• Use at your own risk!

• If you are new to jailbreak, turn off WiFi! (via Aeroplane/Airplane mode).
• Remove the update.bin.tmp.partial file (if it exists) from the Kindle root directory.
• If you use renameotabin, you must Restore OTA Binaries before using BinaryRenamer.

Usage:
[...]

BinaryRenamer and renameotabin are not compatible. Restore changes made by renameotabin and then use BinaryRenamer.

after i tap block device logging and reboot .
i got stuck on screen. help!

iam using PW2 2012

[Daviteusz]

In which screen?

[Yuin]

in start up screen (screen with boy and tree). its just stuck / freeze.
i cant going into home screen.
i still can access to system diags but cant connect to kindle usb storage.
i think and hopefully system diags can still save my device but iam not know how to it since i jailbreak it very long ago.

I have a serious problem, when I lock and then unlock the Wi-Fi does not come back. Wi-Fi is not activated, how can I activate it?
There seems to be some kind of problem. The kindle is a signature edition.

Sorry, I think I can post you only some instructions how to unbrick pw2, but I didn't tested these tutorials:

Apparently changing the name of the binaries for older fw versions is not a good idea, I will add the information to the main post, it won't help you, but others will miss the problem thanks to this.

Undo the changes made in BinaryRenamer and see if this has solved the problem. If not, then the cause may be different.

thanks for respond , unfortunately unbrick with soldering skill is beyond my skill.
i still hope someone can sharing other method.

I'm very new to kindle developing so I'm not very familiar with the systems involved; but wouldn't it be simpler to sink the API/server calls in `/etc/hosts` instead? That way logs are still functional for local use.
