Hi,
I'm new to the forum and I'm here as a last resort after surfing the net for a fix for my kindle's issue.
So my kindle keyboard's slide button won't wake up or send to sleep, if I try the reset by holding the slide button for 20 seconds it does indeed reset my kindle and I can read a book just fine afterwards, the problem is I can't use the slide button to send it to sleep, it does nothing, and after a while it will go to sleep and I won't be able to wake it up again. So I'm left with the only option of reseting it every time it goes to sleep.
