This worked: I now have an item called "KUAL" in my library, and when I open it, and then "Helper," I have the option to "Install MR packages." When I select this, it finds no MR packages. I am assuming the MR packages are somewhere on the link https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=225030 but I don't know what to download in order to downgrade my Kindle to a previous firmware version.

I then looked at your steps, which involve installing Cowards Rescue Pack. I downloaded Cowards Rescue Pack, but do not know how to install it. And I downloaded KindleTool for Windows, but it does not work because I have Windows 16-bit and Kindle Tool is evidently only for 32-bit.

If you could help me along the next steps, I'd be grateful! Thanks again
To install CRP:
  • Extract the CRP archive you downloaded and place the Update_crp_3.N_install.bin file in the mrpackages directory on the Kindle USB storage
  • Open KUAL and select Helper -> Install MR Packages
Once that's done, you should follow the instuctions in the thread that I linked in my earlier post. You can download a copy of the original KT2 firmware from one of the mirrors here - the file that you're after is factory_KT2_5.6.0_initial.bin.
