Hi all,
my kindle dx maybe bricked.
the original version 2.1.1(actually 2.1.1 + ufhack0.1 ), ufhack can be used to translate english into chinese
i use a friend of mine's restore.(he also give rootfs.img to me,but i dont know how to use it.）restore2.5.8-os
then my kindle dx stop at the screen"your kindle is starting up this can take a minute"
then, i use amazon's update_kindle_3.2.1 .it's still stop at the screen....
then, i use my friend's restore....
then, repeat the above action....

now ,my dx is still stop at that screen about three days...
I can enter 'Recovery Mode' by holding 'Home'
This then gives me a screen displaying the following:

"Your Device Is in Reovery Mode.To exit this mode, press the (R 4) key.
If you need to update your Kindle through Recovery Mode, please call Customer Service for rurther assisstance at 1-866-321-8851 or 1-206-266-0927. For UK customers, please call +44(0)800 496-2499."

In this mode I can access the document via USB and transfer files.
