[Q] Bricked (?) Device - Cannot Access - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Now firstly i must apologise as through my own stupidity i've left myself in a bit of a mess.
I was successfully rooted but was planning on returning my device (Fire HD 7") so i went about trying to remove all traces of being rooted. The situation i am in now is that after a factory reset i am left with the regular android launch screen, the same you would get when you turn an android phone on for the first time. The trouble is am in is when i press start so as to start the setup process this errors out as i had removed the google setup wizard.apk "Setup Wizard has stopped"
Is there any way i can rescue the device?

[Q] Stumped my captivate will not boot

Well I thought I bricked my Captivate.... I have been told that you cannot do so. well here is my situation.
I just purchased a Samsung Captivate, I unboxed it today and got everything up and running. While installing I had a problem, the first few apps I loaded on went smooth. I added Facebook, Twitter, LastPass, Prey and I updated Google Maps all with no problem. I then attempted to install Shazam and before the installation could complete there was an error message which I did not have time to write down before the device power cycled. Immediately after the device rebooted all the AT&T splash screen loaded and then the screen went blank for a few seconds and then unfortunatly that cycle repeated splash screen then black. The battery was not fully charged however I did not get a low battery indicator however I did place the phone on the charger until it said 100% on the green battery that comes on the screen. I once again attempted to bootup to the same screen/reboot process. So I did some research of my own and figured out how to load the Samsung Recovery Utils so I held both the up and down buttons and pressed power voila system recovery I think I'm on the right track. Having just gotten the phone and only loading one contact into it so far I determine that I should delete all user data. I attempted this and wiped the device followed by a reboot. Upon powering back up the same screen/reboot process begins again.
SO I then attempted to reload the factory boot rom with no success... I have installed the drivers and connected to the device in recovery mode. I have used Odin3 1 click Installer. It successfully copied the files to the device I connected everything in download mode yet still am unable to boot my device
HELP!!! LOL Thanks in advance
Sound like a defective phone.I would take it back if I were you. From what I understand you haven't rooted or anything so you should be fine.
Sent from my phone so excuse the spelling errors

[Q] process android

I have a rooted Gt-P1000 it crashed and now right from factory reset it keeps saying process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. I can get onto the internet through going back through the initial set up screen after reset. I can also download something to get a download failed to get to my files. All system files fail to restore.
I have no working menu settings and process android fault constantly appears. I also get process.com.android.setupwizard has unexpectedly stopped. I have searched the internet and found no answers.
I went and bought a new pad only to find z4root does not work any more. And oneclick is an unopenable file!
Hence i have an unrooted pad that is as much use as a chocolate fireguard and a rooted one that is corrupt. The unrooted one is crap as i work in saudi and need to run market enabler, which wont run here unless routed. Please can someone give me an UPTODATE METHOD OF ROOTING, TELL ME HOW TO FIX FAULT, THANX!
Do a hard reset: switch off the tab and boot into recovery by holding volume up and power button. choose factory reset.

[Q] ME70CX Restored factory settings, now Setup Wizard crashes.

So I bought a ME70CX yesterday, and the first thing I did was root & debloat it. Unfortunately I removed Google Play services while at it, and discovered Play Store wouldn't work. So I restored to factory settings to recover the apps, and now I am stuck in the Setup Wizard, at the Wi-Fi part. When choosing a Wi-Fi to connect to, the tablet first tries to connect for 20-30 seconds before crashing, which restarts the wizard from the beginning. I have tried flashing with firmware, but it returns the error message "No detect APD image file. skip!" Followed by "Can't find image file". This causes the flash to fail.
So basically what I am looking for is an answer to the following questions:
Can I repair it? Can I uninstall the Setup in order to bypass it, or bypass it any other way?
Or a guide to flash firmware for this particular model.
Thanks

[Q] Forgot pattern lock

Hi, I assigned a pattern lock and I wanted to make a more complicated one.. and well, I simply forgot the stepps to it. So now, I can't unlock the phone, I kept trying all ways possible, after 5 failed attempts it tells me to wait 30 secconds. So I kept trying but I'm not getting a sign in with google promt, it just tells me to wait 30 more secconds. I tried pressing the soft reset button next to the sim tray and that didn't help.
Everything I found on google says that after 5 wrong attempts I'll be asked for my google id, but I'm not getting such a promt. I even went to Android device manager and tried to put a lock password to it but it says it already has one.
I'm on Lollipop by the way, 5.0.1
How do I get into recovery mode to factory reset it, I'm having trouble finding that too.
have you tried repairing the phone with the pc companion?
[pc companion => support zone => phone software update => repair my phone]
Doesn't Device Manager let you factory erase the phone?

Looping Language Select

Hey all I have a problem that is driving me insane, my wife has a kindle fire hd7 3rd generation and it was getting slow and not running the best so i performed a restore on it. This kindle has not been rooted (until now) or modded in any way save for sideloading google chrome using an apk. After the restore, I attempted to setup the system for her again, the first screen is the select a language screen, I select English (usa) and click continue, it flashes over to the desktop of the kindle and loops right back to pick a language again. I can stop it by quickly pressing apps after I hit continue. I went into setting and selected the language, connected to wifi and registered with my amazon account, done everything you would normally do and when i press the home screen it just loops right back to the language select again. Ive tried 3 recoverys since then, including using the vol - power way and still the same problem. I tried the kindle first aid kit and tried wiping user and data but it did not help. I cant enable fastboot or i would install cm12 on it if nothing else. She doesnt want it modded just working but at this point im lost. Ive followed every guide to enable fastboot so i can flash it with a factory restore rom using the first aid kit but to no avail. Any help is much appreciated, if you can get rid of this language screen that would be the perfect solution.
