Kindle Paperwhite Jailbreak (5.2.0 - 5.3.1)
Yes I thought it was 5.3.1 and not 5.3.2. Anyways, I downgraded to 5.3.1 and have downloaded the jailbreak onto my Kindle so now it's currently going through the process of jailbreaking. I hope everything goes well.

So, what's the word on the Paperwhite 5.3.4 FW that came out a day ago?
Smells like another recovery image. |

5.3.4
Hey, ixtab, a friend of mine tried your method on a kindle paperwhite with firmware 5.3.4, it worked directly, no need to downgrade to 5.3.1 or any older.

Just another confirmation: 1. On a previously jailbroken 5.3.3, updated to 5.3.4, the bridge appears to do its job, as the word "jailbreak" appears a couple of times during the *official* update. 2. For fun, I reapplied the 5.3.1 JB to 5.3.4, and the original method worked perfectly; the JB proceeded normally and appears to install successfully. 3. I reapplied the Kindlet dev certs update and the JBbridge update separately, and they installed fine, confirming that the 5.3.4 is jailbroken.
So there you have it! / US Paperwhite |

BTW, I just uploaded a new version of the jailbreak installer, which includes the fixed rescue pack. |

How do you downgrade the firmware? The initial post didn't say.

Exactly the same way as you upgrade the firmware: put the respective update*.bin on the Kindle and restart it.

Oh, ok. I didn't know if it should go in the root directory or where.
>>edit: Can I install the dev-certs and the rescue pack all at once, or do I need to do them one at a time? Last edited by kindleuzer; 03-19-2013 at 03:50 PM. |

Oh [edited - M.] - after loading the update_combined-dev-certs-20121002_install.bin and restarting, Kindle says:
-------------- ! ----------------------- The update was not successful. If you need assistance visit www.kindle.com/support. To resume using your Kindle, please press the power button. UPDATE ERROR: 3 ------------------------------------- What do I do now? Just restart and try it again? N/M - after installing the rescue pack I tried again, and this time it worked. Thanks!
