I've already JB'd by Kindle Paperwhite 10th Gen on 5.14.2 using the WatchThis method, back in May. My 100% sole reason to jailbreak was for custom screensavers, which I've got running grand.

But during the WatchThis jb, something happened with my Goodreads integration, meaning I can no longer update my reading progress with the share > Goodreads option. It's a small feature, I know, and I'm likely one of like 8 people that use it. But I like it, and I'm used to it.

So, my question is, since my PW is already jailbroken, can I downgrade the firmware with the goal of using a fresh jailbreak meant for an older firmware, so that the Goodreads integration still works?

Or is that a silly / unfeasible plan? Or is there a fix for the goodreads thingy? Or a KUAL for Goodreads ( or even Storygraph, so I can de-amazon my Kindle as much as I can )?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated!
