I have an Oasis 8th Generation, which has been jail broken for many years. recently when I connect it to my laptop, I get the above message. Running a scan makes no difference - I get the same message next time. I think my next step is to do a full resent, upgrade the firmware (it's running 5.7.4!) and jailbreak it again, this time using Winterbreak.

Does the panel believe that this might solve the problem, or is the drive on the way out? I don't want to go through all this just for the problem to be unchanged.

And if I upgrade the firmware, what version should I go for? I'm not sure what this model is capable of running, but I don't want 18.5.

Thank you.
