Hello friends.

I'm trying to jailbreak my KindlePaperWhite2.0, but I have had problems.

I just bought the kindle yesterday,
First at all, the kindle had the 5.4.5.1 firmware.
I downgrade the firmware to version 5.4.2.1 using the method of rebot the device while this is still plugged in the usb.
Next, I did the steps to jailbreak from this trickle, Im sure I did the steps correctly, however, the "Update Your Kindle" link stays grayed out.
I also did the steps in the "FAQ's" when this happened, and however the "Update Your Kindle" link stays grayed out.

Next, I downgrade the firmware again one level, now to the firmware 5.1.2.0, hoping that now the jailbreak worked on a earlier firmware.

Regrettably, it did not work.

CAn you help me please?

Thanks in advance friends.
