Hi! I misread and installed this app (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=341123) on my jailbroken Kindle PW2 FW 5.16 (I'm pretty sure, can't check it because of the issue), and after running the ";log runme" script included in it, the screen became white and flashing. I hard rebooted it and for a while it showed the screen with inverted colors, however it keeps flickering and now it's fully blank again. It seems to not be completely bricked, since I can reach Kual with some effort, but the screen seems to be unable to refresh properly.

Any help would be appreciated! will include a video when I can.
