Joining this conversation late, but I've read up all about this in the forums and can't find an answer to my problem: I've upgraded all the way to 5.3.2.1 without jailbreaking (and my device is not bricked). Now that I'm trying out Kubrick, my Kindle is not doing anything when I follow Kubrick's instructions to place it in USB downloader mode.

I tried: Hold power button until LED goes off, then depress home button, release power button, release home button (as instructed by Kubrick)

Also: Hold power button and home button together until LED goes off, then release power button, release home button.

Also: Swapping the order of releases.

Also: different delays in releasing either button.

No luck.

Might that be because of some change in the "invisible" update from 5.3.2 to 5.3.2.1?

Anybody else in my situation? Or am I being stupid?
