I recently bought a Paperwhite (10th generation) Waterproof s/n G000 PP13 **** **** (it came with firmware 5.12.4). I followed steps 1 to 6 sucessfully (installed FW 5.10.1.3 Factory) but when I copied main-htmlviewer.tar.gz file to the top level of the visible USB storage and typed installHtml in the search bar nothing changed (no rebooting nor jailbreak). I am on Windows 7 64 and extracted the files using 7-zip.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
