Hi guys, I am having problems with CM on KPW2 with 5.4.3.1, jailbroken and with Kual installed. I have found 2 versions of CM, both visible in Kual and both do not appear to work:
The first one was placed in Extensions, probably coming from another package and had only 2 files (config.xml and menu.json) but no Bin folder. When launching it from Kual I was getting the message "Application error. The selectyed application could not be started. Please try again." Consequently I have deleted this CM folder of Extensions. The second one was CM2.6.2. and I have installed it by placing the CM.azw2 file in the Documents folder of Kindle. When launching it from Kual I was getting first a white screen with "www.ixtab.tk" written in the middle and after that another frame with the message "Unsupported firmware. Your Kindle is running firmware 5.4.3.1. which is not supported by this version of Collections Manager". Any hint please for making CM working on my PW2? Thank you!

@axelPW2: You pretty much answered your own question.

So at least now this is clear and my post will serve now to other pw2 beginners like myself: Up to this moment Collection Manager does not work with FW 5.4.3.1 on pw2! Thanks again! Last edited by axelPW2; 05-20-2014 at 12:50 AM. |

My PW2 updated itself to 5.4.3.2 tonight, so I can also confirm that the collections manager will not work with this version either.

I understand that turning off the wifi would stop it, but then I can't download books. Is there another way to stop auto updates? |

Create a folder called "update.bin.tmp.partial" in your Kindle Drive root. This will prevent the update from being downloaded, by reserving the download filename. It cannot simply be deleted, since folder require a different delete command than files, and the updater isn't clever enough to handle this. Last edited by eschwartz; 05-26-2014 at 08:31 PM. |

I really hope Collections Manager will be updated to work with 5.4.4.2.
I like some stuff that came with this firmware (particularly the new way footnotes are displayed) and don't want to go back to an older Firmware "just" for the collections. TBH i never used this nested collections, i just used one collection per book series and was happy with that... Last edited by Kartoffelr; 05-27-2014 at 02:15 PM. |
