- Registered for a temporary Amazon.fr account
- Set Amazon.fr's account address and payment details to be some FR address
- Deregister my Kindle Scribe from my Amazon.com account
- Register the Kindle Scribe to Amazon.fr account
- Turn on ads for Kindle Scribe in Amazon.fr account
- Send a book to the Kindle Scribe to trigger Ad
- There will be a single sponsor Ad on the home page
- Put Kindle Scribe into airplane mode and start jailbreaking
- For Adbreak package, I downloaded the latest (v1.1) from https://github.com/KindleModding/AdBreak/releases
- Triggered the sponsor ad in main page and it should ask for WiFi followed by the start of jailbreaking
- Installed Hotfix

I feel like I'm so close. I completed the same steps on a Scribe (1st generation, also on 5.18.5.0.1) , and got the French ad of a girl and a telescope, which seems to be a Kindle store ad. Once I replace the page using the batch file, copy it back, and then try to click the ad to kick off the script, it deletes the numerical folder out of the .assets folder, and then it's like the device no longer has ads, but it is also not jailbroken. Am I doing something wrong here?
