My Old Kindle Woes

February 22, 2025

#koreader #raspberrypi #kindle #100DaysToOffload So I use a kindle 4th gen (the touch version). A few days ago I started to flash the internal storage of the kindle with the raspberry pi imager, i thought it was the SD card i forgot to plug in. So i reset the device (thank god i have a backup of my .epub file). Then after restoring the device, text to speech did not work and the device is so old i could not register it to see if it would fix it. So I started to jailbreak it to put KOreader on it. It has been stuck on the boot screen for 2 days. Now it's dead I am charging it to try to revive it.

Update

Its working again, but it is not jailbroken
