Some weeks back, my kindle froze. It totally refused to respond in any way. PC won't detect it. Power switch won't respond.
I decided to open the back cover and reinsert the battery. In this process I dislodged the ribbon cable. I reconnected it and put the back cover in place after taking out the battery and inserting it again.
Now the PC detected the Kindle as Mass Storage and the power switch responded too-sort of. When I held the power switch to restart it would stay green for 7-8 seconds and then the the green light would flash couple of times and nothing. I felt pathetic for weeks.
Then, I came across the
K3noobdebrickatk
And I am hopeful that this will work for me.
Now, in step 3 when it's mentioned to download
mmcblk0p1 files, which ones should I download?
mmcblk0p1-3.0.2 (factory, part 1 of 2)
mmcblk0p1-3.0.2 (factory, part 2 of 2)
These ones?
But then these add up to only ~ 350 MB and it's mentioned that the Root Filesystem Image: ~650 MB
Please enlighten me.
Currently, I am putting my kindle to charge for the next 20 -30 hours or so.
