I have the k2i .bin file for 2.5.2...

And apparently it works. It' is for K2I 2.3.4, so if you have a previous version you'll have to upgrade to 2.3.4 first (files are floating around here somewhere) Then it will update to 2.5.2.

Here's the link:

If you're at 2.3 or 2.3.2, you need to update to 2.3.3 first:

http://www.amazon.com/update_kindle2_gw.bin

If you're at 2.3.3, then you will need to update to 2.3.4:

http://rapidshare.com/files/38279404...2_gw_2.3.4.bin

Once you're at 2.3.4 you can download and install 2.5.2

I know you love me, and if you're so inclined I'll take donations for my breast cancer walk. It's for a VERY good cause!!!)

Three cheers for luvmy4brats!

I can testify to the fact that it actually works (at least it did on mine).
In my K2 international, I went from 2.3.4 to 2.5.2

Works Great

I updated to 2.3.4. Then I renamed the downloaded 2.5.2 bin file to Update_kindle2_gw_2.5.2.bin, copied to my kindle, updated fine.

Many thanks, pilotdrh2003!!

I did as you said and the upgrade was easily accomplished.

Makes me even more annoyed with the way the Kindle folk have been (mis)handling the new upgrade.

Thinking about that maybe that was the main reason for Amazon to roll yout the update step by step.

Cause they would like to keep the risk down what happens when they open whispernet for all. Maybe they checked if the roaming data would burn their money

I'd have to install three updates, since I have 2.3? I think I'm too lazy
