Today I removed Special Offers, then installed 5.10.1.3 factory firmware, then installed the jailbreak and other related files, then installed 5.10.1.3 customer firmware. I don't plan to update the firmware further since I use KOReader.
Thank you very much for the feedback! I believe this is the first confirmed report that factory firmware works on OTA firmware updates.

So do I follow the steps in the first post of this thread, but using the update_pw4_5.10.1.3_factory.bin file?
Yup, pretty much.
