KUAL extension for KUAL booklet users to move the listing for KUAL to the top of the Recent view. This does not take effect until some other document is opened and closed.

The technique used is discussed in the thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=314510

The order of listing in Recent view is based on the last access time in the cc.db database. This gets updated for most documents when they are closed, including the kindlet versions of KUAL. Kindle firmware greater than 5.8.x does not support kindlets so the booklet form of KUAL was created. But, for some reason, the last access time for the KUAL booklet does not get updated. This KUAL extension updates the KUAL last access time to the current time plus 999 seconds. This will keep KUAL at the top of the Recent listing for about 15 minutes. After that, as books are opened and closed, they will be listed above KUAL until it is bumped again.

This has been tested and works on PW3 5.9.6.1 and KOA2 5.9.2

This extension requires the sqlite3 binary from the python package, so it depends on python being installed.

KT3 (8th generation) battery charging problem

January 29, 2019, 3:11 am

≫ Next: Removing "Duokan Store" and "Duokan Push" from directory view

≪ Previous: Bump KUAL KUAL+ extention

I bought a broken kindle from the classifieds, the guy I bought it from seemed clueless and genuine. He told me it was showing low battery, I think he said it wouldn't charge and he tried to use it and then got the error message.

What is it?

The serial number starts with G000K9 which I looked up, its a KT3 (Kindle Basic 2 (Black) 8th Generation).

The case identifies it as model SY69JL

The version code on the screen is 3330460020

What are the symptoms?

- White screen with Error Code 0 and Battery Invalid -22 message.
- Without wall charger power attached I get nothing from it at all, power button does nothing.
- With power attached to wall I get intermittent green flashing LED.
- With wall power when I press the power button it goes green, then amber then off.

I attached a serial port to it, I see the following, I connected power and pressed Enter repeatedly until it interrupted boot and I'm now at uBoot prompt.

I have the feeling either the battery is really dead and it needs a new one or the charging port is faulty. Any suggestions what I could do from here to check the device's health, the state of the battery and the state of the usb port?

I might be imaging in it, but I think the usb port feels a bit sort of loose inside it when the cable is in it, I am able to move the cable around a little and occasionally get a weak green light to briefly appear. With the case off the port seems secure on the board.

Serial JB of PW3 (G090G1)

≪ Previous: Removing "Duokan Store" and "Duokan Push" from directory view

I've just received a PW3 (G090G1) today and it's on FW 5.9.7 so I gather that the only way to JB is to gain serial access.

I have looked around the site and after seeing this post decided I would attempt the method with pins (partly) detailed here.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...65#post3739965

I've ordered the FT232RL-FTDI-USB-3-3V-5-5V-to-TTL-Serial-Adapter-Module-for-Arduino-Mini-Port it mentions, various cables, pins, clips and connectors for just over £10 and one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AMS1117-1...72.m2749.l2649

Some of the instructions I've found seem to mention only connecting to the 3 serial pins, namely here
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...90&postcount=1
Is this because the TTL-232RG-VREG1V8-WE USB TTL Serial Cable supply's it's own power from the USB ?

And in other instructions
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...07&postcount=2
a fourth wire connect from TP1706 to V and a ground other than the next to RX & TX on the serial pinouts is used.

I've read elsewhere that TP1706 supplies 1.8v so do I even need the AMS1117.

Or is it the case that with the FT232RL I bought the power is going to come from the USB cable And I just need to 'step it down' with the same wiring as shown in the first post I mentioned

A tad confused. Sorry if this is a dumb post but I'm willing to give it a go but not an electronics expert !

Actually writing this has got things clearer in my head I think ?
I think I can ignore TP1706 ?

Posting anyway in case anyone has advice or can tell me where I'm horribly wrong. It will be a good few days until the parts arrive

Trying to get my hands on a jailbreakable kindle, the most important thing for me is:

- SSH / wifi connectivity
- Screensaver functionality
- Visibility of screen (prefer paperwhite versions)

I literally don't care about anything else, those three things are the only things i want out of a jailbroken kindle. What is the fastest simplest way to own one? Do I have to go to best buy and look at serial numbers like iphone or nintendo switch jailbreak?

Do they still sell older jailbreakable serial numbers?

Which serial numbers should i be looking for?

I just don't want to buy a kindle and find out later that I can't jailbreak it, that would suck.

How NOT to install custom fonts on your kindle paperwhite

≪ Previous: Best way to own a jailbroken kindle? Are jailbreakable ones still for sale?

Recently I found a cool font that I wanted to use in my kindle but soon I discovered that installing font on kindle was more difficult than I thought it would be.
There was a script on this website for installing custom fonts but I really wanted to take the matter into my own hands and install my font manually.

I ended up bricking my device twice before I could finally do it.
I wanted to share my experience with others who might want to understand more about how amazon fonts work without risk bricking their devices so I wrote this blog post

I want to stress that this blog post serve as a warning rather than a guide. I strongly advice against trying what you read there unless you know how to unbrick your device

I gave installing 3.2.1 a go on a DX taking the ill advised rout of installing a binary I got from the net. There were a couple of issues so I decided to recover and discovered I'd forgotten to copy the recovery files and lost them.

I also have a DXG so I made a recovery image from that and have restored my DX. I've since installed the top 6 or so hacks plus duokan on it and all seems to be well except for the fact that wireless doesn't work.

I don't use the kindle site so it's not much of an issue but I getting wireless would be nice. My assumption is I just need the wireless files. Are those available for download?

Or is there another way to get wireless working in this case?

If not my plan is to wait until I encounter another one to buy or borrow and recover from that.

Hey Folks, I came across a post that gives instructions on how to change the Kindle's default font sizes -- link here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...2&postcount=19 -- when I tried it using my Mac's built in text editor, TextEdit, it did not work. Is there some other software that might make it work?

I did all of the steps in the post: I opened TextEdit, typed in 14 numbers with a space in between each number(7.5 8 8.5 9 9.5 ... etc), saved the file and named it "FONT_RAMP", and then copied over to the root of my Kindle drive. The software on my Kindle Voyage is up to date.

Kindle DX screen. Can you connect to other models of Kindle motherboard?

February 6, 2019, 1:05 pm

≫ Next: Kindle 90C6 no KUAL and should I update?

≪ Previous: Recommend an electronics book for a noob

I was wondering if it was possible to successfully connect the larger Kindle DX screen to the motherboard of any another Kindle model (e.g. K4NT) so that i could use the larger screen in a display project.

I would like a jailbroken Kindle to be able to use any (possibly third party) bigger than 6" e-ink display.

I am aware that some of the Kindle models have the chip that drives the screen mounted on the ribbon cable but i am not sure whether any of the cables would be a physical fit and i am guessing it wouldn't be as simple as connecting to the motherboard and it working out the box due to different screen ratios and other factors etc.

Is anyone able offer any advice re this?

Thanks in advance.

Hello!

I got a Kindle 90C6 (KT2/Basic) from a thrift shop today running firmware 5.9.6.1.

I followed this guide

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=267541

But KUAL does not show up when placed in the documents folder.

Should I try again with this guide after a factory reset?

https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/5_x_Jailbreak

And after I get all this done, should I let it update with the newest FW?

EDIT: running ;log mrpi in the search bar shows the "Hush little baby..." message, so my JB was somewhat successful

Plus I still have root unlocked

Edit again: Got it! Ran the bin in the mrpackages

But my question about updating still stands, should I?

≪ Previous: Kindle 90C6 no KUAL and should I update?

Hi all.
I have a Kindle 3 (not touch, this is the old that came with the keyboard).
Well i use it a lot, and in the past i do a dual boot with Duokan.
So i have the option of boot with Duokan or with the o.s. of amazon.
But, i see that there is a "new" (for me) os. that is called KOreader.

So i want to know if there is possible to install this os in this kindle.
(knowing that i already "change things")

Thanks to all.

ps i dont speak english.

Hi, comrades.
Please tell me how to disable Demo mode 5.10.2.1 with installed jailbreak without losing it?
jailbreak was successfully installed on the Kindle PW2 in demo mode via serial port.
After installing jailbreak, the tx copper pad from the board came off .... I can not reinstall the jailbreak second time.
Sorry for my English (Google translate)
