A huge thank you to katadelos, yparitcher, SKK, jp12323 for helping me develop and debug this exploit!
Thanks to NiLuJe for customizing his jailbreak to work with it and everyone from the KindleDrip thread who helped me test it! ![]() KindleBreak is based on KindleDrip, discovered by Yogev Bar-On, who did an amazing job finding and documenting this vulnerability. They were not involved in the making of KindleBreak in any way. Start here! First of all, if you're here from the Open Sesame! thread, then welcome, keep reading! If you're not, you should go there and read it from the beginning until it directs you to come back here. If you have any questions, consult the FAQ! Even though this method has been extensively tested by every supported device / firmware version, you may encounter technical issues (none that may harm you device in any way), in that case consult the Technical FAQ! Check if your device is supported using the steps below:
If your firmware is on the list, let's begin the Jailbreaking process: Even though this method uses your browser, you DO NOT NEED WIFI enabled for it. Turning airplane mode off / wifi on will just risk your device updating.
After your device has rebooted, you're done with this thread. The jailbreak will delete all of its own files to clean up after itself. The only thing that will be left behind is the debug log, kindlebreak_log.txt. Please keep that file until you managed to install the Jailbreak hotfix, for debugging purposes! Now, head back to the Open Seasame! thread and continue the jailbreaking process starting from the "Making sure your JB survives updates." section! If you've ran into any technical issues, please consult the Technical FAQ! FAQ Spoiler:

Can't install JB hotfix
Thanks a lot for the jailbreak!
I have a PW3, firmware 5.12.3. Jailbreak works perfectly: Code:
Loaded logging functions Didn't find existing developer key Created developer key Updated permissions for developer key Finished installing jailbreak, restarting.. |

Edit: Never mind, seems like your account is too new and I can't PM you. Can you try running the exploit again to see if the log says "Removed existing developer key" instead of "Didn't find existing developer key"? If that ends up being the case, that means that you're doing something wrong when you're trying to install the JB Hotfix. Don't worry about running it again, even if u ran it a 100 times nothing bad would happen, it's made with that in mind. Please let me know how it went! (Hopefully the logging can be updated to check if the file gets created correctly soon, so others won't have to run it twice.) Edit: This issue has been resolved, the jailbreak failed for devices >= 5.12.x, but now it works. Last edited by tryol; 03-24-2021 at 03:16 PM. Reason: The issue has been resolved |

But I still have the same issue with the jb hotfix I am putting "Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.16.N_install.bin" in the usb root directory and then use "Update your Kindle". |

![]() Seems like the exploit is working correctly but there is something wrong with the jb.sh file. Either that or you're not installing the Hotfix correctly.

Had the same issue (007 Error) rerunning the JB Hotfix (tried it 3 times). Not sure if I'm doing something incorrectly while installing the JB Hotfix. Basically just put the "Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.16.N_install.bin" in the root directory of the kindle, unplug microusb from the device, go to settings -> Device Options -> Advanced Options -> Update Your Kindle and let it do it's thing which is when the 007 error occurs.

For the people waiting for the positive reviews flood in before they use the jailbreak:
I wouldn't have posted this thread if I wasn't absolutely sure that the jailbreak would work on every single device and firmware combination I've listed in the op. Considering that the finalized version of the jailbreak was tested and confirmed to be working on multiple devices just yesterday, with no failed tests, this is really weird behaviour. I'll keep you updated here whenever something changes. Here is a picture of my jailbroken Oasis 3 just to further stress that this method has been confirmed to be working on every device I've listed: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...1&postcount=48 Edit: This issue has been resolved, the jailbreak failed for devices >= 5.12.x, but now it works.

Oh, wait, I know what's wrong.
There's a reason the emergency script ran more things >_<". (I shouldn't be doing these things at 4AM and no sleep, sorry ^^). |

I'll update this post once the 007 error gets fixed.
Until then please don't post reports of this issue! NiLuJe is probably working on it right now. Edit: I've been told that this issue only affects devices with firmwares >=5.12.x. A fix is on its way.

Okay, this *should* be fixed now, sorry about that :/. (Simply re-download the ZIP).
It would only have been an issue for people on FW >= 5.12.x, so if you have a previous version of the kindlebreak zip and you're running an older FW, you're fine ![]() |
