5.6.5 Jailbreak pass/fail models

So far we have reported successes with the PW2, PW3, KT2, and KV.
(Most were using the English interface, but there was also a... PW3 I think... using Chinese.)

So if specific batches within a device generation (e.g. broken down by whatever requires an individual update package) do NOT matter, then it should work universally.

If devices broken down by serial number DO matter, then we still need those serial numbers reported, so, just in case....

Well, it looks like this idea is not worthwhile, see first two reports below:

Yup. I also updated the FAQ I wrote up in the first post of the jailbreak thread.

And, we **should** have the ""downgrade"" package for all of them.
Currently testing in another thread here.

Worked on Kindle 5.6.5 Voyage with 3G (B053 0907) and PW3 (B0D4 2204). Both set to English interface, without factory reset.

I had trouble with PW3 for a moment, because I disabled JavaScript a long time ago in the browser. After enabling JS all went smooth.

pw3 (G090 G205) - US 3G - jailbreak worked without issues, and survived update to 5.7.2

no more pencils and typewriter pictures :-)

thanks everybody for help :-)

Works on KV WiFi B013 0907 set to english US interface.

2gb PW2 90D4 also successfully jailbroken! I transferred the jb file and update bin, then went to http://45.78.56.44/jb/ and followed the instructions. Airplane mode back on, Settings -> Update, and success! Very easy to do, and I'm already reaping the benefits.

Kindle Voyage Wifi, B013 0907, UK English. It worked.
