Thanks for the advice. I think the problem is with my kindle battery. It suddenly went from full one day to critical the next and no matter how I charged it, hard reset it, it just wouldn't charge or boot up. A little disappointing since it has only been a few weeks since I bought it.

Tried flashing and made sure the diags and kernels match but it's stuck at the jagged screen which I now know is the boy under the tree in diag's resolution and the issue is that the battery is not charged enough for it to boot into diags.

Usually it would be an easy exchange with Amazon but since I am outside the US, shipping fees, which can add up to 90% of the value of the kindle 4 NT complicate the matter.

Anyway thank you very much for the assistance rendered here. I truly appreciate it.
