Bootloop after fireflash - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I followed this guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1bLCuQN0-U&feature=youtube_gdata_player which let me install boot image and twrp from the fire flash app, when it was done i rebooted into recovery and made a nandroid, then when i hit reboot system it bootlooped only orange kindle fire again and again and i can't get into recovery by pressing vol up. Any advice?
EDIT: i made a mistake and i didn't click apply stack override, I'm thats why its bootlooping. I ordered a factory cabel but is there any way i can fix it before it arrives?

Unfortunately no, you are going to have to wait for a fastboot cord. Use the kindle Fire System restore tool in the OP of the FireFlash thread and go from there. Make sure to download SDK tool kit and get fastbot/ADN going in the mean tome. If you get stuck, "reply" to me here and I'll help you. Hold the power button down on your Kindle for 25 seconds until your Kindle powers off and let it be until your cord arrives.

Yea, they ship pretty fast. I bootlooped my tablet four times before I got it right the fist time. That was before some other things were known about the patched firmware from Amazon. Your tablet will be fine

Yea because you can either use fastboot manual commands from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848 or let this tool do it for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254 flashing the boot.img that is.

Stuck in CWM, FROZEN.

I was installing the MIUI rom on the Nook when I had a lot of FC's. rebooted into recovery using the SC card, and wiped data. After doing that, it is now stuck in CWM, I cannot navigate or reset the device. I pulled the back cover off, and I see that the battery is not removable. I have held down power, click variations of all buttons, and it is still stuck. Any ideas? My google searches have not resulted in a similar issue, just people who can flash CWM but cant get out of it...
Ideas?
smacked it hard. Rebooted. Fixed. (Sort of...)
Press and hold the N button and the Power button for more than 30 seconds, release the power button when you see a flash light on the screen, keep holding the N button.
Play around combination of these 2 buttons until you get the Factory Reset then perform it.

Wow, the exact same thing happen to me, going back to CM.....too bad cuz I love MIUI on my Evo.
OK. Well, I can flash Roms, but I've been having issues with CWM. If I wipe ANYTHING, either factory reset, cache, or davlik cache, it simply locks up.
I'm downloading the stock software with root, and I am going to try again to install MIUI without wiping. Feel free to chime in with any ideas in the mean time.
Thanks guys!

What CM are you using? I tried CM and I had no luck. My EVO LOVES MIUI... My NOOK is hating me. It will LOAD, but can't download anything from the market. Tired flashing a rooted Rom:
http://theunlockr.com/2011/02/01/nook-color-v1-1-1-rooted-rom/
Happy UPDATE!
Tried doing a factory reset from the pushin n button, and it did it, loaded into MIUI, and everything is DANDY.... I don't know how I even did it, but that did it.
MIUI is up and running!
You might want to ensure you have the most up to date version of CWR and rom manager. There have been horror stories of folks getting stuck in bootloop hell because of this. Just saying.....

Thanks for that, I followed a method that supplied instructions for the 1.2 version that mine had, so I assumed (aparently rightfully so... lol) that link to CWR would be the right one.

Ever do something you shouldn't have whilst hacking away at your phone, and end up stuck in a bootloop? Of course you have, because we all have. That will soon be a thing of the past, thanks to the Team Hydro Bootmanager. Usually getting to your Android device's bootloader menu or recovery menu involves mashing and holding buttons, pulling batteries, or in the case of some phone (looking at you LG Optimus Black) a bit of luck because there are no button combinations that work. This jewel resides in the boot image on your phone, pauses the boot-up, and lets you choose how you want to proceed. According to lead developer Drew Walton, it works great, it's stable, will run on just about any phone, and will be ready for public consumption very soon.
*Spoiler alert* Drew is also pretty sure he will be able to expand this, using custom recovery builds (like ClockWorkMod recovery) and create a bootmanager with more options. This would of course be more device specific and less portable, but offer a new way to manage your device. You normal, well adjusted users out there may not be as excited as we hacker types are, but all you crack flashers know just how cool this one will be. I can't wait!

Awesome feature indeed...
This developer wants to call in our black Custom Recovery by a combination of keys?
This is very good, if it would be.
There's no need to press any keys at boot...
You have only to reboot and select recovery, like grub or lilo...
The question would be, is there a timer to boot into the default choice?
Regards.
Yeap much like LILO or GRUB in linux, built in boot.img and it seems the bootmanager menu always loaded before other thing, so you can easily recover or select other system setup, and about timer it costumizeable i think. Cmiiw.
try contact the developer, the one in the photo is optimus s. I'm hoping this feature integrated to our roms or mods, and bricking, bootloop, stuck nightmare will be gone forever
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
The best solution is to put it into bootloader of the phone which can't be erased (by full wipe) and should always works just like SW Upgrade option.
I think it's more hardware-specific, not software so I think we couldn't add that to our P970's. CMIIW.
For me it looks basically the same as Huexxx's eRecovery for Nova/CM7 but don't need keypress and can be erased with wipe, so it's bad...

Yes boot.img i've mentioned cannot be flashed via recovery. You need a higher root level to do it. I don't know how but this hack surely injected to bootmanager and it loads everytime your device power on. Team Hydro haven't released the detail how this hack works. Hopefully soon

It's not esay to brick this phone, try liti15 advice and for sure you'll bring the p990 back to life.
Best way like liti15 said before is this toolkit, nearly unbricks everything
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737
Read the instructions first.
I recommend first to look up the Dev Forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1002) and select a ROM to use.
Look up in it´s thread what Bootloader is needed and flash (Option 4 or 8 in All-in-One Tool).
go to CWM on your device and flash ROM as usual (maybe ask here if you need help, or look up how to flash a ROM )
flash additional stuff if needed (gapps, ...)
reboot, there you go
Thank you

Dont be afraid. Had this many times. Forget recovery, you only reset your phone by computer. Do t forget to remove battery and press VOL UP and DOWN before connecting your phone via USB cable in to your motherboard.
Your phone will be ok in 5 mins

[Q] Partial brick on SGH-i897? I can't find any help I DID SEARCH

Hey guys I need a little help, well okay A LOT of help with my old captivate I had been running Serendipity VII ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1107894&highlight=serendipity ) on it for almost a few months then loaned the phone to a friend when I got my S3 after about 6 months the boot loops started then after it bootlooped one last time and went black, the device wouldn't charge or do anything really. I could get it into download mode and I think recovery, I tried flashing back to stock and now it boots but after the purple/blue S screen it goes black and nothing happens except the capacitive lights turn on. I made a video showing this I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what is wrong. I think something very important got deleted. Thanks in advance!

Seems indeed like the sd is dead.
Do you have a external sd that you could use to boot on? I'm not sure if would work but worth giving a try.

I wouldn't know how to go about even setting that up to boot from extSD. I have another "broken" captivate. One of the color correction resistors (i think) came off the board so not the screen is yellow but still manageable. Maybe I can use my reflow station and get something going by making a frankenstein phone.

The internal sd is within your motherboard so if you can swap the MB from one to another, it should work!

It works!
Will I have to add this line every time there's a new update, or can it be added to the official nightlies?
Edit: I may have spoken too soon. My device was rebooting relentlessly. It would show the "Welcome to CM" screen, then google things would crash, rinse, repeat all in about 10 seconds. Then it went to just showing the boot animation. I managed to turn it off using pwr&vol+, but it somehow encrypted itself. Spooky.
Edit 2 (The return of edit): I forgot to wipe /data. No more crashing now, though my question about the updater-script above still stands.
