Mobileread Kindlet Kit

Huh. So, the JB is okay, the package is okay, yet it fails. Awesome.

What's the exact FW version/build number the device is running, and did you happen to break the openssl binary?

[NiLuJe]

Provided you have a recent USBNet build installed, does this work?

cd /mnt/us
kindletool convert -kws Update_mkk-20140214-k5-ALL_install.bin
openssl dgst -sha256 -verify /etc/uks/pubdevkey01.pem -signature Update_mkk-20140214-k5-ALL_install.psig Update_mkk-20140214-k5-ALL_install_unwrapped.bin

[NiLuJe]

And what about this:

cd /mnt/us
dd if=Update_mkk-20140214-k5-ALL_install.bin bs=192 count=1 2>|/dev/null | tail -c +65 >| "mkk.psig"
tail -c +$(expr 192 + 1) "Update_mkk-20140214-k5-ALL_install.bin" 2>|/dev/null | openssl dgst -sha256 -verify "/etc/uks/pubdevkey01.pem" -signature "mkk.psig"

oO I think that might just be it
Is there someone who accepts a small paypal donation for my utter stupidity?

[root@kindle root]# openssl
openssl: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hurray! That's it, you can forget my two command dump posts .

If you don't have a backup of it, you should be able to rip the original openssl binary & libs from the full amazon update corresponding to your FW version (with KindleTool, and preferably a Linux system to loop-mount the ext3 image painlessly).

What's shipped with USBNetwork won't help you, that's OpenSSL 1.0.1g, and only the library, not the binary. Although if you need a quick and dirty hot fix, I might have the corresponding binary still laying around in my build tree.

EDIT: Or, of course, you *should* be able to just downgrade/upgrade your FW version, provided you don't click the UYK link after putting an official update file, and just reboot straightaway, that'll take care of everything. That solution also implies running something earlier than FW 5.4.2.1 if you're doing a downgrading (or reinstalling the exact same FW version).

Hurray it worked, thank you very much!
How can I repay you?

[NiLuJe]

By being careful what you do on your device, in particular on the rootfs? ;D

what should i look for in the system logs.

@user743: What's your issue?

[user743]

I get a invalid certificate error when trying to open KUAL. I cant reinstall mkk. i get a error. I think it was 0007 or 007.

The problem started when i unregistered and reregistered my pw2 5.4.2.1.

I think it's still jail broken, because the front light hack is still working.

[NiLuJe]

@user743: Nope, reinstall the JB, then MKK, that should do it .

[Brynwall]

Has anybody ever had an issue where the PW2 decided that the application wasn't installed anymore? I re-installed it and it worked, but for some reason it just stopped working (nothing additional was installed when this happened).

[NiLuJe]

@Brynwall: What do you mean when you say 'application'?

[bamvor]

does anyone know that whether it apply to kwp2 5.4.3.2?
thanks.
