      Any good guide you can recommend? Thought of going the very same thing, but had not much time and energy recently.

          The guide is one of the best I’ve seen for this type of project. It does this easy presentation way of showing the instructions to do the jailbreak. I ran it on one of my older candles a few weeks ago just to try it out and didn’t have any issues.

          It’s too bad I can’t jailbreak my current Kindle. I’ve gotten used to having the warmer backlight in the slightly larger screen.

            The guide is one of the best I’ve seen for this type of project.

            I would have to award that to GrapheneOS. Being a web-based installer, GrapheneOS is able to add buttons that directly perform the major actions right in the guide itself. At each step, instead of having a link or something and saying “go here and do this”, it simply provides you with a button that actually performs that step’s action right then and there. It is incredibly straightforward. The first few steps do involve some prerequisite manual effort to get your phone ready and web browser configured. But once those two pieces are able to communicate with each other, the rest of the process just involves pressing the buttons in the order it tells you.
