Help, pls - Kindle Brick - not booting Diag??

Hi,

after upgrading my Kindle Touch to 5.1.0 I had my screensavers disappearing. Doing several factory resets & trying to understand why I got stuck during reboot. I'm not aware of doing real bad stuff like replacing / changing files I shouldn't have, so unfortunatly there is little help in explanation.

I understood that Diag mode can be triggert in almost every situation, so I'm stunned that i got it messed up that bad w/o much effort :-(

Is such situation known / any hints?
- Kindle stays on initial 'Person below tree' screen
- Reset (20 sec power) shows a short refresh, afterwards tree again
- Orange light when attached to PC.
- Shows disk w/o partition on Windows (Loading battery)
- Battery shouldn't be heaviliy discharged.

For recovery I tried:
1) Download KindleSelectBoot from first post:

2) Started diag (see 16sec video), HID recognized, diag uploaded

3) Kindle stuck with tree again, H:\ appears but is inaccessible in Windows.. :-(


Recommendations highly welcome. No important content on Kindle, so flashing 'good root' is a good option, but requires Diag mode. How to get there?

THANKS!
