I'm not sure what would be the state of the "bridge" Upstart job after doing a factory reset on device with firmware 5.17.1 or newer. If it still runs that job it should check for the existence of "/mnt/us/emergency.sh" and execute any code you put there.
What did you use originally to rename ota binaries? KUAL extension "renameotabin" or @Marek's "scriptlet" from Discord severe or that thing that does both OTA rename and disables sending logs to Amazon?

I followed the method listed here and used the KUAL to disable the OTA updates:

I'm sorry for being inexperienced with this, but how might I go about making a shell script to try and undo it? I assume I'd make a .txt, but I'm unsure of what to put in the script,

Copy it to home directory of your kindle device
and restart your device
It will then install and restart the kindle
Then you get to pick your passcode and you reach home page. |
I see that having the official firmware seems to be a fix, but the colorsoft still doesnt have it available yet
