We have at least three confirmations that this method works reliably, including my PW2 (running FW 5.7.4) yesterday, a KV last night, and today another PW2 (running FW 5.8.1) that have jailbreak installed over USB. Announcement was delayed due to some previous brick-causing issues, which we believe have been resolved. As always, follow provided instructions CAREFULLY, and all should be fine (but proceed at your own risk).

As always, follow provided instructions CAREFULLY, and all should be fine (but proceed at your own risk). Spoiler: EDIT: [No longer relevant] I think the "10 downloads per week" and "500MB maximum file size" (hence multi-part ZIPs) were temporary due to the bandwidth over-consumption during the "simple debricking" initial craze (before kubrick automated the procedure, with these images built-in). As you can see, one of the new downloads is over 700MB, and no problems so far. Though if you download too many files too quickly, mediafire will want "captcha" confirmation that you are not a bot, and its "captcha" system seems to be broken today. If you experience difficulties with mediafire downloads, use an alternate download link (which may incur server costs for the link donor). Last edited by geekmaster; 08-18-2016 at 08:18 AM.
