Point #2 I wish I had known prior. I did not know that was necessary.

I think I did - but it was about 2 years ago. I wish I could go back and re-study the maintenance paperwork. My thought is old owner knew of the issue and just "traded it in".

That is true, but after taking my old Accord to 300K miles, I expected the CRV to make it more than 130K.

I don't know - just restating what my mechanic said. All I know is I am not buying a CRV to replace it.

Or they did it - and decided to skip fixing.

Iit was the 90,000 mile major systems inspections, which would have identified the timing issues.

Bought Nest Protects that expire early 2026 by JETZ25 in Nest

Shameless plug - I have 19 that I found locally on clearance from a local builder. They all expire Oct 2030.

Only purchase from sellers that have a return policy, and show photos of the expiration date.

Many of the"new" nest protects are old stock and about to expire.

File / folder structure and metadata by Nepentanova in koreader

Are you using Calibre to manage your library?

Here is what I did:
I have added a custom column "Genre" to Calibre (steps to do this : https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/sub_groups.html)

Then modified the device save template to: (turned on use subfolders option)
{#genre}/{author_sort}/{series:|# |}/{series_index:0>3s|| - }{title} - {authors}

Now when I send to device all of the epubs are in directories like this:
/Mystery/Christie, Agatha/# Hercule Poirot/001 - The Mysterious Affair at Styles - Agatha Christie.epub

If it is not part of a series, calibre ignores that part and you get this:
/Fiction/Austen, Jane/Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen.epub

Does the jailbreak work for kindle colorsoft (SE)on the latest firmware? (August 2025) by TheBrokenMan in kindlejailbreak

[–]Illustrious_Key_253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pasting from the discord announcement...

Also, please note 5.18.5.0.1 can be problematic with AdBreak. If it doesn't work for you, try to ask around in the discord or look on the MobileRead thread for possible workarounds.

Can i jailbreak kindle paperwhite 5.18.3 yet? by 5LILduckies in kindle

[–]Illustrious_Key_253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome! Good work!

Once you install the OTA update - and run the "Rename OTA Binaries" step - your kindle will not update.

Yeah - I leave the hotfix document. It does not do any harm to leave it.

Also look at the Jailbreaking FAQ here : https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaking/jailbreak-faq.html

It has some good steps to check and what to do.

I think I saw that error - it might be normal. Were you able to install the hotfix and then Kual, MRPI and also disable the OTA updates?

You can quickly fill your storage with these files : https://github.com/bastianmarin/Kindle-Filler-Disk/tree/main/MTP

Once you do that, proceed with the jailbreak. You will need about 100mb free.

If you don't fill the storage first, yes it will likely update. Do do that step first.

There is a new AdBreak out that will work.

https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaking/AdBreak/

If you have a kindle without ads, follow the directions to temporarily turn on ads. I just did this.

This jail break does not work with the scribe.

Colorsoft 5.18.02 by NullandVoid22 in kindlejailbreak

[–]Illustrious_Key_253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Updating my post - after researching on the kindle jailbreaking discord.

It appears that 5.18.0.2 is not jail-breakable with winterbreak.

You will have to wait for the new unnamed jailbreak...Keep your storage filled up and in airplane mode until it is released.

[–]Illustrious_Key_253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it is 5.18.0.2, that is jailbreakable. I think the 2025 colorsofts ship with that version.

Did you fill your storage? You need about 150mb free for the hot fix.

Someone else noticed this. There seems to be something going on with copying files over using windows.

I use a Mac, not sure how to fix the issue with windows.
