The test conditions did not translate properly. Your solution requires that the device already be jail broken. The conditions tested was if the current jail break would work, as written, when the device was already running 5.8.10. I.E: Without having already been jail broken. |

What does work properly is, go to this page: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/custo...deId=201307450 and follow the directions. Your JB will survive, everything else will have to be re-installed. |

Hi all, I've been doing more research today, and I think I have some to a semi-useful conclusion.
We now believe that 5.8.9.0 direct from the factory is also capable of downgrading to the factory images that we have a copy of. I am willing to stat that I believe the following: Quote:
And the protections for this do not get applied until after a non first-boot software is installed. If we were to get ahold of this 5.8.9.0 version, I would believe that it also would have file type of FB02. So, I think this is good news for anyone buying new hardware of these versions that we do have factory images for, that it would not necessarily be limited to just the 5.8.9.0, but anything that may ship from the factory. Again, this is just a guess, but I am pretty confident in it. At least unless amazon changes production methods to install an initial version, and then upgrade to another version. |

I did test this Morning by using the "Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.14.PKOA_GR_install. bin" renamed to "Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.14.N_install.bin" (According to knc1 information). From the Software Update screen, it show "Update Successful, Your Kindle is Restarting.....". After that, I placed “KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2” to documents folder & placed “Update_KUALBooklet_v2.6.40_install.bin” to mrpackages folder. During run Kindle Launcher, it shows Error again. (See attached pic). This is the situation now |

Has anybody tried to apply the Branch Delay's factory firmware jail break to PW2 with factory_PW2_5.4.3.2_initial firmware?

It did work for KV 5.8.9
Quote:
I have read about it on MR Forum (post of coplate) this theoretically could work as this was the firmware it was shipped with. So I was able to downgrade to factory_KV_5.5.0_initial, following all the steps and finally I have a working JB, KUAL, KOReader, on a 5.8.10 firmware. big thanks to knc1 Last edited by macsek; 07-24-2017 at 06:16 PM. |

Like you saw on my post, I have a very strong conclusion that any version you get direct from the store will be able to be downgraded, as long as you do not let it do an update on wifi first. ( for now, until they change something ) But it would be good to get your build number for future readers if you still have it. |

It would save us both a lot of time. I went back to: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...postcount=2246 64 posts and several pages back - - To discover you are working with a KOA not a PW3. So to correct my last post: See where you: Quote:
It is not suppose to work on either 8th. generation device, Amazon dropped support for 'active documents'. You MUST use the booklet form of KUAL. You MUST use MrPI to install the booklet form of KUAL. You MUST use the search bar command: ;log mrpi The semi-colon is part of the command to run MrPI. The only reason for the error you are seeing now is because you are trying to use the build of KUAL which is not suppose to work on a KOA. The only thing it will do on either a KT3 or a KOA is produce the error message you posted. What you are seeing and reporting is the reason we made a booklet form of KUAL.
