Post Same problem-fixed
I had the same problem after messing with the ro partition of the kindle. I had to do a serial debrick. I mostly used the serial jailbreaking instructions, and once I had userstore access I just dropped an update file, rebooted, and it fixed.
Here is a summary:
  1. Remove Battery
  2. Conect serial wires
  3. Connect Battery
  4. spam enter button in serial terminal to activate serial debug
  5. type in bootm 0xE41000 to launch diags
  6. if you have the rescue pack you already have ssh
  7. I didnt so I mounted the userstore, made a backup and dropped an update file
  8. I rebooted and it updated
  9. then I was stuck in diags and I couldn't exit and didn't have ssh so I copied geekmasters data.tar.gz https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=169645
  10. and his sample runme to the userstore
  11. after 2 reboots to se if the runme worked(one to install the data and one to run the runme), I removed the runme.done and replaced the contents of the runme with "idme -d --bootmode main; reboot"
  12. then It rebooted and was unbricked =)
Hope this helps
