Kindle Keyboard Screen Saver Hack - Problem
Greetings,

It has been a long while since I've posted here, but I've run into a problem with my Kindle... so I've returned!

I ran the sceensaver hack on my Kindle Keyboard a long time ago, and have been running my own screensavers. They have my email address listed, so if I lose my Kinde... hopefully somebody will contact me. Anyway, my email address recently changed... so I tried to update my screensavers. No such luck! All I'm getting is a white screen.

I loaded the new images into the same directory that the old ones were in. They're JPG files and they're 600x800.

Can anybody help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?

I just happened to think... I'll bet I need to do a hard reboot. I'm doing that now... ... ... ... ... ... ...

Yep! Worked like a charm! Sorry to bother you all!

I use the covers mode on my Kindle Touch -- there is an option to add an overlay containing the contents of the Personal Info option under Kindle Settings.

No need to modify images -- just update contents of settings info.

Unfortunately, that's a K5-only feature, and the OP's on a K3 .
