Very sorry for going off topic here, but can I go on a bit of a rant? Remembered my Kindle after not using it for a year (my siblings did though a few months back). Charged it for 15 minutes and as soon as was possible turned. Found out that it was not jailbreakable as it was on 5.15.1 (> 5.14.2) and was a bit disappointed, but didn't mind. Was bored so spent 15 minutes researching and found this absolute masterpiece. I got VERY excited as I wanted to do this for a few years now. Began doing the steps (made sure there were no .bin or partial files too), but upon completion of the steps it didn't work and I got no logs. Mind you this entire time I was on airplane mode. Ok I think, I'll just try updating to 5.16.2.1.1. I go to do that and it says invalid update file. I realised that I was taking the wrong update file, so I went and took the correct one, and... still invalid update file?? I try like 7 times, but then I realised... AT SOME POINT - AMAZON DECIDED THAT WE'RE GOING TO 5.16.5. I know this is just a Kindle, but I'm FURIOUS NOW. Amazon corporate people, if you're reading this, [Deleted - ed.]. Now, everybody else reading, sorry for taking up precious screen space and sorry for the rant - just no one tell about this pain.
