I have a the amazon kindle DX and I love it But I want to use some functions as hotkeys/shortcuts, do you guys have any idea how I can do it? can I do it by my own?
Hey there
I think you might find this one useful
● Home button
(bottom row of keyboard) – Return to Home menu
● Shift Alt R – Reboot the Kindle
● Shift Alt . (period) – Restart just the GUI (graphical user interface)
● Shift Alt G – Grab a screenshot. Screenshots can only be stored on an SD
card. A .gif image file will be saved to the SD card.
● Shift SYM –
Start a demo. Needs a special demo script on the SD card.
Home
● Shift Alt M –
Play Minesweeper
● Alt Z – Rescan your Kindle for pictures
● Alt T – Show the time
● Number Keys – Jump to that page of your Home menu (1 to jump to page 1, 2 for
page 2, etc.)
If your Home
menu is sorted by book name or author, start typing the name or author and the
Kindle will jump to it.
While you’re
reading
● Alt B – Set a
bookmark or clear a bookmark previously set here
● Alt T – Display the time
● Alt 0 – Enable or disable a slideshow
● Alt 1 – Start the slideshow
● Alt 2 – Stop the slidehow
● Alt Next Page / Previous Page – Go to the next (or previous) annotation, or
5% forward (or backward)
Settings
● 411 – Run a
diagnostics test and display technical information about your Kindle
● 511 – Run a loopback call test
● 611 – Perform a diagnostic data service call
Font List
● J – Show or
hide justification options (left or full justification)

Browser
● Alt 1 – Go to
current location in Google Maps. This attempts to locate you by triangulating
your location against nearby cell phone towers. Note that this doesn’t always
find the correct location, and displays “NOT AVAIL, NOT AVAIL” as your location
(or an incorrect address). You may be able to fix this by pressing Shift Alt R
to reboot your Kindle.

Search Field
These last few
commands work in the search field. You only have to type enough of the word for
it to be unique (for example, @wi is enough for Wikipedia).
● @help
● @web
● @wikipedia
● @store
● @time
