Anything I tred on it does not work, no reaction to the attempt to switch it on or connect it to the PC. Any advise at all, Please? I need to know if there is a chance to revive the thing.
Thank You.

Honestly, I don't know what more I can do to protect you people from yourselves.

I'm agree with you, it's my fault and my problem. But in theory, what is possible to make, to get back kindle to life?

Well...in theory, you would have to obtain the private signing keys from Amazon so a custom bootloader can be made for the new devices. Then you would have to put it in USBboot mode, most likely by shorting the USBboot pin to a ground point on the device and using a custom tool like Firekit, made for the 2nd generation devices, to send low level USB commands to the device and flash a signed bootloader.
But that's all speculation at this point.

I guess the whole "this is only for first gen KFs and will brick your KFHD" thread confused you? Wow, just wow!

Hardly. I was thinking ADB drivers since the commands returned with denied permission.

Try a factory reset then try again, make sure allow installation from unknown sources is ticked,when you get the prompt on your kindle to restore during the process enter your amazon password then hit restore.

Thanks you guys are the best, wish i was born 20 yrs later lol

I DID IT!!!!!!! This is a big deal for me and this is how I(ole Grany) here Rooted a Kindle Fire HD 7.4.1.
I Changed PC's from Win 7 to Windows XP
I did a clean install of the ADB Drivers for Kindle(Made sure it showed up in Device Manager (No SDK install)
I restored Kindle to Factory, Set the Accept things like adb and developer thing in the kindle
I installed the Bin4ry v26(tried v30 would not work)
I extracted the Bina4ry to desktop to folder called "rooting"
then went to prompt and / cd desktop/rooting/runme
First go I thought I screwed up Kindle all apps gone and it was in slow mo..
Did a factory reset
Started over...BAM! I almost peed my pants...
Then followed instructs for installing Play...BAM..done
Now all I need is a new rom which I have no idea which is best so give me some ideas and I will learn how to install that
Oh I used es explorer(the new one) ad task manager.
I swear the Kindle seems faster..
Thanks again to all of y'all...It is so cool....here in Nashvegas....

Well, I'm glad that worked out after all. Since you're rooted, you can now follow and complete my guide to install a custom ROM. Just start at Step 2.

Just because you're too scared to trust the guide doesn't mean you have to spread that fear to other people with the desire to accomplish what the guide designates as the goal. The guide works.

[Q] Kindle Fire HD 7" - 7.4.6 - 7.2.3

Trying to install the 2nd bootloader and TWRP onto my Kindle Fire HD 7", and came across a thread that had pretty intensive steps, so i followed these and everything seemed to be going through great with no problems. One of the steps was to Restore the Kindle to 7.2.3, to then allow the installation of the 2nd Bootloader using FireFlash and to install TWRP.
I ran the KFA program and selected the representing option, and it downloaded the System Images and prompted me to continue at certain steps, and everything seemed to have worked perfectly fine, no problems at all. The final step was to hard reset and then boot the Kindle back up and then check to make sure the Kindle was now on 7.2.3, and if it was I then needed to disable OTA Updates.
However, after doing all this and hard resetting the Kindle, it is still on 7.4.6 even though KFA said that everything had worked perfectly fine and that everything was successful. Tried it again making sure I followed every step to the letter and I have been presented with the same outcome.
Anyone have any advise they can give to overcome this problem, as I really don't know where i'm going wrong, if I am at all
Thanks

Kindle Fire First Aide has some some recent problems. If your are trying to restore, use your fastboot cord or make sure to have this tool boot your tablet into fastboot using regular USB cord and use this restore tool.

does anyone know or have the link to the CLI code which can be used to flash the 2nd bootloader and install TWRP, I already have the needed files downloaded to do so, just don't know all of the code needed, most of it is common command and trigger knowledge, but unsure on some of the nitty gritty coding through cmd
Thanks

Un-Root Back to Stock

I am having a ridiculous amount of trouble with my kindle. I had rooted it and was swapping through roms quite frequently trying to find something I liked. Somewhere along the way something got messed up. I just want to wipe it completely and start fresh. No root. I have looked for several hours on the web and cant seem to find anything. I need a barney style breakdown step by step with all download links and everything. I get the basics but the terminology gets confusing. Thanks in advance.

So... I cant get it to go into fastboot. Using Kindle Fire Utility version 0.9.6 it shows online 4000. When i try to get it to go to fastboot it sits at Activating Fastboot <4002> and does nothing else. Any ideas?

Why are you using Kindle Fire utility? Do you wish to turn your Kindle into a paperweight? KFU is for first generation only. You need a fastboot cord. Hold the powerbutton down on the KIndle for 20 seconds until the Kindle powers off? Plug the fastboot cord into a USB port and then into the Kindle. The Kindle should power on and show fastboot on the screen. Is this what it does?
Edit: Or are you using a first generation Kindle and posting in a Kindle Fire HD 7 thread?

[Q] Bricked my Kindle Fire HD 2013 KFSOWI

Hi Folks!
I think i made a big mistake.
I used Kindle Fire First Aide on my device and now I'm stuck in Fastboot mode.
From what i read now, i used the wrong Version (Option "Completely Restore the KFHD 7 7.2.3") wich is for older Kindles.
I looked for the Stock Images for this Model, but couldn't find them....
Is there a way to fix it or do i have to contact Amazon?
Can Amazaon reconstruct my mistake and avoid the warranty?
Thank's l lot for guiding a prat....

That method should work. It flashes a small system image with some stuff removed i think, then it pushes a update onto the device that then updates it to a full os. Should work like it did on the other devices it was tested on, i'm assuming that utility should also flash the correct bootimg and recovery as well. Without the right bootimg it wouldn't probably bootup enough for the procedure to finish.

i tried kyle-berry's files but it didnt boot up after that.. had to use an old boot.img

I haven't downloaded his tool to checkout his script and see how it runs. Does it flash the old boot image we were using or does it not flash the boot partition at all?
