By double taping power button I mean double clicking, i.e. clicking power button and doing it again within ~1-2 seconds.
By information gathering I mean screen on the left below (sometimes it bugs out and displays text above 'screensaver' image, but most of the time the text is on blank screen), that looks like some sort of debugging reboot with logging capability. After that disappears Kindle performs normal power on cycle (on the right).

That is the complete description, there is nothing else that it does.
I just though that this may be some sort of debugging reset that is added with jailbreak.

I use it only because sometimes my backlight bugs out with the magnetic cover and doesn't turn on even though the Kindle is awake and displays normally (also sometimes screen turns off, but not backlight, but this is much less common). Typically cycling the screen fixes that, but if I click the button too fast it reboots, like I described before.

I'm running firmware 5.3.3 (downgraded thanks to holocen's post) on PW1 (B024) and jailbroken thanks to this topic, if I remember correctly I have only installed ixtab's Collections Manager (I don't remember installing anything else and that's only .azw2 file in documents folder).
