I received my K3 this week and I am very disappointed. The moment I unpacked it I was examining it in every details and I spot that it was clearly bearing opening marks and it was even not closed together! Next, I noticed the rattling sound...
I went stright to google and foud this thread. Nonthless I decided to fix it myself, the plastic case was bearing clear opening marks already so I did not care about being accused of opening it if I want replacement. Inside 2 screws was rolling freely and next 3 was loose.
There I have important question for all of you brave to DIY. Did it happened again over time? Is it only manufacturing problem or the build material of the kindle which causes screws looseing over time. I just wonder whether fastening the screws was enough or rather I should put some varnish on the screw before fastening it.
Well anyway if it happen again to me I will tear it open again and use some varnish to glue it forewer
