Can't update your Kindle to firmware 2.3 ? Read on...

Here is a short checklist for people wishing to update to firmware 2.3 ; but for some reasons it failed

-You have installed some hacks :

Make sure you've uninstalled them, usually a package came with its uninstaller.

Savory:

USB Network Hack:

UFH Font hack:

Screen saver:
TBD

If it's still failing, press the HOME key.
Press any key to start the search box ; press delete and type:
;debugOn
followed by:
;dumpMessages

This will create a log file on the USB disk drive ; check it for any failures and see what files is reported as corrupted.
It will be a message like:
Code:
ota_install: C def:patch:patchinfo="/opt/amazon/ebook/config/netfront.ini":checksum failure
And report back here...
