Restoring original Kindle 1 Screensavers...

jmlaabes · 03-12-2009, 07:02 PM

I am in need of some help. I had downloaded some other screensavers in my kindle. I have followed the instructions in deleting them. I do not see the folders when I connect via USB nor do I see the folder in my kindle.

Now I cannot get the original screensavers back no matter what I do. My pics are still there and I no longer want them there. Is there anyone else that has had this problem or know of a trick to get the old fashioned screensavers back. I am desperate.......

Thanks for this, but I tried this already and deleted the folders. However, my pics are still there when I put my kindle to 'sleep'. I still cannot view my other original screensavers.
It states that after one last time my pics will disappear but I have been at this since last week and nothing.

Try rebooting your Kindle?

Are you sure you deleted everything in screen_saver? You may have hidden files. Might be easier to delete the directory itself, then recreate a new one with the same name.
