Almost.

I am here, with a heavy heart, to confirm your suspicion. I had a working jailbroken PW3 that inadvertently got upgraded from 5.8.7 to 5.8.9, and CM has stopped working since. Now I get a popup saying:
Unsupported Firmware -
Your Kindle is running firmware 5.8.9, which is not supported by this version of Collections Manager.

A real maintenance headache.  |
I've looked for ways to downgrade the firmware, but haven't found anything after several hours of searching. I understand from the main
jailbreaking thread that the JB status on my Kindle probably survived the firmware upgrade to 5.8.9. Does this mean I still have hopes for a working CM somewhere down the road?
