MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Firmware Update Updating from Very Old Firmware

BookCat · 11-10-2018, 11:20 PM

I have a Paperwhite 2 which has never been updated. The firmware currently on it is: 5.4.2.

I would like to update the firmware in order to put custom fonts on the PW. I realise that I can't update to the latest firmware so was wondering what I can do.

I don't have wifi, so this will have to be done via usb, but I haven't a clue where to begin.

Please help.
