I have no idea how to update the firmware. The only things I've seen so far is someone installing and using an older KUAL version with there system date on the kindle set back or some folks updated back to 5.6.1 and the jailbreak is supposed to survive?

Can someone tell me what I should do clearly and if it's upgrade back to 5.6.1 do I need to download it manually or just take the device out of airplane mode?

You need to update the firmware to 5.6.1.1. The jailbreak will survive the update. Instructions for updating are here:

After it's updated, follow the instructions on the Kindle Modding Wiki beginning with installing the universal hotfix:

Thank you! I've upgraded, installed KUAL and MRPI then installed the hotfix via MRPI.

Now to look at all the packages!

Hi there. I've been trying to jailbreak my Kindle 4 in advance of Amazon ending support later this month, and I'm having some issues with a persistent U007 update error code when I try to do the MKK Update. Here's what I'm working with:

• K4, firmware 4.1.4 (build 3543630001)
• Jailbreak applies successfully (You Are Jailbroken document appears)
• MKK install (Update_mkk-20141129-k4-ALL_install.bin) consistently fails with U007
• DevCerts likewise fails with U007
• developer folder exists in root but contains only a KUAL subfolder, no keystore
• Airplane mode on, OTA block folder removed during attempts
• Tried immediately after fresh jailbreak reapplication

If I could get any help on how to correct the error, I would really appreciate it. Thanks for all the good info in this thread so far!

Help with KUAL: I have never done anything like this. I have tried following the step by step on the kindlemodding page, I got the jailbreak part down but I cannot get passed the "application is not signed by a registered developer" error message on the kindle. I have a very old one from 2009. HELP the layman

You need to install the MKK package which updates the signatures so the package is authorized. See the first post.
