If you had looked four lines down on the index page, you would have found it:

If you decide to do the jailbreak after reading that, PM me for access to the file you will need.

Fantastic! Thank you! I have been scouring for a while and was overwhelmed by firmware versions and model numbers. Just needed a Short answer.

Very much appreciated. I'll have a read and will be in touch.

Thanks

Can I test Jailbreak with my KPW3-32GB with serial?
Is the pinout the same as KPW3?

I got one invalidated device which Amazon told me to trash it. So I can just play around with it for fun. What if I can JB this device, are there anything that I can do with it? (Because it won't register with Amazon account anymore)

Thanks.

Install a fake registration file so that you can use if normally (other than for contacts with Amazon - which will just delete the fake registration).

Search for the "Fake Registration" thread, start with the most recent post and work backwards.
That way you will find the most recent file format.

You can always Jailbreak the device, it has a well documented serial port.

So you will have to re-install the "hotfix" after it is de-registered and again after it is registered.
I did as you directed, reinstalling the hotfix after deregistration and after reregistration. After the Kindle finished rebooting when I installed the hotfix the first time (after deregistration), a message came up saying that "Your Kindle is no longer a test Kindle and is unable to test items previously signed by authorized developers". From Googling old threads here, this appears to be normal behavior, and I think what I should have done was deregister, reboot, and then install the hotfix. In any case, after installing the hotfix again after reregistering, the jb is still there and the hacks run.

Had a read through this, but it appears to be for PW3-4, PW3-32, fw-5.8.9.0.1


I have a Kindle (KT3) with firmware 5.8.9.0.1, does the thread you link still apply or should I be looking for a different one.

Thanks again.

I do not see any mention of the model of Kindle you where inquiring about.
Your "info box" only lists: "Kindle"
How was I suppose to know what model you have?

It is for the PW3 with that specific firmware, which is the only published "special case".
"special case" was all I had to go on.

Yes, the KT3 is (**should be**) another special case, just not this special case.
Use:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=275877
It will work on a KT3, running any firmware version (except, maybe, 5.9.2 - which hasn't been tested).

Hey there! Of course you weren't supposed to know, and I'm not implying you should have.

Many thanks for pointing me in the correct direction again. Much appreciated.

Hi there,

Not being able to download any of your files. It appears they are no longer publicly available?

Are you saying we need to find the files elsewhere than what you have linked to in the original post?

When trying to download a file in step #3 this is the message I am getting:


"File Download

The file you are trying to access is no longer available publicly.

Please contact the user who has shared this file with you."

The OP should be edited to be 100% clear about that fact. As in replace the links with "go google for _filename_, md5 checksum should be X".
