bricked kindle 3

bZkindle · 02-10-2013, 06:53 PM

I'm trying to figure out if my K3 is actually bricked or not. When it's plugged in it's fine, but it will restart after a few minutes of reading. It also freezes and I have to reboot it, which it doesn't seem to what to do.

I'd do a factory reset, which will remove all data from the Kindle. There could be a corrupt ebook file that is causing the restarts.

Yeah, I did that and it's still the same.

Would a mod be able to move this to the developers forum so I could get some feedback on it? I think that would be the more proper place if I'm not mistaken.

I guess not. Oh well, I'll repost it myself I suppose.

Hit the ! beside the karma button in the first post, you can use that to contact the mods to ask if they can move this thread to the other forum.

Moved as requested.

Please don't assume that the moderating team is hanging breathlessly upon your every word

. As said, use the "Report Post" button to request that a thread is moved. Easier both for you and for the moderating team that way.
