Note the pic attached to #5 above - it is wrong or at least un-expected **if** the indexer has finished its work.
(I am looking at my K5, Wifi+3G, prior to recently released cert update as a reference.)

Only 'all items' is active.

The 'active content' should not be grayed out - KUAL is installed.

The 'books' should not be grayed out - Kindle User's Guide should still be installed.
At least the O.P. did not mention removing it.

The O.P. did mention that *.txt and *.pdf are on the device, so -
The 'docs' should not be grayed out.

Note above: **if** the indexer is finished.

Since the device received a recent update - the content might have to be re-indexed (and the database re-built) . . . .

I think that the device should not be reset, instead, treat this as an "indexer failure".
I.E:
Do the search bar test to see if the indexer is running -
If it is, then start with the routine of:
Connect to PC -
Delete half the items -
Safely remove -
Wait -
Re-test if nothing appears -
Repeat until only the Kindle User's Guide and KUAL remain.

Note also that the O.P. did not have a recent enough JB installed to bridge MKK -
he reported KUAL is broken and has not reported fixing it.

Note also that the O.P. did not mention re-installing Midori, which would be expected after a '5 series' update.
