KOA (1st Gen)

Lt.Kippo · 01-23-2018, 02:05 PM

Just a simple question. New here. reading a lot on here.

I have a KOA that was Jailbroken on the factory dev image last year (2016). I recently updated it to 5.9.2.0.1 for the new functionality. All I really used was the screensaver hack. (why Amazon won't let us do this to start I'll never know

.

Using knc1's script I successfully returned a Public Key, so I assume I'm still Jailbroken?, I know I can't do much with it at the moment as nothing works for this firmware.

Am I in fact still Jailbroken? and is there any hope for my beloved screensaver hack in the future?

The device is now in Airplane mode, as knc1 noted the folder trick to prevent updates is no longer functional on this firmware.

Thanks all!

A FAQ,
Although I hope to change that with the release of the new bridge code, which should be some time, just any day RSN.

Man, I can be slow at times. Must be getting old. I knew you had to install things again, but did not know how. I did NOT realize I can manually run code via ;LOG mrpi It's working now and all is well.

Thank you for your response and all the hard work you do here knc1!
