KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2 not shown on my KPW1
Hi Guys,
I need some help here. My firmware version was 5.3.*, and I upgraded to 5.6.1 and found that to jb I need to downgrade to 5.4.4 and then upgrade to 5.6.1. But sadly after JB (the words showed up after successful JB), I copied the KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2 to documents folder and eject the usb, but the launcher didn't show up at all. I tried for several versions of FW, but nothing worked. Please give me some hints on what should I do next. Thanks a million! |

Reading the documentation always helps.
That FW version dropped support for Kindlets, you'll have to move to the Booklet variant. |

But I'm still confused here. "In addition, you may need to install MKK: if your device runs on FW 5.x, and you're using the K5 JB >= 1.11.N (or the associated "hotfix"), you don't need to do anything, MKK is bundled with your JB. If you're using an older device, you will need to install MKK yourself" I thought the MKK was installed with the JB, since I installed the latest version JB. Or do I need ot manually install MKK? Thanks! |

MKK hasn't been a thing for a good long while (it's now handled by the hotfix). And since the middle K stands for Kindlet, it's also entirely irrelevant nowadays .
TL;DR: You just need to switch to KUAL's Booklet variant. |

Then I tried the following things: Upgrade FW to 5.4.4.2 from 5.3.5. JB with the 7 files(5.x JB). I copied the MR Installer to root folder of KPW put "Update_KUALBooklet_v2.7.24_install.bin" file in mrpackages folder. Then I typed in the search bar with ";log mrpi", but nothing happened. I'm still not sure about "MKK hasn't been a thing for a good long while (it's now handled by the hotfix).". So, I put the "Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.16.N_install.bin" to the kindle, after unpluging the usb, there was no update menu in the system and the bin file disappeared. That means it's not a correct way either. |

Ah, Dukoan means you go goes straight to the "no idea which state the system's in" step, so, err, good luck, I guess?

Again, Duokan means I have no idea.
But on a sane system, it might very well put the nail in the coffin of your JB if it wasn't in tip top shape to begun with. |

Thanks, NiLuJe. Finally I got it working by factory reset.
