Attempting to root a K3 with 3G in 2019
Hey, so I have a Kindle 3 with 3G, and I am wanting to root it, pretty much just so I can get a terminal with a SSH client on it. I do a lot of Linux work, so, having something I can toss in my pocket with a big size screen to connect to my servers would be pretty cool.
Now, here's my problem. So many of the links I see appear to be specific to the wifi only version, are now dead, or go for older versions of the firmware (it has 3.4.2 on it). I just don't want to brick it. |

That'd be https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=88004
It was recently(-ish) updated to account for the final FW versions in a slightly less convoluted way than it used to. Then once you get KUAL + MRPI running, https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=225030 for actually up to date packages ![]() Last edited by NiLuJe; 08-21-2019 at 09:51 AM. |
