my kindle keyboard is showing lines more than half of page.
hello guys,
I am having kindle keyboard from last two and half year. A week before a strange thing has happened to my kindle. It is showing half of page of lines, half screen frozen, I don't know the exact problem. I tried to reboot, but still is not working as normal. please suggest the solution to rectify this problem.

thanks in advance

It sure sounds like a physically broken screen, like if was dropped or otherwise stressed just a little too hard.

Yes, that sounds like a broken screen. Post a pic if you can.

Sadly, Penforhire and Pidgeon are correct...it has a broken screen.

Very sorry about that. There's not much of an option in repairing a broken screen anywhere. I'm fairly certain that's the single most expensive component of an eink reader and it costs more than it's worth to replace it. You may be able to find a good used Kindle Keyboard for a reasonable amount of money.
