# Unload Mass Storage Gadget Module
modprobe -r g_file_storage
# Load Serial Gadget Module
modprobe g_serial

# Infinite Loop for getty
while true; do
  getty -L 115200 -i -n -l /bin/bash /dev/ttyGS0
  sleep 1
done

2. Disconnect from USB
3. run ;log runme
4. Connect USB-Port to Computer, it is now recognised as new Serial Device
5. Open devmgmt.msc on Windows, Search for Serial Port Number in Ports (e.g. COM8)
6. Connect with Putty to Serial COM8 Speed 115200
7. After use you have to kill the RUNME.sh script in Terminal because it loops itself the getty process
8. If you want Mass Storage again, reboot kindle

It works fine on my PW3

One note: if you have usbnetwork enabled, you have to disable it before (device must be in "usb mode" status)

Thanks for sharing
