1) There is a test package to test if the jail break (a single, 256 byte, signature certificate) is present.
It is attached to the first post of the current jail break and is also available in the first post of "NiLuJe's snapshots" thread.

A thought to keep in mind:

It is also contained in the KOA2 jail break directions.

2) The "ghost" image of the document format of KUAL is a known problem, I am working on a way to remove it. Meanwhile, it does no harm.

Now that you have updated to 5.9.x.y.z firmware series - you must use the booklet version of KUAL. It is in the same archive as the other two document versions.

3) There is a general purpose, "big hammer", fix nearly anything about the jail break and its survival code, package in coplate's snapshots thread. It does not require MrPI to install, you can use UYK or just re-boot into its install.

(coplate made special packaging for these "rescue" packages so that they do not require MrPI, but the packaging also over-rides the "model lock" protection)

Many of the things related to the installation and maintenance of the jail break are catagorized as "tools".
Use the prefix filter drop down box to select "tools", click "show threads".
That will give you a shorter list of thread titles to look through.

Note:
This forum software restricts edits of posts to the owner (original poster) and the forum moderators.
We do not have any active forum moderators.
Plus, many of the original authors have moved on to other things (or died in some cases).
So the out-dated information in thread posts must remain - since nobody here can fix it.
Note 2: The site owners/administrators have ignored our requests to have an alive, active, member assigned as moderator.

= = = = =

The above is part of the reasons I am moving the things I write to off-site locations, locations where they can be maintained.
(and you don't need a fancy ad-blocker just to read them)
