R.I.P MY FAITHFUL FRIEND.
Two days ago my trusty Kindle Fire died. Sniff, Sniff. I have had that Kindle for about five years or longer. When I went to bed my kindle was fine. Woke up about 3:30 in the morning, because I could not sleep and turned my kindle on and it was stuck in a boot loop. I have tried everything that I could find online, and nothing works. Yesterday, I spent nearly all day trying to revive it. No, luck. So, I broke down and ordered me a new one off of Amazon. It has a bigger screen and is lighter and thinner than the old one.
The only thing is I had a game I was playing and did not back it up on Facebook. Now, all that work on the game is lost. I cannot get in to link it to my Facebook account. Now, my poor cities on Empire Z is going to be farms for everyone else. SNIFF, SNIFF. I had 3 accounts and 6 cities on the game. I guess I will have to be content with the ones that I have left. Now, I have to read my books on my phone until I get my new Kindle in 4-5 days. I already feel quit lost without it. Until then I will continue with my morning.
The same thing happened to my Kobo two years ago now when it fell from a table. Very sad day and the worst part was that the book I was reading (from the library) was getting really, really good!
But the positives were that I was able to buy the newer model with the built in light and clearer screen so it was all good 🙂
I usually make sure that I don’t have anything important on my kindle just in case this happens. Good thing all my books and documents are saved to the amazon cloud. There are a few books that I need to do reviews for, but those I have plenty of time to finish them.So, it is all good.
Yes, the cloud is a beautiful thing! I’m happy to hear that!
OH NOES!!!! Been there, done that, got the headache…. have you tried asking the gamer community for help in getting the game to post on Facebook? Good Luck!
Yeah, my nephew is pretty savvy in that department. He tried to help me to get it up and running. No luck. I am hoping the Kindle Gods will miraculously revive it.
Thats why i like my nook with kindle app. If it goes wonky, i just stop by the store and they work their magic!
