I have a weird situation. I have a Kindle Paperwhite, firmware 5.4.4.2.
The 5.4.4.2 update disabled my custom screensaver.
I reinstalled the most current Jailbreak (successfully).
I tried reinstalling the most current screensaver hack, but got the grayed-out "Update Your Kindle" on the Settings menu.

I have been trying to troubleshoot, following NiLuJe's advice in Post #1097:

* If you don't have one already, make a backup of your custom screensaver images.
* Delete the linkss folder from your Kindle.
* On the off-chance that something wonky's going on with your jailbreak version, reinstall the latest JailBreak.
* Restart your device.
* Run the latest uninstaller for the ScreenSavers hack.
* Run the latest installer for the ScreenSavers hack.
* And *STOP*. At no point should you try to inject your custom images (yet).

When I run the latest uninstaller for the ScreenSavers hack, I am able to update the kindle.

But then when I try to run the latest installer (next step), "Update Your Kindle" is grayed out. This is the point where I get stuck.

Any thoughts?
