Install the Amazon provided 5.3.1 image file using their normal "upgrade" directions (firmware does not detect that it is actually being "downgraded").

At least I think that is how it is done - I have asked people here to confirm, but no confirmations received (yet) - Also no "You fool, that doesn't work." posts either.
