help - is my reader bricked?

[tofubean]

My reader is stuck at opening book. It says 1fskin:/l/string... at the bottom but no image loads up in the home section. I had managed to flash the chinese hacks and it was working well. I could see the menus and everything else in chinese. But when i tried to transfer book, the sony reader library hanged up on me and i took out my usb cord and now i had this.

I tried to do a reset but it doesn't seem to work.

Update: I solved the problem. Seems like the hang up has nothing to do with the hack but everything to do with me plugging out the usb cord while the sony library was trying to transfer a file over to the reader. Here's the solution to my problem if anyone else is interested.
