Amazon.cn charges CNY 611.28 for a replacement of my faulty Kindle PaperWhite, they don't offer repair service.

That funny 611.28 amount probably is translated from 100.00 USD...

Anyway I'd rather buy another new one if I have to pay such amount for a replacement only.

Is it possible to bring the USB mass storage back? Or will there be a recovery mode (download mode) discovered for KPW?

The following is the Linux dmesg when the device is plugged in.
