So, it was a success from step 1 through to 19…. With no issues and everything going as described.
Post jailbreak is where the weirdness starts. After it reboots it’s in English and not in Chinese as some of the posts suggest.
Typing ;uzb doesn’t allow a usb connection as the PC doesn’t recognise the kindle as a storage device.
If I reboot the device by holding down the power button it allows a usb connection again but if I transfer the hotfix and do an “update device” it fails, reboots then takes me into managed mode where it’s a PITA to do anything without going back into ;demo.
I can’t seem to get out of managed mode by any other means than installing a “DO_FACTORY_RESTORE” file in the root directory and doing a full wipe.
I’ve then found trying the jailbreak process again would completely fail unless I transferred the update_kindle_11th_5.16.2.1.1.bin file back to the ROOT directory and performed an update again. This seemed to get me back to a state where I can get through steps 1 to 19 again without failure.
I’m assuming when I reboot the kindle when the ;uzb step fails its causing the hotfix update failure?
Any help with this would be much appreciated.

The hotfix needs to be applied using the UYK button - rebooting the device forces it to trigger the initramfs updater that can't install the package
