@knc1 I bought it in a local store here in Italy, new in the original box. It was on 5.6.5. I ran the update to 5.6.5 (yeah, same version) from the recovery menu before trying that password, I don't know if that matters. I changed the password of the rootfs immediatly, but I did not change anything on the diags partition as far as I can remember so I can share it if you want to have a look at it.

Edit:
Firmware version: Kindle 5.6.5 2730300038
