G090G6 was missing. I just added G090G6 as Kindle PaperWhite 3 (2015) 3G + WiFi (Canada) in the Wiki (I confirm mine is).

Even if update_xyz_6.5.*.bin is not seen on the website, if you modify the URL, most likely you'lll still be able to download it, at least it had been the case till now for older devices!

With a few exceptions.
Which are the packages I was referring to when I wrote: "disappeared".

What needs to be tested before a public release?

1) What is that?
We use these nicknames for the models here, based on the device's serial number:
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers

2) Nothing.
The delay in a public release is to give Amazon/Lab126 time to fix the firmware problem that was discovered.
This is the second time since I have been a member that we had to delay a public release.
The reason is the foundation of this JB could be used without the owner's control. I.E: A for-real security hazard.

Oh Oh! I had checked the "Kindle serial numbers" list and thought that this serial number had been successfully tested and that "support for it had been added"? (see attachment)

That table lists the models that are supported by KindleTool.

KindleTool is the application that we use to take-apart Amazon update packages and to create the Mobileread update packages.

KindleTool is OpenSource software, currently maintained by NiLuJe. (see his snapshots thread for the most recently built versions - a few days old now.)

But I can understand how the misunderstanding could happen, with my repeated mention of that table of nicknames in this JB thread.

Take note of the 'TBC' notice on that list. I'd like more than one report to confirm those (the EU 3G one looks particularly fishy, for instance).

Basically, we're missing:

EU 3G
US/I18N 3G

And maybe:
RU 3G

I didn't it on the back at all, had to go into the menu.

1. It is an 90D5 (I think US Wifi + 3G 2GB kindle).

2. How long do you guys usually wait? Is there a fixed time or is it 'until they fix it'?

Thank you for your reply!
