No, it won't work. Needs to be 5.14.2 or less.
I would get a device that doesn't require jailbreak and save yourself some effort and anxiety about device updates breaking things. Paperwhite 10th generation is not that great in any case (display, performance). Last edited by tomsem; 03-19-2023 at 11:56 AM. |

Why doesn't anyone think of jailbreaking this version?
All programmers are lazy. Because it cannot be jailbroken, I regret my purchase. No Persian PDF can be opened optimally on the device |

With that kind of attitude I suggest you look elsewhere for help. I doubt you’ll get it here.

pw3 is 7th gen. pw4 is 10th gen.
I'm actually tempted to buy a pw4 32gb, but there are no refurbished or secondhand models available here. I just want a device that could fit my library and I can just put my tbr and favorites on my main device. |

Woah. i never even thought about that, till you mentioned it!
...no, for real now. lets be serious. do you think jailbreaks fall from tree's or something? jailbreak need security vulnerabilitys in the software or hardware. and finding those isn't easy. sometimes its so difficult, that even experts can't do it for years on some devices. you can't just click a button and have a jailbreak. i recommend you to inform yourself about what a jailbreak is & how it works and what it requires. then you see why there is currently no jailbreak. it's not because nobody wants to jailbreak this version, its because they CAN'T. asking why nobody is thinking about jailbreaking this version is like asking why nobody breaks into a high security place that has guards around, diamond doors and laser traps. it's just not possible without finding a exploit or security vuln that enables you to do it. |

I would never call someone lazy especially dor something I couldn't do myself. In which case I wouldn't need to wait. Insulting them won't make it go any faster. If they can as mentioned they will. They don't even get paid to do it. So it's all in there spare time.

Did you read post #3 in this thread? Where the OP stated that "All programmers are lazy" as the reason that there is no jailbreak for 5.15.1.
What is your opinion of anyone who buys a device without a known jailbreak and then whinges about the lack of a jailbreak? |
