Okay,
I used Recuva to get these files. For some reason there were two files with today's date. Try the FWUO_update-03-431100003-4 file first. Again this is from Kindle 2 (International Version) going from 2.3.3 firmware to 2.5 http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=8...9f3f1679ee9294 Please let me know if it works or not. And I believe users with April 23rd Amazon's Reregistered Date might get the update today. I manually did sync and check for new items, and when I saw the downloading data icon on the top (the animated circle..spinning for few minutes, I knew it was downloading data). Enjoy, -e |

The 431100003 is 2.3.4, but it still didn't work for me! It detects that there is an update there, but when I try and update it says "Update is Unsuccessful"...
Oh well... |

Pushka try putting the file in your main directory. This time my update was done wireless. I know I had put other updates before - the other files which were listed on the forums. But try the file with FWUO_update-03-431100003-4 That file is new it must be it.

I have it, I dont have a shareware account but if you want to pm me with your email I will email it. Originally recuva was wanting me to specify a folder, I reran recuva and it just search the whole kindle.

In Recuva both files FWUO_update-03-431100003-4 (wierd this file does not have bin) and Update_431100003_472900057.bin were both on my kindle at 7:14pm today.
Try putting both the files in your root E:\ or whatever the drive letter is And then do a update. If not check new items manually also - you might get the update OTA. Again my kindle 2i went from 2.3.3 to 2.5 Please let me know the files work Thanks |

On its way JTT - two 13meg files, one is a bin, the other is a well. I'm not sure what it is.
Now, we need to get those files to the hackers for our screen savers. |
