Double check or triple check all your setting in both Calibre and on your device. |

Are all the settings now the same as before the problem started? I don't use it, but can't it produce a combined mobi/azw3? The above behavior change might apply to those combined book conversions also. Quote:
No reason to disturb the books which do not exhibit the problem. I am leaning towards an inadvertent change to the Calibre installation or its options. Possible differences in output format with the update and/or re-installation of Calibre. Yes, you can install rescue pack twice without harm. It would be nice to have it on the device, we can walk you through howto use it if you should ever need it. Last edited by knc1; 07-31-2017 at 10:20 PM. |

I will also install the rescue Peck just in case. Also not sure about the mobi/azw causing a problem so I will look at that as well. I think I have a book or two that might fall into that category. Thanks again |

The O.P. who asked this question must include the "remove problem books, their associated folders, and re-install them" when fixing the problem. * Just like Cinisajoy told him to do. (*) If the sidecar information directory for the book is left behind, then the Kindle will not repeat the "new addition" processing and it will look as if the problem is un-changed regardless of what 'fix' is used. # 14 28 0 Last edited by knc1; 08-01-2017 at 08:22 AM. |

It may be too late for you, but I have an idea on jailbreaking the manga model. Can you confirm your software version, and have you prevented it from ever doing a wifi update? If you have not, this definitely will not work. @knc1 I want to get your thoughts on this. Right now, the manga model and the US PW3 appear to have the same download: https://s3.amazonaws.com/firmwaredow...ite_5.8.10.bin I'm not ready to recommend anyone try this, because I have a differnt idea, but I am thinking about re-packaging this update into a FB02 package ( like the factory firmware ) , that has these three componenets. uboot from 5.8.10 update uImage from 5.8.10 update rootfs from vulnerable PW3 5.7.4 update. my understanding of the rootfs is that it should be separate from the uboot and the kernel ( uimage ), in enough ways that it should not brick the device., and the rootfs shoudl not have any hardware specific stuff that might break a pw3-32GB. I think the only significant differce between them are the board ID that are in uboot, and the amount of memory in uboot and the kernel, but I dont think any of the linux userland stuff is affected by that. At least when I do a diff on the extracted rootfs from 5.8.1 and 5.8.10, I don't see any references to hardware. What is your first impression on this based on gut feeling about how people have bricked before? Last edited by coplate; 08-01-2017 at 08:28 PM. |

I've done a mistake. I updated it to 5.8.10. When it shipped to me, it running on something like 5.9.x.xx After update, I think about JB. Another note, I updated my PP Manga with update_kindle_all_new_paperwhite_5.8.10.bin Last edited by anhyeuviolet; 08-02-2017 at 10:45 AM. |

Yes, if you have done an update, the thing I was thinking about definitely will not work. I will be trying to test it for future people who have right out of the box, but it is not ready to give to anyone. |

Checked with my friend.
PPW Manga out of box come with Kindle 5.8.9.0.1 (3175970011). As #1, it can be JBed, right ? // Look like I've done something too dump to make my PPW Manga un-JB-able |

IF we had the factory firmware for the PW3-32G available, but we DO NOT have that available. DO NOT use the PW3-4G factory firmware on the PW3-32G device, it will brick the device. People have tried that already and satisfied themselves that it produces a very expensive paperweight. |

@knc1 this is what I was thinking about in the previous post. As I recall from the bricking, it is because of a bad uBoot. I wonder if it is possible to put the uBoot and uImage from from 5.8.10, and the rootFS from PW3-4gb 5.7.4. I can inspect the rootFS with TestDisk, and I cannot see anything hardware specific in it ( at least, nothing major, all of that shoudl be in the kernal uImage. ), and I have a strong suspicion this would work. I am going to do this with the PW3-4G I have at home, just as a proof of concept, but to test on PW-32 I would need a volunteer to possibly brick thier device. @anhyeuviolet, do you think your friend would be interested in testing this at all? |
