Unfortunately I can’t do that...
My journey begun when Amazon decided that my device is “lost or stolen”. The device is of course bought by me in a store in the UAE and it was in my account for about a year. They told me that my serial number is a device that was a gift and then returned (lost or stolen is the generic “your device is a brick” term), which is not true either.

I know that you have zero tolerance with actually stolen devices, but this is clearly a mess up from the amazon side (which I can’t prove to amazon as I don’t have the recipe from a random buy that I did a year ago from a country faaaar away).

Maybe I can trick the kindle to think it’s registered? (I think powerd binary messes up)
