Your Kindle will automatically restart as soon as the update process is complete.", and then reboots to the above screen telling me "the update was not successful".

This is an unusually long thread of problems - -
So an unusual question:

Is there any chance that either you or your friend turned off the kindle during the update process?

Doing so **could** have corrupted the flash device (not just the file system(s) stored on it - the device internals).
