But there's a good thing: jailbreak done before should be preserved after upgrade to 5.3.2. [edit] Of course you can also boot into diag mode and install jailbreak manually Which is not possible on stock Paperwhite, but perfectly possible on Touch. Last edited by dos1; 01-09-2013 at 09:21 PM. |

Or you can install diags+ssh, run diags ssh, then mount the 5.3.2 main partition and manually add the jailbreak key to it. See the simple debricking sticky thread for details. Both methods require USB Downloader mode, which is not yet available on the Paperwhite. Last edited by geekmaster; 01-09-2013 at 09:19 PM. |

*Edit*: Of course I mean new Paperwhite FW. I will probably double check the 5.1.2 jb status of the Touch (and jb it if it isn't), then upgrade to 5.3.2 and see what's new. (Ain't this *fun*?) Last edited by mallums; 01-09-2013 at 09:57 PM. |

Thank you for this! I was a little confused about this at first but the read me file was informative. Worked like a charm on my new PW!

Okay, I have visited often enough and the Jailbreak thread seems to always be current so that I took the bait.
AOK! (I do wish I could still see the underlying folders that have gone into hiding in the PW) Thanks. Next I will have to remove the 'commercials' (by paying) so that I can finally see my screen savers. Maybe I should ask, are the Special Offers really special? I generally swipe on through after entering my password without even glancing at them. |

Well, you can get access to these folders using usbnetwork - but at your own risk. Quote:

I thought I saw in the other thread that it DID work with 5.3.3 Oh well, guess I just won't use the Collections manager then....it's the only reason I wanted Jailbreak.

It does *work* on 5.3.3, it simply can't be *installed* on 5.3.3. You have to downgrade, install jailbreak, upgrade. The upgrade preserves the jailbreak.

For clarification: when you say that the Jailbreak survives the update, does that also include all the additional hacks installed with it (Kindle developer certificate and the Rescue Pack)?

The "Rescue Pack" also survives. |

Sorry, but you're wrong in both regards. cryzed was talking about the Kindlet developer certificates (even if misspelled), and these are NOT the device jailbreak. |

Sometimes even capitalization counts in English, such as: Polish and polish. My crystal ball does not have the most recent firmware update. |
