No.
Wrong thread, that is the current software jail break. In the sticky section at the top of the index page - Thread: "Jail break index" Section: "Historical jail breaks ..." The thread titled: "Serial jailbreaking your ..." Which should land you at: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=267541 Like we went to great lengths to hide that one.

Last I heard, they where still shipping with a version that can be jail broken. And if not, return it under their "No questions asked" return policy. Last edited by knc1; 11-29-2017 at 02:07 PM. |
