Me trying to be a smartass and with no knowledge of Programming tried to rename the downgrade file as the one for the update. Of course it didn't work, the Update my kindle was still grayed out.

But maybe a programmer can discover what makes the OS to accept the update file and erase an old one?

Anyway, just an idea...
Same answer. The cell doors are still locked.
Only if you had the keys (jailbreak installed) before it updated can you downgrade.
