I was wondering if the following would work : could I update my 5.8.9 firmware version to 5.8.9.0.1 and then do the jailbreak ? I tried to look for the firmware version 5.8.9.0.1 on the amazon website but only 5.8.10 is available for KOA.

Thanks for your advice !
5.8.9.0.1 was shipped in error on some new devices.
It is not an (intentional) release by Amazon.

Copy the download URL @ the Amazon page for your device -
Change the version numeric string to 5.8.9.0.1 from whatever it is (5.8.10 currently) -
Put the edited URL in your browser's address bar, click 'load' (or 'go or whatever).

If you get that version of the update, let us know (and copy the edited link you used into your success report).
