If everything goes right, it will boot up. And you can run `adb devices` on your computer to see if your DPT appears.

# Current `develop` Branch Features
It is a beta testing branch. It has been fully tested on my DPT-RP1 with Mac OS.
### Prevent permanent brick
Apply `patch-updater-bash` from script under `develop` branch in diagnosis mode.
It prevents bricks by detecting if you have pressed physical HOME button before PKG updating (3 seconds).
It will display bars on the top left of the screen, indicating count downs. Once detected, it will directly go into the diagnosis mode.
So in any case if you have a malformed PKG, you will have a way to bypass the update.
It does not modify anything else in the diagnosis mode. So if you have a malformed PKG that modifies the system files in diagnosis mode, this method will not work.
### Skip PKG update
Apply `patch-updater-bash` from script under `develop` branch in diagnosis mode.
It allows to change your mind before the update is been applied. If you pressed POWER button before PKG updating (3 seconds, use bar displays as hint), it will remove the uploaded PKG file and boot directly into normal systems.
