Hi, everyone...

I'm a newbie that just installed the last (tar.gz) jailbreak and did it wrongly.

I didn't understand if the jailbreak would work with the tar.gz file alone or if i had to "unzip" it in the root folder... so I did both.

Then, I restarted my kindle (touch, 5.0) and for the last half and hour it has been trying to start but keeps refreshing the image that says kindle and has a person reading behind a tree.

I tried connecting through usb to my laptop, but it won't recognise it...

Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance,

ernesto
