Hello everybody,
I'm new here and I hope I'm not breaking any rule - I'm very sorry if thats the case! My Kindle PW2 (Serial Nr 9017) froze on the Screensaver 2 weeks ago and I haven't been able to revive it since then. I have read a lot in this forum but I'm a little overwhelmed by the huge amount of information. I would be really thankful if someone could point me in the right direction on how to proceed with unbricking or if its even possible...

How should I proceed from here? Is there anything else left that I can try before soldering in the serial connection? And what instructions are the most up to date to follow for debricking via serial?
Thank you so much! Any help is appreciated..
