Kindle Paperwhite 2 5.8.10 Serial Jailbreak
Hello all. I have my Kindle PW2 (S/N Preflix 9017), and I am planning to use the serial method to jailbreak my kindle device. I have read a couple of threads about serial jailbreaking,
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=290696 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=267541 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=263113 I have the tools and the brains but there is one thing that I can't figure out. After removing/changing the root password, how do I jailbreak? In one of the threads I saw you move the jailbreak files (consists of .sh files and other) but I don't know where and how to get it. Any suggestions? Thanks,

The first thread will do you no good.
The second thread is the one you need. Now how to jailbreak. Read all of the first post in the second thread. Including spoilers. If you do not understand something, do not attempt a jailbreak. Follow the directions exactly. Do not get off course. And do not ask the same question again in a different thread. |

 I have found what I needed in the second post, I must have passed by the downloads section XD. But there is still one question I have. The jailbreak file says its for 5.0.X to 5.4.4.2 but the post says it's for 5.6.5; can I still use it to jailbreak 5.8.10? (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...eek::bookworm:
