Hello,

I haven't been on this forum since 2020 when I jailbroke my PW4 running FW 5.10.1.3. I was wanting to find out if there is a safe(ish?) way to get my kindle on a newer firmware version and what the process would be. I looked around in the guides and could not find an updating process? Some sections say something about a hotfix surviving an update but I have no clue if a jailbreak from 2 years ago would still be able to survive. Any help would be appreciated and let me know if you have any questions or if I have missed something.

Thanks,
C
