If you get it to work, please post your device and language settings. Think we have PW3 and Voyage verified so far.

Just wanted to post an update -- the KV I ordered on Wednesday arrived today and had 5.6.5 installed. I suspect this will continue to be the case for a while (obviously no guarantees, YMMV). I was also able to turn it on and go through set-up (using only 3G) without any OTA downloads happening -- and it's now safely ensconced in airplane mode while I try to figure out if I can follow the instructions already posted for BD's jailbreak or need something simpler!
Thanks BD!

Please wait for someone to post better step-by-step instructions. Posting "I can't get it to work" isn't going to solve anything.

That might work if you where trying to jailbreak your computer, but your trying to jailbreak your Kindle.

Use the Kindle's browser to view 'a'

failed to jb my KV 5.6.5.
I think the reason is root fs is mounted read-only and jb cannot write file into it.
is there any way to work around this?

jb is running as framwork(9000) user with root(0) group
I even tried 'sudo mount -o remount,rw /' or 'su -c mount -o remount,rw /' but no luck.

thanks!

Huh????

How are you running sudo on your Kindle?

Are you using the serial port jailbreak? Wrong thread.

Both of those things are accounted for in the JB process.

That is: Your KV-5.6.5 isn't any different than anyone else's.

Re-check your local setup or wait for easier to follow directions.

No, not using serial port jb.
Just the jb tool released by BD today.

I made some modifications to 'jb' script so I can troubleshooting and try some commands such as ls, touch, mount etc.

It ships with the Wifi on -
The 'trick' is to get out of the setup sequence (not the registration, it comes pre-registered) so that you can turn wifi (and 3g) off.
