Hi,
I am new to hacking kindle. But I need to because my kindle keyboard 5 way controller did not move most of the time. It is a hardware problem. All other keys are functioning. I followed the threads from Dsmid responding Telharmonium.
I finished jail break it in order to have keys assigned to the 5 way controller.
Thanks to Dsmid that i used the version of update_physkeyb_3.4.6-cs-sk_k3g_install.bin.
After update ( I am lucky to able to do this once), I can have the following folders:
.active-content-data, audible, documents, extensions, keyboard, linkjail, music, system, usbnet.
For the keyboard folder, I got cs-sk.kbd, install, kindle.kbd, and layout files. There is no keyboard.txt file.
Just wonder what should I do next in order to map the awdxs to 5 way controller. Please help.
Thanks.
