Dedrm removal not working for some regional Titles in Amazon

[Tushd31]

Hi , I Came across your thread . Looking for a new issue facing .Some Regional Titles (Marathi ,Tamil ,Telugu )from Amazon india kindle store are not getting downloaded on Kindle for pc version 1.19 .Tried till 1.21 ,didn't worked . Error code - You need to update your Kindle for pc with latest version . For 1.23 and above it worked ,but format is kfx-azw3 for .Titles can be seen in Calibre but conversion fails stating "locked by drm " Tried alternative way , but no option to send book to pc via "Send it to kindle" from Kindle web reader or Amazon account for these titles .For all English titles it worked and was able to send to pc . Trying this for 5 days with every possible combination to work out ,but didn't worked . Using calibre - Latest Version 4.16 Dedrm plugin 6.7 Kfx plugin from mobileread which was updated recently . My observation as this issue is for titles which are not available to send to pc via USB transfer (No option available for these titles ) Awaiting for your response .

If you cannot download a book with unmodified Kindle for PC 1.24 (no change to renderer-test), then you will probably have to wait until DeDRM can be updated to handle the newer DRM on KFX format. If you can download it with 1.24 or earlier, post a log of adding it to calibre:

This book isn't working because it is from Kindle Unlimited.

This book isn't working because it is from Kindle Unlimited.

actually , even i thought the same , but that is not the case as i have downloaded more than 200 english novels from kindle unlimited service and converted , but not getting luck with these regional titles .

[ElleKayEm]

That is why this particular book isn't working. If you have a purchased book of this type, I'll be happy to look at that. In this case, DeDRM is working as intended.

[Tushd31]

Kk sure .Will try to do a purchase and will share the raw file with you . Thank you so much for this replies .It means alot :)

[ElleKayEm]

The file won't do me any good. Just the log.

[Tushd31]

The file won't do me any good. Just the log.

Kk😅.Sure

[ElleKayEm]

Be aware that I don't know if you will be able to remove DRM from a file like that. At least not until the latest version of DRM is figured out and incorporated into the tools.

[Tushd31]

Gotcha .Will have to try as I desperately need some of those titles as they are totally unavailable in any other format than Kindle . So ,these are worth trying .

[ElleKayEm]

You could try with a sample before buying. I think that would have the same DRM as the full book.

[ElleKayEm]

Just found out that the description on the product page may actually say if later versions of Kindle for PC/Mac app are required. If that is the case, then the DRM can't be removed.
