However, if its an unregistered device then the problem that you face is that the moment you register it will download an OTA (presumably 5.18.1+) and thus not allow for Winterbreak. The solution that I've seen (though haven't tried myself) is to fill the Kindle's storage space up over USB, so there's only about 20mb left. Then you register and because there isn't enough space to store the OTA, it won't download. Then you can jailbreak and prevent OTAs and you might be fine. You don't need any real data, just a bunch of dummy files will do. You can delete them after you've disabled OTAs.

Note that the filling method has had mixed results according to some & by others in the thread. May or may not work but you could try it.
