I've had my Kindle since May of this year. The other day when I opened the Kindle to read a book I found that half the page was displayed as one of the pictures used when the Kindle is shutdown. The other half either displayed an indistinguishable image or half the Home Page. I cannot seem to clear this so that when the Kindle is off it displays one of the entire shutdown pages and when it is turned on it displays the entire Home Page.

Are you sure the Kindle powers up? It may show something on the sreen, even if it is not turned on (e-ink screen does not need a powersupply to show an image). Try to power up your Kindle with a different battery. If that fails, you can get the part at Kindle Repair and there is a guide that shows you how to open a kindle and install parts at Kindle Repair Guide.

Make sure that the kindle is fully charged. Plug your kindle into the wall charger, a yellow light will light up. When the yellow light turns green, your kindle is fully charged. Then try turning on your device. If the device still does not turn on, hold the power switch for 15 seconds, this will reboot the device.

How do I get boos on my kindle

Hello, Reg -

Clarification: Are you asking how you can get books (not "boos"), meaning e-books, to read on your Kindle?

If so . . .

Kindle is an e-reader which is proprietary to Amazon - Amazon.com.

I have no idea where you reside - in what country. I am answering from the USA. Fixya.com receives questions from people worldwide.

For your Kindle, you will need to go to the Amazon website for where (country) you reside, then go to the Amazon department for Books, find e-books you wish to read, and order and pay for the Kindle version for those books.

Through the Kindle, owners can also access Amazon's Kindle store.

Read about other ways to obtain e-books to read on your Kindle here, including borrowing e-books from your public library to read on your Kindle:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201252760

There is more information here:
https://www.amazon.com/kindle-dbs/fd/kcp

You may find this How Stuff Works multiple page article on "How the Amazon Kindle Works" instructive:
https://electronics.howstuffworks.com/gadgets/travel/amazon-kindle.htm

There are other options for e-books to read on a Kindle, but this information should be enough to get you started.

Best wishes.

I have a loaned book but am unable to see it on my Kindle list. I have accepted the loaned book but cannot see it on my list

Borrow from a Friend You can borrow a Kindle book from a friend. When the book is available, you will receive an e-mail notification that will allow you to download the book to your Fire tablet, Kindle device, or Kindle reading app.

To download your borrowed book:
  1. Open the e-mail message "A Loaned Book for You."
  2. Click the Get your loaned book now button. Your web browser will automatically launch to Amazon so you can accept the loan.
  3. Sign in to your Amazon account.
    • If you have a Fire tablet, Kindle device, or Kindle reading app, select which device you would like the book to be delivered to, and then click Accept loaned book.
    • If you do not have a Fire tablet, Kindle device, or Kindle reading app, click Accept loaned book and follow the on-screen instructions to download a free Kindle reading app.

Gen 3, half page of screen saver - half page book. can move from page to page but screen saver is still partially there.

Dear Liz,

If your Kindle presents some horizontal or vertical lines in part of the screen, or even in full screen, and if the image is kind of "vaporous", not bright, it might have happened that you have a broken display (maybe due to pressure exerted on it, by something inside your bag, backpack or wherever you carry your Kindle). Please check this link to see if your problem is similar to those portrayed in the following images:

https://www.google.com.br/search?q=broken+kindle+display+image&client=opera&hs=72G&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=hsZ5Upr2PMrqkAez1YHwCw&ved=0CCgQsAQ&biw=1280&bih=730

If that is the case, you can buy a new display from Ali Express and replace it following the disassembling instructions shown at

http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repairing+Kindle+3+%28screen+replacement%29/11938

If you do not want to do it on your own, take the display and the instructions provided in the link indicated to a repair technician that you trust and have it replaced (I had the same problem with my kindle 3 and replaced its display in less than an hour - it is not that difficult...).

Hope you may find this information helpful!

Regards,

Miguel L. Martins

My kindle will not delete a book after I have read it.

If you've already tried deleting the book on the kindle itself, have you tried plugging in the kindle (to your computer), navigating to the Documents folder inside and deleting the actual book file?
