Will PM you the details you need right after my lunch break. And thanks for the image file you plan to send. We need as many as possible because of changes Amazon/Lab126 has made. |

Do not let it update. Don't put any files on it. That includes connecting it to a MacOSx computer, just don't do that, Spotlight will write metadata files all over it as soon as it is plugged in. I will PM you the details of how to join into the fun. |

I should be getting my replacement tomorrow. Will follow up with my serial info once I have it ready to go. Given my delivery times it may not be until Saturday AM (US EST). If you could provide the required passwords to me that would be great and I will happily help test. Thanks for your efforts.

Jailbroken and updated to 5.9.2. Thank you! I downloaded the 5.9.2 update and applied manually, have not had wifi on since registration. One question: Every time there's a restart, I get a message that an update is needed to enhance my reading experience for Chinese, do I want to connect now? What is that update? I'm still getting it after applying 5.9.2.

I think there really is an update, but I think that file kind of triggers that screen too. I would say. Put the update.bin.tmp.partial folder in plaxe, and then connect to wife to clear our that message, if removing the file I mentioned doesn't clear it. |

It's a dictionary update; I got it a few days ago. It downloaded new versions of the Chinese, French, and Spanish dictionaries.

Did you get a dictionary download, too? I got both the "font update" message, and three new dictionary downloads, too.
