Wonderful, thank you!

In case anyone else comes along and finds this, to install the devcerts on (at least) a K5/Touch, I followed the directions in this post:

Replaced my prior KUAL-KDK-1.0.azw2 with the new one.

Ran the Kindle update, and everything works properly.

Has anyone managed to fix this on a KT5?

I tried installing the DevCerts update and replacing the KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2, but I still get the error message, including when trying to access JBPatch.

I then reinstalled the jailbreak, installed the DevCerts update, and replaced the KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2, and the error still appears.

Finally, I performed a factory reset, installed the jailbreak, installed the new devcerts, the Mobileread Kindlet Kit, MRPI, and the new Kual file, and I still get the error.

Don't use azw2 file, install KUAL bin installer using MRPI.

Isn't MRPI a KUAL extension? How can I use MRPI to install KUAL if I need KUAL to run MRPI?

[shamanNS]

@maxwell1755 You use it / run in / start it (MRPI) directly via ;log mrpi search-bar command that was injected / defined when you installed the hotfix.

That's the alternative way of runing MRPI script and that's what's being used to install KUAL itself. It does look somewhat confusing and counter-intuitive

TLDR if you are on PW2 5.12.2.2, install KUAL by command

;log mrpi

in search bar.

if you are on PW2 5.12.2.2 like me, after Jailbreaking, the KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2 is still not working and giving this error "This device is not authorized as a test Kindle by the developer of this item".

Turns out that I can install .bin by the MRPI although the "install update" is greyed out on 5.12.2.2.

put Update_KUALBooklet_v2.7.37_install.bin under the /mrpackages folder, and then run

;log mrpi

in search bar.

It resolved the issue for me.

Hi, I'm trying to write a custom extension to use my old PW3 as a dashboard, but I'm having some trouble with stopping the framework.

I've got some very minimal code at the moment:

#!/bin/sh

DIR="$(dirname "$0")"
LOG="$DIR/log.txt"

echo "Stopping lab126_gui" >> "$LOG"
initctl stop lab126_gui >> "$LOG"
echo "Stopped lab126_gui" >> "$LOG"

Calling this from within SSH works, but when I start it via KUAL, "Stopping lab126_gui" is the last thing that is logged.

Note that I am able to launch Koreader and kterm.
I also don't know if it's related, but I also keep getting log files in my library about, "Mismatches between cc.db entries and storage"

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
