Might as well install 5.8.11 as 5.8.10 cannot be jailbroken.

knc1 -- with greatest respect, agree the message is quite clear...however despite carefully reading the entire page before proceeding it was not clear to me (probably would be to others less eager and more studious) that no downgrade was possible with 5.10.X.X firmware on the PW3-32. Carefully checked the serial number as directed in the software jailbreak post but the linked document does not distinguish between PW3 and PW3-32, serial G090G1XXXX was depicted as a simple PW3. Fully acknowledge, should have done further research before proceeding: completely on me. Please continue your outstanding work. Perhaps a small PW3-32 note on the software jailbreak checklist could save other eager but rather stupid noobs like me from my mistake. Bric'd with update to 5.7.4....

The forum software at this site limits changes to a post to the owner or a moderator (with that permission). That includes the sticky first post of the jail break index thread. This forum has not had an active moderator here in over a year. This forum has not had the support of the site operator(s) for over 2 and a half years, more like 3 years. It seems to me that the only reason Alex hasn't shut this forum down, is that he hasn't found the time. One easy place to spot that lack is the prefix dropdown list (which requires a site level moderator to change) - There is no support for 8th and 9th generation Kindles. So once something is posted here, if anything happens to the author, that information remains visible regardless of how correct or current it is. The owner of post you want changed is now in the terminal stages of Kidney cancer. I don't expect him to get off of his death bed and make any changes in the post. (when I write "deathbed" I mean that literally (although he can sometimes still get out of bed), most of his time is now spent semi-comatose from pain killers) Last edited by knc1; 01-01-2018 at 02:33 AM. |

Use caution reading future posts with very simple instructions. I do believe only certain countries have the ability to do anything with that firmware. This is due to laws in those countries. Please note: as knc1 said, everyone is pretty much no longer available due to either having an offline life or imminent death in one case. Note:knc1 is not exactly a young man himself. |

Thanks to all for the education, and deepest sympathies for those suffering.

A Kindle with the serial number prefix of G090LK or G090LLis a PW3 with 32Gbyte of user storage. (a.k.a: PW3-32) Ref: https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers There is no known version of serial number prefix G090G1 with 32Gbytes of user storage. If you have one, please provide a screenshot of the "Device Info" panel in the "Settings" section of the menu. (You take a screenshot using a finger of each hand (total two) simultaneously touching diagonally opposite corners of the screen). Last edited by knc1; 01-05-2018 at 05:54 PM. |

knc1 -- sir. Unable to get a screenshot as the device is bricked with an error two. I checked the numbers in device info before changing the firmware, and copied them down. They matched the numbers on the package, here's what it reported:
2929620018 & G090G10574320K61 It also reported 31.XXX GB of available storage in the Device Info section. Packaging indicated the device was from Brazil, but it was delivered to Texas. Have wrapped it up to send it back for repair. Respectfully. Last edited by pins; 01-05-2018 at 09:58 PM. |

I will make it a point to ask future users the details of their PW-3 - - maybe we can find another one of these misidentified devices. I am sorry that it took me a few days to realize your questions where not just a matter of understanding our nickname system. Hopefully you will get one that isn't a "re-cycled" return. One where a jail break is certain to succeed. PM me when you know what the replacement's ship date is. Last edited by knc1; 01-05-2018 at 10:19 PM. |

I also had my replacement PW3-32G (it is a standard G090 LL).
Unlike the previous unit, this one comes straight with 5.8.10 (2302090019) AFAIK, it is new from factory. So it is a no-go for Jailbreak. And an indication that future coming G090 LL is highly likely not jailbreakable. Anyway, I just put the update partial directory in it just in case if there are any news for this device.

Your LL is one of the two known 32gbyte storage models. |
