I wanted to write much more and how I'm dissecting the K3's SoC-based USB downloader mode. I'll do that later in this thread, but just wanted to write a big correction to what I always wrote up to now: That it would not work to use Advanced Toolkit from Freescale out-of-the-box.

Instead, I just proved myself wrong there and successfully dumped (not yet: wrote!) the first 16MByte of my Kindle's flash.

For those who want to join the party: The relevant settings for ATK are: "TO2" model, MDDR RAM. I think it was a bit flakey here in the past because after sucessfully switching from the "ROM Kernel" over to the "RAM Kernel" the USB connection is reset, which irritated my VirtualBox'ed WinXP.

Now comes the harder part: Deciding to try to use it to actually flash something. I think I'll go and try and try with a big "marker" file on the VFAT partition...
