K3 Is there a 3.4 Jailbreak? - Page 2

knc1 · 09-20-2012, 08:40 PM

And that page is indexed just above the TOC of the master index:
http://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Prefix_Index

But I don't think many people find it, even though it is the first link to anything at all.

Does not matter, I am going to use it.

(And, FWIW, the whitelist is deprecated in 0.11.N, and has nothing to do with the lighting up of the 'UYK' link, that's completely handled by the Kindle).

It starts with B006 A0A0. If I'm not using the correct file then which one is?

@stangri: My bad, it's actually because of the min/target OTA levels. It's just not built to support 3.4, probably because it doesn't, so instead of breaking in unexpected ways in the middle of processing an unknown firmware, it just doesn't even run on unknown firmwares.

You'll have to at least tweak the build scripts, and more likely everything else to actually properly handle fw 3.4.

I'm afraid I'm not that proficient, but I would gladly try someone else's script to prepare the 3.4 firmware for the DXG.

If anyone can help, I'd be much obliged.

Also, since we're on the subject -- I can't get neither K3 (tried both pre-3.2.1 and 3.2.1) or dxg jailbreak scripts to work on my 3.2.1 ex-demo DXG.

I believe I had jailbroken 3.2.1 on the previous demo DXG (which I've had to send back to the ebay seller because of the small screen defect), but don't remember how.

Any suggestions?

@stangri: Yifanlu's stuff includes a jailbreak, no need to install it manually.

I do not want to open another thread, hence my post in this one. I just updated my kindle 3 to FW 3.4. When I tried to install Niluje's jailbreak ver 0.11.N_k3g, I get an "update failed" message. Why is this happening

qlob · 10-12-2012, 06:42 PM

what error numbr is it?

horizon21 · 10-12-2012, 06:53 PM

The error is U004.
EDIT: I think I found the solution in geekmaster's post here:

@horizon21: That quote's conclusion is accurate, but the fix proposed is now deprecated (as of a few hours ago ^^).

I switched the packages (ie. the default one runs on 3.2.1, 3.3 & 3.4). Use the -3.0-to-3.2 one if you're running on an older FW.
