MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Kindle Basic 11th Gen (2022), can it be jailbroken?

wrathofthomas · 08-20-2023, 08:54 PM

I have tried all the search queries I can think of in the kindle thread and looked in the wiki, but I can't find a definitive answer to this. Can someone help please?
I am talking about the latest version of the Kindle basic model, Comes in Denim Blue and Black.

Is it a function of the firmware or the hardware or both?
For instance I see lots of tutorials for jailbreaking <5.14.2, does this model even come in a firmware that low? or can it be downgraded?

Honestly I can't even find what the "identifier" or common name for this device is on the forums. KT5? K8gen? KB11? This makes it hard to find any info.

Thanks
