My Kindle Touch does not show screensavers
Hi people of mobileread, I have a trouble with my Kindle Touch.
When I lock it, the screensaver doesn't appear and the last page I was reading remains instead.
I've already reset to default settings, but the problem stays.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.

Did you install the screensavers hack?

What screensavers do you want to show? The default or your own?

As far as the last page being shown as the screen saver, see:

Do you prefer to just show the last thing that was on screen, with an overlay indicating when the device's alseep? Just drop a blank file named last in the linkss folder. Restart your Kindle ([HOME] -> [MENU] > Settings -> [MENU] > Restart), and you're done
This only applies if you installed the hack.

If you placed a blank file named "last" in the linkss folder, that needs to be removed.

Thanks for your answer.
I want to show the default screensavers.
In the beginning I had installed the hack, but as I said, I reset to default factory settings removing the hack, and now I have the problem that I want to solve.

Doing a "Reset to Factory Defaults" does NOT remove hacks.
