I use the much newer myts-6, which was based on the original one from lrizzo in your link. rebooting from it was never a problem for me, but I did not do it many times. I suppose that there could be a timing problem if you reboot at "just the wrong time" while the framework is busy, if it does not process "shutdown notice" events like it should (or if amazon implemented it incorrectly). I did not see any problems when I shutdown using the newer onscreen terminal versions...

The recovery mode firmware image might need to be a signed package. Where did you get it?

That RESET command is a factory reset, as I recall. Here is some related content for a K3 RESET: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=144119

In one of those posts, Sir Alex had this to say:
Quote:
2. Enter recovery mode (Hold down [Enter] while rebooting) and choose "E -> Export over USB". Very important note: Do not try Reset to factory default or other options in recovery menu. You will damage your Kindle much more than now.
According to him, doing the RESET command that you did may cause MORE problems, if I understood it right. I did not try that myself...
