Chosen Solution
Can anyone help me with a problem. I replaced my kindle paperwhite screen and now I get the screen saying repair needed. Battery invalid:-22. I am glad the screen works….. Help??
Did you find any solution to this? I have exactly the same problem. I assembled a paperwhite 2nd-gen screen with a paperwhite 1st-gen motherboard and get exactly the same error. EDIT (typing mistake): it was a 2nd-gen motherboard and a 1st-gen screen
Received a 2nd-gen screen today, still getting repair-message.
Any solutions? I have same problem
I came across a russian site http://kindle.zzweb.ru/paperwhite/repair…. Basicly it sates this: Connect the Kindle Paperwhite to a computer USB-cable.Create an empty file in the root directory DO_FACTORY_RESTORE.Safely disconnect the reader from your computer.Reboot your device by holding the power button. I did this and my kindle paperwhite did a factory reset and I was able to use it again. I had previously tried to format the drive and place a firmware update on the drive so I do not know if this will remove your books. Please try and back up your books if you can before you do this. Hope this helps others.
