Custom UI For Kindle.

H644b · 06-19-2024, 09:18 PM

I've found a directory where jars with the assests of the UI on the kindle are stored. /opt/amazon/ebook/booklet/ I've looked in much older posts from 2013 and found that the UI image files were in /opt/amazon/ebook/img/ui/ However this doesn't apply to me as I cannot find that directory.

If anyone could help me find the correct jars and images within them to fully customize the homescreen for instance that would be great.

I wouldn't mind coding and making a cross-platform app that lets you customize your kindles UI easily without having to dive into advanced things.

Thanks

Hey, did you have any luck with this?

I was also thinking of having a nicer UI on the Kindle and at least seeing less of the store, after seeing some of the nice things on Kobo readers.

No I couldn't find anything, hopefully someone else might find it but I don't really have time anymore.
