Uninstalling JailBreak

shaana · 08-10-2012, 06:32 AM

I have jailbreak installed on 3.2.1 firmware. I am not able update to 3.3.

I try uninstall all hacks and jailbreak and run update.

Update started, message update successfull,
device is restarting,
blinking,
message update stage 1/2
and at end message update unsuccessfull.

Any idea how to solve this problem?

Thanks.

Does it display a failure code?
What "hacks" where on the machine?
What did you do to uninstall each of them?
In what order?
Are they really gone?

Does the problem already have a soluton indexed in our master index?

The more detail you provide, the easier it might be to give an answer.

After update attempt, no error code.
I have uninstalled hacks in this order:
- localisation
- fonts
- screensavers
- usbnetworking
- physkeyb
- at last jailbreak

When I new install JB and usbnetworking, where can I find in directory structure which hacks are installed?

Thanks

The hacks can affect the underlying structure of the device. There is no single location for them. Checking that is the complete list you installed might not be a bad idea.

Also a complete restart - holding down power for 20 seconds - and trying again would not go amiss. Other than that I am out of ideas. Perhaps someone can point you at a log that would tell you more.

FWIW. the screensavers, jailbreak, usbnetworking, fonts all did not affect the update of a 3.2.1 to 3.3 - even installed. I can attest to that.

@shaana: Yes, there is an error code. There's *always* an error code on failed updates.

Anyway, as always, check the logs (;dumpMessages) after a failed update to pinpoint the exact file(s) that the update is snagging on.

Error code is U006

NiLuJe · 08-10-2012, 03:23 PM

Which is the most general error code, which is expected from a failed official update because of a custom file somewhere

. Check the logs, since you had so much crap^Wstuff installed, we can't begin to guess what might be the issue

I had this months ago as well. I have to search if I have the prodkey or so somewhere I had to change. Sometime tomorrow, if nobody else can help you.

I install now jailbreak-0.10.N and usbnetwork. I can access whole Kindle filesystem. Where is located logs about installed software?

knc1 · 08-11-2012, 11:43 AM

In the build logs of lab126.

Depending on your make/model/firmware re-vision you may be able to find a manifest file that includes a lot of the files installed and their md5sum.

But you can probably do better than that by just listing the usual places (this is *nix, it has dedicated places in the file tree for installed files).

executabiles: /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
libraries: /lib/* : /usr/lib/* : /usr/local/lib/*

Then all you have to do is look-up any of the names you don't recognize.

Something like this?

Dangerous code deleted.

I want to try Duokan, and I have the same problem in update.
I uninstall all jailbreaks and hacks.
System update is mission impossible for me :-(

shaana · 08-11-2012, 12:56 PM

IMHO Maybe is problem with permissions to some directory/file? Installation hacks goes good.
