I think hacking an ad supported kindle would really void your warranty. Amazon replaced a defective kindle for me with the screen saver and font hack; I don't think they'll be so generous with a hacked KSO.

I'm from Ireland and going to the US next week. I was going to buy the Kindle from the US online store (the only way to buy a Kindle in Ireland), but I had a look at the BestBuy website and came across the Special Offers Kindle.
If I buy an SO Kindle in the US, would it still function properly once I brought it home to Ireland? |

enable showing of hidden and archive folders (windows file settings), then go to your kindle's root. Find the new, and shady, ninja "system" folder. Delete that EVIL .assets folder. Make a new text document named x.TXT. The go up one level. Press SHIFT+Right Click on system. Click "open command window here" then type: rename x.txt .assets Then set the resulting file as read-only. Your kindle will display "Please connect wirelessly to download the latest ads" YAY!!! ![]() ![]() Also, that's about the closest thing Amazon has ever come (and who knows, probably ever will come) close to custom screensavers. |
