My PW 5.3.1 was bricked yesterday because I changed some system jar files. Luckly I had installed jailbreak and rescue pack on it, so I could boot it in "diags" mode at first. I restored the original files throught USB network and reboot it in "main" mode, but it still came to YKNR-screen.
At that time I thinked that I should remove /var/local/upstart/*.restarts, so I rebooted it in "diags" mode again. I was not able to connect it through USB network anymore althought I could ping it. Finally I copyed file update_kindle_5.3.1.bin to /mnt/us, it upgraded after rebooting. Unfortunately it still came to YKNR-screen and I was not able to boot it in "diags" mode again.
I thinked if I excuted "remove /var/local/upstart/*.restarts" or "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p3 bs=4K count=1K" while it reboot, it will be unbricked. I copyed NiLuJe's data.stgz and runme.sh to /mnt/us, but it seemed not to work. Can anybody tell me what I should try next?
