Have you had the case open?
Any chance you knocked the display or touchscreen cables loose?
If so, re-check them, they are rather delicate and attached with tiny connectors.

You could probably make use of Amazon's trade-in program.
It would probably be better if you didn't mention your attempts to intentionally damage the device.
No, simply it stayed closed in his case for about 12 hours. I used it the day before and then the morning it didn't work. No knocks, temperature stresses, water or other. The warranty should expire the next month, so I could try to send it back to Amazon.

Yes, you're right, I meant by extension the flash memory.

Anyway, despite what you think, I'm not an inexperienced geek. I'm a computer engineer and I can say that Amazon Kindle is the worst electronic device that I ever had (I received it as a gift). It is completely closed, its software has countless bugs, its pdf reader is quite unusable and its cost is high. How much is stupid a device in which system directory is the same partition of the user directories? And why there is no way to enter the boot menu? And why can't I turn it off definitely and I can only reboot it? And why there are no buttons but one?

However I thank you for your help
