Hello,
I have a jailbroken Kindle Oasis 10th generation (KO3) on firmware 5.14.2 I wanted to trying turning pages with a bluetooth device. On my kindle, in the settings it just says “Wireless” though I have seen from searching that others have Wireless & Bluetooth. In Accessibility-> VoiceView Screen Reader there is “Bluetooth Devices” but it is greyed out. I did notice that when choosing “Setup your kindle” with the phone app, the bluetooth logo appears at the top. I normally use koreader for reading books. I am wondering if I should upgrade the firmware to 5.16.2.1.1 and use LanguageBreak jailbreak? Any help or guidance here would be appreciated. Cheers!

Bluetooth on/off switch is among settings that are hidden until you register your Kindle onto Amazon account.

Kindle (E-Ink-based) devices only support BT devices with an A2DP profile as an audio sink for audio streaming, nothing else.
Without kernel modification, your Kindle can't see/pair/listen to remote control, keyboard, etc. Last edited by tekkasit; 05-24-2024 at 10:27 AM. |

It would be great if Amazon baked something like that into the Kindle world. I have a friend with health issues that loves this inelegant solution (but it works) -https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08T8CZYF3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
