The screen turned black for 2/3 when I refreshed it and it stayed that way. I disassembled the BeBook to see if something got loose. But after that the working bottom part of the screen turned zebra after resetting. So the screen is not broken, at least not cracked, but some contacts probably are. I can recognize the openinkpot startup screen in the after resetting in the lines that are still working so I guess it's some contacts between the PCB and the screen. Well.. actually on the board or in the screen. But I can't fix it.

I guess I have to buy a new device.
