Has your 3G stopped working?

Could you first use K3flasher to dump the file system to a file where we (or you) can play with it?

There has been an unusual number of K3 problem posts recently, an "almost dead" K3 image might help find out what is going on.

About 20 books, mostly short stories, 3 kite scripts,and about 7 Kindlets.

No idea, I cannot check
