Explain with some detail of the steps you took.
Yes, that's essentially what I did.
I downloaded KV 5.13.1, connected KV via USB, copy the bin file to Kindle drive (not in a folder), then I disconnect the USB, go to the Kindle, hit menu, setting, menu, update. Then, it goes thru what looks like a reboot and update, but at the end when it boots all the way up, it's back to 5.9.4 and an earlier state. I've tried the same by reformatting the Kindle drive on PC, updating while connected to wifi or disconnected from the wifi. The result is the same.
