Hi guys & girls,

I just put my hand on an Kindle Touch 3 8th White ( G000 KA05 ) and try to make it a bit more efficient than the vanilla version. When i got it, it was under the 5.8.10 firmware.

So i jaillbreak it successfully with the downgrade method by using this site

https://www.ereader-palace.com/how-t...e-2016-method/

After that i update to the latest amazon firmware: 5.8.11

Then i install MPRI ( kual-mrinstaller-1.6 ), Kual 2.7, and then kindle-kpvbooklet-0.6.4 & KOReader v2015.11 by followinf these instructions:

Everything went good, no error, but now when i try to open pdf or epub ( without drm ), the screen flash, and bring me back to the home.
If i try to launch KOReader from KUAL, it's the same, screen flash & back to home.

So i do a factory reset, retry the whole process, but dont upgrade to the latest firmware, and keep the KT3_5.8.0 who it needed to the jaillbreak, everything good, no install problem, but it do the same, i can't read any file ( in fact i can't even read pdf with the native reader ).

So i'm bit confuse because i'dont see where and when the problem came... If you have any ideas youre welcolme.

Ps: Sry for the language, english is no my born language.
