The Winterbreak did not work for me at all, since May 20 the store is completely not working on my Kindle.
I was trying Winterbreak2, but Experimental browser was not able to open the http://winterbreak2.now.sh page.
There's however a workaround which requires:
- a computer that is in the same WiFi network with
git, npm and node installed
- Kindle device
You may follow these steps to trigger jailbreak:
- Clone the Winterbreak2 server, install it and run. Copy and paste this into terminal:
cd /tmp && git clone https://github.com/KindleModding/Winterbreak2.git
cd Winterbreak2
npm install
node api/index.js
- Find out the local IP address of the computer
-
Open Experimental browser on Kindle and type: http://<local-computer-ip>:3000. It would render a web page with a Jailbreak button.
-
Click the button, confirm .mobi file download.
Done!
I hope this helps someone stuck like me.
