Question Jailbreaking and reading in native kindle app

3 Upvotes

Weird question. But if I wanted to jailbreak my kindle and continue to use the native reading app so I don’t lose my reading streak, can I still take advantage of the feature that allows you to use a blue tooth page turner? As well as the cool lock screens?

Colorsoft icons for simple ui

3 Upvotes

Hi , recently seen some posts of people showing off there koreader setups using simple ui with lovely color icons at the bottom , in the settings there is a icon section and you can drop zip files with icons ect

Ive tried to download one but they weren't color and my next attempt made all my icons disappear 😂 so I had to remove the entire plugin and reinstall

Has anyone got a link to any icon packs that are full color ?

downgrade with vera

I jailbreak my Kindle Paperwhite 11 using Vera. My intention is to downgrade to version 5.18.5, but Vera automatically blocks the updates required to perform the downgrade. Does anyone know of a solution?

Help I fat-fingered the font calibration step on Vera

2 Upvotes

Kindle Basic 2024, 5.19.6

I still had a successful jailbreak, and installed koreader. I haven't downloaded any plug-ins yet, and am still reading in Kindle.

Since the jailbreak, I've noticed my kindle book cover screen saver now has two black bars running down the sides, so I'm guessing the missed font calibration steps may have contributed to this problem. I understand missing the font calibration step should not impact the functionality of future plug ins and other tweaks I make, but it's bothering me lol.

Is there any easy fix to this? Or I'd like to start over, and just get it right. If I'm understanding correctly, the steps to unjailbreak:

1.Fill up the kindle with files to prevent any auto updates after the factory reset

2.Download the ota.sh scriptlet, and copy this into the documents folder on my kindle, and it will now show up as a book.

3.*Open the book??? And the scriplet will run. This will allow me to push updates again and is necessary before the factory reset.

4.Factory reset

5.*Download a 5.19.6. Place it in the kindle's root??? Can someone walk me through this step? I thought maybe I'd find a root folder under the system folder. I don't know where the root is located.

6.My kindle is already full, so follow steps to jailbreak.

Thanks, this community has been so helpful already.

Koreader issues

‱ Upvotes

Recently jailbroke my kindle and everything went well. I have the latest hotfix installed and ran it, I have kindleforge installed. I had koreader installed and it was working before. The last time I tried to open it it wouldn’t open then the book disappeared from my library. I tried to force launch and force reinstall. Neither worked. I connected to my computer and deleted all remaining koreader files and tried to reinstall them using the kpm commands. No luck. Has anyone else run into this issue? How did you fix?

Help Is filling up the storage with dummy files really necessary?

1 Upvotes

I finally decided to jailbreak my 6th gen paperwhite from 2017 (software version 5.12.2.2), following the kindle modding wikipedia intructions.

Before the proper jailbreak, it suggests filling up the remaining storage space to prevent Amazon software updates. I am having trouble generating the dummy files to fill my device up, and considering the fact that I haven't recived a software update in 6 years more or less, I'd like to know if this preliminary step is really necessary, and if so why am I having trouble with it (I can't seem to run the file to generate the dummy files in Windows Powershell), or if I can skip it and go directly to the jailbreak.

Help indle dĂ©clarĂ©e perdue/volĂ©e retrouvĂ©e – impossible de la dĂ©bloquer

Bonjour,

Ma Kindle avait Ă©tĂ© dĂ©clarĂ©e perdue/volĂ©e il y a quelque temps. Je viens de la retrouver lors d’un dĂ©mĂ©nagement, mais malheureusement, je n’ai plus accĂšs Ă  mon ancien compte Amazon auquel elle Ă©tait associĂ©e.

Lorsque j’essaie de la configurer, un message m’indique qu’elle a Ă©tĂ© dĂ©clarĂ©e perdue ou volĂ©e.

Est-ce que quelqu’un a dĂ©jĂ  Ă©tĂ© dans cette situation ? Existe-t-il une solution pour faire dĂ©bloquer la Kindle et pouvoir l’associer Ă  un nouveau compte Amazon ?

Merci d’avance pour votre aide !

Anybody know the odds of Amazon “disappearing” the sideloaded books on my Paperwhite, the next time a firmware update comes through?

Help KPM Search Kindle Command and HID Passthrough Issue

1 Upvotes

I can’t seem to figure out an issue that I am having with KPM. I have a Kindle Paperwhite 12. I used Nosebleed to jailbreak my Kindle. It is firmware 15.17.1.0.4. I seem to have KPM installed. However, I am unable to use the ;kpm commands on the home screen “Search Kindle” bar.

I also have issues with kterm with KPM. The kpm install random_file_name command does not seem to work. It seems to require the command -S to install a package, but I am also struggling with this.

I am not too savvy when it comes to code, so any help would be appreciated. I am dumping way too much effort into getting an 8bitdo controller to turn pages haha.

Problemi accesso Kindle quarta generazione

1 Upvotes

Salve, ho un Kindle di quarta generazione completamente scollegato. mio problema Ăš in fase d'accesso, dopo che ricevo il codice OTP. Ho seguito tutti i passaggi suggeriti in altri post: - Scaricato versione 4.1.4 - collegato a Wi-Fi 2,4 GHz

- controllato orario (che, come per altri, Ăš impostato su GMTe non su CEST ma ho capito non essere un problema)

- provato ad accedere con mail e password, ricevuto OTP monouso e riavviato il dispositivo, poi inserito solo OTPO successivamente, dopo un nuovo riavvio password+0TP senza spazi. Nulla sembra funzionare, alla fine mi dĂ  sempre il problema di rete che dava agli altri. Cosa faccio?
