Kindle crash

Open sisyphose opened this issue 5 years ago • 26 comments

As everyone knows, Kindle is an important application after dpt cracking, but after I install Kindle, it will crash when turning pages. Do anyone have this problem?

I can't test but which system image you are using? The taobao one or official, or https://github.com/HappyZ/dpt-tools/issues/37? It would be good to specify this.

Also, you can check adb logcat for more details on why it crashes.

It is sad that hear your dpt is bricked. I hope those who have succeeded in cracking can donate to you like me. the #37 and #36 and official img both crash. i have cracked three dpt and all will crash when use kindle. but taobao'crack won't crash (Taobao service cracked, not our crack use taobao img). It's weried. it crash when flipping pages of your own uploaded book,but when read the book purchased from Amazon it will work well. Weried!!! I can buy you a new dpt at a 20% discount on Amazon. If you need it, please contact me. Thank you very much for your work.

@sisyphose haha, thanks. I guess if I can open a taobao store then..., jk. I do this for fun. Taking the risk of bricking the device is part of the plan, but I do not plan to buy another with much extra cost. I will see if shankerzhiwu can fix it. Thanks for all your donation to let me ship it internationally to him :)

@sisyphose hiya, very nice for your work and help to HappyZ!

  1. Is it the official version of kindle you are using? which version? I will try myself whever I got a chance.

  2. Please try this version if you have Bandu Netdisk: (credits to @p4s2wd, reportedly stable): https://pan.baidu.com/s/1B6b-J_0YiEKf21xEZqtSOw Also these 2 versions which might be optimized by Taobao: http://182.254.232.41/apptest/SONY/ Kindle_8.0.0.68.apk 2018-Oct-29 16:30:56 57.5M application/vnd.android.package-archive Kindle_V8.11.0.57.apk 2018-Nov-16 10:56:43 54.9M application/vnd.android.package-archive

  3. does all your book reading crashes when turning page? People from a Chinese bbs either reporting that behavior for non-amazon books (i.e. books from Amazon store works fine), or got this fixed already. I will try to get more info for you.

  1. Every version I had tryed, all crash.
  2. All crash 3.books from Amazon store works fine. Non-amazon books will crash. Thank u for your tips.I think it's the Kindle's page turning logic that triggered the bug, but only the non-Amazon store book crash, weried.

No problem. I guess I can only suggest AlReader now. It's power-saving and all-format supporting. Download from apkpure.com

the MonnReader + works well

sisyphose avatar Dec 22 '18 13:12 sisyphose

Kindle_V8.11.0.57.apk from http://182.254.232.41/apptest/SONY/ Sorry, I only read one book from kindle store. Don't know if it will crash when reading non-store book.

ultraboy avatar Dec 22 '18 13:12 ultraboy

For me kindle crashes when I try to read nytimes once I go into table of contents, then look at an article, kindle crashes. I think when I flip from the first page.

Kindle_V8.11.0.57.apk from http://182.254.232.41/apptest/SONY/ Sorry, I only read one book from kindle store. Don't know if it will crash when reading non-store book.

Today I found that book from kindle store would crash too,the only difference is that it can flip two pages before crash.

sisyphose avatar Dec 30 '18 04:12 sisyphose

looks like it crashes because

E/JavaBinder( 2141): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.amazon.kindlefc/com.amazon.kindle.UpgradePage}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

you can try to disable upgrade functions.

Is there a simple code? Or I will give up. Thank you

Not really. This is my guess. If in the app, there's a setting on automatic upgrade, disable it.

Another guess is if you turn off WiFi, it will not be able to check upgrade.

The best would be modifying kindle app and avoid the upgrade activity.

HappyZ avatar Dec 30 '18 05:12 HappyZ

The Kindle app will crash if I open any SAMPLE book.
