Hi Thomass,

thank you very much for your reply.
I have gui launcher and thus usbnetwork, but unfortunately I have no idea how to use it.
The same for the data.tar.gz method. I don't know about such commands and would be afraid to damage something....

edit: I mean, if I just update to 5.1.0, pay amazon to remove the ads and the files of the toggle-ads-hack don't do any harm, I don't care if they stay on my kindle. But I don't know if they would do some harm in the future, or not.

edit 2:
Ok, I risked it, deinstalled the GUI Launcher (jailbreak and disabled-ads still active) and updated to 5.1.0. After crossing fingers, everything worked just fine!

Whenever I do a 'long' restart (pressing powerbutton >30sec, the ads are disabled and my custom screensaver appears, and whenever I connect to wifi, the ads appear again. I would still like to uninstall this hack, and get the normal SO-version back. If someone wants to help me with it, I'd appreciate, but if not I'll just continue as it is, since everything works fine. In the worst case I will have to learn SSH and all that stuff %-)
