And on "Kindle tree" screen now displays "amazonkindle" instead of just "Kindle". Don't know, maybe it can tell something to you. It started about the same time when Kindle stopped booting in diags mode. Last edited by murz_07; 02-28-2012 at 10:11 AM. |

Anyway, that is what I want, even if I have to build it all myself... I am studying how to flash large images in segments now, so we do not need the data.tar.gz and RUNME.sh step. I am hoping to provide a "One Button Solution" that will do everything for you after you decide what you want... |

I think the amazon Kindle screen is a factory reset screen. Mine did that too...

I have just tryed to boot in diags and saw the message "your battery is empty"
I plugged Kilndle into PC and after 10 minutes "kindle tree" appeared. But I don't know is it charging after this. I don't have wall charger and can't boot in fastboot mode so how can I charge battery to be 100% sure that it's charging? |

If your charging device (PC, Laptop) has a "High Current" USB port - use that. OR If you have a "powered hub" use that - they often support "High Current" USB devices. Note; If your host computer has a "High Current" USB port - also use that while doing the communications with the Kindle - that can also make a difference. |

Now when I boot in fastboot mode I can see this:
"Другие устройства" = "other devices" Where can I find some driver? |

You can look at the details in properties for your uninstalled device. It should be x01949/0xd0d0 for fastboot mode. The nice thing about being in fastboot mode is it does a good job recharging the battery. Leave it connected in fastboot mode to recharge it for several hours (overnight is better). fastboot makes a good battery charger. ;-) With a kindle fastboot tool, you can do "./fastboot getvar serial" to see your serial number. You might need to do "sudo ./fastboot getvar serial" depending on your permissions settings. You cannot flash mmcblk0p1 from fastboot -- the image file is too big. You can flash mmcblk0p2 (diags) from fastboot, then boot to it, then copy your restore mmcblk0p1 from an image file on the usb drive using the "dd" command. Details are provide in other posts in this thread and in the "Select Boot..." thread. I will make this process simpler in the future. Last edited by geekmaster; 02-28-2012 at 11:12 AM. |

In linux you can list your attached USB devices with "lsusb", which shows VID:PID in the output. It shows internal hubs as devices, so do not be confused by that. |

You could run the linux one in VirtualBox after you share the device with that VID:PID with the linux OS. In VirtualBox, hovering over the USB device in the drop down menu shows its VID:PID. Last edited by geekmaster; 02-28-2012 at 01:10 PM. |

Cygwin symlinks faked with shortcuts kind of sucked anyway... ;-) About the other question, perhaps your USB port is not working, or you might have a bad usb cable. Try different stuff. lsusb should show every USB device plugged in. The kindle 4 and 5 should show up as 0x1949:x00004 when in USB Drive mode, or 0x11949:0xdd0d0 if in fastboot mode, or 0x15a2:0x0052 if in usb downloader mode. If it is in usb networking mode, it might not show up here (not sure), but it sure will not show up in windows as a usb device that way (but a network device instead). There is also a USB serial mode, but I do not know the VID/PID for that (yet). Last edited by geekmaster; 02-28-2012 at 07:43 PM. |
