On: Kindle 3: Some Hidden Features

[pietrofmaggi]

From the Home, go to the search page and type:

  ;debugOn <enter>
  ~help <enter>

you have some commands available. To exit type

  ;debugOff <enter>

What can be done in debug mode? What about a root shell via USB?

[Edit] The "~exec" hack works only on a small portion of the Kindle 3 that has some test files left over by Amazon. Otherwise you have to jailbreak the kindle to gain access to it: http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=88004
