Jailbreaking Your Kindle

Jailbreaking a Kindle:

• Allows devs to create system modifications or extensions to extend the functionality of the device further.
• Also allows for the development of custom homebrew to run on the Kindle
• Why not?

What can I do?

As a user, this gives you access to:

• Custom screensavers
• Custom fonts on firmwares that do not support it
• Homebrew such as apps, games and more
• Downgrading your firmware

Please be aware of the risks of jailbreaking before you jailbreak your Kindle including, but not limited to: - Potentially voiding the Kindle's waranty - Bricking (permanently breaking) the device - Security Risks

Always jailbreak at your own risk. If you don’t know what you are doing or are unsure, don’t do it.
