I just got my PW3 on 5.9.2 and started looking into jailbreaking. Would it be possible to achieve jailbreak using the serial jailbreak method? I saw someone who was able to force a downgrade by placing the firmware file in the root directory and using an option in the diagnostic console. Maybe this could help get it to an FW supporting jailbreak?

I had a little problem - could not get into diags via bootm 0xe41000 but I copied the factory firmware to the kindle in advance and when you boot up serial at some time there is a message "Press ENTER to open menu" or something like that where you could select to upgrade/downgrade the Voyage with a bin file from /mnt/us. After that I was able to use the installHtml jailbreak method.
Thanks to all
