Problem [Kindlet Jailbreak Required] and canīt update
Hi. Iīve been using Kindle Paperwhite since last year and i didnīt have problems with Jailbreak/Collections Manager. But now when i try to open it (CM), it appears the message i quoted on the thread title, plus: 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.
Thing is i searched, downloaded and followed the instructions to install the Kindlet Jailbreak, but when i go to Menu>Settings Menu>Update, the "update" thing appears blurred, like "soft grey" and i canīt click it (am i being clear?), so i canīt update to install the Kindlet Jailbreak. I think the problem could be firmware update because i have recently updated it (well, it updated itself tbh), a month ago or two. What can i do? Reset Kindle and install everything again? Iīve read that the new firmware update doesnīt let you Jailbreak and stuff. I would appreciate any help. Thanks. |

See the Jailbreak thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=186645
Specifically the "EVEN MORE IMPORTANT notice regarding FW >= 5.6.0". And try NiLuje's linked hotfix for devices that got an OTA firmware update while running an outdated jailbreak. |

Now you are on a firmware version that requires KUAL and the MrPI KUAL extension to install packages. |

Thanks a lot. I succesfully updated my kindle with this https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...postcount=1597
now i wanted to use Collections Manager but it shows me a message: "Your kindle is running firmware 5.6.5, which is not supported by this version of Collections Manager." Iīll be searching for a new version of Collections Manager if there is one (i have to go now), if i donīt find one, iīll gently ask you some program that does the same thing or where can i find the new version. Thanks again. |

You need the latest version of Collections manager, with support for 5.6.5 conributed by @ADambi
Collections Manager Alternative, faster processing but no GUI: LibrarianSync Meant to work with the calibre plugin or via its companion program, Librarian |
