K3 Help
Hey all.
I have a K3 here that was in use by a 12yo (so god knows what she did to it). It has stopped responding to anything. At one point it was stuck on a list of books screen but somewhere along the line it regained enough sanity to show me the amazon tree along with the definition of kindle. Yay.
Downloaded kubrick & setup to run off usb stick. Per onscreen directions, held power button + volume down button to get it into the proper mode. All is well with this. Then flashes the kernel (very quickly). Finally get to the point where its going to flash the main bits (claims couple hours) and this finishes in less than 10 seconds.
Tried several times, re-downoaded all files to be safe, and tried on a 2nd PC with same results.
Any advice? I did charge for a couple days on a wall charger before attempting this. The battery does not physically appear to have issues (not bulging or anything) but who knows.
I've already ordered a replacement from the eBays, but I'd really like to get this sorted.
Thanks!
