A few questions

Hello all,

Sorry, I have searched but was unable to find an answer (may be lack of coffee).

1) Do NiLuJe's RP and CRP in the snapshot thread support the KV at this point? I have read the changelog in the CRP but couldn't spot any mention of the KV.

2) How would one go about restoring the jailbreak (bridge pack installed) after updating to the newer firmware? (Now I am certain this will be explained somewhere in the forum I think it's going to be one of those days for me)

Thanks and sorry if you've already answered these questions before.

You don't need to do anything to restore the jailbreak after a firmware update. Firmware updates have no effect on a jailbreak.

Perhaps better phrased:
Firmware updates do not require user action to restore, it auto-restores with each update.

Ah, cool, thanks guys. I just had a niggle that some updates now might remove the JB. Can't remember why I thought that.

No. An update might disable some hacks, but it will have no effect on the actual JB.

Possibly because hacks require being restored, but the jailbreak does not.

Or possibly because if you were running an outdated version of the jailbreak when firmware 5.6.x was originally rolled out, you needed the hotfix to update the jailbreak with the "gandalf" addition in order to continue working on post-5.6.x firmware.


Regarding RP/CRP, yes they work on the KV.
The ultimate test is to try installing -- if they don't work, they won't install, since they are model-locked.

Thanks guys.
Very good point eschwartz, had my brain been working I'd have remembered that they were model locked.
