Care to share what you learned with us?
That would save the next person from having to duplicate the work you have already done.

I'm sorry. I type a wrong word. It's 'it do not work' rather than 'it do now work'...
I found the new file by
find / -name 'index.html'

Wasn't the native bridge disabled in the stock browser? So I'm not sure this *should* work...


Anyway, if you want the browser to display in landscape mode, I suggest using baf's hacked browser, see: http://www.fabiszewski.net/kindle-browser/
It is much more capable, in so many ways, than the stock browser.

Also, be careful while having your PW-1 connected to the Internet that it does not pickup (and use) the OTA update to 5.6.1.1 firmware.

Just in case, install the newest jailbreak (built earlier today) on your PW-1. Do it **NOW**

Filter the posts by the prefix "tools", you will find NiLuJe's snapshots thread near the top of the list. That is where you will find the most recent everything.
