@vamarci Why would you do it like that when you can simply:
1) Make sure you have the hotfix (use v2.2.1 because the lastest [v2. 2.3] and previous to lastest version have bug with scriptlets and scanning newly added books) installed BEFORE you update the firmware. 2) install new firmware ( if you used "renameotabin" to block firmware OTA download undo that change.) 3) after firmware install finished do 2 more restarts, then reinstall the hotfix again, then do 2 more restarts just in case. 4) reinstall KUAL. Reapply "renameotabin" to stop future firmware updates. In short: once you've jailbreaked in 98% of firmware updates you don't need to re-do the jailbreak steps, if you made sure to keep the hotfix up-to-date before doing firmware updates you just reinstall hotfix, KUAL and whatever else you were using and that's it. That's said "yellow band" is 99% certain a hardware issues not a software / firmware issue. |

Thanks for your response and advice! I have a couple of questions to clarify: - How can I know which version of the hotfix I have currently installed? - Where can I find the previous versions of the hotfix? on the kindlemodding.org I can't see version numbers mentioned for the hotfix - If I already have the hotfix installed, does it cause a problem to install it again? Or I can just run it like I did when I was jailbreaking? - What you have described about firmware updates also holds for the versions which you cannot jailbreak with the Winterbreak? So once it's jailbroken with Winterbreak, I can go over the version numbers that don't work with Winterbreak pre-jailbreak? (sry for the many question, wanna makes sure I don't brick the kindle) |
