The MicroFTX is out of stock at jim.sh and tindie, do you know other shops and/or boards that would work with 1.8v?
I'm wondering specifically if this one could work: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1PCS-...572439616.html Thanks! Last edited by Murphy2712; 03-14-2016 at 06:10 AM. |

Which makes it impossible to give a definite answer. It does appear to be a clone of an FTDI product. And you can probably save some money dealing with the vendor through alibaba.com rather than their captive retail store operation (aliexpress.com). Last edited by knc1; 03-14-2016 at 06:58 AM. |

i got all the soldering bit done fine, i can see the output in putty, happy days, but there is a problem, i cant get the password, when i enter
Code:
print("fiona%s"%hashlib.md5(*myserialno*\n".encode('utf-8')).hexdigest()[13:16]) EDIT i also cant seem to get the console to see my keyboard presses, it just boots normally ignoring the keyboard presses Last edited by gaspoweredcat; 03-16-2016 at 12:24 PM. |

If the number is odd, then one is missing or one is extra. |

"Serial Jailbreaking your fw 5.6.x Kindle for Dummies" does not work on FW 5.7.2 / 5.7.2.1
№№4.1 : "...tapping keys on your keyboard" ..."Text will keep scrolling until the boot is interrupted"... boot can not be stopped. |

Hold the key down, don't try to catch the prompt - nobody's reflexes are fast enough. |

Enable a capture log of the terminal emulator you are using, capture all output including the prompt you are trying to capture.
Use the 'advanced editor' to attach the log file. Have you confirmed that the Kindle can "see" your keystrokes? |

It has to be a problem with your local setup.
I just unpacked with KindleTool 5.6.5, 5.7.2, 5.7.2.1 and 5.7.3.1 - NONE of them have a new build of u-boot included. Q.E.D: You have the same u-boot as everyone else, it is a problem with your setup. |

If they where, they would be echoed and show up in that serial line capture log. The problem is with your setup. How did you determine that your setup is sending characters to the Kindle? |

I have a question about re-jailbreak:
Do I have to re-install all packages after firmware upgraded and re-jailbroken? Thanks. |
