WTF did they have to make this update so complex? I have been updating my Kindles for years and this is the first Fuck up they have made.
Do you mean moving the bin file, in that case you just move the bin file that was DOWNLOADED FROM AMAZON to the kindle when plugged in, put it at the ROOT of the kindle.
