Kindle 3 mmcblk0p1 image needed
Hi all, my K3 keyboard decided to die on me just before christmas, have been trying to fix it since with no luck.
Can't seem to get the download to work on the pastebin you guys have here. If anyone could send me a working link that would be great! Thanks. |

It is a working link -
Other people have found the blockage to be at the receiving end. Have you checked that? Where are you trying to download to? Does your ISP (or federal government) have that hosting site firewalled? I.E: can you reach the hosting site at all? A tcptraceroute output might help resolving this. |

Those files are posted on another hosting service as single part files without the 10/week limit. Should be listed in the appropriate part of the de-bricking sticky. |

i have them both uncompressed and they are the correct size as stated in the guide.
the guide says to rename them kernel.bin and rootfs.bin is this correct? |

Not required, it will be a binary transfer.
But is a good idea to follow the guide, makes it easier for us to help. |
