Amazon updated the firmware of KPW2 and kindle 7th gen. to 5.6.1.0.2. It should be a bug fix.

It is fortunately the jailbroken hotfix worked on this new firmware. I've jailbroken KPW2 on 5.6.1 and updated 5.6.1.0.2. It is still jailbroken. So you can upgrade to the the latest firmware with a jailbroken kindle.

Also reminded that if you installed KPVBooklet for launching KOReader, you need uninstall KPVBooklet then reinstall it again to make it effective.

YES, it worked. Thanks to your hotfix I was able to recover my JB and afterword I was able to install KUAL, mrinstall and all the hacks I needed.

You are a true man NiLuJe,

@mfirewire: Yep, my timing was to our advantage there, the hotfix *should* also run on 5.6.0.2, for people that got that one on top of 5.6.1 and are still running an outdated JailBreak .

Thank you very much!!! I thought that the only way to salvage my PW2 was to disassemble it completely.

Thank you! ))

If you happened to be running a live, but outdated version of the JailBreak when you got the 5.6.x update, this package should get you back on track.

Download the attached zip file, and unpack it.
Copy the Update_jailbreak_1.14.N_install.bin file to the root directory of your Kindle.

Now, eject & unplug your Kindle, and go to [HOME] -> [MENU] > Settings -> [MENU] > Update Your Kindle. If the update is successful, you're golden. If it fails, it probably means you weren't properly jailbroken before the update, in which case, you're still screwed.
Thank you so, so much! After doing this, should we install the latest jailbreak and USBnet packages from the first post? If so, bridge or regular?

This is the latest jailbreak.

After any Amazon update, you must reinstall all hacks. I assume the reason you need to use this is because you got the 5.6.1 update ... in which case you will need to reinstall all hacks.

Yes, that's exactly the reason. Does "all hacks" include USBNetwork?

Yes, it is a hack and falls under the category of "all".

Hello guys,

I'd like to know if it's possible to JB PW running 5.6.0.2 (latest update from A)?
No previous JB are present to the device, a new device, this.

As far as, I understand it's not possible, now.

Thanks,

There is currently no "closed Kindle" jailbreak for that situation.
You can still jailbreak it if you open it up and use the serial port.

So I have firmware 5.4.3.2 on PW2. It's jaibroken with JB ver. <1.10 (I don't remember). And now I want update to 5.6.1. I should first reinstall JB 1.14 and then update? Or first use 1.14-fix?
