I should mention as well, forgot to include this in my original post.

After having problems with my kindle (its reboot behavior was strange prior to the bricking), I deleted all the kfx files from my kindle using Calibre. I also deleted many of my azw3 files.

I was then planning to restart and and reset to factory settings, but this was when it stuck on the tree screen.

And now, I have tried resetting again, this time pressing until I see two flashes of the charger light, then pressing and holding after that until seeing the two flashes again.

After this, it actually went to the low battery sign. Strange, because it was full last thing yesterday, but I suppose if it had been churning away all night, it could have drained. So it is currently plugged in a wall socket, and it has gone back to the tree screen after 30 min charging. I’m going to let it charge fully and try again. Hoping it comes back and I can cancel the refurb.

ETA It’s still dead.
