Apologies if this has been asked and answered.
Just got a new kindle paperwhite (2013) (PW2).
Jailbroke it, attempted to get python installed (PW2) (failed)
attempted to install the linkss update (PW2) (succeeded)
attempted to install the python update (PW2) (succeeded)
So far, so good (at least, I think).
However, when I go to place a blank file called "cover" in the linkss directory, and then restart my kindle, nothing changes, and in any event, unlike when I did this for my kindle 3rd gen (wifi), I don't get a success -- you have installed the screen hack screen.
If it matters, I bought the device at BestBuy (which unfortunately only allows the "special offers" bit.) I then went to Amazon, as instructed by bestbuy, and paid the $20 to remove the special offers. restarted the device, got the removed message successfully.
Is there something I am doing wrong, or am I screwed because I bought one that was originally a "special offers" variety? I can probably return the thing and repurchase from amazon, but it is a hassle I would like to avoid.
Thanks in advance for any help!! (and sorry again if it has been asked and answered - I am having a hard time searching the previous posts, being new to this forum).
Best
