Hi guys, sorry it's me again. I have a couple of quick questions. I spent a considerable amount of time with Amazon staff the other night and they thought they'd removed the Special Offers, but for some reason they're still there despite the option now being greyed out on their end. Amazon Japan will not remove ads under any circumstances.

After they'd removed the offers I reset the device, applied the jailbreak and hotfix but once again the ads returned after connecting to Amazon servers.

I've put an RMA request with the company that sold me the device but they've asked that I make sure the firmware is up to date first. Can I safely apply the 5.11.1 update from Amazon and retain the JB? [from https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/custo...HPVAW86CHYHKS]

I know once I apply it I can't reset the device as I won't be able to re JB 5.11.1, right?

Thanks.
