The payload is based on yifanlu's jailbreak, with a few tweaks to make it more Touch/PaperWhite centric,
and a fantastic new delivery method discovered by yossarian17. So, as always, thanks to everyone involved in Touch & PaperWhite hacking, particularly yifanlu, ixtab, geekmaster, eureka & yossarian17  .
In addition, this is also the home of the K5 (Touch/PaperWhite) port of the USBNetwork hack .
Latest Updates (12/06/2013):
JailBreak v1.8.N (New delivery method, PW2 support!), USBNetwork v0.15.N (proper PW2 support).
INSTALL:
Jailbreak:Spoiler:
Download the attached kindle-jailbreak-1.8.N.zip file, and unpack it. In here, you'll find a few files.
Unzip the contents of the kindle-5.4-jailbreak.zip archive to the root directory of your Kindle.
Now, eject your Kindle, and go to [HOME] -> [MENU] > Settings -> [MENU] > Update Your Kindle. The updater won't actually ever run, this is normal. After a few seconds, the words **** JAILBREAK **** will appear at the bottom of your screen to confirm that the device is jailbroken .
And that's it, your Kindle is now ready to install custom hacks!
NOTE TO PW2 OWNERS:
If the Update Your Kindle link stays grayed out, and you can't find your specific model in the current list of Kindle models, please reply to this thread with: the exact model of your device (WiFi/3G), the country it was bought in/shipped to, and finally, and most importantly, the first four characters of its serial number ( Settings -> Device Info).
