Question Kinda confused with upgrade...

I can see a bunch of threads in this forum that seem to be useful for those wishing to upgrade the Kindle firmware using hack tools... Being one of those tempted ones and given the number of various instruction threads, I'm confused as to which method I should go with for my 'virgin' Kindle PW. Just checked that I have the 5th generation PW (B024) released back in 2012 with firmware v5.6.1.1, which hasn't been updated for a couple of years now.

Can you pls advise (i) if I can upgrade the firmware from its current version indicated above; and (ii) if I can, which thread should I check for the upgrade?

Thank you!
