This only works for Kindle 1. Kindle DX doesn't have some of the shortcuts for Kindle 2 and doesn't have a lot of the shortcuts for Kindle 1. Please try this post - Kindle DX Tips.

I have a Kindle DX, I have tried all the shot cuts and nothing happen. Do I need to be outside of building? or Do I need a GPS locator or something?

Thanks

OH. Will update the post. This only works on Kindle 1 and I think it’s disabled on it too now.
