So it appears that you need to reinstall the jailbreak.

@geekmaster: Ooops. Missed it on the tablet! :x Thanks!

@mr ploppy: Update your jailbreak or add the package name to the whitelist (linkjail/etc/whitelist).

Thanks. Took me a while to find an uninstaller for the jailbreak, but it works now.

Great idea, but needs a little work. Here's what it looks like on my k2i. I saw somewhere that there could be up to 11 font size entries in that array on the DX... that might be too many for this little screen : )

ETA: Never mind. Changing font size list to 18, 19, ..., 29, 30 did the trick. Everything fits great now. Would be cool if this could be the default list in fontfix.pref for k2i installs.

Oh and the file is DOS-format leaving a stray ^M after the first line, convert that to UNIX

I've tried this a couple of times, with no success. I have a Kindle Keyboard 3.4, with the latest jailbreak and font hack installed. When I run UpdateYourKindle with update_fontfix_0.2_k3g_install.bin
my Kindle goes through the update process, but nothing changes. And there is no fontfix folder added to root.
And ideas?

On my side it worked perfectly. I have the Kindle Keyboard with 3G. I needed to update the jailbreak, after which this update worked smoothly. Indeed, as the author says in the readme file, I cannot understand why this is not part of the official setup.

Thank you for a good job!

Still the same problem. The update is recognized, the Kindle goes through the update process, but afterwards, nothing seems to have changed. Out of curiosity, I even tried the bin update file for Kindle 3gb, and, of course, it wouldn't run.The only thing I have outside the ordinary is that I replaced the serif fonts in the most recent font hack with Georgia2 fonts. But the stock font sizing works with those fonts, so I can't imagine why there would be a problem with this font hack.

I do also have launchpad and kindlepdfreader installed...

Is this ever likely to work on the Paperwhite? I had a play with one in a local shop, it looks good but has the same "very small to very large" font size problem as the old Kindles.

Do you mean just changing the font sizes themselves or the full modification that's here? If you are looking for having the Aa sizes in a narrower range from default on the PW, then you can JB the PW and install the JBPatch which supports modifying the font sizes. See the following:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=700

https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/JBPatch#Patches

If you mean the nice fancy mod that was developed in this thread, then you will need to find someone who has a PW, is interested in doing this mod, and has the prerequisite java programming understanding (I don't). I suspect that with every bin update Amazon pushes out, that the hack would need to be "remade" due to java obfuscation since I have read that ixtab has had issues with the collections manager with the PW updates. However, don't take what I write here as any expert advice.... I am only a kindle developer in my dreams...
