Don't know if everyone has figured this out but actually the steps are 1) Click menu 2)move cursor to settings 3) Click menu 4) click restart It took me a while to figure out that the restart wasn't in the settings screen

My best guess is a problem with the cord. I wonder when the problem started, or has it always been a problem? My kindle will send messages that it wants to shut down, even when every thing is plugged in. Then it will self correct sometimes itself.

Hey guys, I know this thread concerns the screen, but I have a quick question. Has anyone tried loading the Kindle software on this thing & read a book? Are the books in color? The only reason I'm asking is because that's the only reason I would buy this.

Try slowly pulling up the corner on the bottom of the kindle. It should pull away from the protector. Then pull it off. This happened to me the first time I install the protector. Once you get the corner up it will come off easy. I did have to tabs but pulled it off accidentally when installing.

You can make Google your default search method. You can also make Chrome your default launcher instead of IE, which is what I've done. You could do the same with Firefox or something else you prefer. I'm still a newbie with this device, but I know this much for sure.

I'm using it for over a month now... has never hung on me even once. I dont think the case has anything to do with this... Probably you should consider writing to Kindle customer care.

I went to kindle's live chat and got the following informtion; They will need to insert nail between the case and the Kindle and move the nail from one edge to another. The case will come loose and pop-up and thus, they'll be able to take it out.

I removed my Kindle by gently taking my fingers and pulling the Kindle away from the sticky part. I had no problems reattaching the Kindle back to the sticky part and it has stayed in place. I am sure that the more you do this, that sticky part will soon lose the stickiness.

We have the same problem. I was going to try to find someone to salvage the tablet due to it quitting not long after we got it. But finding someone to replace the screen has been the biggest problem. Even custom shops have not been able to do anything with it. If you find anyone, please share. I wish you luck in your endeavor.

Yes, when I close mine my kindle turns off or goes to sleep however you want to look at it. When I open it, my kindle opens to the lock screen.

I've had my Kindle 2 for about a month, I preordered it, and yes, I LOVE IT. However, I have not noticed this problem and just checked myKindle 2, and cannot see any evidence of previous screens, no matter how I try. Maybe an issue with yours? I can't even seem to make it happen.

I have a kindle with a flap style case and stretchy band. I toss the flap over the top and use the band to position it in the middle of the handles. It blocks the screen but I'd much rather watch a movie than see the screen anyway.

I left my Kindle with my wife for 60 seconds while I moved the car, and she managed to get this screen up.. How did she manage do to it? The hard restart that Mustafa speaks of worked just fine.. I just want to know how she managed to get the screen up and make it stay up.

I was fairly happy with my Sony PRS-505 until it started locking up on me for no particular reason. I am fairly technical and tried a lot of things to get the unit back in service. No go. I am also very unhappy with the sony reader store web site. Coincidentally I won a Kindle in a raffle and have to say am delighted with both the reader and the content available for it. I had a ton of educational PDF files that I am e-mailing to the Kindle and am overall stunned by the quality of the product and service. It looks like there is some competition on the way with the Archos 9 and other Atom-based tablets, so hopefully that will moderate the price.
