Works like a charm here (0.27N), thank you very much!

Also, just to make it clear: If you already had jailbroken your Kindle, it's still jailbroken after the 3.0.3 update, and all your hacks still work. The only thing broken is the *install* of the jailbreak on a *vanilla* 3.0.3 Kindle.

Hm, I just ordered a white 3G model to be delivered to the Hotel I am staying at in the US next week. Hoping it has 'old' software on it. Might just take the jailbreak with me!

NiLuJe · 10-19-2010, 12:47 PM

@Pushka: Well, if it is shipped with 3.0.3, I'll release the new jailbreak (or it will already have been released), so, no worry

Hi!

New guy here. Joined because of the info I found in this thread. Major props to everybody who has contributed.

I just got my brand new Kindle3 today it's a 3G international (I'm in Europe) but the serial number starts with B006!?

Aren't those supposed to be the serial numbers for US versions?

Anyway I'll be patiently waiting for the new jailbreak version for 3.03, because the original screen savers are driving me nuts.

Welcome to MobileRead SierraLimaOscar! That is strange that you didn't receive a Kindle starting with B00A.

Nevertheless, did you new Kindle arrive with firmware 3.0.3? If it came with with an earlier version of the 3.x firmware, you can use the current jailbreak before the new update is updated (manually or OTA).

NiLuJe · 10-19-2010, 03:25 PM

@SierraLimaOscar: Yeah, it depends on your main country, or possibly the alignment of the stars when you checkout, because I've got a B006 in Europe too

.

Same question as daffy4u, though: Was it shipped with 3.0.3 installed from the start?

Tiersten · 10-19-2010, 03:36 PM

Yeah. What model Kindle 3G+WiFi you get depends on your country. It will use AT&T in the US and countries which Amazon have a better roaming deal for AT&T. It will use Vodafone in the UK and countries which they've got a better deal etc...

SierraLimaOscar · 10-19-2010, 04:34 PM

@daffy4u and NiLuJe
Yes shipped with 3.0.3.

@Tiersten
That explains it. In my country (Slovenia) it roams on Vodafone's competitor network.

NiLuJe · 10-19-2010, 04:40 PM

Well, as soon as I'm not on the phone anymore, I'll post the updated jb

SierraLimaOscar · 10-19-2010, 04:45 PM

No problem, take your time. I'm a patient man.

SierraLimaOscar · 10-19-2010, 04:46 PM

So is it posted yet?

SierraLimaOscar · 10-19-2010, 04:46 PM

How about now?

NiLuJe · 10-19-2010, 04:53 PM

Bump JailBreak to v0.4.N

* Works on FW 3.0.3
* NOTE: Unlike previous iterations, the update process should *succeed*

.

SierraLimaOscar · 10-19-2010, 05:45 PM

Success!!!

I only jailbreaked it to use the custom screen savers, so I can't confirm that the fonts hack works. But the ss looks fine

BTW my Kindle now says it's version 3.0.2

Many thanks!
