Hey guys!
I`ve already jailbroken my Kindle touch with FW 5.1.2 and I`ve tried to toogle ads with http://ebookjuggler.com/kindle/remov...-kindle-touch/
and it doesn`t work... Maybe it`s for previous FW..
My question: is it possible to add some extensions to Launcher (which I also installed) in 5.1.2 ???
If yes, where to download them (toogle ads, own screensaver)
Thanks

Use JBPatch - works for me with 5.1.2.

There is a thread called "Gui Launcher collection" right on the first page of this forum...

For the screensaver, check out the Wiki: https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kind...#Screen_Savers

THX!
Could you also post me a link to download JBPatch?

I could just give you that link here, but you need to practice how to find simple stuff like that yourself, so here are some methods of finding it yourself:

The JBPatch download link was posted to the first post of the JBPatch thread. Look in the Master Index sticky thread, then the Tools index wiki. Or use the MobileRead search functions. Or just look on the first page of recent topics (JBPatch has a lot of recent activity).

alright I have it! and now: is it possible to change default scrwensavers? yifan's hack dosent work with 5.1.2 fw

BillyBigStuff · 08-08-2012, 11:22 AM

You really could do with searching...

You have to use the simple screensavers hack as the more advanced one was killed with 5.1 I believe. The simple one works fine for me, I'm using it at the moment.

All of the things mentioned (or at least most) can be found on the hacking wiki page here.

Updated to v1.3.N with a few tweaks to make it more robust (especially if someone were to get their wires crossed and tried to install this through diags). If it happened to break everything, please do shout at me

.

twobob · 09-23-2012, 09:31 AM

previous version of everything worked perfectly on 5.1.2 for me (success report and all that)

NiLuJe · 09-23-2012, 01:35 PM

@twobob: Yeah, it's the update I'm worried about ;D. Although it shouldn't change a thing if one follows the 'usual' instructions, that was more to make it more robust in case someone were to mix the K4/K5 instructions together

.

twobob · 09-23-2012, 01:37 PM

drop one file on drive.
updatey thing

OR

Use the data.tar.gz payload got it.

twobob · 09-27-2012, 07:16 PM

Okay so I mangled the jailbreaks together.

Now I can't run the uninstaller

any ideas : D

twobob · 09-27-2012, 11:43 PM

Update: If in doubt run it 3 times. Worked fine. I also disabled all my JBPatch patches. Probably voodoo but that's what I did.

cheers.

NiLuJe · 10-05-2012, 12:33 AM

Well, apparently this works on FW 5.2.0, too (meaning the PaperWhite).

So, err, thanks, Amazon!
