Unfortunately, Amazon says they don't have any database with serial number kits. can this number be calculated somehow with the others?
Those questions are beyond what I know. I made the script from information on the wiki page https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers and the post https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...20&postcount=5

There have been posts in the Developer's Corner that mention replacing the EMMC but I don't know how much detail they have and can't seem to find them.
