Oh man... this is now irritating! After applying v1.3.1 my KT doesn't boot anymore!
It says "Your Kindle Needs Repair."
I saved the output of
Code:
md5sum /opt/amazon/ebook/bin/init.xargs|awk '{print $1}'
which was
758a75d649545ae60f3bf2e90a0c6778
so it wasn't any of the cases in the if-elsif conditions of shell script for manual installation (
src folder).
before doing
killall cvm, what I did was just to comment out TTS plugin in CONFIG.TXT
EDIT: wth? God damn it! I swear I had ssh access in my diags (I am using MfgTool now)... not the best day apparently!
EDIT 2: I can
ping 192.168.15.244.
EDIT 3: (As suggested somewhere in the forum by
Geekmaster to wait for a while for the Enable USBnet to start to respond), I now have SSH access in diags mode, so don't panic my friends!!! I think I can easily get KT on her feet... but still
ixtab, some of the patches have the potential to brick devices, be vigilant about them.
EDIT 4: I will work on this and post my result OR ask for advice/help in a relevant debricking thread instead of here, as I don't want this thread to deviate. Thanks again.
EDIT 5: So turned out it wasn't ixtab's jbpatch problem (well as far as I can see for now), but it was my fault. I'll explain in case in helps someone in future: I had previous kpatch (I never install any *.bin, as I prefer to install things manually) in /opt/amazon/ebook/bin/init.xargs like this:
-istart kpatcher.jar
instead of
-istart jbpatcher.jar
So I corrected it and restarted. This didn't work and I got same repair error. So I decided to uninstall jbpatch... I did it and then restarted... didn't work! I let the KT sit there for a while! Nothing happened... So I gave up, got tired unplugged the USB cable and wanted to go to bed... I got scared because KT then went to a restart loop, I think for 5-6 times!!! Phew, my KT is back now! So this case is closed. BUT I really don't understand Kindle's Linux... I think we should move and replace it with, I don't know, Android or K-Tizen or ...
I SUSPECT there is an issue with the noad patch.
