It's a cable that forces the Kindle into fastboot mode everytime when you power it on with it attached, that's it's purpose & can't be used for charging.
Some of them look just like a normal cable, I got one the other day & it doesn't look like the quality of the official Amazon cable but most unsuspecting users would just think it's a 3rd-party charging/data cable.

So my cousin gave me his HP TouchPad to fix because it didnt boot up, he had gotten it from someone and it worked for a while as he stated but than it died and now it woulndt turn on. It's a 16bg i believe and i have searched the forums so i did try a few tricks. When i hold the power button it gives me the low battery and right after it, the white connect to power logo. It shuts off afterwards. When i connected to the computer straight away, it gives the low battery and says to charge reliably use the original cables and so fort, then it shuts off. Anyone can help me with this please?
Thank You
did you try to charge it with the original charger?
Bad charging cables are known to cause this problem.
Well I have the USB cable it came with but not the wall charger. Tried cables from my galaxy s 4g, blackberry and few other cables that fit it. Nothing. Tried apple wall charger and Samsung wall charger still nothing. U know where I can buy the originals for it?

You need that hp charger or one that puts outt the same juice 5.3v=2.0A it wont charge on the computers usb port.
It will charge with a 1 amp charger(iPhone;htc wall usb) albeit slowly.
Definately test another cable, find the highest rated USB charger you can, ????, profit!
Well thanks for the replies. I just got home from work and it was connected to the usb port all day, now i took my iphone chargers end and connected it into the power strip and connected the usb. Any idea where i can find the originals or ones that work for this touchpad. When ever power connects to it, low battery comes up showing little bit left with red and it says connect originals if u want the most reliable charging..

also a nice addition to have is the touchstone charger, yet they run about 40 bucks..you can check one out at tiger direct or flebay.
well thank you and i will keep you guys updated. ordered the original one today.

I have almost the same problem, my Kindle loads "Kindle Fire" logo and does not go into fastboot by factory cable. It does not appear in the devices in w7x64 (adb drivers is installed).
I found a reason why didn't work fastboot - bad quality of cable. Try to make new.
You can check your wire,
Pin 1 should go to pin 4..
For a fast boot cable that's 5 volts to pin four
For an on the go cable I believe pin 4 goes to ground pin 5
I have to wonder if these poor cables we are hearing about are otg cables

Hi All,
My kindle fire hd 7 (Model number X43Z60) has I think gone completely caput.
Here are the symptoms:
When I plug it into the power supply (including connecting it to the computer) the kindle fire logo comes on and then it disappears (no 'ping' noises on windows to show it's connected).
So I spent most of today building a factory cable and succed and now can get it into fastboot mode, BUT this time the kindle logo comes on and then the fastboot logo and then it dies switches of again.
However I DO get the windows ping noise this time and windows does detect something. But it then switches off and disconnects from the PC.
Fortunately I have enough time to be able to flash boot.img and recovery.img (they are about 8kb so very small), but not enough time to flash system.img using the KFHD_SRTv1.3.5 tool.
Also just now I have managed to get usb id of the device that it comes up as, it comes up under device manager as Android ADB Interface with a usb id of 1949:0007
How can I fix this kindle? Why does it simply switch off after a few moments?

Seems you're looping. I would get another fastboot cord and make sure that's not the issue. A fastboot cord is suppose to keep the tablet energized. If it does not, then IO would inspect the USB port on the tablet for a loose soldier joint.

I didn't have a 1k ohm resistor - do I actually need that between vcc and pin 4? I'll double check the cable now.

I didn't use one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2207122 You may be dropping the voltage to much. Test the voltage output, should be 5 volts (think)

Voltage appears fine, drops to 4.8 once the screen is on then jumps to about 5.05 - 5.20

The Kindle should stay powered in fastboot as long as the voltage is present. If not, then there may be an issue with the USB port or something with the software.

I just removed all the connectors on the mobo once I removed the battery one and plugged in the charger it appears to power on (not fully) but I get a android recovery screen asking me to reboot or reset to defaults.
I think I just need to flash the system.img and then it should be fine.
One more question - why are there TWO system.img files in the KFHD_SRTv1.3.5.zip file from this thread:

Yes - I cracked the case open!
Anyway it's now fixed! The cable was a bit dodgy too one of the pins was being pushed back when I plugged it into the micro usb port!
Thanks for your help dude
For anyone else that sees this I basically following the following steps:
flashed boot.img
flashed recovery.img
flashed system.img
Using fastboot -i xxxxxx boot/recovery/system etc

Good to see it working. Yea, that happened when I slapped my first cord together too. Worked great until I plugged it in lol.
I have an Amazon Kindle Fire HD 7 inch tablet. I tried to install cm10 and it would only boot about every four tries so I decided to go back to the Amazon OS. After I flashed it back with the srt tool, it now only boots with kindle fire logo for about four seconds and blinks the logo again in a bootloop. I bought a usb fastboot cable. I bout the n2a cable that was recommended in the forum but it still boots the same thing while plugged in. Am I out of options? Thanks in advance.
I forgot to mention it's the kindle 2012 version.

Hold the power button for 30 seconds until it powers off. Now plug the Factbook cord into the tablet and now you USB port. The tablet should energize into Factbook mode automatically.

Thanks for the reply. That's what I've tried to no avail. I've even removed the back and unplugged the battery to make sure it was off. It turns on to the kindle fire logo even still. I have the motorola/kindle fire fast boot cable. I would purchase scoprn's cable but I don't want to waste my money if it's not the cable. The fast boot cable I bought was used by others users in this forum successfully. It's weird though, everyone seems to suggest that if it boots and is showing something then it's not bricked. I just don't what my options are at this point.

I recomend the adapter by blackhat i think hashcode has posted in his 2nd bootloader thread, goes in between a normal cable and the plug on the kindle.

Thanks for the suggestion. That's the one I purchased over the weekend. Hope it works.
Hi there! Well, my fire is running fire nexus ROM, and my problem is that the tablet neither charges nor detects any USB connection. I can use it while plugged to ac adapter but when I run an app with high CPU load it will shut off. It doesn't even show plugged and charging. When I connect it to the computer there is not any notification to choose USB modes. So I cannot revert to stock since it won't be detected and if I use flash fire it might power off and brick it... Is this a hardware issue? Can the charge system be bypassed?

Almost certainly a hardware or cable issue. Swap cables to eliminate the latter. Also look for bent/missing pins in the USB port. Contact Amazon for a courtesy exchange if still under warranty.
I tried many cables, and sent it to repair, but didn't change at all. Thanks for your reply. So I was thinking about a way of charging it externally
