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
Thanks for the detailed explanation, so I need to keep holding the pins while I click start on MfgTool, and after I click start I can let go of the pins right, this will be though to do with just two hands haha

I'm assuming I need to eject the kindle from my computer while keeping it connected to usb to be able to get to the settings/device options/restart prompt right?
