Please help me, I fear I have bricked my PRS-T1.

I got ir rooted long time ago and wanted to update its firmware. It failed and so I made a factory reset. Since then I always experience pop ups saying "The application Home has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" after startup. If reopens every time I confirm. Nothing can be done, not even connect to the computer via USB.

So I decided to use the rescue image. I donloaded it and extracted the file to my micro SD card (FAT32). I inser the memory card and restart the device. While its booting I hold home and menu until the bar reaches the 100%. But then the rescue mode doesn't appear. Instead it opens the normal homescreen with the annoying error message. Why doesn't it initialise the rescuing process?
