Yes. Install the .bins, ignore the .gpg files - they are just digital signatures.

In the Kual thread, right above the download files is a spoiler that explains gpg (has to do with authentification signatures of the files, if you're interested...). I personally just use the straight .bin files.
As ixtab said, upgrade to 5.3.3 before you install these as they will not survive the upgrade if you do them first. ixtab types faster than I do....... Last edited by GoSharks; 03-10-2013 at 12:25 PM. |

does the 3G use the same bin file for the downgrade? I'm wondering if the 3G difference is the hardware or uses a modified software.

Just a hint concerning the "rescue pack": There's a fixed version. Update HIGHLY recommended.

I made the downgrade to 5.3.1 version, then applyed the jailbreak, then updated again to 5.3.3. After that I just installed the "Kindlet Developer Certificates" and the "Rescue Pack" (as it shown in the first topic.). Nice, everything worked... but when I tried to install the CoolReader (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...25#post1948325) just didn't work. He show me this message: "Kindlet Jailbreak Required This application requires the Kindlet Jailbreak to be installed. This is an additional jailbreak that must be installed on top of the Device Jailbreak, in order to allow Kindlets to get the required permissions. Please install the Kindlet Jailbreak before using this application." What is this? And how I install? Did I made some cr*p anywhere? What is the Hacks you guys, consider cool to install? Thanks a lot. |

@henriquelbsouza: KUAL is pretty neat to have as extensions and helpers can be installed by copying unto usb-storage w/o requiring a restart. Then as hacks go, give JBPatch a try. Other hacks can wait until you see the need to customize further.

Kindle Paperwhite 5.3.4 Jailbreak
Thank you, I got a Kindle Paperwhite, and it's jailbroken by your method. Now Amazon released 5.3.4 for KPW, and it looks like that your method still working for 5.3.4.

My Kindle Paperwhite is running firmware version 5.3.3, is it possible to jailbreak?
Also, will upgrading the firmware on a jailbroken Kindle remove the jailbreak? |
