That is one of the reasons the directions for the Frankenstein series 3 firmware on series 2 devices tells you to keep a backup of your 2.5.8 firmware.

After I found that the Amazon Kindle Store stopped working on my jailbroken DX-G on 3.1 (after the Amazon update I acepted) I used my 2.5.8 backup firmware to restore to that old version. When back on that stock firmware the Kindle Store worked again, and I bought a Kindle Single short story without any problem.
Then I did a full factory reset, re-installed the 3.2.1 formware, did factory reset again, an re-registered the device. Now the Kindle Store was broken again, not able to connect. But downloading my Archived Kindle books and that short story worked well. So the 3G connection works but the Store is gone.
I think I will wait for March 22 to see how others are affected and then maybe try the road to 3.4.2 to try to restore the Kindle Store.
But... I think maybe restoring the 2.5.8 firmware using the backup binary does not completely cleanup the device ? Could there be some config file hidden somewhere in another place that controls the connection protocols for the store ? Just curious...
