well... it sort of worked for me. now I'm stuck again. I can get into the settings menu and I even managed to register it from the settings menu and it shows up in my amazon account. however the update button and the sync and check for items buttons are greyed out. any thoughts?

my serial starts with B05A and I'm version 5.4 firmware, I thought I was 5.2 but the device settings shows 5.4 so I'm going to try 5.4.4.2.bin and then 5.6.1.1.bin?

I can see the demo.bin file in the official build folder, and any .bin I put in there stays, however anything in the top folder vanishes whenever I disconnect the usb and plug it back in. I basically have a usable kindle at this point using the ;dsts command to be able to get the settings to work, but it's still annoying as hell to have it in demo mode. on mine ;exit_demo does not seem to be recognized as a command. I suppose at this rate I might as well just try the JB to see if that is recognized and allows the update button to be used. the original intent was a stock kindle however.
