Can anyone confirm whether or not it is missing from any Kindle device at the most firmware version? |

Download the Amazon update image - Open with KindlTool - take rootfs.img out the resultant archive - mount it - look - report back. |

I downloaded 5.9.2.0.1 for the KOA2 since I might want to install it someday. extracted and mounted the image, and found /usr/bin/ds.sh I'm very disappointed they actually use the misleading property name preventScreenSaver I also found /usr/bin/deleteDemoModeFlagFile.sh which sets preventScreenSaver to 0, but one of the other 23 lines keeps that from working as a search string and is way too long to type anyway. I don't have a PW*, so I'm not going to download any of those images. |

You can get the latest binaries of KindleTool from NiLuJe's snapshots thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=225030 @j.p.s: Sorry, I forgot to mention where to get the binary. Another thing I forgot to mention was how to find the name of the file. Search the forum for "Search bar shortcuts" - There are a number of those posts here and at least some of them give the path and file name. But thanks a lot for looking up the information. There are a lot of people who read our postings, people who are not (yet) members ... So (re-)posting brief instructions on how to learn about the Kindle system was mostly aimed at our non-member audience. |
