Can you give me an idea why it might be a bad idea to run the "backup your kindle" instructions from the wiki and post that image? It could be helpful to anyone who accidentally went to 5.3 without even granting permission for the upgrade.

I am a total newb to the forums, and came here just last week when I got really annoyed by the recent batch of Twilight special offers. I'm comfortable in the shell, running 10.5 on a Mac and would be glad to contribute. But dont' want to step on toes!
Nothing at all wrong with you making backup images.

Posting of copyrighted materials on this web-site is against the site policies (guidelines, section 8).

Since there is no jailbreak for the 5.3.0 firmware, there is no way for anyone to use the 5.2.0 images to do the downgrade.
If there where, they wouldn't need to downgrade.

You can stop the special offers from your Amazon Kindle account by paying the no-ads fee.
