So just be patient - presumably like all computers Kindles get themselves in a twist every so often and need a re-boot. I can now access my list of books, search for new purchases, "turn" pages swiftly, and have just downloaded a freebie classic which appeared speedily on my home page. This almost reached the end, then stopped, but I told myself patience was everything and in due course it put itself through several processes of internal digestion and eventually restored itself to apparently prime condition. Held down the on/off switch for well over 30 seconds, then it turned off, waited quite a while without touching it, then the screensaver tree and reader appeared, with a progress bar beneath. My Kindle has been irritating me for some time (it is almost 4 years old) - slow to respond, sometimes refused to search when I wanted to buy something, then this morning it froze altogether and I truly thought it had had it! Consulted this forum and proceeded according to advice of others. Note that disabling sleep mode will cause more battery drain.
To enable it, restart your Kindle by using Menu. You are disabling screensaver and sleep mode by doing this, your power button will stop working as well. On Kindle Touch, just enter "~ds" in a search box, you don't have to get into debug mode. NOTE: you do not enter the quotation marks! To get out of debug mode, type " debugoff". To enable it again, you will need to press Del Sym and then type "~resumeScreensaver". You will now be in debug mode.Īgain, press Del Sym and then type "~disableScreensaver". On Kindle 3, go to the home screen, press Del Sym, type " debugon" and press enter. Get out of sleep mode by removing your battery, or by connecting your Kindle to computer by USB cable. If this doesn't help, you can just turn off your screensaver, so you won't need your power button: Ĭlean and brush thoroughly metal components around and behind the power button, as well as related parts on the motherboard. Take apart your Kindle by watching this video (or another one if you have different model).
