Device: Kindle Scribe 2nd gen
Unhappy Kindle Scribe (2nd gen.) can't get out from demo mode

  1. I wanted to jailbreak (LanguageBreak) my Kindle scribe (2nd gen.)
  2. since version.txt file was not available among device files I decided to enter demo mode (hoping it will create such file)
  3. I entered ";enter_demo" during a normal wi-fi connection (wiping wifi network url)
  4. I entered demo mode, but the device stopped being visible on PC
  5. I used ;711 and learned that my version is 5.16.3 (not supported by jailbreak)
  6. tried to exit demo mode and used ;demo command, device loaded nice in airplane mode (I thought that I could live with it until one day JB becomes available for my version) but still I was not able to connect Scribe via usb to PC,
    so decided to reboot once again hoping demo mode will stop...

Now I see only login screen and wifi feature is disabled, so I can't register/login. And that's it.

I can't access any menu or anything else.

I can't connect the Kindle to the computer to access its filesystem.

I tried magic swipe gesture - don't work.

Restarting it doesn't help either.

How can I leave this mode and restore please ?
