It's downgraded. I don't know if the jailbreak is working after the factory reset. I connected and registered my devide, but i'm afraid to let the Wi-Fi active, lest it should happen again next time it tries to upgrade the firmware...
Cinisajoy, i got the instructions right here in this thread. I checked the model that corresponded to my kindle, and it was PW 2, so I paid close attention to the part that said ** The PW-2 is a special case at this point in the directions **
Didn't i put it? I thought that was it. 
I put the complete serial number, as described in the "repair needed" notification. I don't know what's wrong with putting it whole, but i thought my Kindle was dead and i would need to learn other ways to play with it, so...

Hi.
I just read between the lines that i was fucked. xD
I mean, that if the DO_FACTORY_RESTORE didn't work, then other methods were hopeless for a n00b such as yours truly.
What should i do next, with my now-working Kindle?
Should I let it do the automatic firmware upgrade or not? |
Complete all steps in the first post of this thread, **ALL** (other than the two you where told to skip - start at the step you where told to continue at in that same comment).
Like this for PW-2:
Step 4 - follow other post, then skip the following two steps:
Step 5 - skipped, see step #4
Step 6 - skipped, see step #4
Step 7 - next one a PW-2 owner should follow (upgrade directions)
Step 8 - the one following Step 7 that a PW-2 owner should follow (add-in package installation requirements)
(Sorry, but I thought it was obvious that if I meant "skip 4" I would not have written "skip 2".)
