UPDATE: I figured out why I can't enable MF assist - it's basically because I'm using the 'no lens' option from the developers menu, as my (bad) analogue lens adapter couldn't press the pin for lens recognition - for the camera there's still not lens attached tho, therefore keeps the MF assist disabled. Real bummer that no one giving the 'no lens cheat' workaround made a point regarding this important limitation. In any case, if there are other 'cheat codes' intervening on debugger or firmware to let the MF assist enable also with the 'no lens' option, that would be of great help (please no 'put some tape on the adapter or the pin', as I already done it and it's not a solution ideal for my photography jobs).

Wouldn't the ideal solution be getting an adapter that works?

What guarantees me I won't waste other money on another incompatible one? Not easy to find in retail shops where I can try them, been advised to order on Amazon by them actually.
