If you're really, really desperate, you could try the
DO_FACTORY_RESTORE method.
However, this method might not work for you and you probably won't be able to use the Kindle for a couple of days while it rebuilds the file system.
For more information see
this thread. (Make sure to read the whole thread.)
If you have problems copying the file to the Kindle partition, try this method suggested by

As I recall Geekmaster once had that happen and fixed it with a bash loop.
In a batch script try:
Code:
:loop
type NUL > E:\\DO_FACTORY_RESTORE
goto loop
It will constantly attempt to create an empty file with the right name on Drive E. |
(The above code needs to be copied to a text file with a .cmd or .bat extension that you'll need to double-click.)
Before resorting to this method you may want to keep your Kindle on a wall charger for a couple of days.
