I just did and I lost jailbreak and the kindlet jailbreak and the jbpatch. I reinstalled jailbreak successfully and the kindlet jailbreak but jbpatch is not working (probably because the existing versions are not yet for 5.3.4) Coolreader is working again, however.
Barb PS: Sorry, I cannot speak to the screensaver hack survivability since I do not use that one. Last edited by booknut; 03-14-2013 at 02:34 PM. |

Noticed no changes at all, if there are any changes then they must be somewhere deep down...

I wish they'd say more than "general improvements for your Kindle Paperwhite"

While I didn't need to reinstall the jailbreak- I reinstalled the rescue pack and dev certs- I did have to reinstall the following:
JBPatch doesn't currently work even after a reinstall. KUAL seems to be working fine however. Last edited by JimmyR; 03-14-2013 at 05:36 PM. |

FWIW there's a couple of people on the Amazon UK forum who have said that the only difference they've noticed so far is that their PW seems slower

I'm not doing any more updates on my paperwhite or touch. I won't be turning on wifi, either, I prefer to load books via calibre/usb. I don't want my mods messed up!
