According to the serial number (B024), I downloaded the first file from (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...&postcount=995)

When I add the 5.6.5 bin file to the root, and eject device, I get the following message:

UPDATE ERROR - An invalid update file has been loaded on your device. Please go to www.kindle.com/support to access the Kindle Software Update page or to contact Kindle Customer Service for assistance.


Any insight would be most appreciated!!!
Can you manage to get to diags somehow?
If not, then you need to crack it open, get a serial cable, solder it, and flash manually (debricking).
