Hacks Interferring with Beta-Testing?

Tanga · 03-30-2011, 06:42 PM

Hi,

I've been invited to beta-test a kindle app before its release. Does this mean I will need to remove jailbreak, etc? Or will I be able to leave things as they are? Will any of the jailbreak components clash?

I have installed the hacks from the first post in this thread:

Is the person asking you to beta test an official Amazon developer?

As far as I know, the only hack that will not be supported are the devkey hack, which allow you to run your own custom made active content applications.

Yeah (small developer) - not one to tell tales, so I'm not worried about that side of things. I'll uninstall dev-keys and see if that does the trick?

I think that will solve it. In order to beta test things, you have to have the developer's keys, not the hacked dev keys.

Thanks Kranu!

Update: Installed fine. Thanks again.
