Kindle Oasis 8th gen Jailbroken - No Option for Book display Lockscreen
So I recently reset my Oasis and jailbroke it on 5.14.3 and all is well, but For some reason the option to have my currently reading book set as the lockscreen isn't appearing. I know I can manually set the lockscreen with it being jailbroken but was wondering anyway I could get this feature to reappear since I had it before.

Possibly it has 'forgotten' that Special Offers are disabled? It might take a connection with Amazon to turn it back on again.

I did stumble upon that post, But I'm unsure on how to get to those files. Is it via SSH? or is there a file explorer I can load onto the Kindle?

I tried SSH but could never authenicate.

It doesn't work on my Oasis 3 (5.14.3.0.1). It seems no effect on me, and those changes (BookCover.preference and the inserted record) was gone after reboot.
