Bug Description

Updated Calibre to latest version but does not fix. Both Kindle Fires HD8 Seventh Gen recently went through an OPSYS upgrade now running 5.3.6.4 installed Nov. 15. Fortunately able to download books through the "simple nonjava link" but can't get through to the normal program. This a firm, repeatable bug using valid ip and port that used to work, have not been changed and work no longer. Second Question - What's the diff with the wireless port 9090? Always did use 8080 and it worked even wirelessly and still does.

If the mobile view works for you, then use it. If the normal web view is
not working on your HD after an upgrade on your HD, then the bug is in
that upgrade, since the normal view works fine on all other android
devices I posses (sadly I dont have a Fire to test with).

And ports are irrelevant, they are just numbers used byt he operating
system for bookkeeping, use whatever port you like, the only caveat
being remember to forawrd it through your firewall.
