Jailbreak Kindle PW3 5.9.4?
Hi,
So been reading this forum for a time  , to see if I can jailbreak my kindle. It's not brand new, I mean it was updated by amazon to 5.9.4 a while ago.Can I still jailbreak it? with this method : https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=313086 Also, should be registred, and ad free, or doesn't matter?

Do It Now ! Manually down load 5.9.6.1 and update your Kindle to that version. https://s3.amazonaws.com/firmwaredow...te_5.9.6.1.bin Then follow directions for 5.9.6.1 in the thread you linked to. Being registered and ad-free only matters if you have to recover from a bad firmware update. So it is your own choice. Since your device is now out of warranty (for a free exchange if bricked) ... |

I already did for the OTA blocking folder.
Also, It's already registred. I don't get ad when it's on screensaver mode, how should I know if it's readlly ad free? |

The kernel version is dependent on the firmware version. So if the kernel modules and other software parts needed by KindleLazy have not already been built for your model/firmware version combination .... Then somebody (perhaps yourself) will have to build them for your combination. |

Just to confirm that KindleLazy is working on my PW3, 9.5.4
I just purchased this cheap remote control and it worked. |
