First of all, I have to say, updating amazon kindle is like buying lottery.
I used 5.4.x for a long time and no problems at all. and after a few crappy updates from amazon, 5.7.2.1 amazed me again with new UI and everything. then I tried 5.8.x, it is totally nightmare!!!!

I got 5.8.9.2 updates pushed from amazon, then my kindle paperwhite 2 just keeps rebooting over and over again, occasionally it can booted into system and but when I open certain books, it stuck!

anyone can help me on downgrading it back to 5.7.2.1 or any stable firmwares?
