Has anyone actually succeeded to remove DRM? I just want my books that I bought. I have Kindle books and comics, and nook books (yes, nook)
I’ve been through the online guides but so far no good. I don’t have a kindle device if that matters.
Am I better off just downloading copies from someone else who did it already?
I managed to do it somehow without a kindle but it was an absolute pain in the ass. For my first few books I had to download then using a specific old version of the kindle desktop app so that calibre was able to remove the encryption. Apparently the encryption used by the newer kindle desktop app is different.
For my next books that suddenly wasn’t enough and I had to use an old android app version in an emulator and get the books out of the hidden app storage using adb.
I’m never buying an ebook of amazon again if I can avoid it
I’m pretty sure I tried the desktop app method at some point. Didn’t work at all for me but I can’t recall why.
I believe it sometimes works based on when the book was published for some reason and that newer books may have a better DRM protection against this method
