Didn't work on my Kindle Paperwhite (10th generation) with firmware 5.17.1.0.3.
- vaylian 2y agoWhat symptoms did you experience when you tried it?
- laserlight 2y agoIt was something like “Couldn't connect to Kindle Store”.
- kelnos 2y agoDid you see the "Troubleshooting" section after the jailbreak install instructions?
- laserlight 2y agoThanks for your help. I've just tried it. It failed with “unexpected error” again --- I believe the first error I got was also this one. I'm not sure what I might be doing wrong.
- laserlight 2y agoI tried again. This time I chose “Set up later” after the factory reset, so that I don't have to waste time completing the steps after registration. I got a “Kindle Store is currently unavailable” error. This error is more likely to be the first error I got. Edit: I finally got it working by trying one more time, without factory reset.
- fastball 2y agoAccording to this section[1] of the website, the latest jailbreakable firmware for PW4 (10th gen) is 5.14.2. Not sure where the title of this HN post came from, but given the jailbreak came out on Jan 1st, I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon has already patched the exploit for hardware they're still supporting.
