@NiLuJe

Thanks for your help.

I downloaded the uImage from the src directory of yianfu's kernel. I wasn't able to flash it (see below). Is it worth trying a different kernel; is my kindle messed up, or is the software not flashing correctly?

sudo ./k3flasher mx35to2_mmc.bin program 0x00041000 uImage
W: cannot find device (is it in USB loader mode? are you root?) - waiting for it.....
I: success.
I: found suitable device
E: wrong transfer length, wanted to receive 8 bytes but received 4 bytes.
I: above error can be ignored, it's due to the device being in ROM kernel mode
I: RAM kernel should be running now. Trying to re-open device: .
I: got it.
I: size is not a multiple of 512
E: wrong transfer length, wanted to receive 8 bytes but received 4 bytes.
E: aborting. It is suggested you power-cycle the device.
