The Firmware version(s) mentioned and Hardware model(s) mentioned are only references to what was used during the development of the directions, they are not limitations.
All devices (except the 2 Oasis models) since (and including) the K4 use the same process, with the same serial port pin-out, with changes to filenames only - with a possible exception of the filesystem layout of the PW4. So don't try to brick your new PW4 just yet. 
In [2] you will find links to electrical connection methods other than using "hot solder". If not experienced with that skill, check out the contents of those links. |
Does that mean that I can also apply the jailbreak that was installed in step 24 of [2]?
I had thought only to make the connection by serial and install SSH to make it more comfortable so:
1- I need to do the jailbreak?
2- What advantages does it add? what cool things jailbreak add?
3- Do I need the jailbreak to install SSH?
4- If I have access by SSH, and update the Kindle firmware, do I still have access by SSH?
5- I have soldering experience, but I prefer not to weld anything to my Kindle, I had thought to do it like here [
4], no problem no?
Thanks!
