Not getting all files with dd

I've done a backup on my PW1 but some files are missing in the image. For an example /mnt/us are empty. When I search through the image pretty much all the personal information about the firmware version, registered owner, Wifi network etc are missing. When connected to the Kindle I can browse through all the files in the shell.

On the host computer I've run:
nc -l 5555|dd of=mmcblk0p1.bin

And on the Kindle:
dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p1|nc 192.168.15.201 5555

After this I have repeated this for the other three partitions. I have also tested to do it all in one image with mmcblk0 but the result is still the same.

Do anyone know why I'm not getting all the files and what I can do to fix this?
