On behalf of the developers here: You are very welcome.

The work you find on this site is generally of high quality and well tested by the development members.
It can be expected to work "as described".

In fact, of higher quality and better Q.A. than many things that a person might pay for, somewhere else.

I am just the site cheerleader here.
The people who do the majority of the work are turning out better work than you could hope to hire in the world of embedded programming.
And I include Amazon's in-house software contractor in that comparison.

FYI- If you have a Special Offers version (SO), the screensaver hack will not work unless you pay Amazon to remove the special offers.

I have made a video showing the process (5 minute video, please let me use your time):




I hope I made myself clear!

I just want to make custom screensavers. What am I'm missing here?

A grayed install usually means that the package you are trying to install is not for that device.

First four characters of the device's serial number please.

Was not able to confirm in your video that this device DOES NOT have the "Special Offers".
Please state if this is a device with or without the "Special Offers".

Is this device registered?

Please answer all three questions.

It hasn't the "Special Offers" (when I lock it, just shows some random wallpapers, no ads...)

The device is registered on my user account at Amazon (ambrgo@gmail.com);

Serial number: B020-1603-3**6-0**9*

The device is registered on my user account at Amazon ;

Serial number: B020-
Series number not in our list of known Kindle series:
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers

The installation packages will have to be updated to recognize B020 if they do not now.
That is most likely why you have a grayed-out install on your device.

Please provide the additional information, typical of what is shown in the series list (country of purchase, wireless configuration).

Missing series for install packages

I took the liberty of changing the foruns's wiki (https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers) to insert a new range of Kindle devices.

Amazon started new operations in Brazil this year. It is the first time that devices are being approved here. So I ask you please to consider also the devices started with B020 (first serial number letters) at compile time installation packages


Hope have contributed with something!
Thanks everyone!

Kindlet ok install without error

This update actually does provide worthwhile features that were present in the K4 but vanished in the Touch, to wit the ability to search for a highlighted term.

Can anyone please post a statement about whether or not the jailbreak works on 5.3.5? ("works" as in "installs correctly, i.e., can jailbreak a non-jailbroken device", not as in "survives the update from a previously jailbroken version" - the latter is old news).

Thanks!

The bridge appears to have operated as expected (as already known), and the actual jailbreak appeared to function completely as expected on my non-jailbroken Paperwhite. However, I am not 100% confident of the latter, as that device was jailbroken in the past, so you will want a more competent helper or a brave soul with a factory-fresh Kindle.
