Beginner looking for advice on how to jailbreak Kindle Paperwhite
I have no experience with jailbreaking, so consider me a beginner to this whole process. I would like to be able to track how long I read (as I outlined in this post), and someone said I need to jailbreak and install koreader.
I have two kindles. 1) B024 Kindle PaperWhite WiFi - with firmware 5.6.1.1 2) G090G1 Kindle PaperWhite 3 (2015) WiFi - with firmware 5.12.4 I have found a few articles about jailbreaking from HowToGeek and LifeHacker. Both describe slightly different processes. Is there one that I should follow over the other? Or is there another method entirely that is better? Basically just wondering what the next step to take is. Thanks! |

Unfortunately you can jailbreak your PW1 (B024) only.
1) downgrade to 5.3.3 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=264432 2) jailbreak it https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=186645 3) upgrade to 5.6.1.1 back 4) install the hotfix https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=225030 5) install KUAL https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=225030 6) install KOReader (koreader-kindle- version) https://github.com/koreader/koreader/releases |
