Question How to remove the 5.6.5 jailbreak?
I installed jailbreak for my KPW3 running 5.6.5 using the closed method just to test it. But after that I wanted to uninstall the jailbreak, kual and other hacks, I didn't find a tutorial or a method in the jailbreak threads. I tried to install the 5.7 update hoping it will remove the jailbreak but it didn't. Is there any way I can remove it?

Of course there is no guarantee that there will be a JB in the future.

I know, I just wanted to try the jailbreak for the screensaver hack, but then I didn't find it that important

Firmware version 5.2 and more recent.
I.E: Ever since Amazon started shipping complete images.

Do note that there is little reason to remove the jailbreak -- all it does is add our dev keys, so it is basically inert unless you are actually using the jailbreak.

Bravo!
You have far more patience than I do.

I have given up on telling people that there is no reason to remove the 'jail break' keys.

I wouldn't go so far. But we do assume that people actually manage to *read* directions for a device whose basic purpose is, well, *reading* stuff...

Aaaaanyyyway. .

I would assume if you know how to hack into the software, you would know a little about codes and how to read and use them.

I might or might not could jailbreak a kindle. I can't find a super cheap one to experiment with.
