Device: Kindle paperwhite 12th gen
Ad error

I followed the steps but when it came to disconnecting the kindle and selecting an ad, instead of any popups showing, all I see is a frustrating "There was a problem loading this page" html page. I double checked that my .assets folder has been correctly updated with the exploit files and that the details.html files have had their contents overwritten with the adbreak.html file. Anyone else run into this issue? I'm attempting to jb my 12th gen paper white on fw 5.18.4.0.1.

Clarification regarding my setup:
- The hack is always placed in the system/.assets folder; I haven’t changed its location or anything like that.
- I enabled the Special Offers from amazon.FR, and I didn’t get any error message or anything unusual.

So, to sum up:
- I enabled Special Offers.
- I left the Kindle connected to the internet for a while.
- I've restarted the kindle.
- After some time, the .assets folder got filled with a subfolder (named 3428219230702) containing the files of the only ad that appeared.
- I've extracted the hack in the .assets and executed the replacement stuff find ...
- From the home screen, I clicked on the ad banner with the "learn more" link.
Hi, when you clicked on the ad banner, did it ask you to turn on wifi? This happened to me, after turning on wifi and get connected, nothing happened. The ad folder you mentioned also be deleted.

Voilà!

The option to have ads now appear on the settings. After that, I did the same process than @lucagoc described previously on this thread.
Hi, I have questions. Did you receive multiple ads or just the generic one? And when you replace .assets folder with your modified version, did the device ask you to turn on wifi before you could click on the "Learn more" link? And what happened after you clicked on it?

It asked me to turn on Wifi and then nothing happened when I click on it.

Just want to update, I successfully jailbroke my Kindle Scribe 2022 (18.5.0.1). I follow the other guys in this thread; and when replacing .assets folder, was careful NOT TO LOCK my kindle. That avoided Kindle to check the hash integrity of the .assets folder. After unplugging, I run the code normally.

Thank you all very much. I'm so happy
