It's absolutely insane that Amazon says, on the kindle when you try to register it, that the email address or password is wrong, when it is not wrong. Amazon should send a message saying look for a message on your phone.

Also, if the message on your phone is old, like from an hour ago, it won't work. You have to put in your email address and password again on the kindle, then look for a new message on your phone right away.
When you say code instead of the password, do you mean when you log in? So do I have to log out, register the Kindle, get the code and then use it as my password for logging back in?

Or do you have the URL to go to to put in the code?
