Hello there,
I face some troubles with my paperwhite 2. I had a similar problem as described in this thread: http://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=277668
And I was not able to solve this issue (I also tried all the things previously described in the thread, my PW2 is always on airplane mode but out of the blue, my PW2 decided not to display its current content anymore).
So I decided (not sure if it was a smart decision) to jailbreak it. The jailbreak worked out fine. After the jailbreak, I wanted to add the KULA as a display option and installed it (KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2). I had the not so smart idea to chose the "restart Kindle" option out of the dropdown menu before letting the kindle update the new software.
Currently the PW2 is stuck in a frozen mode. It shows the initial start page with the person on the hill reading. The problem is that the PW2 wont show up as a USB device on the computer anymore. I tried in different operating systems, but neither recognizes the PW2 as a USB device anymore.
I also let the battery get completely empty, hoping that this might allow access to the PW2 on a computer. But it also does not work.
And the (soft and hard) reboot of the system does reboot the screen but it also ends up with the person on the hill.
Any ideas for help? I would really really appreciate it! Only now realized how much this PW2 actually means to me.
