Im now stuck with firmware 5.7.2 which is the bin. file i installed from the 'how to jailbreak' guide. I also installed the Hot fix file after i jailbreaked it. And i have tried the whole day to find out how to remove the jailbreak or at least be able to update it to the latest firmware 5.8.2.
My kindle is a Paperwhite 3 wifi from europe.
I would really appreciate if anyone could help me with this problem.
The first six characters of your device's serial number please.
Also the link to your device's Amazon update page that you used.
If you don't like KOreader, then just remove KOreader.
The jail break file does not have any effect on your ability to update the device, you have something else wrong.
