I bought the Kindle 2 International last Sept but have screwed it up after I tried to install a unicode hack. But after reading a few postings, I manage to enter into recovery mode and connect the Kindle with a PC.

I have deleted a few files and left with two - font.properties.orig and netfront.ini.org. Since then, I have kept the unit in Recovery mode and would not dare to do anything further until I know the next step.

Does that mean I have not bricked the unit and can reinstall the firmware? What should I do?

If possible, I would like to know how to correctly reinstall and upgrade proper unicode hack for Chinese.

Many Thanks
