			Hello everybody! 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Since I got my Kindle 4 NT I've been browsing this forum for methods to add custom screensavers. For the old firmware the method with the RUNME.sh and the tar.gz folder worked fine, but then I got my Kindle replaced (one of the buttons didn't work properly), and first thing I updated the 'new' Kindle to FW 4.1.0. Then I noticed that the screensaver hack didn't work anymore. -.- I don't think I'm able to JB the Kindle myself, so has anyone a method where I don't need to jailbreak the whole thing? Like the one I used earlier? (I read some threads about the new FW, but apparently nobody updated with no hack installed before...).. Thanks in advance for your answers! Tina  |

			Hmm...  No prefix on your post title.  But context says "K4" 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Did you try the: top-sticky -> prefix-index -> K4 -> sreensaver path? Wasn't that thread helpful? Did that seem like the place to ask?  |

 I don't think, you need jailbreak for this, but you need ssh access (search wiki).  |
