I wanted to attempt to jailbreak my kindle (SO) in firmware 5.1.0. I used method 3 by Yifan Lu. At first the jailbreak screen showed up and all seemed good, then it went into system diags and after I reset it the third time it completely froze. The computer now no longer recongnizes it as a kindle touch (or anything) and I tried to use MfgTool to fastboot it, but it brings up the message "failed to run command: type = "boot" body = "Recovery" file = "fastboot.bin" timeout = "10" onError = "" text = "Loading fastboot u-boot to device." The handle is invalid., Error code:6"
Same message appears when I use MfgTool to try and boot into main or diags.

Any help would be awesome! Thanks ahead of time!
