Bypassing account logins are an excellent way to keep a Kindle Scribe on an old jailbreakable firmware.
The methods that have mostly worked for me are:
1. On the firmwares without Chromium, you can use the ;-debug codes in the Webkit browser!
So, find or create a "Captive Portal" (say, xfinitywifi in some areas)...
Then, enable demo (I think ;demo ), reboot, use the magic gesture (see languagebreak) to get out of demo, use ';uzb" to enable USB mode. If your firmware is old enough, you can language break, or if not, you can creat ea 'DO_FACTORY_RESTORE' and reboot again. This wipes the files that keep it in aggressive out-of-box-experience, and you can skip setup this time
2. On some firmwares, using an open access point, not connected to anything - eg, a wifi router with no WAN plugged in, you connect to the wifi and try to register an account a couple of times - eventually the software thinks amazon is down, and lets you in. You might also want to go through DO_FACTORY_RESTORE here as well
