Well, apparently this works on FW 5.2.0, too (meaning the PaperWhite).

So, err, thanks, Amazon! .
Hey, NiLuJe (or anybody else who was involved in this), when you'll get dump of 5.2.0, please, PM link to it to me.

@eureka: Well, I won't receive mine until a few weeks, so, count me out.

Besides, I'm busy enjoying the two notches on my 'jailbroke a new Kindle model without having it on hands' belt... . (... and still not going to sleep ^^).

@NiLuJe: congratulations for the belt!

@all: geekmaster is currently dumping the kernels and partitions, so expect them soon. (I'm also biting my fingernails, because I want to try the 5.2.0 versions on my Kindle Touch).

Well, I'm mostly joking, it's never a one man job .

There's a reason for the huge list of thanks on top of my threads .

I sent ixtab and NiLuJe links to the 5.2.0 firmware images via PM. I will put them in the simple debricking pastebin now. We will need them to repair our kindles, even if we need to use the serial port to do it.

EDIT: Done! The pastebin now contains PW(Paperwhite) debricking repair images at the top of the list.

I added a comment at hackaday sharing credit with you guys, but it is "awaiting moderation".... They like to "pin all the blame" on one guy.

http://hackaday.com/2012/10/05/jailb...le-paperwhite/

EDIT: My hackaday comment is now public. Thanks for sending me the jailbreak and USBNet packages to test on my Paperwhite Guinea Pig, NiLuJe! And thanks to ixtab too, for the interesting PM "inner circle" discussion that ended in a successful jailbreak.

With the jailbreak you can modify the system files and applications.

If you have an ePub application to install, then the jailbreak is preparation for doing that.

So is there an ePub app that people use to read ePub on the Kindle PW?

But would if I don't want to convert and use an app, which one is most common or popular?

Although hackaday links to my paperwhite jailbreak announcement thread, most websites announcing this jailbreak are linking direcly to this 5.1.x jailbreak thread instead. There has been confusion about the jailbreak not working when data.tar.gz was used instead of data.stgz. Perhaps we need a big bold red comment for that too...

Also, perhaps the thread title should be changed to 5.1.x & 5.2.0, like I did with the simple debricking thread as we added more models. ???
