Kindle 3 Freezing related to Indexing?
My kindle 3 Wifi has frozen a few times now. This problem seems to appear just after I've loaded a new book. I guess it's related to indexing. I restart the device, but it takes a few minutes to actually restart back to the home screen: It stays in a loop where the progress bar after the restart fills to 100 %, but then starts from 0 again.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Eder |

After the update it was slightly better; took about one hour after loading 3/400 books; unstable and freezed. Indexing asked a lot of the batterylife, so just as to be sure, I plugged it in to load for an hour or so. I was able to read again when I could see ( disappearance of a slight whirling round thing on the left upper side) indexing(?) was finished. But perhaps the whirling refers to something else; please correct me. But the good news: after resetting a few times, it worked fine again. |

Ahh,
updated to 3.01 and loaded a few books today. The Kindle did not freeze so far. I hope that solved the problem. |
