Jailbroken PW2 Accidental Update to 5.9.4
Hi,
I had accidentally performed an OTA updated on a Jailbroken PW2 to 5.9.4. Is there a way to downgrade this / retain my jailbreak without having to perform a serial downgrade? (I'm very lazy to do electrical work atm and would like to list out my options before going to my last resort). Thanks a lot |

Did you have hotfix installed prior to updating? If yes, then as long as you didn't factory reset, you should still have your jailbreak. Install the latest version of the hotfix to be safe.
P.S. You're probably still gonna need to reinstall your apps/add-ons. Last edited by ilovejedd; 04-30-2019 at 05:22 PM. |

But our packages must be reinstalled. Note: Start by re-installing our "hotfix" as mentioned above, using UYK menu entry (since you probable had a very old version installed). All of our add-ins that come as update_*.bin name form must now be installed using MrPI. (MrPI is now part of the above "hotfix", which you just added above). |
