Correct -- no matter which hardware model, fw5.6.x is off our radar.
calibre allows you to read EPUBs on your Kindle -- by converting them. That is what I do - on my jailbroken Kindle. ![]() |

Hey guys, just got my kindle the other day, it's a 5. 4.5, is it possible to downgrade it to 5.4.2? I keep seeing that there are links to downgrade from 5.4.6> but would that also work on the 5.4.5?

No special procedure required to downgrade 5.4.5 - just do it.

@thebigbaos: You might need the bit of trickery explained in the relevant section of the first post to downgrade from 5.4.5, but it is doable.

Oh my god. My kindle has updated to 5.6.1 without me knowing it. I'm guessing the trick for 5.4.5 is not going to work for 5.6.1. So what should i do now? on the first post it read that the kindle is capable of surviving an update to 5.6.0 provided that my jailbreak is up to date. Well how can i survive an update i already got? Am I at the point of no return?

I am afraid you are screwed.
![]() You should have been warned not to turn on WiFi until after you were successfully jailbroken. |

Welcome to the Hacker's Challenge Club via an Amazon, involuntary, OTA update.
And I bet you thought you owned the device's behavior after you bought it. ![]() I am not going to give up on this subject until either the law on it enters the 21st century or I die of old(er) age. I.E: the squeaky wheel theory. Last edited by knc1; 04-06-2015 at 09:12 AM. |
