As you said?
I could not find it in your posts, which is why I asked for that information.

I do not recall asking you to downgrade your firmware, you must have me confused with someone else your working this problem with.

From what you are doing/posting, you must have the device jailbroken.

Install rescue pack, and optionally, its add-on coward's rescue pack.
Boot into diags.
ssh into diags and manually install a lower version of the firmware if that is what you want to do.
There are several threads around here with the full details of how to install the 'main' system while running the 'diags' system.

Firmware 5.8.9.2 -
I have no interest in running that version on any of my Kindles, so I will not be able to attempt to duplicate your problem and help you troubleshoot it, if it can be duplicated.
