Note, strictly speaking, we don't know of a way to do this (at least not without serial access, and even then only on older Kindles with non-Androidized layout):

However, it's possible to install factory firmware on certain Kindle models with specific firmware versions. This can then be jailbroken using the methods from the Open Sesame thread.

Spoiler:
Reposting since the original post has gotten a bit buried.

I'm helping with PW4 JB > 5.10.1.3 but via PM only given how anti-JB the firmware updates have been of late.


PSA

I might be able to help with jailbreak for the waterproof PW4/Paperwhite 4/Paperwhite (2018)/Paperwhite (10th generation) only.

Those interested, please PM me with the following details about your device:
  1. First 12 characters of serial number (gives us the HW model, revision and manufacture date)
  2. Country
  3. Retailer/Store
  4. Color
  5. Storage
  6. with or without Special Offers
  7. Wi-Fi or Cellular
  8. FW version and stock or updated?
Thanks!


Notes:
  1. All PMs missing the information requested above will be ignored.
  2. All PMs requesting assistance with non-PW4 will be ignored.
  3. Don't expect immediate replies to your PM. I don't spend my entire time waiting for PMs from MobileRead. Even when I'm browsing the site, I'm often browsing via mobile device where sending instructions is a major pain so I typically wait to reply until I'm in front of keyboard and mouse. I usually respond within 4 days so be patient and wait a week or so. If there's no reply by then, feel free to follow up.
  4. If you're unable to send PMs, you can use the thread in the feedback forum below to request PM privileges.
    https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=319819
  5. Mac users: There's an issue with the method I have with Macs (PW4 won't reconnect to Mac via USB after one of the steps). Please make sure you have access to a Windows or Linux PC before sending me a PM.


Public instructions have now been posted for PW4 running 5.10.2-5.13.3 firmware. Sadly, 5.13.4 and higher cannot be jailbroken using this method.

FW 5.10.2-5.13.3 Software Jailbreak for PW4

Finally my PW4 is jailbroken. Many thanks to @ilovejedd and @NiJuLe for their fantastic work. KUAL is running, screensaver hack is running and of course the best reading software KOReader.

Congrats, I jailbreaked my PW4 today as well, KOReader and custom screensavers already running. It was a surprisingly easy process.

Thanks ilovejedd for the help.

I recently bought one on the Italian store too.

I did not connect it to the wifi after starting it for the first time(open the wifi configuration, go back and postpone).
The firmware it came with wasn't out-of-the-box compatible with the factory JB, so I pinged ilovejedd user who was able to provide me a guidance.

You can successfully jailbreak it.
