8. When prompted, click 'Yes' to turn off Airplane mode.
9. On "Mesquito", click on the 'WinterBreak' icon
10. (The image and font were so small, I can't read and I didn't take photo.)
11. Copy Update_hotfix_universal-1.4.0.bin into the Kindle
12. Eject and unplug
13. Kindle, go to Settings > ... > Update your Kindle
After it reboot, I got "Collecting Debug Info" for kfxreader, and it kept coming up. I can't open any books. When it connected to Mac, I saw only dump files and a system folder. Nothing else, no Documents/Fonts folders, and reported available space was around 500 MB.
(I suspect that key file might be corrupted.)
Then I did the factor reset, and then it stuck in boot loop. Can't connect to Mac. |
This is really strange because I have no clue what could cause this?
The Hotfix shouldn't, nay, doesn't break userstore like that and factory reset CERTAINLY shouldn't bootloop
I'd honestly just ask Amazon for a new one, they're generally pretty good when it comes to replacement devices
