Device: Kpw4 (G000PP) running 5.13.5 firmware
Jailbreak method:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...&postcount=455
Hotfix installed:
Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.16.N_install
Wanted to reset my kindle because getting to screensaver would takes about 5 seconds. It always closes the backlight first and then takes about 2 sec to get to the screensavers.
I wonder if some of the modifications I made caused it, so I want to give it a fresh start. But I've upgraded my software and I want to keep my jailbreak.
Some instructions given there:
Q:
1.Following the instructions I've updated the hotfix after the software update, am I safe to factory reset my kindle?
2.If not, what should I do?

On paperwhite 5.7+ versions, you will not lose the jailbreak unless you do the reset followed by a software update. ( but reset does remove all the hotfix and SS and other hacks. ) You should be able to re-install the .bin version of the hotfix ( the nomax version from my snapshot thread ), and then continue installing all the other hacks you want to have. The Key is stored in /etc which you cannot see over USB. |
