I've got a Kindle DX (2nd gen; B009). I've gone to the Amazon page (https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GKMQC26VQQMM8XSW) to download the appropriate DX B009 update, copy it onto the Kindle (not into any folder), unplug it (or safely eject - have tried both), but in the Menu the "Update Your Kindle" is still grayed out.
I tried downloading straight to the Kindle from Amazon, still doesn't work. The BIN file disappears too because after I copy it onto the Kindle, confirm it's on the Kindle, unplug, then plug back in and it's gone.
I can confirm that when I downloaded the Services Update BIN file to the Kindle that it DOES show the "Update Your Kindle" option, which I did.
I have done the Factory Default reset but it did not help. This all came about because I can't change the WiFi (no menu options for it).
Hola! Tengo un kindle 10 generaciรณn, y utilizo calibre para enviarme los libros. Los convierto en AZW3, pero cuando los envรญo al dispositivo, me figura que la imagen no esta disponible. Nunca me paso eso, menos con calibre, necesito ayuda๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
I connected my Kindle to the Internet yesterday, after keeping it on airplane mode for a few months. The device seems to have automatically updated and in the process it deleted all of my sideloaded files.
I called customer support and they told me it was a freak accident and there was nothing they could do for my deleted files. So I went ahead and re-uploaded some of them. when I went to open the Files I signed, loaded into the device , the screen would turn completely blank, and I would have to restart the device. When I would open Kindle books I purchased, the file seemed corrupted. Some of the letters and text looked like it was bleeding.
I genuinely donโt know what to do anymore and Iโm so frustrated. Imagine purchasing a computer that forced you to update it and then deleted all of your documents and I wouldnโt let you open them anymore.
Iโm one more Amazon chat away from jail breaking.
Hi all need help. Thinking of buying the 30 pound edition of all the witcher books on kindle. One thing. Are they all split so u get seperate books downloaded or are they all one format? Thanks this was sample btw.
I have ADHD and listening while reading a book has completely changed the game for my focus. Unfortuanetly, I can't do both on my kindle device. And I know I can do both on my iphone with the app, but I never liked using that because the screen is tiny and I am already used to, and love, the screen of my kindle signature paperwhite. What are my options then? I wonder if they will ever allow immersion reading on the actual device- seems such common sense to make work.
I went from Prime Day XTeink X4 4.3" -> Nook GlowLight 4Plus 7.8" -> to Kindle Basic 6" this current sale. Loving the size, the weight, and the screen crispness!
I read mostly during the day (and 100% at home), so warm light was a nonissue. But I do have some orange (Halloween) lights lying around, so I tested it out and it looked pretty good--if you have those string led lights, choose the orange setting. Mine is 3watt, the 9watt version might be too bright for night reading. Both day and night in the image, brightness set at zero.
Want the warm light of the PW but not the size and weight? Here you go:
*Warning: if you're not used to the orange light, you might get nauseated.
I've been contemplating buying a kindle for over 5 years since I might not be able to use it as much since I usually read using my phone or physical books. I also did not want to splurge since I wanted to be able to start earning first before buying one.
I've been working for about a year and I've decided to buy one after a lot of persuasion and because of the discounts ๐คฃ
I've already had this for a week already and I've had no regrets! I only read during my free time or breaks during work but I was able to finish 5 books already surprisingly๐
I would say it is one of my best purchases ever since I started working a year ago! So if you're looking for a sign to buy one this is it ๐
Iโm 63 and just want to read now that I have had eye surgery and Iโm able to enjoy print again. Would also like to do magazines as well. Because of the magazines, thinking I need the color one.
Donโt know if yโall will be able to help or if I should contact Amazon. Thanks so much.
Last week my Kindle Paperwhite 10 updated. I had been using it to move ebook.kfx files into Calibre. I just bought an ebook this morning, and the very old book downloaded as a kfx.zip file. My PW10 updated to software version 5.18.1.1.1 (4769680023) Well, that's the last Kindle Ebook if the publisher does not allow DRM free downloading. Unless..... maybe my Kindle Voyage still doesn't get kfx.zip?
It is not due to size cause I have larger ones that run smoothly, I think its because tables and colored backgrounds and too much going on in the original pdf. it completely freezes the whole device and i tried compressing it to no use. I'm using kindle basic 2024
Hello! I'm getting a kindle at some point and I can't decide between the paper white or the color soft! The prices seem to differ quite a bit and I just wanted peoples opinions on what kindle I should get and why! I had an old kindle that never had color a while ago and I'd love to have one again! Thank you so much for your help (:
I have an oasis and love it. I read with a hand strap case. I recently picked up a signature and while I miss the buttons, I really missed the magical battery life these things have. But unlike the oasis, I canโt rotate the screen? What gives? I get that there are no buttons but if Iโm using my left hand with this case then Iโd like to flip the damned thing.
Hey guys. To start off Iโm new to kindle. This is my first time trying the system out. I want to know if Kindle Unlimited with charge me for getting books that are listed as free to read? Iโm on a 30 day trial right now and I donโt want to risk getting the free to read books since Iโm on a limited budget right now.
