My Kindle Dx B005。。。。。 2.3(XXXXXX)+UFH0.3.
I can not uninstall the UFH with update_ufh_uninstall-kdxi.bin or update_ufh_uninstall-kdxi.bin (old).
Everytime uninstaller update_ufh_uninstall-kdxi.bin (old) was put into the root menu, the option UPDATE YOUR KINDLE turned to be grey. I am wondering if there is any hint can help me uninstall the UFH and Jailbreke.

I have “Kindle 3″ but it does NOT support HEBREW.
In this website it seems that we are only dealing with “kindle 2″ or with “kindle dx”…how can i put Hebrew on my “Kindle 3″????

Hi there,

I have UFH 0.3 installed with firmware 2.5.8 then I figured the Chinese characters cannot properly displayed. However, I’m not able to remove the UFH 0.3 pack and it shows U007 error every time on the lower left corner. Do you have any idea about this? Thanks for your help.

Hi guys!
Sorry for my english.
Some minutes ago I have made successful update my K2 2.5.8 (B003) and by next step jailbroke it.
The jailbreak I took here http://goo.gl/2JlF
The main problem of the jailbreak was the message from Kindle about unsuccessful update, but after few attempts like this I made follow step and installed font hack. O-la-la!!! Now I have my Kindle with Cyrillic and version 2.5.8 + UFH 0.3

“There is no need to hack Kindle 3 to update fonts – you can do it via config file.”

Dear admin,

I have been enjoying your wonderful Unicode Hack for almost two years. I apply the hack while reading in Russian, revert back when reading in English (I like the delivered fonts better). Anyway, installing and uninstalling the hack has always been a breeze until my Kindle 2 was updated to v2.5.6. Now it won’t let me jailbreak it and the font update fails.

What do I do? I tried resetting to factory settings but the stubborn update sticks. Is there a new version of the jailbreaker in the works?

Many thanks!

Not until firmware 3.0 with unicode fonts is propageted to at least 2nd generation Kindles. I’ve tried to have English-Russian dinctionary published with cyrillic letters and couldn’t do it at the moment. This might change in the future.
