Upgrading non-Japanese 4GB PW2

kdyovt · 02-21-2015, 11:07 AM

I have a non-Japanese 4GB PW2 version 5.4.3.2, and from what I've read on the forum posts, this model is unable to run Collection Manager due to the active content changes done in the framework, unless I upgrade it to 5.4.5

So I installed Jailbreak 1.14 and fake-registered it with update_reginfo_0.08 to use the native collections for now. My questions are:

1) I know that the JB 1.14 survives an update to 5.4.5, but does that hold true even for this pesky 4GB model, fake-registered?

2) Should I ever need to downgrade it back to 5.4.3.2, will I be able to do that through the umount-and-poweroff trick?

Thanks.

@kdyovt: Yes to both. Note that you don't really 'lose' anything from 5.4.2 to 5.4.5, so the downgrade issue isn't particularly critical anyway.
