Doesn't seem to work. Just get a screen flicker.
Has anybody else got it to work on a KT3?
Hi nasser I'm wodan15
After changing my email in the account without thinking (<<paranoid)
I couldn't post anymore yesterday...so after a good night sleep I registered again so I can help you out.

It's only a minor thing to get it running...at least on KT3 black ....let's see if this works on your KT3 white as well.

-Download "nightly" v2015.11-533-g1d250c
-Install it
-Open file /mnt/us/koreader/frontend/device/kindle/device.lua (leafpad is fine....or whatever you prefer)
-Change line 120 : touch_dev = "/dev/input/event1", to touch_dev = "/dev/input/event0",
-Change line 354 : self.input.open(/dev/input/event1") to self.input.open(/dev/input/event0")
-Save file

You should be good to go

Let me know if this equally works on KT3W.
