To use KOReader you need to jailbreak. And to be able to jailbreak you need w device that has older firmware, 5.16.2.1.1 is the last firmware build that LanguageBreak exploit works on.

So, the answer to your question is, yes if you're lucky enough to get Scribe with old enough firmware.

Does anyone know if koreader is successfully installed on kindle and it is turning through pages of PDF text (scanned books) will the kindle still do the screen refresh with every single page turn?

The eclipsa 2E did not do that, pocketnook inkpad lite does not, but when I first tried the Scribe and even my old paperwhite every single page turn the screen does the black screen refresh

Is there any mod available to stop the kindle from doing this?

On stock Amazon reader software? Anytime there is any image on the page (like say used as a "scene break" or for chapter headings) even if you're not reading a PDF all Kindle models I ever owned would do full page refresh when you turn to the next page.
Not sure about that behavior when using KOReader on a Kindle.

You can't "mod" anything on a Kindle without jailbreaking it first.

And Amazon unlike Kobo are determined you can't even easily do simple stuff that Kindles used to allow, like collections from PC, or making the stupidly large minimum margins smaller.

You can't do collections at all without registering. They want you to "manage" it via your Amazon account web page.

That is a very beaten and very dead horse.

Easy fix for that are custom fonts with modified line spacing.

Not the gap between lines in a paragraph nor the gap between a paragraph. The issue is the overly large left/right margins even when set to minimum. Do we really need to lose 20% of the screen to imitate a paper book?

Ah, you're talking about page margins, not font margins. Frankly, I'm reading on maximum possible, since I like to read with smaller font sizes and taller looking aspect of pages. In fact, I'd love it if I could get more margins at top and bottom, but I can understand that more options would be welcome for people with a different taste. I'm not sure that we'll get them, though, design direction of Amazon tends to favour minimalism.

Especially margin size: there are only 3 choices. Of course, 2 choices would be even more minimal.

I meant the size of the margin. Even if they went to the currently narrowest choice with no option to change it wouldn't be minimalist.
