Anyway, fortunately the recovery console worked and the DXG was put back to life with old 2.5.8 firmware. A software restart was necessary to also get the web browser to work again.
Would it be possible to upgrade firmware 2.5.8 with a smaller subset of v 3.1 e.g. only the webbrowser?

Thanks for the tips! I have another tester who is getting the same error as you and I suspect that the cause is the firmware not reading the hardware battery voltage. Unfortunately, there is little I could do apart from blindly guessing at this point. I do not have a K2i or DX to test with, so it is hard to find out exactly what is wrong.
Maybe if you (or anyone else) rip a copy of the /sys structure so I can see what the hardware structure is on the new Kindles, it could help a bit. I think doing something like "find /sys > /mnt/us/sys.txt" via SSH/usbNetwork/recovery port I've been scanning eBay for a while now trying to find a cheap broken K2i or DX to test with, but unfortunately, they're all > $40, which is too much. Right now, I know that it works 99% (just a bit of installer gliches) on the K2 US, but that's the only hardware I can test with.
