License/Warranty Disclaimer. #53

It has come to my attention that end-users seem to make the assumption that by using PocketTool, its contributors are somehow responsible for any damage that occurs to their local copy of MCPE (error -24 seems to be the culprit). As it is, PT fronts a disclaimer upon first usage that it may not work and that errors may occur on Jellybean devices. However, this doesnt seem to be informative enough to end users about their own responsibilities when using PT.

I am considering having PT prompt the user of clause 5 "NO WARRANTY" of the Eclipse Pubilc License on first use, along with the EPL's agreement statement. If there are any other thoughts or suggestions about this, please post them here.

Why not be proactive and not install a corrupt APK? If the APK doesn't contain key files, don't even install it.

Sounds like a reasonable solution. I'll add that to #50
