Hi.
I stupidly scanned a couple of comics and used Kindle Comic Converter to make a ~150MB .mobi file, and copied it to the documents folder. NOT THE ROOT FOLDER.
I used the USE_ALT_FONTS fonts workaround, and had version 4.3.9
installed. my kindle was non-jailbroken.
I was quite aware of the toll that fonts have on my kindle, so I had only 4 extra fonts installed. I had ~60 .mobi books, ~10 .azw3, and a 600MB PDF (which was just pictures, and ran fine). Also, I was messing with it, and had ~30 12MB .mobi files (comics converted with KCC).
After copying over the ~150 MB mobi file, I deleted all other comics, so that I had ~200 MB free space. I restarted my kindle, and it has since been stuck on the circular loading animation of the boy under the tree. I have charged it fully quite a few times, and it keeps loading (the bar never appears) until it discharges.
My computer recognizes my kindle as
"Kindle Internal Storage USB Device" in device manager, and in My Computer simply as "Removable Disk". The format option does not work, and disabling and re-enabling it has not helped.
My kindle heats up to a considerable degree, and the lower right-hand corner of the kindle seems to emit a weird beeping noise.
Also, none of my books were faulty, and had been used on the same device in the past. The large .mobi file works fine on my computer.
Is there any way I can delete those books? I can not access the drive using traditional methods. (Win 8.1 x64)
TL;DR: Filled my kindle PW so that it is stuck at the initial tree screen. Unable to access drive, unable to modify drive. Any suggestions?
UPDATE: After 34 hours of constant charging and preventing overheating, my kindle started normally. My kindle was wiped clean (??) but was not factory reset, and had only the kindle user's guide. I then Factory Reset my Kindle, following eschwartz and knc1's suggestions, and now it works fine.
WOO-HOO!
