Hi there! I've got a used Kindle 2022, sold "for parts", and I'm trying to make it boot somehow. What I've currently tried:
- Countless times the 40s button press trick, to no avail.
- Left it charging overnight, in the beginning, it's charging at around 5.1V and 0.2A, but slowly the current diminished to 0.04-0.03A (the no-load current being 0.015A). When the current got that low, the amber charging light stopped, but I
never got a green charging light from it.
- Disconnected its battery, waited around 12 hours before plugging it in and trying again to charge it (and the button press trick), still nothing.
If it matters, when I first disconnected the battery the voltage measured at its terminals was 4V. I don't know what I could try anymore, I feel like I've bought an e-ink frisbee. If you're interested, here is the backside of it. If needed, I can provide more images (and better-quality ones). Thanks!
