It simply deletes the file "/etc/uks/pubdevkey01.pem". |

One small question... is it safe to delete the "/var/local/java/keystore/developer.keystore" too? The jailbreak copies it to the place, but I can't find if it's the original part of FW (the 5.0.0 images are pre-jailbroken).

It should be safe to delete the "combined developer keystore" file. It contains custom keys for "unauthorized" kindlets. It is always wise to first make a backup copy of any files before you delete them, and keep a record so you can undo your changes.

Thanks, I've changed it accordingly. It can't make a backup copy of files erased because the unjailbreak should revert the mess made by the jailbreak (revert to the original state).

"Proper" hacks that have an "uninstall" function generally make their own backup copy of anything that they change or delete. Unfortunately, the K4 and K5 make it easier to make hacks, and some of them make irreversible changes, which may require "debricking" (or manually replacing hacked files) to undo them.

I got good results with my ver. 5.1 kindle from the jailbreak-kt.tk site, thank you. My device had not been previously jailbroken, & I paid to have it be advertising free beforehand...
Now I need to cook up some software |

@mmatej: FWIW, the packaged jailbreak uninstaller *doesn't* remove the developer keystore, because it *may* have been modified by the user/OS during the time the device was jailbroken.
On the other hand, it's in /var/local, so it would get squished by a factory reset anyway, . |
