Under what conditions is UYK grayed out ?
What had you put on the Kindle at the visible root of USB storage when you checked it?

Go to:

Scroll towards bottom of that post, all the way to Step #7.
At the bottom of Step #7 find a spoiler in the "Amazon" section:
Open spoiler - read list of PW2 download links.

Note:
There are also newer versions for the PW2 - that list is only of the versions that can be jail broken.

Note:
Step #7 also describes the folder name you can add to the Kindle to stop it from OTA updating without your approval.

Note:
Nothing else of that post, other than those two details of Step #7, is of any interest to you - unless you intend to use any of our after market add-ins.
