Try holding you kindle so that light reflects off the screen, and see if their is an slight change of background tint, that changes with angle to your eyes or to the light source. A crack can be nearly invisible, but still slightly change the surface plane of the glass substrate (often visible by the test I suggested).
Good luck.

I dunno. I think I've seen (probably) just about every native (as in I didnt break it) horrific broken
SOFTWARE scenario for X and non X kindles now. sync broken, only green text on black, tiny white box in corner, only black output, only grey screen, single grey line in middle of screen, partial garbled output, etc. etc. That
kinda looks like a broken X... but you don't have one I believe...
I don't recognise that one if I am honest...
My guess? and it's a guess... Toast. Sorry mate.
