Happy New Year!
Apologies for posting this thread as it surely explained somewhere in forum. But I'm still not 100 % sure with the answer or exactly how to do it if it is possible and not bricking my device.
So as it should be seen from the title I have jailbroken Paperwhite 3 which is currently running firmware 5.10.1.1 and for some reasons I want to go back to 5.9.7 ( randomly the number of page/time left in ... at the bottom disappears and also font type is changing without my intervention for few pages and then back again).
As my understanding should be possible using Downgrader from NiLuJe's Snapshots.Extracting the downgrader's archive, puting the .bin file from archive in MRPI folder on my Kindle, making "official_update" folder in root Kindle's directory and put Amazon's 5.9.7 update there. Please tell me if I'm right or wrong?
