try this method.
1) download the bin file from here
2) Place in the root folder of Kindle,
3) Go to settings > update the kindle : click it
4) It should update to 5.4.4.2 now.

- I think you can update from 5.3.3 to 5.6.1 directly no need to update to 5.4.4.2
- Do all the steps ( Dev cert + MRPI + KUAL ) when you are in 5.3.3 then in final step update to 5.6
Hi.

I have reset my kindle PW1 and now I can not register it. It is connected to my Wifi but tells all time "Connection error. Try again later." I am in 5.3.4 firmware version. How did you manage to register it after reseting it?

PD: I have seen I can continue with the process without registering. I will try it when updating to the 5.6.1 version

PD2: Registered after updating to 5.6.1 with no problem

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! I have Koreader last version running again in my PW1 following the instructions you posted here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...postcount=1333

Of course I want also to thank all the developers that made possibile to use my Kindle with a better reading software through all this 13 years.

The only thing that I want to know if there is a way to prevent Amazon to update my Kindle in any way (firmware, contents, jailbreak...) because I want to use OTA updates for Koreader and I need the Wifi connection for it. Until this reset and update I have made I had installed the backdoor method.
