Do you have a solution?

Hello Fred, no I have not found a solution yet.
I did find out that getting back to firmware 2.5.8 (using the file output/update_restore-os.bin from the yifanlu 3.1 firmware update) I could use the Kindle Store again. But then of course I was back to the not so functional old version, and that was no fun.
So I tried going to firmware 3.2.1. The process went smooth but did not give access to the Kindle Store. Then I tried going to firmware 3,3, as described by 'newman' om MobileRead. That was a bit technical and needed the use of a Linux system, but not too difficult. That update process went smooth but again no access to the Kindle Store.
So then I tried the next step as described by newman, going from 3.3 to 3.4. There I am currently stuck in the process because of the problem with a file called fb.modes, as described in that thread. So this is getting difficult, I guess I need to complete the stept as described there but it gets a bit intimidating
I hope that when I finally get to 3.4.2 the Kindle Store will work, but I am not sure, I do not even understand what happened.
But on the positive side the only problem seems to be the Kindle Store, the downloading of books from the Archive folder works well enough, and the amazon.com and amazon.co.uk links (http) in the browser work as well. Wikipedia does not work and that would be solved by the 3.4.2 firmware. As I am using a DXG International (in The Netherlands) these are the only web links allowed anyway.
