I works!
Thanks a lot!!!

But I still have a problem...
My Kindle's firmware version is 2.0.2 and I'm not able to upgrade to 2.5.
I downloaded the update file from amazon.com and put it into the root of my Kindle2.
But after pressing menu->settings (wait a second) -> menu the "Upgrade your kindle" is still inactive.
And when I look with my explorer on the root device of my Kindle2 the file were gone.
I thought this problem is done with the registration, but it isn't.
Could you please help me?
Thank you very much!
You are my last hope. (Writing to amazon.com did not work. They did not answer...)

Serial NO: B002A-....
Version: Kindle 2.0.2 (309510017)

And I did uninstall jailbreak. It also didn't work before I registered my Kindle as here described.

You're welcome!

You can set time/date using usbNetwork, but, if you want more simple solution - wait a few days, I'll add the solution to this thread.

Hi!

If the version number of your device firmware is less than 2.3 - you should try to install the update to version 2.3, and only then update to version 2.5.

Do you have a US version of Kindle?
Do you install any hacks before?

Thank you for your quick answer.
I really want to try that, but I can't find a download for any Update less then 2.5. (I thought to update one by one up to 2.5, but I really can't find the files to download)
Neither at amazon.com (they didn't answer my request) nor here at the forum.
Is there somewhere a download area where all update files are for download?
Hope there is something like that, I'm already a bit frustrated about amazon.com.
Thank you very much for your help.

Edit:
I found the download for 2.3 (special thanks to the upper ).
And it works great! (Also the update to 2.5)
Thank you very much for your help!
It's a great forum here!

Now I'm looking forward to your solution for changing the time!
Till then I look around here what else to find.

Thank you very much, It worked with me simply and perfectly.

I have regular Kindle DX 2.5.2 (US Version), What can I do to make wireless (2G or 3G) working outside US ?
Is there a solution ?
