So, I am following this guide with my KT2, and so far I have done step #6 completely.
I am not sure about step #7 though.

I have downloaded FW 5.8.5 from Amazon, and I want to block OTA in the future.
Should I upgrade to FW 5.8.5 first and then add the OTA-block, or do you have to put the OTA-block there before?

And also; will the OTA block hinder after-market add-ins from being installed?

Am I supposed to test with the "dummy installation package" and after which step should I use the dummy test?

And I take it that you are supposed to installed MRPI or KUAL AFTER you have upgraded to the FW you want to use(FW 5.8.5 in my case).

Sorry for the inconvenience, I want to make sure I am getting this right and I got a bit confused after step #6.
