Do you have the font and/or screensaver hack installed? If so, you'll have to uninstall it before doing any upgrade. Other than that, make sure you got the right upgrade file for your device.
I do not have any types of hacks installed. I wasn't sure which version I had so I called Amazon and was told K2i so I grabbed Kindle global. I tried to download again and I have the same problem  |

What version do you have currently?
This is only to go to 2.3.3
This is NOT the 2.5.2 update.
I still have 2.3.2  |

Many of my Kindle friends have no idea there's a firmware update coming out. I'm sure Amazon could handle the load. |

Got the update in London, UK yesterday evening. Was previously on 2.3.4. Wasn't sure I'd get this one over WN, as I've not got an OTA update before. All good though.

Just reading this.. turned WN on but not getting lots of bars downstairs so I'll plug it in overnight with WIN on and see. I have 2.5 that I D/L myself so we will see how it goes. I was on 2.3.4 prior to downloading 2.5. This is on my DX. My doctor has borrowed my K2 for months and heck I have no idea what version he has but I'm pretty sure he has no idea about updates.. not even sure if he's been reading... guess I need to make an appt just to find out.

Nothing here in good old Redmond, Washington. You'd think with all of us hardcore techheads here in the home of Amazon we'd be among the first...ah well...when it happens it happens  |

For those asking about the incremental updates (do I have to be at 2.3.3 to get the update?) - I was told when I contacted Amazon Kindle CS that the updates are cumulative. So you shouldn't need 2.3.3 to go to either 2.5 or 2.5.2. But my K2 and DX are at 2.3.3 so I don't have any way of testing it later.

I would have thought if you needed to upgrade in strict stages, Amazon wouldn't have removed the older update files and would instead be telling people on the updates page to upgrade to 2.3.3 etc in readiness. |

Agreed. I'm on 2.3 and not planning on updating unless I find out it's necessary. |

I'd also be quite upset with Amazon. I had to manually install 2.3 and have had WN on often enough since then that if I needed the update I should have gotten it. As it is, I've had WN on since the 2.5 announcement with the exception of a few days and I am still at 2.3. |

Wish there was a way I could hook up a siren to my kindle so it would start "whoop-whooping" when the update downloads.  Chcochibi - I still love your avatar...I always wonder why you have video of my Achmed (the terrorist)  |
