crapReader - e-book reader for aur0raHAX
Title says it all. It's a crappy e-book reader written for launching with aur0raHAX.
Mostly just a demo to show that aur0raHAX can have "decent" apps.
Comes with 3 pages of a demo book; which you can flip through with next page / prev page.
Install by extracting the folder (books), and the file (crapReader.html) to your aur0raHAX folder.
Load it with aur0raHAX and read the demo book.
It only supports 9 pages right now because I was too lazy to implement more, 99, or 999 probably coming soon; as well as a better looking iframe.
To add more pages, modify the txt files in aur0raHAX/books/demo/. 1.txt corresponds to the first page, 2.txt to the second, etc.

PW1 Mobile network thetering?
So I have opened my Kindle Paperwhite 1 and found that there is a modem with some SIM card. I was wondering if it's possible to put my own SIM card and the network would work?
Or it's possible but very difficult and requires a lot of knowledge and hacking. And finally, if all above positive, would it be also possible to thether this connection to the PC?

PW2 Jailbroken PW2 Accidental Update to 5.9.4
Hi,
I had accidentally performed an OTA updated on a Jailbroken PW2 to 5.9.4. Is there a way to downgrade this / retain my jailbreak without having to perform a serial downgrade? (I'm very lazy to do electrical work atm and would like to list out my options before going to my last resort).
Thanks a lot

DX(G) Develop patch for missing certificate Kindle DX
Many Kindle DX users cannot register through the device once it was factory reset. The dump file ";dm" showing that after factory reset, Kindle DX unable to find its certificate from the amazon server. The updated firmware patch from Amazon website seemed did not solve this problem. Amazon themselves has been very slow and probably won't help to solve the issue. I think that it might be possible to patch certificates from Kindle DX 2.5.8 that still able to register and deregister to Amazon.
Would there be any Kindle DX user who able to register and deregister their Kindle DX from the device that willing to help?
I need ";dm" file and probably certificate files from a fully working Kindle DX.
Or maybe someone knows a better idea to do this? Thanks

Kindle firmware emulation?
Hey guys,
I'm thinking about emulating the Kindle firmware in Qemu to make jailbreak development easier by analyzing the application behavior (especially the webkit browser and the launcher). Does anybody know if it is possible? I can't find anything on the internet. The firmware contains a rootfs, u-boot.bin and uImage but i couldn't get it to run in Qemu though.

Kindle Serial Number Change?
Hi I'm new here, so apologies if I'm not following the correct protocol.
I recently lost a very distinctive 8th Gen Amazon Kindle (left on a plane) and about a week later something very similar turned up on a buy and sell website for sale. The ad showed a screen showing recommendations for the book I'd been reading as well as all my recent viewed books, some less mainstream. The local police contacted the seller, but the serial number didn't match mine despite all this. My question is, is it possible to change the serial number of a Kindle - someone on another website suggested this could be done on the mms - does anyone know if this is straightforward enough for a hacker and any rough ideas how they would do that ( without breaching any ethics on the forum)? My other question is despite being wiped would the device still use the info history on the device as recommendations?
Thanks for any help.

PW3 4GB Serial Debrick and Jailbreak Assistance Requested
Good Day, Respected Kindle Devs!
First, a heartfelt thank you for all your work. My jailbroken KT5 is literally the favorite device in a house full of geekery. Owe you guys for all your hard work. :thumbsup:
Second, apologies in advance for any poor forum etiquette...no intention to offend.
Third: In my excitement to get a PW3 (G090G105XXX, FW 5.8.11, Rev 3243010037) jailbroken I bricked my device :smack: foolishly attempting a downgrade after disregarding the warnings on this thread:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=294964
Had to wait for a year or so until my brilliant Dad was able to get me serial port access to the device, but now I'm able to "diag>exit login" to root on what I assume is the /dev/mmcblk0p2 partition.
We used the great information posted in this thread:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=267541
I failed to backup my device because I didn't study enough and only found knc1's backup thread after the kindle was bricked.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=289690
Since I have already proven my stupidity I'd like to avoid doing further damage by *precisely* following any directions or advice you'd be kind enough to give.
I've attached the serial logs. I'm using minicom and Ubuntu 18.04 live CD across a TTL-232GRG-VREG1V8-WE cable. Unable to get USBnet working (appears dropbear is broken). Also unable to mount /dev/mmcblkp4, the other partitions (except boot0) appear okay.
Goal: Jailbroken PW3 with all the goodies your brilliant minds have developed.
Thank you very much in advance, and THANK YOU for all the great work you have done and continue to do here! :thanks:

PW3 Serial jailbreaking help
Hey all. I recently decided to try and serial jailbreak my PW3 running a firmware that's too new to software jailbreak, and I've run into a little snag. Following this thread I got to the point where the PuTTY window shows the boot instructions and such, but I can't seem to interrupt the boot process before it boots normally.
I'm assuming PuTTY is supposed to send my inputs from the keyboard as terminal commands to the serial port, but nothing I press seems to do anything.
The connections I'm using are admittedly a little slipshod but I figure if it's showing the terminal on PuTTY it's connected well enough to work, but of course, it doesn't seem to be working 100%, but it makes me think it's something software-related.
I'm not at the computer that I've been using to do it right this moment, but I can furnish screenshots/pictures if requested.
Many thanks!

Disable hyphenation? (custom firmware?)
Is there any way to disable the hyphenation on the Kindle Paperwhite? I find it quite distracting and sometimes the hyphens come in the middle of names, which is really annoying.
I know that you can download and transfer azw3 files over which will lose it, but it would be nice to do away with that manual step.
Are there any custom firmwares to do it?
My Kindle is on 5.10.3.

Amazon Kindle Basic (2014) Display Problems
Hi.
There is a problem with the Kindle Basic screen.
The panel is not broken.
But it does not display normally.
It is displayed in black and a line as attached picture.
This is what the last line of the boot log shows.
'monitor: writing_file: file = / var / local / upstart / system.restarts: file = / var / local / upstart / system.restarts
info system_monitor: task = system, reboots = 9398 :: '
And reboot automatically.
I tried to connect the ink panel cable to another device, but the screen came out normally.
Is the motherboard chipset damaged?
Please help me.

SSH/Telnet commands
Hi,
I have a K4 with Kual, usbnet, python...
Something a little disturbing for me: when I connect to my K4 in ssh or telnet, after the welcome message, the usual commands to navigate through repertories have no effects (ls, cd, etc...). For exemple, nano and date are ok.
I try to find what's wrong with my "kindle weather stand alone" fresh install (unable to update weather).
Best regards

KOA2 Kindle Oasis 9th Generation Demo Mode
Hi, I don't think anybody will be able to help, but it is worth a try.
Amazon has made some changes on how their demo mode works on their Kindles.
There is a screen that says tap to learn more, and when you tap the screen it brings you to the home screen of the Kindle. See example in image 1.
The problem is that if the Kindle is no longer connected to Wifi, and you tap the screen that says tap to learn more, it won't bring you the the home screen. Instead it brings you to a slideshow of full screen images that you can page through. See example in image 2.
I have a quite of few of Kindle Oasis 9th's in demo mode, and obviously they are not connected to WiFi anymore. It is impossible for me to connect to WiFi since all I can access is the full screen image slideshow.
If they were connected to Wifi, when I would tap, tap to learn more, it would bring me to the homescreen, and then I could use the search bar to remove it from demo mode.
Any suggestions on what I can do?

PW2 After update to 5.11.11 my kindle stopped working properly.
My kindle updated itself to newest update, and after that I couldnt turn it on without long press of the power button. When I contacted Amazon they couldnt fix it, and they offered me a 15% discount (sic!!) to buy another device ince they have broken my current one with the software uodate which i DIDNT WANTED!!:smack:
My kindle still running, but I can reset it to factory settings (its catching a bootloop), whenever I try to connect it to the computer it askd to format the space ( so I cant get access to the directory tree).
I am looking forward to try with the serial port and rewrite the proper software so It can work properly.
And my question is: Where I can find the ROM files for PW2? All the links are dead, I cant download it from anywhere.
These dont work and I cant get a mirror anywhere:
Somebody on that forum said that I can extract such files from any amazon update using KindleTool, but I tried many times and its now working.
Do somebody got these files and can sent them to me? Or tell me how to obtain them? Thank you very much

I'm on the path to Debian on my PW3 and I've got as far as KUAL. Next is usbnet and I'm a little stuck as I keep only finding posts for usbnet on non-touch devices. https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kin...USB_Networking says to read https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=186645 to get usbnet and that references kindle-usbnet-0.21.N.zip which seems to be quite old given I can find kindle-usbnetwork-0.57.N-k4.zip - but only for non-touch.
