Firmware Update and Jailbreaks

Just some stats:
Kindle 3 - (Keyboard) F3.3

Jailbreaks / Dev Apps / Games
-Initial Jailbreak (yifanlu)
-Screen Saver Hack
-Font Hack
-LaunchPad
-Dictaphone Mod
-MPlayer
-K3MusicManager (MPlayer GUI)
-Merged Dev Keystore
-K3Chess
-Kindle Note
-kif
-Kalculator
-Snake Game
-USBNetworking

So anyway, would I have to uninstall all of my current mods and jailbreaks to successfully update? Or will nothing change like update 3.2.1 to 3.3?

Edit : Amazon just stealth - updated me...
I'll report back what broke and what is still working...

VoiceControl mod... sounds interesting. Or is it actually the 'Dictaphone Mod'?

I am guessing he means the remote from your PC voice control mod.

I've looked at a few voice and gesture recognition packages for the device. The OP must mean the PC dependant remote voice control hack as nothing else AFAIK is running yet.

HTH

KindleNote is unfortunately broken: the left/right moves and the
symbols are not working anymore.

Most other Kindlets have this problem as well since updating to 3.4.

Is it because the kindlets' authors use undocumented features or because
Amazon try to discourage such things?

It's just bit-rot.


Things change. devs need to give them a water and feed from time to time.

This one will die on the vine.

Probably shouldn't have posted that. For those who are in the private alpha of the VoiceControl mod will probably consider upgrading.
It's nothing to be interested in, it's not even as close as Dictaphone.

Are you sure KindleNote is working correctly for you in KK fw 3.4 ?
[including the SYM key and left/right directions].
