Help with my screensavers?

zingzicolas · 09-15-2012, 01:05 PM

Hi, everyone! Thank you for taking time to read my inquiry. I need your help. So, I've been installing stuffs to my Kindle Touch with Special Offers so I could remove them and customize the screensavers. I don't know what caused it but when I try to turn off my Kindle, it just freezes to the page where I left off. Like, when I go to the menu and turn it off, it just shows the menu page but it doesn't respond (it's off). I just want to know how to fix this.

I already uninstalled everything I installed and after that reset my device to the factory settings.

Still doesn't do it.

Help please? It would be so nice if anyone of you could. Thank you very much again.

We can not diagnose what your problem might be until you tell us exactly what "stuffs" you installed, what "stuffs" you un-installed, and how you removed your screen-saver hack.

Not only are the names important, the order you did things in is important.

I don't think you uninstalled everything. I had that problem before, just need to uninstall Yifan Lu custom screensaver http://yifan.lu/p/custom-screensaver/

Then use Jbpatch to disable Ads and use simple screensaver instead.

Factory reset does not uninstall hacks. It just breaks some of them. To uninstall hacks, you need to either run their uninstallers, or flash your firmware back to a "pre-hack" condition (simple debricking method).

Thank you everyone for the wonderful responses!

Ilogis was right, I did not get to uninstall everything. Still, I'll keep in mind everything you've told me.
