Hey thanks to answering my question without being a condescending prick like a lot of users here.

Just wanted to confirm, jailbreak was no big deal to me, just wanted to change the screensaver.

I think this forum allows PMs for new members after 3 posts. (it's 3 or 4). So if that member makes one more post, PMs should be possible there.

New members can use the thread in the feedback forum below to request early PM privileges.

The same question has been asked over and over and over just this past couple of weeks. The crankiness is certainly understandable.

Junket · 12-11-2019, 01:40 PM

Regular contributors here spend a lot of time developing solutions and/or helping members, without much appreciation.

And there are two or three questions that just get asked over and over. A new member that asks for specialized help & gets miffed over trivial etiquette is unreasonable and unappreciative.

samflynn · 12-14-2019, 10:22 AM

I had jailbroken my kindle PW4 when it was at it's factory FW. (had installed the hotfix, also had the update blocking folder in Root)

Recently, I made two stupid mistakes - reset my Kindle and connected to the wifi at set up, and now my kindle is at FW 5.10.1.3.

My jailbreak shouldn't have been lost - so I installed MRPI (transferred the folders inside "kual-mrinstaller-1.7.N-r16737.tar.xz" to the root)

Tried installing KUAL- by running ;log mrpi on "Update_KUALBooklet_v2.7.22_install.bin" which went fine and I have the KUAL icon in my library.
However I get a blank screen on opening it, have restart to get out.

Could someone please help out?

Also, assuming I can get KUAL to work, do I need to install a hotfix that keeps the jailbreak for future mistakes that lead to FW updates?

Kindle PW4
Serial Number G000 PP07 8334
FW 5.10.1.3

Thanks!

@samflynn
Install KUAL (coplate)

And install the latest hotfix to protect the jb.

Worked. Thank you!

As all you know, after jailbreak, made on the initial factory firmware 5.10.1.3, one should install customer firmware.
On all PW4s any version of the customer firmware equal or upper 5.10.1.3 can be installed.

But with one exception: on G0016T (twilight blue) the minimal required version is 5.11.2.
