P.S.the battery was full 3 days ago and i ran coolreader on it, then after 1 day,
the battery ran off, it shows your kindle needs to charge.
P.S. i wanted to disable that java-reader, so i edited a file related to frame or evm or something like that.

If the device is jailbroken, it *might* be possible to craft a proper tarball w/ KindleTool, but I'm a bit fuzzy on the details right now (and/or if it's even remotely helpful in theory).

Anyway, in your specific case, depending on exactly when the failure first happens, even if you actually had USBMS/USBNET access, that might not have been enough.

Since we still don't know how to boot the PW1/PW2 in USB download mode without opening it up, that leaves....


TL;DR: Open it up, last resort serial access.
