Start USB downloader mode with "magic key".
Start fastboot mode with MfgTool.
Flash diags partition and diags kernel with fastboot.
Flash main kernel with fastboot.
Boot to diags.
Flash main partition using diags SSH "dd" command.
Erase mmcblk0p3 using diags SSH "dd" command.
Set main boot mode with idme command.
reboot.
It should work. It worked for many people. See the "success reports" list in the "simple debricking" thread.
Details for above steps are provided in the "small debricking guide for noobs". Find in in master index/tools index. It is a PDF file...

Things I have question is , since you need the diags kernel for diags mode, why the steps involve flash the main kernel?

" Also, you should keep the kernel versions matching the one that amazon shipped with whatever version of boot partitions you use."
I guess the boot partition is referring to the partition 1 for normal mode and partition 2 for diags mode?
Is there diags_kernel image file that is not 5.0.0?
