Thanks for the suggestion, but there's no way I'm going to risk trashing a functioning but hated PW2 with my surgical skills.

Your suggestion interests me, but I really wish I knew what the heck you're talking about. (grin)

I found a Rescue Pack by ixtab and a Coward's Rescue Pack by dsmid. Are these the items you are talking about? Are they also the ones in NiLuJe's Snapshot thread? I DID find Kindlebreak and according to the log, the installation was successful. There doesn't seem to be any Android apps to open a tar.xz file. The search goes on.

OK. A Google search (as opposed to a Play Store search) rewarded me with RAR. The two files WERE from ixtab and dsmid. Now to download the USBnetwork and do some reading. (grin)
