Now who told you to do it that way? And what exactly have you done to get to diag?

Also this needs moved to the development corner sub-forum (anyone please?) as you will likely get more help there.

Nobody told me but for reaching directories i needed to install usbnetwork so i taught it could be done from diagnostics.

What you should have done is to jailbreak, and then install usb network by putting the install.bin in usb-drive, and go menu->settings, menu->update kindle. There is a readme with the usb network. Still not clear to me how you entered diag mode - did you jailbreak the pw already?

Next time it is a lot easier to read the instructions before attempting to install. That could have been a 5 minute job start to finish including the jailbreak.

[wallacemckart]

You are right. I read all instructions more than twice. But in somewhere i did a mistake obviously.
Anyway i have already done jb.

i think for connecting to my kindle i need to change my pc's ip to 192.168.15.201 but when i do it my pc cannot connect the modem so network. Isn't that required?

[ixtab]

Yeah, I forgot to say: before connecting the Kindle to the PC, let it enter usbnetwork mode by using the following entries in diags (in this order): N - U - Z - X. Then wait 20 seconds and connect it to the PC.

[wallacemckart]

So do i need change my ip or not?

[ixtab]

Yes, of course.

[geekmaster]

Change the IP address of the host PC USB network (RNDIS) only. Do not change the IP address of your Internet access network interface.

Depends on your PC and your current set-up (which I can't see).

Are you connecting to **BOTH** the Kindle and the Internet over **the same physical** device (NIC - Network Interface)?

If yes:
Is 192.168.15.244 a member of the address range you have assigned to that device?
If not, then add a second address to that device within the same 192.168.15.x sub-net.
Note: You may have to set both addresses manually, often you can't have one set manually and one set automatically on the same device.

If no (the most likely case):
Then manually set the 192.168.15.x sub-net and an address within that sub-net to the network interface device the kindle is connected to.
Note: In the simplest case, the pc-end of the USB cable.
Note: Each end of the USB cable must have different addresses.

In the end i could reach my kindle and entered given command. It rebooted but stuck in boot(kindle tree screen) what should i do now?

Did you remove usb cable? Unplug, and push power button 20 sec until it restarts.

[wallacemckart]

Yes i removed usb cable and reboot couple of times but nothing changed(
