I have tried to JB a brand new PW3 (arrived 1hour ago) with 5.6.5 using the http://kindlefere.com/jb/ method.
when I go to stage 2 it always gives me application error.
I am a bit confused because there were some posts saying that on PW3 (2015) it was only possible using serial, but here i saw some success stories.
Currently I have the device on airplane mode and it will be until I JB it.
Any ideas on what could be the problem?

Check the dates of those posts.
Notice that they pre-date the release of the software closed Kindle jail break?

We can not give you advice when all you tell us is: "It doesn't work".
Tell us instead what you are doing (key pressed, etc) and what is the result.
= = = =
Most often made error with your result:
Failure to put the
file named:
jb at the root of the visible usb storage (right alongside the /documents directory).
The jail break is posted as an
archive named: jb.zip -
Open it (that is: un-zip it) -
Inside the archive you will find a
directory (a.k.a: folder) named: jb -
Inside the directory you will find a
file named: jb -
Put that
file named jb at the root of the visible usb storage.
NOT the
jb.zip archive.
NOT the
directory named jb.
Just the
file named jb, nothing else.
Then follow the directions.
