Yes, you are still jailbroken. You need to reinstall the screensaver hack.

The jailbreak has been available for some time now, and the advice to turn off wifi/3G while waiting for it has been here even longer.

I would not advise you to turn off wifi/3G now. The horse has already bolted. But the next time (if there is a next time) someone says they have a jailbreak for your firmware, but are waiting for a fix to be released, TURN OFF WIFI/3G!

Alternatively, see the serial port jailbreak, it is a sticky in this subforum.

Sorry you got unexpectedly updated but the advice was given to disable WiFi.

Yes, seriously.
Some people DID jailbreak on 5.6.5 and then updated to 5.7.2 (.1) and want to go back.

For those people, there is a very technical way to do that (maybe - some have reported problems).

Excuse me but I'm a newbie about kindle world. Is this a third way to jailbreak a kindle? Or it verify only a right jailbreaking?

It uses the 5.6.5 jailbreak files without requiring a networking setup or the use of a public jb server.

That is:
Only the Kindle and the contents of the zip file are involved.

I am not sure if you would want to call it a 'third way' - specially since I don't know what you consider the first two ways.

First method: connect to http://45.78.56.44/jb/ or http://kindlefere.com/jb/ via Experimental Browser.
Second method: first jailbreak by Branch Delay

All are the same.
The two public jb servers you mention are running the files unarchived from BD's jailbreak.
