I recently managed to buy a Kindle Touch (if you wonder why I bought such an old model - it was rather cheap and I've always wanted one).
I tried jailbreaking it, followed this guide. What I did in the end:

Spoiler:

1) Basically, now there's a huge banner telling me to log in, how can I get rid of it without logging in?

2) Neither am I sure the jailbreak has remained, the instructions are pretty unclear and contain quite a few dead ends so it'd be really nice if you could tell me that too.

3) Lastly how to enter text in diags mode?
