DP75SDI partition table wiped — need raw partition image

arungop · 06-01-2026, 06:13 AM

Hi, my Kindle Paperwhite 7th Gen (DP75SDI, serial G090G1XXXXXXX) is soft-bricked. While attempting recovery I accidentally dd'd a firmware .bin onto /dev/sdb which wiped the partition table. The bootloader still works (device shows up via lsusb and dmesg consistently) but fdisk shows no partitions and "unrecognised disk label."
Running Ubuntu. I have full dd access to /dev/sdb during the ~60 second boot loop window.
Does anyone have a partition table backup or full raw image for DP75SDI / Paperwhite 7th Gen they can share? I can restore it via dd.
