sure, sure.
basically what I tried to do was to jailbreak Kindle paperwhite 3 black Wifi, the one without ads. This is what I did:
1. Kindle Paperwhite 3 black arrived yesterday running 5.7.4, I connected it to the wifi and got it registered I followed all the steps and when I put the kindle-jb-factory.tar.gz and typed ;installHtml nothing happened. Screen just flashes back to the home page.
2. I decided to download and install 5.7.4 from pastebin. It was installed absolutely fine, it took less than 10 minutes. I put the kindle-jb-factory.tar.gz and tried again and it failed like before.
3. I used both Linux and widows both failed
4. I reset and tried, it failed
5. I was advised to try and install hotfix anyway just to see. But hotfix update failed with error 7
6 I reset it and kept it unregistered with airplane mode on again, it failed
7. I used 4 different browsers to download kindle-jb-factory both in Linux widows again it failed.
8 I used the snapshot (v 1.2) kindle-jb-factory again it failed
9. I tried with different cables, different USB ports with/without the magnetic cover it also failed
So am pretty much run out options but I will keep an eye on this topic if you would like me to try/test anything different please let me know.
Many thanks
P.S apologies for any mistakes/typos I might have made.
