For windows:
1. download and open ygjsz's MfgTool.exe on PC
2. connect kindle to pc
3. on kindle: get up to reset prompt using settings/device options/restart ("no/yes" buttons--but don't reset yet)
4. connect CR and TP pins and hold.
5. while holding the pins, press "yes" to restart kindle
6. should hear usb device connecting on pc, and "HID device" on pc (MfgTool.exe)
7. click START on MfgTool.exe. ok to disconnect pins-this step installs the jailbreak
8. install NiLuJe's hotfix
