Hi knc1,
I have a Oasis G000 P812... can I join the jailbreak club, please? (firmware was updated by my girlfriend as a mistake now I'm on 5.9.2.0.1)

Unfortunately there is no way currently to jailbreak the new Oasis once it has updated to 5.9.2 or higher.

Downgrade using factory firmware is not a option?

If 5.9.2 would allow a factory-use-only firmware to be installed, then it could be jail broken.

And since nobody has posted finding the serial port on a KOA2, you are S.O.L.

Sorry, I couldn't find your name on my list.
I don't send that information to people who can not use it because their device has been updated.
The KOA2 is just too expensive to be experimenting with and it does not have a serial port for people to rescue themselves.

30 days to return free of charge for any reason.... so, if it's to be some experimenting, it need to be done now....

putting the factory firmware in kindle and rebooting with the usb cable still connected starts the update process, but, unfortunately, stops with ERROR 15 message....

if you reset the device using the reset menu, and, press the down button and power at same time, the power led blinks, but does not power on....

I've forgot to tell, i'm on brazil, kindle is from brazillian amazon store

Hello knc1!

Are you sure that it doesn't have serial port? Or it's because noone opened it to check that?
The same with the first generation of KOA. Someone take apart it, but noone found the serial port on it.
That means they doesn't have serial port?!

All it means, for both devices, is that no one has reported finding its connections.
In other posts I have been more explicit.
I must have been tired when I wrote that one.

The SoC itself has 7 of them IIRC and Linux, like all *nix systems, MUST have an operator's console to boot and run.
That does not mean it needs anything wired to it, nor even the pins on the SoC brought out where they can be found.

Note:
KOA == i.MX6 - single core
KOA2 == i.MX7 - dual core
(It is "Android Ready" which may or may not mean Amazon/Lab126 will stop building their own custom Linux system and start using Google's).
