Hey everyone,
first of all, thanks for this awesome forum! Since a couple of days, maybe weeks, I can not access wikipedia on my kindle 3 [edit: I was quite ignorant to it until now, but apparently I have a kindle 4 and not kindle 3, as Blossom wrote ![]() My current firmware version is "Kindle 4.1.0". The problem now is that, when I click on the section title, nothing happens. I can click on any section I want, it won't change a thing... I tried different articles on wikipedia, it is the same with every single one I tried. I also tried "article mode" and "web mode" (I do not know if they are called the same on english devices). Another thing I tried was accessing the "Desktop" wikipedia version and not the mobile version, which worked before I had this problem, but now I am always redirected to the mobile version. The links on other websites work fine (well, like before. the kindle obviously is not build for surfing in the web ![]() Also, the section titles, are shown in a very light grey, does this look the same at your devices? I do not remember how it looked before, but the way it is now, it seems wrong to me, as the section titles are hard to read. I made a picture of my kindle: ![]() Unfortunately, none of my friends has a kindle, otherwise I would have checked at their device, whether it is the same. Does anyone else have the same problem? Thanks for any help ![]() Last edited by Tabea; 10-16-2012 at 09:14 AM. |

Are you sure that's your firmware? That's the Kindle Firmware for a K4. The Kindle 3 also know as the Kindle Keyboard has a physical keyboard and uses 3x firmware.
Have you tried rebooting the Kindle. If that doesn't work a Factory reset may be needed. Make sure Airplane Mode is Off. Edit: You have a K4 not K3. I can tell from the pic now I looked closely. |

Thank you very much, Blossom!
I never rebooted the Kindle before, but that helped getting rid of the problem! Thank's a lot. |
