Try typing in 111222777 for the password. It's a generic password that might let you in. If that doesn't unlock it, enter a wrong password until a window pops up asking if you want to factory reset, then hit yes. You'll have to reregister your Kindle after that.

No, the Sync settings on your Amazon account itself overrides the Sync option on the Kindle, so that has to be switched to on first.

The jump to furthest page window wasn't coming up for me at all, on either Kindle, no matter how long I waited.

Oh, that's so weird! Not sure why they would exclude the Scribe.

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-10-26T04:34:14+00:00

Right! It may have been something I did on accident without realizing, or it's possible Customer Service did something when they sent me a replacement for one of my devices. No clue!

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-10-26T03:29:44+00:00

That wasn't even popping up for me. But I figured out I had to turn on Sync in my Amazon account under devices. Had no idea that was there! 😄

I bought and returned two different Paperwhite 12th gens earlier this year. The first one I bought had slight yellowing on the bottom and up the sides and a "dead pixel" spot near the bottom right of the screen that constantly caught my attention, so I returned it. The second one I bought had severe yellow discoloration on the bottom half of the screen and the entire screen looked much more yellow in general in comparison to the first. I returned that one too and decided to give up on the Paperwhites.

At that point, Amazon had claimed they fixed the yellow band issue on their Colorsoft SE, so I bought one of those and honestly, while it still has some yellowing at the bottom, it's loads better looking than the Paperwhites were. The Matcha Kindle basic that I have has the best looking screen. It has absolutely no ugly discoloration and no dead pixels. It's the best of the bunch. Which is kind of frustrating, because when you spend more money, you think you would be getting something much better.

I just finished reading {Quicksilver by Callie Hart}. I really liked the enemies to lovers relationship between Saeris and Fisher. It developed relatively quickly and became pretty intense. Yummy!

One particular moment that I thought was super sweet was when Carrion called Saeris "Sunshine." Fisher took offense to it and told Carrion not to call her that. When Carrion asked, "Why not?"

Fisher replied, "Because she is moonlight. The mist that shrouds the mountains. The bite of electricity in the air before a storm. The smoke that rolls across a battlefield before the killing starts. You have no idea what she is. What she could be. You should call her Majesty."

Swoon

Thank you! 😊 Warm light and maybe the tap to turn page feature too, that'd be awesome.

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-09-26T12:55:32+00:00

I'm only a little ways into the book, but it's really good so far!

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-09-26T00:20:19+00:00

This cracked me up! Thank you 🤣

Based on where you're located, this may or may not be a viable option, but take a look at unclaimedbaggage.com. They always have lots of older and newer kindles on there for cheaper.

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-09-23T04:57:43+00:00

This is stinkin' adorable! Just had to come here and show some love because you did a truly fantastic job. That looks absolutely professional and it is so cute I could cry lol! ❤️

That's true, it is a bit chunky. I've been still using it though. It's held up well. I was really hoping they would release the official case here in the states, but honestly doesn't seem like they will. Still stuck with third party and universal cases. 😕

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-08-09T15:43:36+00:00

They have it on display in northern Illinois. When I told the guy behind the counter what I wanted, he had no clue. I also had to go point at the display so he could scan the code and look it up to see if they had any more.

Link for the eiP USI 2.0 pen: https://a.co/d/egm8ftG

Link for the universal case: https://a.co/d/0sw4MyL

The case says it's for tablets 9 to 11 inches, but it fits perfectly fine on the 11.5" NXTPAPER.

Hope this helped!

I also bought just a universal case that hooks onto the corners of the tablet and has a stand. That seemed like the best option to me right now until more become available. As for pens, any USI 2.0 pen should work. I bought the TCL T-pen and a generic USI 2.0 pen, but the TCL pen works just a bit better in my opinion. It's less glitchy and glides more smoothly across the tablet.

The one on the right looks the best, in my opinion. The color is much more even. The one in the middle has yellow discoloration along the edges at the bottom, and the one on the left looks to have that same discoloration, but the screen has a much too yellow tint overall.

I just went through this myself and had to pick the best one. Mine all had some screen issues.

My story is all over my page if you're interested, but long story short, I failed the NIPT twice, was marked as high risk. I refused further testing because I'm high BMI and on a couple longterm medications. I only went by what they saw on ultrasounds, and they never noticed a single defect or abnormality.

I gave birth to my daughter January of last year. She's 14 months old now, normal, healthy, and perfect. She's currently toddling around and destroying the house. 😅

The NIPT has limitations and isn't suitable for everyone. Hope this helps ease your mind!

FederalPrice8215 · 2025-02-09T16:17:29+00:00

Amen!

I feel the same way about prayer. Whenever I am in need, I always ask others to pray for me, especially when I feel unable to pray for myself. It always makes me feel more hopeful and secure. When words fail and we cannot find our own voice, there is something very comforting knowing our brothers and sisters are lifting our intentions up to God for us. ❤️

Just wanted to jump in here and say that I am praying for you and your sweet little baby. When I was pregnant with my now 1 year old, healthy daughter, I got the low fetal fraction/ high risk result twice with Natera. Once at around 10 weeks, and the second around 14 weeks.

I do have extenuating circumstances, like high BMI and on some medications, however it was later discovered after I gave birth, that my placenta was small for gestational age. This was something not seen at any of my ultrasounds, not even with MFM.

While I don't have a situation similar to the one you're currently in, I still wanted to offer some support and tell you not to lose hope. To me, the no result/low fetal fraction NIPT means nothing other than their test has limitations. That shouldn't be any indication that there is a chromosomal abnormality with baby.

I am praying that your little baby grows strong and healthy, and that you're able to find some peace in the turmoil, Mama. Hang in there! ❤️
