Jailbreak Kindle 5.6.2.1
Hi Guys,

I want to jalibreak but I know that this version can only be done with modifiying the hardware. Is there any chance to downgrade this version or something else to jailbreak it?

Dreamer.

If the device would accept a "downgrade" then it would not be reported as "unable to jailbreak".
I.E: The ability to install a different firmware, other than an Amazon customer update, is considered when reporting the situation as: "unable to jailbreak".

PS: What device? Sometimes it makes a difference.
Your info box only says: "Kindle 5" and the K5 has never had any firmware more recent than 5.3.7.3 released for it.
Look up your serial number here:
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers
to learn what our recognized nickname is for your device(s).

I can not find that name in the table:
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers

So I have no way to know if your device is one to which special exceptions applies.
Since you will not share the device nickname, just go with your first assumption, that it can not be jail broken.

A KT2 **should** be one of the special exceptions.

Open spoiler, start at step #3
You can get working links @ the jb copy in the Wiki (link in jb introduction section).

Report back on the results (or lack of them).

I am at a loss for (any more) words.
I have written the best directions that I know how to write, if you are uncertain, it would be best not to try.

Mean while it was update to 5.8.11. My previous Kindle Touch was jalbreaked by me from this site. I do not know the steps how to proceed. Probably I need to download the jailbreak version and upload to kindle

5.8.11 can not be jailbroken, your only option is to downgrade (serial) and try JB

Try these MobileRead_Wiki instructions before thinking of serial_downgrade_jailbreak, 'coz that is some serious business.
