Tools Software Jailbreak for PW2, PW3, PW3W, KT2, KV, KOA and KT3

[NiLuJe]

@gwynevans: Good to know that KUAL is a no-go on the KV on 5.5.0, we know there are some potential issues of the sort, but I don't remember if we've kept exact track of it for newer devices, thanks .

Glad it works on 5.8.1, though.

As for ;dm (and other commands, notably historically one to enable USBNet), it's been there since basically the dawn of time (i.e., igorsk's original blog post about getting into the K1) .

As homeceo43 post in #303, i get the same result.

KUAL not working either after upgrade to 5.8.0.1 .

;installHtml && jb are all ok, just KUAL cannot start, so i confused whether it is jailbroken or not.

Thank you for all your great work!

It is jailbroken,
KUAL has not (yet) been updated.

Is there a reason you are not running 5.8.1?
What are the first six characters of your device's serial number?

KUAL is KUAL-v2.6.2-gc367062-20160708.tar.xz

Those **should** be the correct packages for your device.

@NiLuJe:
Any thoughts on this matter?

[NiLuJe]

Amazon definitely pulled the plug on Kindlets on the Oasis? :/

I'm afraid someone with actual Java knowledge will probably have to dig deeper on that one...

They have a reference (and a copy) of geekmaster's archive index also.

This is all coming to an end RSN.

Which means I will lose a day or two of productive time, filtering out the bandwidth thieves (we three pay for this out of our own pockets, not Mobileread, not anyone from China).

Sorry! It's my fault to link your original .bin files, which caused the extra work & cost from your team. If I know this is out of your own pocket, I would never do this. Just now I removed all original links from the page, and I am happy to know if anything else not acceptable. Sorry again for all inconvenience we may have caused.

BTW, appreciate the hard work from you & your team on jailbreak & other things for Kindle. We learned a lot and benefited a lot.

or a re-write in GTK+ ?
(where is twobob when we really need him? <- rhetorical question.)

Thank you very much.
Top post updated with credit to your site (in several places).

You should probably have someone watching that top post, it still is fast changing and where corrections are first listed.

Note that the new factory firmware (5.7.4-factory) for the PW-3 **should** be used by all of those people with the White, PW-3 in your comments section.

Note the hackaday announcement, at:
https://hackaday.com/2016/07/09/a-ja...-every-kindle/
You might want to add a comment that the problem has been fixed, and get a mention of your own site in the process.

Thanks again.
Glad we can be of help.

Sorry to sound like a Nimrod but what is the main purpose of the jailbreak. Just wondering if it will beneft me. Thank you much.

[homeceo43]

@NiLuJe and @knc1,

There are two files listed in the root folder on the KOA, I'm pretty sure they were there after completing the jailbreak procedure, and before I tried to install KUAL files. I'm still at 5.7.4 on the Oasis.

file.ser

version.ser

And actually I do not remember seeing these 2 files before I even attempted the jailbreak on the Oasis.

Do you know what the files are? Would they have any affect on KUAL not working?

I tried opening these files with Notepad++; they are not very readable.

These two particular files were not on the Voyage after the jailbreak (or before). I had upgraded the Voyage twice the other day... to 5.7.4 then up to 5.8.1. These two files were never listed at any point.

Thank you and let me know how I can help.

Hi Nimrod. Haven't seen you since Yahoo camel days.
And in answer to your question, what would you like to do with your kindle?
The spoiled_princess would like to know.

PS:if this post makes no sense, you aren't the Nimrod I knew online years ago.

No.

KUAL is not (yet) Oasis compatible.

Do us a favor - try Aries Menu on it.
(I may have slightly misspelled her name, someone help out here.)
