Hi all - trying to update old KT2 I had. Went through the tutorial and thought I had it when I saw the text messages about Jailbreak installing. But then I tried to install USBNetwork and/or KUAL and somehow it got stuck in some weird state.

Decided to do a factory reset via "DO_FACTORY_RESTORE", and went through the steps again. At step 10 of Jailbreak, I tap on the Store button, but it pops up: "Wi-Fi Settings Locked - This is a manged device..."

So I don't think the Jailbreak is actually running, despite all of the files being there in the .demo folder.

Any advice? I'll probably do another factory restore and try it again. Thanks!
