I went ahead and did that hotfix bin successfully. Have done the Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.16.N_install.bin via UYK (Updated successfully) Rebooted twice. Ready to do downgrade Now since I'm on 5.16.6.x I can't install KUAL Judging by your edit on post #2 on that thread: >you must downgrade your firmware to firmware 5.16.2 by using "RUNME.sh" variant of downgrader + " ;log runme" search bar command (since you don't have working KUAL to use the actual Downgrader 2.0 KUAL extension). >Before using that RUNME.sh script you must first edit it to use the correct version code value for you Kindle model I downloaded the Downgrader 2.0 zip and looked in the menu.JSON to find the build number for Kindle Scribe and it's not there. So I need a RUNME.sh to put in the kindle root and do ;log runme Which creates a version.txt that fakes being older so I can connect USB to PC and copy the 5.16.2.bin successfully? runme.txt (not sh) has VER=336034 which I understand is for PW4 Does anyone have the VER number for Kindle Scribe? Many many thanks to you all btw. You guys are killing it |

Or use "VER=390069" for Scribe.
And of course change the file extension for attachment you downloaded from txt to sh (and filename has to be "RUNME", all uppercase letters). Last edited by shamanNS; 05-29-2024 at 07:13 AM. |

(it's in chinese but you can turn on auto translate for the captions and understand what he's saying) The difference from Marek's instructions is that in step 11 he ejects the kindle from the computer but doesn't unplug the cable. Also don't forget to start fresh every time you attempt the jailbreak again (so factory reset, maybe also reinstall the 5.16.2.1.1 image (I think it helped in my case)). Hope this helps otherwise someone more knowledgeable may be able to assist you. |

Yes, "resell" script on PW5 requires that device battery is charging.

Even if they do packages still won’t work until ALL of them recompiled for armhf target, so don’t put too much of a hope there.
Only if to downgrade, I guess |
