btw, check K4 photos, for me it looks like it was opened.

This app uses launchpad-like server which runs from init.d.

Can someone confirm this? If so, great job. I can say that it's a pretty big achievement. The new kindle OS is pretty secure.

A developer said its nand rom had to be flashed. I don't know if it is done through serial port.
The kindle 4 version is same to the one running on kindle 4.

Oh, then if that's the case, you do need serial access.

As i know you are already disassembled kindle4
Did you have dump of it ROM ?

i try to ssh to kindle 4, but i dont know root's pass

This is an old thread. The newer stuff is here:

Different kindles seem to have different root passwords. In at least two cases, root password is mario. In another reported case it was fionaXXXX as reported by Sir Alex's KDT program. In some cases, it might be fionaXXX (same as KDT but without last character)...
