Step #4:
Use this file:
https://www.adrive.com/public/yatbhy..._5.8.9.0.1.bin
This will "update" ("update" is the label on the button, not the action) your firmware from "customer" 5.8.9.0.1 to "factory" 5.8.9.0.1
Step #5:
As written.
Step #6:
Use this file:

Step #7:
This will return your device to a "customer" firmware build.
PW3-4Gbyte:
You can chose any customer firmware Amazon has posted for your PW3
The ones listed in the spoiler or newer (including 5.8.11)
- - -
PW3-32Gbyte:
DO NOT use any of the firmware links in the step #7 spoiler, they are all too old to run the 32Gbyte model.
Get a 5.8.9.2 or newer firmware from Amazon. ( 5.8.10 or 5.8.11 are also ok).
Step #8:
As written.

How much clear can that be written?
The forum software at this site limits changes to a post to the owner or a moderator (with that permission).
That includes the sticky first post of the jail break index thread.
This forum has not had an active moderator here in over a year.
This forum has not had the support of the site operator(s) for over 2 and a half years, more like 3 years.
It seems to me that the only reason Alex hasn't shut this forum down, is that he hasn't found the time.
One easy place to spot that lack is the prefix dropdown list (which requires a site level moderator to change) -
There is no support for 8th and 9th generation Kindles.
So once something is posted here, if anything happens to the author, that information remains visible regardless of how correct or current it is.
The owner of post you want changed is now in the terminal stages of Kidney cancer.
I don't expect him to get off of his death bed and make any changes in the post.
(when I write "deathbed" I mean that literally (although he can sometimes still get out of bed), most of his time is now spent semi-comatose from pain killers)
