Kindle KT5 fails to install hotfix after reset.

As the title says, I can not install the hotfix after resetting. My kindle does not even show invalid update file. It just does not recognise it. I modded this kindle a little less then a week ago using winterbreak. I had installed koreader, and found out it had a terminal. after experimenting a bit, i typed restart. The kindle froze, and did nothing for a few minutes. I held down the power button until it rebooted, and all of my books were gone, except three. A book I bought on the store, a pdf I uploaded to the cloud, and update hotfix. I tried to get kual back on, but it kept failing to show the "book". I reset the kindle, reinstalled kual, and it seemed to be working. but the hotfix was not working, and koreader also crashed when trying to open it. I will show the log below:

It's a scroll... It's a codex... It's KOReader!

I forgot to mention, before ths, I had blocked ota update with the renameotabin extension. But when reinstalling it and clicking restore again, it still does nothing.

Try placing hotfix bin file under mrpackages folder and run `;log mrpi` on kindle search
