Use current screen as screensaver?

Sin Jeong-hun · 02-17-2015, 10:19 PM

If I jailbreak a Paperwhite without Special Offer, is there any way to use current screen as the screensaver when I sleep the device? That is, keeping current screen, and not changing the screen to a picture.

The built-in pictures of the screensaver are quite awful; I especially dislike pictures of crammed pens or pencils like this http://www.ink-pens.com/post/1107500...amazons-kindle. Perhaps I have a different sense of beauty from that of the Kindle engineers, but I really do not see how those kind of pictures are pleasing to eyes.

Yup (it's known as the 'last' mode in the ScreenSavers hack, and is one of the few FW 5.x-only features of the hack, which is why you may not be familiar with it as a K3 owner).
