Hmm...
If not ready to trade it in for a new one - -
I would buy a "used, for parts" Kindle (same model) with a broken screen, and swap the hardware (everything mounts to the back of the screen).
That should give you a working device.
I.E: Because of the boot loop, it is most likely that your screen is good and your hardware driver on the mother board is bad.
It's a broken screen. A photo was posted and seen before taken down for being too large.
