So, I recently buy a Kindle 4 gen(B00E) used. But, I can't register. And, today, I find that in the Amazon's Servers, about this kindle is there with "lost or stolen". I read that, I can change the serial number, swap to another(Like, a broken Kindle). https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=185627And that, the kindle come back to normal. But, I don't know how to do that .

(He's said that:

"The serial number is stored in the mmc, and can be rewritten. You can swap serial numbers with a broken kindle (that you own, if you know the serial number of the broken kindle, which is NOT the one printed on the back of a K3/K4/K5). With a broken screen, you can still read the serial number over the USB port (without hacking or jailbreaking it). ").

I have to Swap with the same Model? How can I do that? The person (GeekMaster) who wrote that, the last time he enter here is 2017 :/

Somebody knows about that?
