I just revived my old DXG today by replacing the dead battery. I soon after installed the jailbreak (ver 0.13N) from the thread. It went smoothly.

However, I then decided to install the python update and that update is now still hanging at about 50% for about an hour now which probably means it is frozen. What are my options now and what is the safest way to attempt any recovery? Thanks in advance! I really hope I haven't broken it somehow.

If it helps, the old DXG was never registered since I am overseas and never got the wireless to work. The firmware version is 2.5.8.
