Remove all USB attachements, re-boot it (again), let it go to sleep and tell us how the screensaver looks.
Black and White or does it have clearly defined grayscale values.
During start-up, the process may (??should??) replace the calibration file.

In answer to the question you almost had to post here, the part of this thread you wanted was the part about getting it to accept:
PHP Code:
fastboot set bootmode main
Or about something similar (in this thread - which is about recovering an "Erase All" victim).
Use the 'search thread' tool and those words as keywords.
I may not have it quite correct, but something very like that is in here. |
Thanks, the kindle seems ok once it booted.
I think I saw grayscale, not just 1black+1white, I think it would be apparent.
Yes, the kindle logo that shows on boot up, that is greyscale, that looked fine.
I say the kindle seems ok... well... it may just be the otg adaptor... maybe it got a little dirty?
Since my little input device/keyboard isn't being recognized properly...
I check /dev/input/ and sometimes I see the usb device there, sometimes not.
The kindle power led flashes on maybe every so often, like every 20 seconds.
Weird graphical glitches, I did a few reboots, I tried to open a book and it didn't open, the book (in list view) was highlighted black (that's normal before it opens) and it stayed black, I could press another book and it too highlighted black, I had about 4 books highlighted. Then I got a message box saying application error, I pressed ok and it seemed to be ok again.
They might just be coincidences... I will do more testing tomorrow!

Although any idea how this happened? Entering diags is easy?
I'm just thankful my device didn't need to be opened
