It must be one of those with uneven screen lighting, consider returning it.

Hi all,

Is there a way to verify the JB survived update to 5.9.2.0.1?

Gracias!

Yes.
Install the update package in the "install dummy" archive attached to:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=275877

(But it did survive - Amazon/Lab126 hasn't taken the time to defeat our bridge code yet.)

Thank you kindly, sir.

So, I copy the Update_dummy_0.0.N.bin file to the root of the Kindle's USB storage, and gracefully remove storage from Windows PC. Update Kindle menu is grayed out, and when connecting back to see storage, the Update_dummy_0.0.N.bin has disappeared.

Is this kosher, or should I begin the RMA process

You need to install it with MrPI (it is a Mobileread package, not an Amazon package).

Of course, not much time has been spent on it.
Time is being spent first for the people who didn't let it update.

I don't know of anyone that has tried that combination.

You want to be the first?
Keep in mind it may boot-loop and have to be exchanged for one that works.
(They all originate in China - so I am assuming this is a sold by Amazon.India and sent to an India address).

Thanks for the prompt responses @knc1 but is already says 5.9.2, so can this be jailbroken too?

Thanks for the testing.
The only way we can learn what country/firmware versions can be jail broken is to have someone brave enough to try.
