I successfully applied this jailbreak to a PW4 on 5.17.1.0.3. Everything is working except KOReader (just waiting for working builds).

KOReader is the only real reason I want a jailbroken device. Should I consider downgrading to a pre-hf firmware, 5.16.2.x, for performance and/or compatibility? Is that safe to do from 5.17.x? I'm not looking for help/instructions performing the downgrade, just advice on whether it's a mistake to try.

Thanks all for your hard work!
