The 'main' OS file system is corrupted beyond recovery.
Charge the Kindle on a wall charger for a minimum of 24 hours (the battery management chip is firmware controlled and your firmware is toast).
The little led light is also under firmware control, ignore it for the same reason.
From u-boot prompt, boot into the 'diags' OS (these kindles are dual-boot).
Use 'diags' menu to export USB storage (and hook cable to pc).
The password you have is for the 'diags' system, all password usage is blocked on the 'main' system (which is currently trash anyway).
Put the Amazon update at top of visible storage.
Remove USB cable (USB storage will auto-unexport).
Reboot.
OR
Near top of index page entries, find the "prefix" drop-down box, set filter to either Tutorial or Tools, click 'show threads' - -
Scroll down to something like: Serial jailbread for dummies.
OR
Select either the jailbreak index sticky or the master index sticky, in there find more "serial port" thingies.
My list above is complete, but those things you can find will give you context and examples to each of what I listed.
Which is all you need (in addition to the list above), some context.
