What firmware version was the device running prior to the OTA update to 5.11.1 (it is the firmware version that was running, not the firmware version that is be installed that needs to be known).

Would you please provide either an image or a screen capture of the file and directory layout seen at the top level of the visible USB mass storage.

Was running 5.10.3 previously. I am almost positive I had the Helper+ extension installed and had blocked OTA updates. I went ahead and reset it which is why you'll see today's date as the modified date.
