Longer answer: Open the spoiler titled: Here is the list of things you must have installed. 4 In Total. Install **all** files in the "prerequisites" bundle (one at a time). **Including** the "Kindlet Jailbreak". The much longer answer: You probably do not have everything installed that you thought you did, since ota updates where happening more or less at the same time, so - start over: 1) Turn on "airplane mode" - leave it turned on 2) Remove any Update_*.bin or Install_*.bin from user's USB storage area. 3) Put Amazon's version 5.3.4 firmware update.bin package on root of storage area, "update" back down to 5.3.4 (link to off-site archive of Amazon releases in the "Jailbreak" first post https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...29&postcount=1 ). 4) **LEAVE AIRPLANE MODE ENABLED** 5) Now open that blue spoiler and start following the directions. All of them. Last edited by knc1; 07-12-2013 at 01:39 PM. |

Thanks, but I managed to find the correct files. I have KUAL working now.
It appears the problem was with the first post at the top, especially the linked prerequisites. The linked zip does not contain the correct prerequisites for newer kindle releases. I was able to download the correct files from: http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1210 I suspect that one key problem is that the prerequisites on the first page does not contain the file: update_k5_ALL_PW_ALL_devcerts_install.bin but instead devcerts from an earlier time (12002)?.

I just looked at that stuff in details two days ago myself, and set it up on 5 different devices a few days before that, I concur: everything's there, and up to date .

One of the things I always wanted to see in KUAL were categories. Having too many options/extensions (I have 55) in the launcher sometimes forces you to remember which page is the application you're looking for at - thus how many times you have to press the next page button.
And I'm not sure if this would work, but perhaps caching the list items would also help speed up launch time of the launcher itself, with an option to force a list update. Again, I'm not sure if OS-level filecache is in effect here. |

Thanks a lot, that's much better! I had some KUAL from March 2013. I really like the categorization and the changes in look & feel.
Only thing I needed to do was fix 3 menu.json files which I edited, it seems KUAL no longer tolerates commas after the last array item. |

I thought that we had improved that. See - we read your mind about what you would request today, <<-- our crystal ball. You are correct about the dangling commas. In fact, one or two of my own buttons have (or had) dangling commas. |

@wilvic: Just scroll down to the bottom of the first post and get it from there, it's attached to the post. The link is simply outdated.
Thanks for the hint... I'll update that post now. |

Hi guys,
I'm having issues with KUAL and KPDF. I've installed Jailbreak, Kindlet etc... and KUAL - that's all working. Downloaded the Kindlepdfviewer and placed in extensions - KUAL correctly lists it. I can enter KPDF and get the following options: Start in Documents Open Last Document / Which looks great - navigate to a book! Though, when I click either 'Start in Documents' or '/' it dumps be back on the Kindle OS start page that lists all my books (a filepath briefly flashes up in the bottom left of the screen before this occurs). As a side note - I tried installing Duokan before Jailbreak and KUAL but without success (though I believe it partially installed as the .bin file disappeared during the update process). Could this be something to do with my issue? I have a K3, FW 3.4 @knc1 has very kindly tried helping me with this issue so far in another thread - moved here as now more relevant. He mentioned @Hawhill may have some words of wisdom? Thanks all, Tom |

The KUAL launcher simply runs shell commands -
There is (or should be) a DK_System/bin/Uninstall.sh script left on your device from the partial Doukan install. That **might** do the clean up job - just going by the name. (I have zero experience with Doukan) I seem to recall that someone wrote Kual buttons in support of Doukan, it may already have a button to run the uninstall script. If not, then it should not be hard to write a "button" that runs that script for you. PS: Do not panic! This is a K3 and Kubrick can re-flash a factory image (takes awhile, but it does do the job). I am not suggesting that you are up to the "Kubrick stage" yet - just keep in mind that it provides a way to recover the device if things go from bad to worse. |
