You can try to plug in the kindle to the computer and see if you get a USB drive. Not sure if that's helpful unless you installed usbnetwork or something, then you can put an emergency startup script.

tl;dr: What did you do?
well, I didn't install any kindle app on my device. That's how I bricked my kindle:
press ENTER when kindle starts, then I enter the developer mode, where there is four or five option( I can't remember clearly). Then I press "U", which is a option about boot or kernel or something like that. Then I restart my kindle, and I get the problem.

ps: you can enter the developer mode too to see I talk about , but NEVER NEVER press the U.
