Hey guys! Happy new year!

I'm having a strange problem. I'm trying to repair a K4NT who seems to be looping (reappearing books, and reset factory does not work).

At first i tried Kubrick from USB and from DVD, however after fastboot reset the kindle does not go into diagnostics mode. After reading some threads about this being a really weird problem, i thought there could be a problem with flash memory, emmc, or something beyond my knowledge.

However i decided to try the old debrick method with MFGtools and all that, and the K4 goes normally into diags mode (however, and this is the other problem, i cannot get it to appear as new device, to install the libusb and get the fastboot going).

So, any ideas. Maybe i can do something in Kubrick, so to force the K4 to go into diags mode?
