Hi everybody!

I followed all the instructions and managed to jailbreak my PW2 (5.12.2.2) earlier today. According to Step 5 of Post-Jailbreak, updating my device with this hotfix file should have brought my Kindle out of Demo mode. Problem is: It didn't.

My PW2 seems to be stuck in demo and I can't find a way out. All advice I could find on this was to reset the device to factory settings. Since the jailbreak and everything else worked so far after a lot of headache I would prefer not to take this route and find a way to get out of the demo without losing everything I've done. Any tips / solutions?

Thanks a lot!
