Install one of the versions of customer firmware builds.

See: Current jail break, step #7, open spoiler.
All of those could be jailbroken again if something went wrong during your testing.
There are new firmware versions than those I list.
But there has never yet been a 5.9.<anything> for the e-ink Kindles.
5.8.9.0.2 was the previous 'current' firmware and I think your '.8' pair of keys is not working.


Those version numbers use periods as field separators, not as decimal points, it isn't a floating point number. (Amazon is the only people I can think of that uses five fields. The rest of the world gets along with only three.)

Okay, I'll do it, It's really annoying, I'm messing up the digits.

I'm going for 5.8.7.0.1. Just finished installing everything again

Now some logs. Did an ;dm and I'm trying to make sense of the parts with WebLaunch.

Spoiler:

If I'm right, it seems the app is killed here:

Ok, managed to find some interesting things.

There's two WAF's js systems. wafjs and the newer kindle.js.

Looks like the registration of the commands where outdated, now they need a file:// to start an mesquite application.

I'm creating a barebone app and I'll add the functionalities that I need
