So the problem is only for Gen 1-2. Because of the problem, I am experimenting with Gen 2 Kindle but with Gen 3 firmware hack. I try to register through firmware 3.3, the problem is persistent. So it is not a firmware problem, but more likely a missing certificate required for registration after factory reset that Amazon server cannot return. However, I will continue to firmware 3.4.2. If it is successful to return the registration, then it might be SSL/TLS problem.
In Amazon Forum itself, now emerge that people unable to de-register their Gen 2 device although 3G is full bars. So there is a break in the linkage between Gen 2 Kindle and Amazon server currently. It also means any patch will less likely to work. Only Amazon that can fix it.
When the device tried to connect to Amazon server for a certificate, the device send its serial number and some other related numbers. In the debug file, the server returns "file not found". All Kindle Gen 2 data might be removed either intentionally or accidently. May be this is a routine server maintanance because the early Gen 2 is now 10 years old—only Kindle DXG the latest sale is in 2014—.
