The Amazon page (in English) is:

The download link for the current firmware update (5.6.5) is:
http://s3.amazonaws.com/G7G_Firmware...e_v2_5.6.5.bin
I can not understand what you write about 5.4.5.1 and 5.6.1.1 - forget those too old/not for your model Kindle.
Next, get a copy of the KindleTool binary for your PC from:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=225030
There are binaries there for Linux, MacOSx and Windows - depends on what your PC is running.
Unarchive the binary, run it without anything following the command, it will list its 'help' instructions.
use the KindleTool -info command + your devices serial number to get the correct diagnostics password.
2) You will have TWO (2) USB cables attached between your Kindle and your PC.
One, the one which is the serial-to-USB adapter cable (where you enter commands, a.k.a: the COM port);
the other one, your usual USB mass storage cable that all Kindles use (where you transfer the update file **AFTER** you enter the 'Export USB' diagnostic command.
3) For the COM port USB cable and if your running Windows - you will need a driver.
If your running Linux or MacOSx, they have the driver already. |
It is impossible to me to generate the password. That is I generated it (KindleTool -info command + your devices serial number), but it is incorrect
. Kindletool write to me the following:
Platform is Wario or newer
Root PW-...........
Recowery PW-........
I tried the login Root and Root PW and Recowery, all not that.
Too the different I tried passwords.
Putty Writes:
kindle login: root
Password:
Login incorrect
In line "Password:" at input of the password symbols aren't visible. It and has to be? On how many I know in OS such as Linux it everywhere so.
"kindle login" is "root"???
