Hello,

I just wanted to say that this downgrade method worked on my Kindle Paperwhite 3.
I followed it step by step except the special offers part which I didn't turn off prior to downgrade.

This is the combination I had success with:

- just got it so there was no notes etc., also I never used cloud just local storage and I did factory reset prior to downgrade
- Kindle was registered
- no passcode
- version G090G1
- went from 5.8.1 -> 5.7.4
- special offers were turned on and still are

I have one question though. Can I disable special offers through amazon support now that kindle is jailbroken? Can something go wrong if I do it this way? Is it safer just to rename the assets folder?
