As you can see the last line is for my kindle just the Different variant

on Nicknames page
Code:
B0C6, 90C6-Kindle Basic (2014)    KT2, BASIC  [Support added in KindleTool 1.6.3]
B0DD, 90DD-Kindle Basic (2014) (Australia)    KT2, BASIC    [Support added in KindleTool 1.6.5]
The second is mine (I don't live in Australia) and MRPI still doesn't recognize it.

There can only be a problems: That v1.6.3 of Kindle tool was used to make this package.

Is there a way to repack the package for my device using a updated kindle tool.
In that case you are all ready to go.

Any package that is built with the older KindleTool -
Using the current KindleTool from NiLuJe's snapshots thread -
Extract the desired package -
Re-package it, specifying your model.

There are examples of doing that posted here.
It is a simple sequence of two command line commands.
