Hello,

I used the mod on my Kindle DX (Software version 2.1) and it worked flawlessly. I got the small lock instead of the amazon pictures.
Today I tried to update to the new software 2.3 which did not work. I uninstalled my hack, using one of the uninstall files and the amazon pictures start to come back. However the install 2.3 still does not work. It executes properly, but then the version is still 2.1.
I talked with amazon and they downloaded a service log from my Kindle. Then I received an e-mail that the update would not work, because I modified my Kindle.

Can anybody tell me how to unmodify my kindle, or how to force the update??

Thanks to the kind soul that can help me.

Add on: Talked to Kindle Support again and they said it can't be fixed. I can buy another Kindle (refurbished $250) or they would exchange it if the screen or the modem would go bad...
After that I tried to install and uninstall the new version, did a reset; and now the 2.3 update will not go through anymore (installation fails).
Does anybody know how to completely restore the OS/Software on the DX?
