Posting this for my daughter:

Using an antique Kindle DXG with 2.5.8 firmware. I’ve run the jailbreak, which seemed to work, and I’ve got it date setup courtesy of someones install package- to within the last year and a half.

What I want, is to reset the time to current day so it will stop re-dating my files. I know, it’s an outdated gadget. It also does exactly what I want, and nothing extra, so I intend to keep using it.

I’ve seen Instructions for KUAL, and for USB network hacks. I can’t figure out what to do with KUAL if I can even get it installed which I did once but then couldn’t use- and the USB network hack simply didn’t install. At all. Firmware didn’t recognize it. Nor was I able to configure the PC to do USB networking anyway.

I’m not software illiterate, but I’m not this this kind of literate, and all the how-to pages are written for people who speak this kind of software, which I don’t.

So. How do I either

A: use any of the above to set the date to within a month of accurate,

B: Use the other thing called kindle Tool that I also can’t get to do anything to make a Binary installer update with the date that my kindle can actually use,

Or C:
Who do I have to ask to make me a BIN update that will set the date to this month, preferably this week? I can pay a little – approx. $50-$100, if that makes a difference.

Please write either a very simple checklist or speak something other than this particular techspeak which I only sort of follow. Thank you.

I see post #2378 and think it might be what I want - except see tech dialiect problem, (I speak Skyrim mod sort of, but not this) - but I’ve thought that before about other things and well… I’ve beaten my head against this problem off and on for over a year. I want to be assured what I’m spending my efforts on has a good chance of working.

Thanks
