It is far from perfect but at least it works better than the misterious Chinese characters

you translated this with google translator?
did you verify it at least?

TURNON_SMART_EDGING="Deschideti inteligenta tuns" ?
TTS_SPEAKER_FEMALE=Fete ?
"Scriere chineza: Latin" ?


you need to verify on kindle to make sure the translation is proper

send the translation to duokan team to integrate it in the package

See more forum will not release version, we will make every effort to 2013 before the official release!

AFAIU they are not going to release a new version until 02.22, and starting with this version it will be named as "Duokan 2013"

I just bought the cheapest Kindle ($69) from Amazon and it says Kindle 4.1.0.

What might I be doing wrong?

Best,

I recently bought a PW, downgraded to 3.1, jailbroke and installed duokan. When I switched back to Kindle I updated to 3.3 (i know, i didn't read not to do that until too late!)

When i restarted I wasn't given the option to choose between duokan and kindle. I removed the firmware update, rolling back to 3.1, but restarting still does not give me the option to re-enter duokan.

Anyone know what to do?


UPDATE - FIXED

First, I rolled back to 3.1

I plugged in to the usb, deleted all the Duokan folders and files, and then re-loaded and re-installed. This time I will not update to 3.3

Well, the first thing to NOT DO is double post.

Sorry. Novice on pretty much every level here.

When I installed Duokan 2012 R1.1 Stable on my Kindle Keyboard 3G (GB) about a year ago, I did a factory reset, thereby getting rid of the jailbreak that I had installed earlier.

Now, I would like to have the Jailbreak back, in order to use USB networking with the VNC viewer to make the Kindle a second screen to my laptop (potentially interesting in bright sunlight).

Is it possible to install the jailbreak in parallel to Duokan?

I tried the usual method of installing the jailbreak, copying the corresponding `bin` file to the root directory, then rebooting. However, that did not work. Upon loading, there was a message that the update failed. I know that a similar message shows up even when jailbreak installation succeeds, but then the Kindle automatically reboots, and in my case it didn't. Nevertheless, I tried installing USB networking, but - no surprise - I could not activate it afterwards. So the jailbreak most likely did not work.

Would it have been an error 003 by any chance?

Try install the MR packages by: Menu -> Settings -> Menu -> Update Kindle

And with only one of them on the USB storage at any one time.

Oh, indeed that was it. No error messages at all during installation of jailbreak and USB networking support, only: Update successful. Your Kindle is restarting...

kindlevncviewer is working flawlessly now (well, within its limits), and Duokan is still running on the same device.
