More than +10 AF correction required for 16-85 on K3

My newly bought 16-85 seems to need more than a +10 backfocusing correction on my K3 (none on my K5), so I tried to enter the debug menu in order the shift the scale a bit.

As suggested in

http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/172-pentax-k-3/273233-pentax-k-3-debug-menu-fyi.html

I made 2 txt files in the root of an SD card with the titles:

00077760.520 containing the text [OPEN_DEBUG_MENU]

DEVELOP.MOD empty file

When I put the card in slot 1 and switch the camera on leaving the card slot open a new menu is supposed to appear, but nothing happens. I use firmware 1.11

Am I doing something wrong, or could it be that Pentax has blocked the hack in 1.11?

Thanks for your advice.
