They are exactly the same file, I don't understand why you have to give different names if the file is the same!

So, I think this is the real step-by-step guide for PW4 5.13.2:

1) Reset and put offline

2) Install the factory PW4_5.10.1.3

3) Install the K5 Factory Jailbreak from the Snapshot page

Those are the details to communicate to ilovejedd to get the guide, but it is inconceivable that one person can answer to the whole world!

You're welcome to kindly ask Amazon for their private signing keys so we can all use our devices in peace instead of having to jump through silly hoops.

Barring that, assume we know what we're doing, and deal with it?

Done! Thank you ilovejedd and NiLuJe, the paths I followed remind me of some painting by Jackson Pollock!

I'm not too keen on linking to anything that isn't fool-proof and ready to use .

This... isn't . (e.g., the usbnet requirement makes it a hard pass in this context).

Hi there,

I've been reading in the forum for some time now and can't seem to find a answer for jailbreaking my device. I have a PW3 G090 running 5.13.2. I want to eventually install pbchess.

1. Can I JB my particular device?
2. Can I buy an old Kindle touch and use that instead?

Thank you!

I did but it doesn't mention PW3 and 5.13.2. All I see is this line:

"PW3: 5.9.6.1 (MD5: a5460e698a531c7770ba2b1ac31667b0)"

I'm probably missing something, do you mind cluing me in?

Doesn't matter, software jb is not possible for both on 5.13.2.

Do you recomend a particular model? (with light if possible, but not a must) I'm open to get other brand if necessary too.
