👩🏻‍💻 my so-called sudo life - day 490: #KindleJailbreak edition 🆓 Regarding yesterday's post on the Kindle jailbreak: it is SO WORTH it. I hope I didn't discourage anyone by saying how much I struggled with it. Well, I had a 15 YEAR OLD device and the online tutorials didn't work with it. I finally managed to install KUAL after finding a Reddit thread that gave step-by-step advice for the Kindle 4 gen. I was really bummed that highlighting didn't work for it so I bit the bullet and got my hands on the cheapest e-reader I could find yesterday: a Kindle 11 gen with ads. Mind you, I'm in the Italian countryside at the moment and it's a miracle they had it in stock at my local superstore. I would have preferred a Kobo but it is what it is. Jailbreaking a recent Kindle is child's play. I was happy to see that it was not on the latest firmware, so it was easily jailbreakable. So: jailbreaking itinstalling a HotFix to prevent OTA updatesinstalling KUALinstalling KOreaderinstalling SimpleUIremoving adsinstalling custom transparent wallpaperstransferring books to it took a little over an hour. Easy peasy. The backlight was great at 2:30am (I was woken up by my child coughing and couldn't easily fall back asleep). Very happy that I can do highlights in KOreader and now the ultimate test is how I can transfer the highlights to my computer / Calibre. If you're on the fence, I'd say, go for it. This is the excellent guide I used: https://kindlemodding.org For inspo: look up #KOreader and #SimpleUI homepages to realize what you could do #MySoCalledSudoLife #Kindle #modding #jailbreak

On jailbreaking a forced-obscelescent Kindle ... "When my wife's beloved Kindle DX was bricked by obsolescence through no fault of her own, it gave me a frisson of excitement and anticipation to take on Darth Bezos and break open the Kindle so she could once again read her favorite books on one of the largest-format Kindle devices ever made." Bonus points for "Darth Bezos" 😁 https://www.zdnet.com/article/your-kindles-not-obsolete-it-needs-a-jailbreak-ill-show-you-how-its-done/ #Amazon #Kindle #Jailbreak #Tech

Amazon just pulled Kindle Store access from every Kindle released before 2013. The hardware still works. Your books still work. Side-loading EPUBs over USB still works. The fix is the same one that's worked since 2007 — and here's exactly how to do it, step by step: https://lk0.eu/bks901m #Bookstodon #ebooks #kindle #FediReads #OpenAccess

Po paru miesiącach oczekiwania (!) również w Europie pojawił się największy jak dotąd, 11-calowy Kindle Scribe 3 generacji. Można go już zamówić z wysyłką do Polski, choć tanio nie będzie. https://swiatczytnikow.pl/11-calowy-kindle-scribe-3-wreszcie-dostepny-w-europie-i-wysylany-do-polski/ #Kindle #KindleScribe

Nineteen books into the year so far and it’s time for one of those books that you have to read because people that read books tell you that you have to read this book! My next download onto my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) is going to be Crime and Punishment #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #Kindle #KindleFire #CrimeAndPunishment #FyodorDostoevsky #1001BooksYouMustReadBeforeYouDie

Ukazało się dziś nowe oprogramowanie dla Kindle w wersji 5.19.2. Naprawia ono drobne błędy, np. na liście słowników. Nowe funkcje dotyczą wyłącznie Kindle Scribe 3, który pozostaje wciąż niedostępny w Europie. https://swiatczytnikow.pl/oprogramowanie-5-19-2-dla-kindle-poprawa-bledu-slownika-i-nowe-funkcje-dla-niedostepnego-scribe-3/ #kindle

Po kilkunastu latach ciszy wraca Kindle Mate – narzędzie do eksportu podkreśleń i słówek z Kindle. Na razie w wersji dla Maca. A co z Windows? Stary KMate wciąż działa, choć z pewnymi ograniczeniami. https://swiatczytnikow.pl/kindle-mate-wraca-po-latach-nowa-wersja-dla-maca-i-o-tym-jak-korzystac-ze-starej-dla-windows/ #kindle

Czytniki Kindle służą tylko do czytania książek? Niekoniecznie. Projekt ReKindle pokazuje, ile da się jeszcze wycisnąć z przeglądarki w czytniku Amazona — od nut i RSS po… Dooma 😄 https://swiatczytnikow.pl/rekindle-potezny-zbior-aplikacji-webowych-dla-czytnikow-kindle-przydatne-narzedzie-czy-tylko-ciekawostka/ #kindle
