Hi,
It is not possible to make a backup on the 3.2.1 DXG with kindleupdater as the "update Your kindle" remains disabled...

Meanwhile, I found an alternative solution to register without downgrading ! I can now buy Amazon books with my PC and transfert them via USB cable while 3G still doesn't work.
The method is a bit tricky and it needs SSH via UsbNetwork hack.
I did it in 2 steps:
1/ I had my device registered in my amazon account by Amazon customer service.
2/ with ssh/UsbNetwork , I created the missing "reginfo" file (/var/local/java/prefs) with my new registration data.

In copying client.p12 file from 2.5.8 to 3.2.1 (/var/local/java/prefs/certs), suprisilingly, 3G works partially. Now the 3.2.1 gets the titles of my books in the archive folder as well as those of the purchased books! But because the certificate is invalid, I cannot download them. Download remains "spending" indefinitely.
