Still no dice. I will add that my KT was already jailbroken with yifan lu's method. Here are more steps that I've tried in the MfgTool (diags mode):

1) Copied data.tar.gz to the Kindle (J: ) drive (where all the other folders are like audible, documents, music, etc are), and rebooted in diags mode. The data.tar.gz file does not show, which I assume is a good thing.

2) Copied the RUNME.sh into the Kindle (J: ), and rebooted in diags mode.

Code:

#!/bin/sh
mntroot rw
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p3 bs=4K
mntroot ro

Got RUNME.out, RUNME.done. The RUNME.done is empty, and the RUNME.out shows

Code:

system: I mntroot:def:Making root filesystem read-only

Deleted the RUNME.out and RUNME.done.

3) Copied the RUNME.sh and the mmcblk0p1-kt-5.0.0.img file into the Kindle (J: ) with the RUNME.sh

Code:

#!/bin/sh
mntroot rw
dd if=/mnt/us/mmcblk0p1-kt-5.0.0.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p1 bs=4K
mntroot ro

Reboot in diag mode. Same RUNME.done and RUNME.out as before, but the mmcblk0p1-kt-5.0.0.img file is still there. Deleted the RUNME.out and RUNME.done.

4) Stop the MfgTool diag mode. Change to Kindle main mode. Reboot. Start the MfgTool main mode. "Your Kindle Needs Repair" message still comes up.

5) Stop the MfgTool main mode. Reboot to MfgTool diag mode. The same mmcblk0p1-kt-5.0.0.img, RUNME.done, RUNME.out, RUNME.sh are all still there.

Can anyone spot what I am doing wrong? Thanks.
