Since my PW2015 was bricked, here is the instruction based on my memory, it may not 100% correct

Instruction:
1) Connect your kindle to computer via USB
2) Use your PC to download and save busybox to the Kindle's USB Mass Storage.
Code:
https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/busybox-armv5l
3) Login the Kindle via SSH root@192.168.15.244
4) Copy busybox to the tmp directory, dump the mmc and wait for copy by the following command
Code:
cp /mnt/us/busybox-armv5l /tmp/
chmod 755 /tmp/busybox-armv5l
cd /tmp
./busybox-armv5l dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 |./busybox-armv5l nc -l -p 6000
5) From your PC, run the follow command
Linux/OSX:
Code:
nc 192.168.15.244 6000 >paperwhite2015.bin
Windows: Please download busybox from (https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/busybox-i686) and add ".exe" to the extension and run
Code:
busybox-i686 nc 192.168.15.244 6000 >paperwhite2015.bin
6) zip the "paperwhite2015.bin" and upload to any free file-sharing hosting.
7) Share the link with me.
