Can I ask how you replaced the battery? My kindle keyboard stopped working suddenly in the middle of an update in 2017 and would only charge for 5 seconds before shutting down. I have replaced it with an Oasis model but still prefer the keyboard and would love to get it up and running again.
@@martiriggs2003There are a few youtube videos showing you how to do it. You are going to need to pry the back off, and that really is the most difficult part. Just go slow, and be as gentle as you can. The battery itself will come out as soon as you remove two screws at the top of it. You place the new battery in, screw it in place, and snap the back into place and you are done. It took me less than 15 minutes, and I am pretty inept at technology.
@@AdelardRen I did it! I ordered the battery from Amazon that came with the tool to remove the back, plus some tiny screwdrivers. A guitar pick helped a lot too. It’s charging up like it never missed a beat.
@@LizzardBeth96I download books from my Amazon library and transfer via usb cable because I can’t get wireless to work even after updating. It’s an extra step but not that bad. I have a newer Kindle with working wireless, I still prefer reading on the older Kindle Keyboard though.
@@LizzardBeth96 You need a PC or laptop. Download the books on your PC in mobi format. Plug your kindle into the usb port of your pc, and drag and drop the book files to the documents folder.
I only use my old Kindle now because new ones have a reflective screen which is difficult to read in sunlight; something I'm surprised more people don't comment on.
I was curious about e-readers, but I didn't wanted to shell out the money for one without _knowing_ I would use it. I have a habit of buying hobby items only to immediately drop them. So, my mom reminded me that my late grandmother had a bunch of kindles I could pick from. I gave her old Kindle Keyboard a fresh battery and it works like a charm! Not sure why, but I'm reading so much _more_ with it. The page turn buttons are great, and I can even read in the bathtub with my trusty Ziploc bag! I wasn't a fan of the rotating screensavers, but it was super easy to jailbreak so I could keep it on the bird and fish screensavers that I liked. Now I don't know if I even want to upgrade to a modern version! If this one breaks I may just keep buying kindle keyboards. And I'm sure my grandma would love that I'm getting back into reading with her old device :)
Just had one of these fall into my hands for free and was going to recycle it. Did a little research first and your post turned me around! Loving this reader and thanks for posting!!
Thanks. I have Kindle 3 since 2010, using it all the time. No Kindle update would satisfy me since Kindle 3 has it all. What would I improve? The ideal Kindle would be based on Kindle 3. It would have 6.8" paper white screen but it wouldn't have to be much larger since I would get rid of the the keyboard buttons except for those 3 vertical and three horizontal buttons down on the right corner. I love the page changing buttons on both sides. Everything else like the Kindle 3 including the text to speech etc. I know it wouldn't happen but I'm not going for any update since everything since is worst...
@@georgedvorak9481 Yup, I've found many listings on such sites. One question I have is that, is it easy to use or does it require a lot of fiddling around?
@@afaqahmad2806 its trivial to use. Two downsides: 1. The kindle store no longer works on it, as its out of date. 2. There's no backlight. Thats about it.
I have one. I've had mine since this model was almost new. The battery on mine was pretty run down from years of being left uncharged. The batteries are a very reasonable price, and the replacement so easy it's delightful. The hardest part it getting the back off without cracking it (oops). The battery itself is just held in place by two screws.
I’ve had my Kindle Keyboard since 2010 and it runs like a tank despite the fact that I recently replaced the battery. I take the device offline and just read the books and play the games I have loaded on it. I have plenty of books and games to keep me busy for a long time.
@@JuliaTalks777it’s a simple job. Batteries are available from a number of eBay sellers. You then just need to remove the back of the Kindle, unscrew the 2 screws holding in the battery, screw in the new battery, put the back of the Kindle on again. TH-cam videos are available to walk you through it step-by-step as well.
I got given one of these years ago when my mum upgraded to a new one- I only used it once on holiday to Thailand (where I’d wanted to travel light). Tried to use it recently and the battery seemed dead but left it plugged in and a week later it sprang to life! I’ve just synced it up and bought a new book that I “delivered” to it and it already had 100 books on it 🥂
I found my old Kindle 3 from years ago recently too and it is stuck on a screen that says that I need to charge it or restart it. I've tried both and they don't seem to work. I plugged it in for one full day and over night, but it's still stuck on the same low battery screen. Maybe I'll try your tactic and plug it in for a week and see if it works! Thanks for the tip!
I've been using a Kindle 4 since 2013. It needs a charge every 400-500 pageturns (maybe more?), but otherwise I'm absolutely loving it. I only miss the screen light but I'm planning to use the device until it dies on me. I can send epub files through email or drag and drop pdf-s.
I have this kindle and have loved it! My battery is now junk and Amazon doesn’t make the replacement battery any longer. I’m worried to buy a third party for fear of the battery “catching fire” as it does happen so I was forced to purchase a new kindle last week. I went with the basic model but it is not the kindle 3. Amazon needs to update this model. The keyboard and the page turners are greatly missed.
I have the 4th gen kindle I bought from the thrift store for $1.60. It works perfectly fine. I even was able to update the kindle to the device's latest software. but I can't login. I turned off the 2-step verification and I still can't login in. I also can't change the time. help?
as someone who wants a kindle for manga i would say save up for a reseller selling a kindle for around 65 pounds to 75 pounds for example right now on ebay i can get a 2022 kindle for 65 pounds what has good sharp pixels but lets say you want to souley read books to be honest if u want something cheap it doesnt matter what you use just make sure that it isnt absolutely terrible for the price
One things that'd be interesting: How's the browser? Can I just plug it in a charger, open a website that peiodically updates/reloads itself, and always have the up to date information at a glance?
I switched back to this kindle. Paperwhite just sucks compared to my beloved kindle. Bought new one, just because I couldn't send any epubs on there, but now I found the way. It just has a better experience in everything
Thanks, one of my students just mentioned he has one. And I was probably going to get a new one on Black Friday. But I think I'll just get this one and keep it forever 😄. I'm getting it for about 10$.
I've had this e-reader now for ten years, and sadly, it's time to replace it. I've loved it very much all this time. It's just that now I can feel that the buttons for page-turning are starting to go, and it's not holding a charge very long anymore. Most of all, it's no longer supported, and I'm unable to retrieve old books to send to it anymore. RIP Kindle 3. You were a much-loved e-reader. Hello, Kindle Paperwhite. It won't be the same, but hopefully we will have many good reading memories for the next ten years. 😃
Yes you can transfer, just plug your Kindle via USB cable and when it shows up on your file browser, copy and paste books into folder "Documents". This is how I did with my Kindle 4 many years without even switching on Wi-Fi etc.. :))
I had this kindle when it came out because of the 3G connectivity...fast forward now...ahem. But I managed to get some games for this when the kindle used to support them. So I love the word games on it. So recently I took a holiday and when we came into land, I put the kindle under my thigh to secure it. When I went to use it...the screen broke. I just couldn't get a new one, and went to ebay to get a replacment (as well the games don't work on later models). I love this version.

I have this conspiracy theory that they did it to sell audiobooks. Because audible.

That’s why they brought audible to the new Kindle’s along with bluetooth
They effectively bricked these, you cannot put new books from kindle on here, I was told by customer service it was due to a lack of hardware for TTL and encrypted comms. If you have a way to continue to use this I would love to know since Amazon and Kindle have basically screwed us all over.

did you just rename the title of your video fro 2023 to 2024 just to get more views? this video was out in 2023...even it states 2023 in its main image, and itself...ugh...sleazy tactics of viewer desperate people
The relevance of the content remains the same in my eyes. Nothing has changed since I made the video - yes I could make a new one evaluating it in 2024 as I still use it every day. But I would just be repeating the same thing. I even updated the description explaining my decision to rename the title as my views haven't changed.
Fun fact if you press and hold shift(arrow up), alt and M simultaneously you get a secret menu to play both Minesweeper and Gomoku.

did you just rename the title of your video fro 2023 to 2024 just to get more views? this video was out in 2023...even it states 2023 in its main image, and itself...ugh...sleazy tactics of viewer desperate people
The relevance of the content remains the same in my eyes. Nothing has changed since I made the video - yes I could make a new one evaluating it in 2024 as I still use it every day. But I would just be repeating the same thing. I even updated the description explaining my decision to rename the title as my views haven't changed.
@@RuggsTech The video content is great, the title vs what was around is confusing, and misleading...just syaing ;-)
