Any Hope To Bring Back My Screensavers?

First the obligatory I messed up. Not sure how I managed to turn off Airplane mode, but none the less, I returned to my Kindle Voyage in time to see the update to 5.10.2 complete.

My device was jail broken with KUAL and Screensavers installed before the update. In reading through the forum, I see some folks had success with previous FW version 5.9.X, however I am not seeing anything with 5.10.X.

I have tried updating KUAL, however, still getting an Application Error when selecting it.

After installing the nomax hotfix, I was able to run using ;log mrpi the dummy_testupdate.log.

Thus far have been unsuccessful in my attempts at bringing back my screensavers. I have dropped the linkss-0.24 file in the /mrpackages folder, attempted the install using ;log mrpi, it appears to install (get the message on the bottom of the screen, S randomizing screensavers...pops up) yet the screen savers do not populate. Only the stock images show. In the directory, all the correct folders and images are in place.

I would greatly appreciate any insight and/or assistance that could be afforded me.

Thank you

K

Try again with current, up to date packages (i.e., current hotfix, & up-to-date KUAL w/ coplate's patch as linked in the KUAL FAQ, then current snapshots).

Quick update on my progress

Move JailBreak-1.15.N-FW-5.x-hotfix.zip to root directory, update and restart Kindle Voyage successfully

Update_KUALBooklet_v2.7_install.bin, place in the /mrpackages, use ;log mrpi, KUAL booklet install success. KUAL entry now accessable

Unpackage kindle-linkss-0.25.N-r15585.tar.xz using WinZip

Move Update_linkss_0.25.N_install_pw2_kt2_kv_pw3_koa_kt 3_koa2_pw4.bin to /mrpackages folder, use ;log mrpi to install ScreenSavers.

****!****!**!*!*!*

Thank you for the directions. Previously Jailbroken Kindle Voyage survived 5.10.2 update after following your instructions. I now have my screensavers back.
