No. I can't reproduce white blanket screen either. Did you read "blank white" as "blanket white"?

BTW, tip about USB charging screen.

I've also got almost blank USB charging screen (after installing of ru_RU localization bundle). There was no text, just an USB plug image.

It is just a translator's error (or laziness, or something non-understandable). Strings in blanket.po with ids usb.screen.header, usb.screen.message, usb.screen.message_nc are left empty. But they should contain appropriate messages.

Also, Kindle's locale must be set to ru_RU.UTF-8. Not just ru.UTF-8. I.e. /var/local/system/locale should contain:
Code:
LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8
LC_ALL=ru_RU.UTF-8
After a downloading of blanket.po for Russian language, adding of missing messages, compiling to .mo and copying compiled blanket.mo to Kindle at /usr/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES, I am seeing localized Russian text at USB charging screen.
