I have two specific question, the first: how I identify my specific model?, my serial number begin with G090 G105, is it G090G1 model? or is it just G090 model?;
my second question is about jail break, my PW3 has 5.8.5.0.2 firmware version (it update in front of my eyes without me being able to do anything  ). With that firmware Can I do jail break on my Kindle?
Thank you all for your comments and I ask excuse for my English, I am in the process of learning |

Use four of the first six characters, older Kindles: xxxx xx, newer Kindles: xx xxxx in this table:
|
Looking at the table, you can see three groups of serial numbers.
Older models, first character: B or 9
Newer models, first character: G
Yours starts with a: G
So look up: xx
xxxx
You have a G0 90G1 - the first PW3 model released.

Software jail break for the 6th, 7th, and 8th generation devices listed in the title, running any known firmware version.

Your model (PW3) is listed in the title.
So that means you and the current firmware version does not matter.

Translation:
You are in the correct place, this is the jail break thread for your device.
