My jailbreak did not survive this update. KUAL now opens with "Application Error - The selected application could not be started. Please try again."

I'm not sure what happened, why, or how, but I'm no longer jailbroken. :-(

Reinstall any hacks you had before the update.

The jailbreak survived but not what you installed afterwards.

Jailbreak survives the update. The hacks must always be reinstalled.
And if that does not fix it, then you need to install the 'hotfix'.

We now have a special one, that you put in the top level of the visible USB storage area, eject (safely remove) the Kindle from your PC, then use the UYK (Update Your Kindle) function in the 'Settings' menu.

Here is the current, UYK-HotFix package:

I just used it myself, it does work as advertised.
