Br,
What model?
That sounds like a Kindle Touch, not a Paperwhite.
OR
What you are calling 'Erase All' is not the same as what we are calling 'Erase All'.

It isn't 'dead' -
Unless you somehow managed to damage the SoC bootcode that is burned into it at the factory.

There is a thread here explaining how to recover a Kindle that has a truely blank eMMC.
Check out the one on upgrading the size of the eMMC (which comes from the factory as blank as it can be).
