Page numbers on kindle keyboard
Does anyone know if there is a hack available to show the page numbers or locations (you can see them when you press the Menu button) above the progress bar? stock firmware, on a jailbroken kindle keyboard. Firmware version 3.4.3

You can't do what you want. So to get what you want, you need to replace your Reader.

Sounds about right, does anyone (who is not JSWolf) know?

FWIW this was the case on previous firmware versions, not sure why Amazon changed it.

Since the OP has a Kindle Keyboard (3rd gen) with firmware 3.4.3, what a Paperwhite with the latest firmware can do is not helpful.

I did answer. The answer is the OP cannot do what he wants with a Kindle Keyboard.

More importantly, he didn’t answer what i now consider the paramount question of this thread. That being, how to get [only] legitimate answers from JSWolf.

In that case, it might be possible to downgrade to a prior firmware version, which might require a jailbreak first.

Do any of the .sdr directories on your KK have an .apnx file inside?
