Kindle Half-Screen Mode Please!!

Here is my request:

Like thousands of other Kindle users I was really careless enough to break my beloved Kindle (Gen4 non-touch) in half (or at least the screen). Now there is one half of the screen working and the other isn't responding.

Now, knowing that the Kindle is an Android device, I was wondering if there wasn't an ambitious Android programmer out there that came up with at least an emergency solution for this problem: A half-screen mode is what I thought of, or maybe a custom-screen mode, where you can actually actively define the pixels that your Kindle will use to display content. (e.g. 300*600 instead of the default 800*600). I actually think this would make a lot of people very happy, from all the forums I have read with people complaining about their half-broken devices.

Unfortunately there don't really seem to be any customROMs for the normal Kindles out there, although there are quite comprehensive guide to rooting the Gen4 non-touch Kindle. (I'm not allowed to put links because I'm a noob :p )

Now, if I had the programming skills to do such I thing you can believe me I would do it, but (surprise) I don't. I don't even know if it is doable. However, I have faith in the xda-community to help me and all the others with the same problem.

Thanks.

PS: Thanks also for all the awesome work done so far. Here's a short list of devices that I've flashed with awesome CustomROM's.

-ZTE Blade (twice) (CM7 & CM10 inofficial)

-Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 (CM7)

-Motorola Moto G (Beanstalk 4.4)

and soon to come:

-Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

-another Xperia (possibly L)

Ok so i have rooted/unlocked my Nexus 4 using the Nexus Toolkit and have installed Purity Rom & Franco Kernel. So far everything is amazing and I am slowly customizing my phone. My question is that how do updates work now for everything? - for ota official? purity rom? & for the kernel?

And would updating any of these in the future mean me completely wiping device and having to start all over?

P.S. I do plan to do a full nandroid backup soon but to my knowledge that is basically is a mirror of my system, unless you can do a backup of only your customizations & apps only and then flash that on your updated rom??

Forgive me I am new to all this

TIA

OK..what I want you guys to know is...There are all of about 3 experienced users patrolling this thread and being one of them, I dont like the attitude we get from you guys who break your stuff ,or buy no name low end devices and then come in here, and when we either can't help you because we don't know the answer, or we didn't do your Google searching fast enough for you, you throw a fit...We ARE very noob friendly as a matter of fact, but no one owes you a response, and most of our responses, if we don't know the answer, is just a matter of surf the web (which is the same thing you could do)..

Mate, not every device can be rooted. As it is a low legacy device, not so many people know it. Use better search function or google and you will quickly find what is there.

Many root users read about how to root some phone and what's on in the development before buying that phone.

First: I didn't mean to insult you, I know that you are helping a lot of people. I saw you also being very long online today, and yesterday and the day before. You see, I'm looking also for an answer here.

Second: I don't care if I'm at the bottom of your list or anyone's else list.

Third: saaad.shah2 and kira-senpai, thanks to me you are getting some help :D

@ InkSlinger420 Dear friend: Last 4 days I'm constantly searching internet for a solution of my problem, I'm a noob and I admit it. I was not expecting someone else to do the work for me. What I constantly found was too complicated for me and sometimes even not logic (always according to me). Can you understand my relief when I came to xda-forum and I found this thread (I remind you noob friendly)? I was so happy that I even bought the xda premium application for my phone. And then I post my problem, and of course I was not expecting that I would be helped in one day. But, can you feel my irritation when I see that people that post their problems even one day after me they are getting their help? I felt discriminated (don't get this wrong), what did I do wrong? why not just a little reply that you just don't have time or that my post was wrong or that I am an idiot posting something like this. Totally ignored.

Again I didn't mean to insult you or anyone else!!! And I don't write all these to get me out of the bottom of your list. Is your decision and I respect it. I just wanted to let you know why I reacted like this.
[General Questions and Answers] Gamemaster1379:
I have a very out of left field question. I am with Alltel currently (3G CDMA network) and am in need of a phone temproarily (~6 months). Alltel phones won't hold their value and I don't want to lock into a contract, so I would like to use a Verizon phone I could resell. I would like to know if it is possible to make use of a Verizon phone on the Alltel network (they run on the same technology and bands, so it's not a matter of physical incompatability like GSM to CDMA). If so, what is needed in order to make a phone work from Verizon to Alltel? I understand that if it IS possible and if the Verizon phone is 4G, I won't get 4G on Alltel. That is no problem. If it works with 3G--that alone will suffice.

One phone I had in mind in particular was the Galaxy Note 3. I would like to make use of this phone on Alltel if at all possible. If that phone is incompatible, what would my options be?

[General Questions and Answers] InkSlinger420:
OTA updates from manufacturer wont happen as you are no longer on stock rom..Purity rom nightlys can be got from them and flashed with a wipe of cache and dalvic first (no full wipe needed unless there are bugs that that would fix), Going back to stock WOULD take a wipe, and if you are using a specific kernel, you would need to flash that again after you update nightlys or you will still have the kernel that came with the build.

[General Questions and Answers] Gamemaster1379:
Still haven't gotten an answer but I did some reading up on CDMA network flashing, and supposedly there's such things as partial flashes which just involve certain IDs and the like. Perhaps that would make it possible to flash a phone that is not normally provided by the carrier?
[General Questions and Answers] InkSlinger420:
As far as I know, as long as a phone is network unlocked, it can work on any network as long as the apns are set properly..certain providers do require a "flash" of their carriers software (to track minutes and such,ie. Cricket and the likes) and certain cellphone stores would be willing to flash the phone to the carrier for a price..

.....If I had even a quarter from everyone I've helped....Maybe I could stay stocked in beer.....-sent from a very xposed nexus 7-
[General Questions and Answers] Gamemaster1379:
I have no issue with attempting the flashing myself (also there are no such businesses around here that offer that sort of service---it simply isn't viable for the area.).

And I'm having an extremely difficult time with finding Alltel information. Considering they are only 15% of what they once were and are on their way out--no other consumers are looking for the information I'm seeking---so I have only generic information to go off of at this point.

Also, I'm assuming APN modifications are something that show up on unlocked phones. I've not seen that configuration option on any of my own devices.
[General Questions and Answers] InkSlinger420:
It should be under settings/more/mobile networks/access point names

and its APNs are here:

http://configredmovil.wordpress.com/alltel-apn/

APNS section shouldnt be held to network unlocked devices, but using the apn after being setup may be.
[General Questions and Answers] Gamemaster1379:
I have Data Enabled, Data Roaming, and System Select (Offers "Autormatic" and "home" for my options). Nothing more. You could be right about it being disabled after initial setup.

So, it sounds like I should be able to move a Note 3 over on a partial flash to Alltel (assuming they accept foreign ESNs -- maybe somebody could chip in on whether they do or not)

So, with this in mind, where should I order an unlocked CDMA note 3 from? Preferably somewhere with a 30 day return policy in case things don't work out. I'm certainly interested in trying this out.

EDIT: Also, one more question. Assuming Alltel does not allow foreign ESNs, is it possible to use the ESN of an existing phone on their network? I have my current device and two currently non-activated devices I could make use of.

Hopefully you did a backup before installing xposed....
[General Questions and Answers] Gamemaster1379:
They are, I'm sure of it. I owned both of the phones since they were new. They never left my possession. I've never reported them and I know nobody has tampered with them.

Okay. So, if I understand everything correctly, this is what I need to do:

1. Purchase an unlocked CDMA Galaxy Note 3

2. Enter the Alltel APN information on the device (provided in the URL posted earlier)

3. Obtain the ESN from one of my previous Alltel devices

4. Use the above ESN and write over the ESN on the Note 3

5. Activate Note 3 over the phone with Alltel
[General Questions and Answers] InkSlinger420:
I don't believe you can swap esns...its like an imei...device identifier...although I may be wrong...you just need to make sure the note you want has a clean ESN..and swappa is a trusted place to look...

[General Questions and Answers] Gamemaster1379:
I believe I read somewhere that there are means of spoofing an ESN, but I believe its dangerous. So, I guess I would have to use the Note 3's ESN on Alltel's network. Hopefully Alltel doesn't have a database of ESN IDs they allow and allow only those phones on their network. I have no idea if this is actually the case though. Would it be worth my while to call or email them?
