Help with JB - accidental OTA update (5.16.9)
Hey everyone, I lent out my Kindle PW4 and airplane mode was turned off. It updated to 5.16.9, so I'm pretty bummed. I went through a bunch of threads but couldn't find much solid info concerning FW >= 5.16.5 since you apparently can't search this forum using firmware version numbers.
Here's the situation:
Is there anything I can do? Obviously this was stupid, but I didn't know renameotabin existed until today. |

You have two options. With second option, you will get JB, USBnet & KOReader only.

Fixed!
You are an absolute legend. Thank you so much.
For anyone reading with the same problem, I followed this post's instructions and used this firmware from Amazon (specific to PW4): Code:
