Any idea why this might be happening?

I have a Paperwhite 2 on kindle 5.8.10
Because the system keeps updating?

The 'backdoor lock' does not work, has not worked for several years.

Currently, you can't get an update, 5.8.10 is as new as it gets.

Go to the current jail break thread:

Scroll down to Step #7 -
Install the 'blocker directory' describe there.

Then re-install anything that seems to be broke.
