Help. Hacked Kindle 3 unusable. Cannot access settings menu.

NickyRay · 01-24-2011, 01:08 AM

Hi, I rooted and applied the latest SS hack and Font hack to my Kindle 3. I tried to apply a font set and my Kindle 3 and now graphics are glitchy and I can no longer go to the settings menu to set to factory defaults or apply the un-install. What's up?

I managed to do a factory reset.

Because the last thing I did was apply a font, naturally it must have been that font pack that screwed up the GUI. So I applied a different font set. This corrected the GUI enough that I could access the menus and do a factory reset.

Copy the original fonts back into the kindle's font folder.
