Can't jailbreak PW 2
Hi! Yesterday I got my first Kindle. I tried the jailbreak using "kindlefere.com/jb/" and when I got to step 2 it showed application error.
Help? Thank you! Last edited by Carlafclopes; 05-05-2016 at 05:40 AM. |

Moved to the developers' forum, which is where such questions belong.

You have to copy "jb" file (extracted from jb archive) to your Kindle.

It is completely "on-Kindle" no network connection involved. That process uses the same jb.zip archive contents, only the directions are different. That will make your problem easier to troubleshoot. |
