Q. My kindle is not working properly... but its still functional just really slow and freezes a lot. I am looking to replace it with my extended warranty but I would like to know the process what will happen to my current kindle since I have so much on it. Do I need to send them my kindle? Does my kindle deactivate? Please educate me :D
It is the 2 year extended warranty from Service Net
A. It really depends on which warranty you purchased since they are sold by more then one servicing company.
You can browse the different warranties here and look up the details for each on the description:

Typically you have to ship the unit back to them, and they send you a replacement I think.
How do you get ice cream sandwich on your kindle?
Q. I have a kindle fire. I figure if you hack your kindle fire you can installed ice cream sandwich which makes your kindle a android tablet. Except I don't know how to. I need help
A. Hi Michael, I cannot help with the specific instructions but just one point to make here - you'd have lost Kindle Fire warranty when you rooted it. If you had instead Nook Tablet (that has much better performance and screen than Fire), you could've "rooted" Nook via microSD boot card and could switch back and forth between different OS versions by switching the microSD cards. Nooks have microSD slot while Kindles don't. Also, known issues with Kindle Fire are that it runs hot to touch, video playback is jerky, touch screen is not responsive and it takes 2-3 touches to register, power button placement is very poor and is prone to accidental power off, all the hype of Silk browser is not true where the browsing is actually slower than on other Android tablets, Wi-Fi connection gives a lot of trouble to users on it, etc.
Are there enough downloadable textbooks to make it worth buying a Kindle?
Q. My primary purpose for a kindle would probably be to read textbooks. Are most textbooks able to be downloaded into a Kindle, or do we have to special order that?
A. I had my kindle for 3 months and it totally gliched out on me. The "experimental" features didnt work well and the screen froze regularly until one day it decided never to come on again. If you get one, its protected under a warranty but I got insurance just in case. If anything, I'd suggest getting another device (like a tablet) and using a kindle app so you have many more features minus the kindle glitches.
P.S. Kindle versions are very expensive. Now that I got my refund for my kindle, I buy used books for little to nothing. Plus, with a free Amazon Student Prime account, you get free 2day shipping to use on your used book orders.
Look up your textbooks in the Amazon Kindle store. Idk which books you use, so I wouldnt be able to say. On the bright side, you could scan them in as a PDF for your kindle or find PDF versions or something.
