(I am presuming the above has a typo, and was actually /dev/mmcblk0 ). That command will write zeros to the entire device, including areas outside of the file system partitions. So unless you kept a copy of those areas that contain device and user specific data - you have done an "erase all" the hard way. |

On the old versions of Kindle recovery from that is certainly possible: https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kind...ownloader_mode My question is: Have somebody find out how to activate the downloader mode on Paperwhite? |
