Try actually following the JB procedure in its entirety (as the package itself includes stuff to deal with those quirks)? Plus, you'll get a free JB in the process ;p.
I tried and the steps jb my both kindles was:
  • Plug in the Kindle and copy the data.tar.gz & ENABLE_DIAGS files plus the diagnostic_logs folders to the Kindle's USB drive's root
  • Safely remove the USB cable and restart the Kindle (Menu -> Settings -> Menu -> Restart)
  • Once the device restarts into diagnostics mode, select "D) Exit, Reboot or Disable Diags" (using the 5-way keypad)
  • Select "R) Reboot System" and "Q) To continue" (following on-screen instructions, when it tells you to use 'FW Left' to select an option, it means left on the 5-way keypad)
  • Wait about 20 seconds: you should see the Jailbreak screen for a while
  • The kindle restarts and stuck again in the tree screen
