Blocking updates - most recent firmware version?
Can anyone confirm what the latest firmware version is that OTA updates can be blocked using any method other than turning off WiFi?? I’m running 5.11.2 using the Prevent OTA Updates option in KUAL and it works fine - no updates offered. Anyone running a more recent version and can confirm whether this works or not?

KUAL option most likely doesn't work on 5.12 and above. Also see

Ah OK thanks for that. So I’m probably running the last version we know it works on.

There wasn’t a 5.11.3 was there? In fact, is there a page somewhere showing all firmware versions for each Kindle, with download links? Rings a bell but can’t find it anywhere.
