Log of how it went:
- Opened on Airplane, ensured firmware version 5.18.6
- Filled up the space, reads 0.00 GB of 27.30 GB
- Opened the website. Big picture of Jeff Bezos' face with an "L" on his forehead, tells me to press the L to jailbreak
- Pressed a few times, doesn't seem to do anything. Paused to type this and it goes back to the main menu saying"Application Error. The selected application could not be started. Please try again."
- Trying again.
- Looked like nothing happened at first but got text overlay on screen showing nosb jailbreak and a "finished jailbreak, please install HOTFIX now" message!!!!!!
- Installing hotfix:
- Put back in airplane mode
- Downloaded hotfix file
- Plugged in USB and deleted a single 10MB space-filling file to allow enough space for hotfix
- Dropped into root
- No other .bin files...
- Ejected, unplugged...
- On Kindle navigated to "Update your Kindle" and accepted update
- IT'S WORKING!
- Couple minutes later back to home screen with "Run Hotfix" book. Tapped and run!
@hhhhhhhhh a massive thank you to you and everyone else involved, fantastic effort!
