@nasser: Oh no. If one would need KOReader on Kindle Amazon would likely deliver it and not require its customers to JB their brand new product (maybe void warranty*) just to be able to use it.
*) Executing programs which return a root shell by accident should never void warranty. Anyhow many manufacturers claim that warranty is lost by JB - there are a lot of discussions about this topic in the internet. No need to start a new one here. Usually Amazon does not check whether Kindles are JB when exchanging them. Actually they have replaced also Kindles without warranty. Last edited by Yourcat; 08-12-2016 at 12:57 AM.

hello, i have a rather strange problem after reinstalling koreader. i did this numeoues times and this is the first time this happened. i view my files in landscape clockwise. for some reason, now even my filemanager (after starting koreader) is in landscape mode. that wouldnt be so bad, the biggest problem is that its in counterclockwise landscape mode. i havent got the slightest clue how to change it. looked into settings files via file manager, advanced settings in koreader. found nothing. please help
DLANDSCAPE_CLOCKWISE_ROTATION is set to true //also why when i set my sd card as the default folder, after opening koreader, it almost always shows as empty? i have to go one to mnt and back to sd to see the files Last edited by hkckoo; 08-11-2016 at 05:08 PM. |

sd card?
Kindles do not have an sd card. I will save you the trouble of reading the moderator notice in the first post - - Your in the wrong forum, see: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=276 |

After changing my email in the account without thinking (<<paranoid) I couldn't post anymore yesterday...so after a good night sleep I registered again so I can help you out. It's only a minor thing to get it running...at least on KT3 black ....let's see if this works on your KT3 white as well. -Download "nightly" v2015.11-533-g1d250c -Install it -Open file /mnt/us/koreader/frontend/device/kindle/device.lua (leafpad is fine....or whatever you prefer) -Change line 120 : touch_dev = "/dev/input/event1", to touch_dev = "/dev/input/event0", -Change line 354 : self.input.open(/dev/input/event1") to self.input.open(/dev/input/event0") -Save file You should be good to go Let me know if this equally works on KT3W. Greets wodan EDIT: the codebits are marked for confirmation DEVICE: Kindle Basic 2 (KT3 black) PLATFORM: Heisenberg BOARD: eanab rev. 17 DEVICE CODE: G000K9 FW: 5.8.1.1 (2987430003) Last edited by wodan16; 08-14-2016 at 05:27 PM.

I'm afraid your fix didn't work on my KT3W... (Serial G000KA, FW 5.8.0) Looks like some separate entries and modules have to be added for the KT3B and KT3W in the Lua code by the maintainers... |

The entries are there for 0DT , 0K9 and 0KA. Thx Just to make sure I didn't tell you wrong There is also a file called crash.log that would be interesting to see (/mnt/us/koreader) Last edited by wodan16; 08-14-2016 at 11:15 PM. |

I had made the change for line 354 in a different place. Had searched for "self.input.open" and without checking the line number, made the change in the wrong line! I now edited the correct line and KOReader is working on my KT3. Loaded a few pdfs( What? Yes! So busy hacking, I haven't even put books on my new kindle) and they open fine under KOReader. Only Amazon's Kindle guide (azw3) is not showing up in KOReader's file manager? Thanks again, Kodan! |

But after you put up that note about goodies in the factory image, I'm wanting to keep the unsullied 5.8.0! |

I hear you with the books...same here...I thought I'll read a lot more books with it...but it looks like what Im actually reading the last 9 days is a forum with ppl rambling. Yeah every device has an init string in there...so there are a couple of lines looking like each other. Glad to hear it worked. Enjoy Wodan |

Is it just the Amazon Kindle guide or is it any azw3 format book (I recall there was a recent 'fix' in azw3 handling). PS: Been here over 4 years, and have yet to hear of someone reading the Amazon Kindle Guide. |
