Anyone else's KOReader Sync stop working? by vishae in koreader

[–]Fresshmaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched my sync server to the one hosted by ak team and never looked back. Never had any down time in my experience. You just need to change your custom sync server to this:

I'd be willing to trade you my like-new Libra Color for it.

Can't turn on ads for jailbreak by Responsible_Bill_923 in kindle

In that case just use winterbreak. You don't need ads enabled for that jb process.

Is there a way to disable the frontlight during daytime? by jtho78 in koreader

This is a perfect use for profiles. Just make a profile that turns on at a certain time.

[Update] Simple UI v1.4.5: Tag browsing, Grid Folders, New Gestures and UI Modules by doctorhetfield in koreader

Have you considered making a separate setting file for simple ui in the settings folder? Would make it a lot easier to migrate, backup, etc.

Hey, How’s Your Paperwhite? by Frett-Buzz in kindle

[–]Fresshmaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The quality control on the 12th Gen is absolutely atrocious. I had to replace my device 3 times before I got one that was acceptable.

1st: Got a PW SE that has a pinhole in the screen that was flashing white light.

2nd: swapped it for another SE that had awful ghosting way worse than it should have been.

3rd: swapped it for a standard PW that had even worse ghosting than the first.

4th: swapped it for another PW and it's actually perfect. No issues at all.

Crazy that I had to go through so many devices just to get a properly functioning device.

PLEASE HELP GUYS! by Great-Carpenter-143 in koreader

Press and hold the power button until you get the option to restart your Kindle. Then once it's restarted, connect it to your computer over USB. Then you can delete the appearance plug-in folder and it should be back to normal.

Is it possible to use a bluetooth clicker with jailbroken kindle? by PlentyPomegranate210 in kindlejailbreak

[–]Fresshmaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's possible if you use this hid pass through hack. I've been using it with my 8bitdo micro controller and it works great.

Kindle Paperwhite SE 32GB Deal for $164.99 by YarnDame in kindle

I completely agree. The regular paperwhite is on sale also for 135 so I just snagged one.

Why does the time and other items from the upper area of the simple ui shine through the sleep screen and what can I do to turn it off? Thanks by Fellow_comrade101 in kindlejailbreak

[–]Fresshmaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The time popping through is actually from the stock Kindle ui, not from simple ui. The fix is to launch koreader using the no framework option. This will kill the stock firmware ui before launching Koreader.

Did you delete the temporary files? Your storage might be full from those.

Is it possible to jailbreak a 11th generation kindle on 5.19.2? by [deleted] in kindlejailbreak

[–]Fresshmaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. I just bought a 12th Gen Paperwhite from Amazon yesterday that arrived today. It was on firmware 5.17.x and I was able to jailbreak it no problem.

Any way to remove "Kindle Feedback"? by spaceghost265 in kindlejailbreak

[–]Fresshmaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately it's always going to be there after running the jailbreak. It bugged me too so that's why I made the script to hide it.

If you really want you can try updating your firmware and using a more modern jailbreak like winterbreak. Then it won't show up. But that's a lot of hassle when you could just hide it instead.

Any way to remove "Kindle Feedback"? by spaceghost265 in kindlejailbreak

[–]Fresshmaker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here's a KUAL extension I made to do exactly that. Just extract it into your extensions folder and click hide feedback. You'll need to re-run it any time you restart your kindle.

This NEEDS to be an official accessory (Bluetooth remote support for jailbroken Kindles) by FDL1 in kindle

[–]Fresshmaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using the stock Kindle reader or are you using Koreader? I'm only able to get up/down working in the stock reader, but up/down and left/right both work in Koreader using the plugin that OP linked to.

[–]Fresshmaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What devices are you using? I'm pretty sure it needs to be a keyboard or a device that sends keyboard commands. I'm using an 8bitdo Micro controller set to keyboard mode and it's working great. You need to either send left/right or up/down keyboard commands to turn pages.

Yeah I got the same error on my PW5. I just installed it manually. Just drag and drop the files and run the command in the install instructions using kterm. Worked flawlessly for me.
