MfgTool only changes the bootmode for ONE boot. Next time you reboot it will go to the SAVED bootmode (fastboot). You need to change and save the bootmode either from fastboot or from diags. Until you do that, you will need to do a "tethered reboot" using MfgTool, to avoid always booting to fastboot mode (and appearing to be bricked because fastboot does not write to the eink display).
