@CapnGoat:
Barring that, this emergency script should restore stuff to a somewhat sane state. But given the fact that this should never had happened in the first place, I really, really recommend to check/audit stuff over SSH. Last edited by NiLuJe; 10-11-2012 at 08:40 PM. |

As mentioned in the beginning, I read this article. Somewhere at the end Liraz mentioned a way to prevent Amazon to autoupdate the Kindle software by moving/renaming /etc/uks to /etc/uks.disabled. I thought an autoupdate might mess with the jailbreak that I just installed and decided to do just that. Rereading his article it seems he was merely paranoid about Amazon misusing its power. After I discovered that my jailbreak disabled my 3G connectivity I uninstalled the jailbreak - or so I thought. This whole thread shows me that my initial uninstallation of the jailbreak apparently failed but somehow restored my 3G. It failed because I never renamed the /etc/uks.disabled folder back to /etc/uks. I don't have an explanation why my 3G worked again but I think I would've fixed this whole issue a long time ago if it hadn't worked. Quote:
Thank you krzyk, Helgetus, dwig and NiLuJe, for taking your time for my issue and solving my problem. The next time I try to jailbreak something I will take more time to read everything very carefully and if I then decide that I want to undo the jailbreak I will take twice the time to read everything very carefully.

Hello everyone!
I have same trouble, but i do one stupid thing when update 3.4 won't install. I do reset... After that i can't register my kindle. Once I type my login and password and click submit, registration window is just hide and nothing was happens. I try to unbrick and sucesfull downgrade (with ATK Advanced ToolKit) my kindle to 3.3 It doesn't work. I check file system MD5: "error - /etc/uks/pubprodkey01.pem 00cdf09ffae3e6eeb7ad62f0b27fc667 7130ce39bb3596c5067cabb377c7a9ed" Strange thing is - after that I install usbNetwork hack, get file from another kindle (with right checksum: 00cdf09ffae3e6eeb7ad62f0b27fc667) and replace it, but when I re-run check script and get same error. So... i don't know what to do, please help me and sorry for my totally lame english. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19039103/checkmd5.log https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19039103/jb_emergency.log Maybe it help to find out that exactly wrong with my device. |

I am happy with my hacked Kindle 3.3 - I see it as holy.
I can choose any font with cool reader, I am not going to update because they have added a serif font, I can also choose fun fonts like: http://www.dafont.com/old-typewriter.font I have got over a hundred fonts I can choose from installed already. |

Seems I have a almost the same issue. I have k3 wi-fi keyboard ver. 3.2.1. And after deleting almost all data from /usbnetwork folder and following "reset to default config" I have no possibility to install new firmware (error U007) or another update/hack. Usbnet-hack uninstall wasn't really successfull due to fact, that after ~help there is still ~usbnetwork in the list. System contents and folders not viewable and not accessable. Jailbreak uninstall had no success, I guess. Device is not reachable via network (there're no echo-replies and telnet x.x.x.x 22 is not working as well)... I know, that I need to recovery all data and folders...Unfortunately, I can't write shell-script for this due to lack of knowledge in shell... BTW, your first script emergency.sh didn't create log file.. Strange...But, I have dump file just from kindle. Can you, please, help me somehow? P.S. In the moment I have working K3, but with special offers and standart indents and other standart defects. Thanks in advance Last edited by poruchik; 11-17-2012 at 02:08 PM. |

@poruchik: You seem throughly confused... (and you're mixing a wiiiiild range of unrelated stuff together). (And, no, I doubt you're having the same issue as the poster I was answering in the quote you mentioned).
I can't really tell what the problem is, since you happen to have been doing a bunch of random different stuff for, err, what exactly? What did you do to your device, in which order, and what was the initial problem? Last edited by NiLuJe; 11-17-2012 at 04:24 PM. |

thanks for fast reply. But, problem was really not a problem Kindle was needed to charge to ~100% to update it. Now it's updated (3.4), it has the last jailbreak and usbnetwork.
