[HELP] is there a kindletool for PW?
Is there a kindletool for PW?
I'm trying to inspect the 5.3 update but i don't have a PW.
and the kindletool binary i have reports "unknown bundle" when trying to extract the update bin.
Thanks in advance.

Yep.

I'm fairly sure the latest release handles this update type, if not, the git tree does.

(I guess it really *was* useful to add support for this update type after all ;D).

well, i changed the lines in "get_bundle_version" in the source to read something like:
if(!strncmp(magic_number, "FB03", 4) ||
!strncmp(magic_number, "FB02", 4) || !strncmp(magic_number, "FB01", 4))
return RecoveryUpdate;
and it seems to work....

That's incidental, because the header size happens to be still fixed, and still of the same length than the older recovery update format.

But this is (properly, at least on the convert/extract side of things) supported since v1.5.3 anyway, you don't have to patch anything...
