PW3 Post-jailbreak & renameotabin reverted into original patch without Mkk folder

[Viras]

Hello!

After many attempts at the jailbreak I finally managed to get it working and I had KUAL working. I ran renameotabin and confirmed that updates were no longer possible.

However here's the problem: I wanted to finally setup Wi-Fi and had the managed device issue. I foolishly did the `;demo` steps and it rebooted. However now the Mkk folder is missing and I can't run the hotfix again because the update is grayed out. Am I screwed or is there something way to recover from this awkward device state?

Reboot twice see what happens

You can't use "Update Your Kindle" while OTA binaries are renamed, it's a known fact.

Reboot twice and then check if ";log mrpi" command is working or not.

Rebooted twice and tried `;log mrpi` and it showed `MRPI is not installed.` in the top left.

Ok. Now downlaod MRPI, extract and copy it to Kindle, and then add the hotfix bin into "mrpackages" folder then eject from your computer and re-run ;log mrpi.
When it installs the hotfix do 2 more reboot, again. Then check if you now have mkk folder.

MRPI: https://storage.gra.cloud.ovh.net/v1...-r19303.tar.xz

Why does this happen? I just had the exact same problem. Applying the hotfix inside languagebreak did nothing, i had to google a lot until i found this method. I'm on PW3, i don't know why this happened.
