2.5 update = 2.5.2!

[Tabby]

Thanks Heather! As others with a K2i reported...it worked like a charm!

[disneygal]

THanks so much guys!

I had version 2.3 and was able to upgrade to 2.3.3 and then 2.3.4, and then 2.5.2 all thanks to the links on this board.  Thanks again so much off to create categories.

I have K2US and am on v. 2.3.3.  I'd taken my hacks off in preparation for 2.5.2, but I just put the font hack back on my Kindle so that I could grab the .bin file when it's downloaded.  As soon as I get it I'll upload it for everyone.

How generous! You must have been brought up properly.

I hear it runs in the family.
And, like her looks, she gets most of it from her mum.

Just sayin.....

How true.  If you only knew.........

I was definitely raised right -- thanks Mom!

And Geoff, I actually get my looks from my Dad -- but I get my brains and my ridiculously fast wit from my Mom.

That hurts. I used to look better than I do now.    Of course, your dad is quite handsome, so I guess it's ok.

I mean, I LOOK like Dad -- same profile, nose, etc., ding dong.    But you're very pretty.  Kelli gets her looks from you.  You're both very pretty.

You're back in the will. Of course, we've now attempted to hijack this thread, so I guess we'd better knock it off.  Love ya.

Now i just wish I could use my custom screensavers.

Megan, if you are able to capture this file, you will be just as popular as Luvmy4brats was last night.  And I agree, you were raised right, thanks for volunteering to do this if you receive the update.  From one person (me) that has been waiting forever for this update - THANKS!

[Crystalmes]

so am I reading right that I can't use that link now for K2i?

[Luvmy4brats]

You can use it for your k2i

If you have 2.3.4 you just use that file, if you're on any other version, you'll need to update to 2.3.4 before you can update to 2.5.2

You can find them here:

If anyone can do it, she can. (Unbiased comment)

[Crystalmes]

Even though it says unapproved? Or is that because I am not logged in?

No problem!  I'd love to be able to help.    And thanks!!

It looks like those links were taken down. hhmm.. I think that's because the person who did those took the files from other people (including me) and created his own zip files and uploaded them.

What version do you have now? I'll see if I can't get you the ones you need posted over here.

This goes to 2.3.3

Just applied the v2.5.2 update to both of my K2i's from v2.3.4.  Worked perfectly!  Thanks.  Now I can't wait for updated screensaver hacks.  I want my pictures back!  (I know; some people are never satisfied.) 

[Crystalmes]

I have been drooling all day at work!!!!! Can't wait to get home!

[fuschiahedgehog]

The updates (2.3.3 => 2.3.4 and  2.3.4 => 2.5.2) worked like a charm on my K2i!  Thanks much!

[tsger]

I am still on 2.3.4.  I noticed that although I have whispernet turned on, I have no bars.  It has been that way most of the day.  I tried rebooting, hoping maybe the update was waiting to be installed.  NOPE.  I was hoping to wait for the official Amazon update, but now I am contemplating updating myself with the .bin files posted here already. 

What do  you all think?  Could that "cure" my lack of wireless connectivity?

[larryb52]

I was just thinking about giving up the wait for 2.5.2 & put a hack on when I turned on my kindle & I noticed a difference, small difference in the font but it was better & it had indeed updated...nice, now I'm not sure on the hack...
