Hi There.. I am sorry for this post, normally I hate people like me now on forum threads.. :/
But, I did the custom software thing on my old Kindle (B00A) a long long time ago and now I dont know where to start with updating, or maybe better, first completely reset and do the stuff from scratch..
Dont get me wrong the device is still working, but what I find out shortly after the updates - my Kindle had a worse battery life than before.
Which was no problem as I mostly read at home or on short train rides or such things.
No I am on some very big travels without a lot of places to recharge and I want my former battery life back.
If you tell me, it will always be worse than the original firmware/software, I would maybe reset it somehow, because I really only need book reading for the travel.
If you say "naw our most current firmware/software for your device is even better than the original one in battery life" then of course I want a secure way to get from an ancient version of the software to the newest one.
My device information again:
B00A Kindle 3 3G + WiFi (Europe) K3, K3GB
It says..
Version: Kindle 3.4.2 (--some long number--) in the bottom of the settings screen
Also it says these two things in the file system:

Hello! If you're wondering what all this weird stuff on your Kindle is,
I'm a jailbreak hack! There's a good chance that I came from here:

I'm at version 0.11.N, so, if you wish to uninstall me, you'll at least need
the uninstaller from that version.

I'm at version 0.46.N, so, if you wish to uninstall me, you'll at least need
the uninstaller from that version.
NOTE: Rename the 'DISABLED_auto' file to 'auto' if you want your Kindle to act
as Ethernet Over USB instead of Mass Storage USB by default.
Make sure you config is sane before doing this, though.

Hope that helps to give me some hints.
Thanks a lot in advance!
