Follow to the instructions from https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=275877 by knc1

1/ Downgrade to v5.7.4 by “update_KOA_5.7.4_initial.bin” – ok (See attached pic_1)

2/ JB by “main-htmlviewer.tar.gz” – ok (See attached pic_2)

3/ Install “hotfix by Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.14.N_install.bin” - remove USB cable after copied the file, the device show up Update Error (See attached pic_3)

Have any idea about this problem?
Remove the last part of your serial number from your post. Example in the quote I made here.

Remove any update_*.bin file from the top of visible USB storage.
Either ours or any received over Wifi.

Enable 'Airplane Mode'

Now repeat Step #1.
Did you find your device's serial number in the table?

Now tell me what part of:
Quote:
The factory images **are not** model locked, your care taken with this step is your Kindle's only protection! If not found in the table, STOP HERE and tell us.
did not translate for you?
Specifically the: STOP HERE part of the second sentence.

You will have to re-package the 'hotfix' update_*.bin file to recognize your model using KindleTool.
Although KindleTool does not have your model built-in, it can be used to build a package for a model passed on its command line.

Somebody here will help you with doing that if you have any problems doing it yourself.

Do not update the Kindle away from the 'factory use only' firmware until you have installed the 'hotfix' package.
Without the 'hotfix' package, any update will wipe out the jail break.

You will have to re-package the KUAL booklet the same way.
Also, any other package in an: update_*.bin format file name.
