Ah. will do! (I already made sure I was up to date on the tools - but thanks )
I am digging around in the kindleDummy thing and the combined dev-certs example. Hopefully I will have more fortune with more examples. Brain.. going.. too... slow... ; ) |

No. I've just put "permission java.io.FilePermission "/mnt/us/-", "read,write,execute";" to /opt/amazon/ebook/security/external.policy when tried KindleVNC or KindleTerm. But all this permissions stuff still looks misty for me. Even if I grant "permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>", "read,write,execute";" for all kindlets, I still cannot execute anything except scripts in /mnt/us. Even simple Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/bin/ls/") returns "java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission /bin/ls execute)".

@drauger: exactly. And that's what the Kindlet jailbreak is there for. It allows Kindlets to request Permissions at runtime, it allows them to load classes which are normally "forbidden" to Kindlets... and it does not require the modification of the system's security policy files. Some background information is here. And now let's get back on topic.

@twobob: much too complicated for end users . Everything "ota2" supports multiple devices, so should be done like that (with the exception that you can't mix k4 and k5). But essentially, it's enough to provide ONE file for ALL Touch/Paperwhite users, and one file for all K4 users. Check the devcerts or "rescue pack" files that I published for Touch devices for examples
Matters are different for the K3 ("ota"), where each device needs its own installer... at least AFAIK. See the attached sources, and it should be pretty clear. Last edited by ixtab; 01-30-2013 at 02:42 PM. |

Thanks. I did notice the aliases. and the ota2 multiple device spec. Appreciate the assist.

EDIT: Okay so I think I have it now. I will just go check one of the 3 un-installers/installers - for sanities sake - before I share. Last edited by twobob; 01-30-2013 at 04:29 PM. |

Egggs are ready.

pun intended. Designed to look a wee bit more swanky on the lower devices' "about" pages. Last edited by twobob; 01-30-2013 at 10:35 PM. |

Hello.
I have a Kindle touch with FW 5.3.2. I jailbreak(ed) my Kindle using the instructions here. Following the instructions on the thread, I first created an extensions folder on the root of the drive and then proceeded to copy "update_k5_ALL_PW_ALL_kindlet_jailbreak_install.bi n" and "update_k5_ALL_PW_ALL_devcerts_install.bin" and updated. Now I get an error that says "The update was unsuccessful." and "Update Error: 3". What am I doing wrong? If it helps, I have the custom screensaver from Yifan Lu installed. |

What knc1 said. Choose "Update your Kindle" from the "Settings" screen. Without being too annoyingly technical: the key "checked" by just restarting the device as opposed to choosing "Update your kindle" is the wrong one. |
