Can I have the first 6 digits please?
Country it was purchased and used in? Does it have special offers? At which step did you get error 007? |

You are not supposed to use the bin file, the instructions say to:

 Also, feel free to post your questions directly to the jailbreak thread, in order to preserve context. EDIT: knc1, a U007 error specifically refers to "signature verification failed", i.e. jailbreak not installed. U006 is a "general error", usually checksum failure indicating a corrupted file.

OK - thank you very much.
With kindle-5.4-jailbreak.zip i did the jailbreak and afterwards i was able to install kindle-jailbreak-1.14.N.zip. Is is not possible to update to an actual official kindle-version? Can i see somewhere if the kindle is jailbroken? |
