Does anyone have any ideas?
Do you think that it would be possible/worth it to downgrade to another 5.6.x version and try again?

Thanks!
What method of disabling OTA updates did you use?
What was the prior version of the firmware that the OTA disabling did not protect?

^^ We do need to know these things, please answer.

Version 5.6.x is protected from "downgrade attacks" (Lab126's phrase for it - its error code 12).

So downgrading is not possible (if the prior jb wasn't bridged, can't be fixed, and the serial port can't be used).
