So you want someone else to risk his/her jailbreak yet you are not willing to do so. Not very nice.

They didn’t ask someone to test it. Rather, it was asked if someone had already done the test, intentionally or otherwise.

Jailbreak survives on any device with all firmwares including the latest version.
Just do not forget to install hotfix prior to updating.

The update was an accidence when I turned on Wifi. As I remember, I installed hotfix right after jailbreaking. Don't know why still lost JB.
Or do I need to install KUAL again? I cannot open it now

You saved me! The JB function works again after following your instruction.
Thank you so much!

But that's what the question means. It means..."Has anyone installed the new firmware on a jailbroken Kindle and has the jailbreak stayed in place? I would do this, but I do not want to risk losing the jailbreak."
