I kind of figured that would be the case. I will just hold out updating it. It was a brown box refurbished unit from Amazon.com.

Why would sekazis Kindle version have worked if he had purchased it from Amazon.de?

It is just an observation without known cause, most often seen with the PW3 model.

As far as speculation goes (Amazon does not advise us of their design decisions), my guess is that it is the result of legal requirements in Germany.

The laws governing the access an owner of a computer operated device are different.

Hello knc1,

I'm confused...
My Oasis FW is 5.9.2.0.1
Serial G000P8
I bought it new in Germany. No Update until now.
Is it possible to Jailbreak?

Thanks

Hello, I have a KOA2 with 5.9.2.0.1 firmware. I'm not sure if it came out of the box with one of the firmwares mentioned above (5.9.0.5.1 or 5.9.0.6). is it still possible to try to install a factory 5.9.0.6 or will it brick my KOA2?


Thank you,

I bought a KOA2 through amazon.de
Firmware: 5.9.2.01
SN: G000 SA14 #### ####

32gb WiFi only.

Can this version be jailbroken. Did I understand Knc1 correctly that devices bought through amazon.de can be jailbroken? Is there a reason for this?

Does this mean I can install the JB on my Amazon.de kindle?
Should I be aware of anything or can I go ahead and install the JB?

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kn..._Jailbreak.pdf

Source repository (only the textile format drops the toc and the section numbers):
https://github.com/knc1/KOA2_Jailbreak

The "master" of all format versions is the *.lyx (LyX document processor).
All other formats are either exports from LyX or *.tex -> pandoc conversions (yes, I could output ms word).

Notes:
  • KOA2 devices have started to ship with firmwares more recent than the two versions listed at the top of the directions. We can not jail break those (yet).
  • People still need to PM me for the password to the files.
    But please read the complete directions first.
  • The problem I had with my unregistered KOA2 was not the fault of the Kindle.
    There was a strange problem with my PC.
See, it works, even if unregistered:
Hi knc1 please pwd To both files: .bin Factory file and Jailbreak file, many thanx
