Tutorial WatchThis - Software Jailbreak for any Kindle <= 5.14.2 - Page 71

Replying to my own comment.

For my situation it appears that there is a step between 5 and 6 of the jailbreak instructions. That is to "eject" (safely remove or the like I guess, "eject" for me on linux mint) the kindle from your PC.

I also think steps 7 and 8 should be reversed to make more sense. I had the "application error" but was able to follow the rest of the instructions.

So I think I'm jailbroken...? Is there some way to know that all has worked? I expected there to be some notice under "device info" but I see nothing.

Jailbreak 7. and 8.

After typing ;enter_demo and reboot, I am landing in demo configure device again, typing ;enter_demo
and again.

In this demo mode, PC-Linux shows me no content of the mounted PW2.
