I recently jailbroken my Kindle PW5 successfully.
Everything was working fine, I installed the hotfix and cancelled all updates, I installed koreader and was very happy. But today I accidentally chose a factory reset instead of rebooting the device and I didn't realize it right away. As a result, all the jailbreak files were deleted from the root folders of my Kindle. I was upset, but decided to just jailbreak again. But nothing worked, Winter jailbreak simply did not install, when I went to the Kindle store, the standard Amazon store really opened for me, and not the Mesquito store. I tried to figure out what the reason was and noticed that in the settings of my Kindle there is still an option KFT, which appeared there after the jailbreak. So the jailbreak was not completely removed from my Kindle after the reset. But at the same time, it does not work as before. I can not install hotfix, but kual seems to be working. Koreader isn't working.
I also can't figure out how to completely remove the jailbreak from my device. What I need now is help on how to remove all the jailbreak files from the kindle and return it to the original OS. How do I remove all the jailbreak files from the kindle if there is nothing in the root folders when I connect it to the computer? SSH didn't work too.
