Hey geniuses, i have a KFHD 7". i ran the KFHD_SRT kit to downgrade my kindle to 7.2.3 na dgain root access.
i am proficient enough in cmd prompt to use adb and fastboot.
i have attempted to install:
2nd bootloader
TWRP
Kinology
CM10
and aosp
using fastboot i get no errors, everything installs and/or flashes correctly.
When i change the bootmode and attempt to boot recovery, i see the orange KF logo for a split second, then the screen shows totally red, with no reaction at all. all i can do is go back to fastboot and run the SRT to reload 7.2.3
i have followed several different guides (though there is little to no difference between them) i never get an error. i only ever get the red screen.
Has anyone else had this problem? the only red screens ive seen have been on devices that were not rooted or altered at all, and the devices is usually totally bricked (though most people dont know about the fastboot cable, so probably not)
can anyone give me a beginning to end walkthrough for ANY rom with s/w ver. 7.2.3 OR 7.3.1?
*edit* i did just realize that hashcodes 2nd bootloader says 8.9" only but every 7" rom page links me to that bootloader
*edit edit* i found and tried the 7" bootloader, and have the same problem
When you came from 7.3.1 a downgrade to 7.2.3 is not enough. You also have to downgrade the bootloader back to 7.2.3.
The 7.3.1 bootloader includes a fix that if you install freedomboot it will cause a redscreen due to the new verification Amazon put into their new bootloader.
Go to Hashcode's thread about the second bootloader for 7"
And read thoroughly, since you have the red screen, you will need a fastboot cable to fix it

Ah! that makes sense. i did try that that guide and the freedom boot wouldnt flash. it gave me the max. d/l size then failed listing "no error"
I will follow it again on 7.3.1 and post my results. Thank you for your help
Kffirstaide
I downloaded and ran the KF FIRST AIDE tool and it worked like a charm on all features, until i run bootloader + twrp install.
everything runs succesfully and it reboots to red screen of death.
i did do a factory reset first.
as much success as is had with that toolkit i thought for sure it would be a breeze.
if i have time today ill try the manual flash again
You still haven't flashed the 7.2.3 u-boot, that's why you get the red screen. You MUST flash the 7.2.3 u-boot file (the 7.2.3 bootloader, this will get rid of the red screen) before installing TWRP. It's found in Hashcode's bootloader thread.
semi-success
AH! man do i feel stupid. i didnt realize the toolkit d/g'd everything BUt the bootloader.
I am now running TWRP, but when i flashed the CM10.1 rom it boot loops. i have re-downloaded and reflashed.
Now im really just wondering if anyone else has this issue before i flash Kinology

When you move from stock to CM10.1, you have to wipe and format EVERYTHING including the two caches (except the sdcard, of course). The reason lies with the kernel.

i did. actually i believe i have found my error. there is a POST flash zip after the rom that i thought was the kernel alone.
im downgrading the kindle now, and trying again. otherwise ill give the kinology rom a try, though i was more interested in CM or paranoid
Does anyone know of a quick way to check the current bootloader version installed? (other than about device, which lists total rom ver.)

SUCCESS!
finally.
simple kfhd7 romming. (assuming you have a factory cable)
download KF First Aide from XDA and full downgrade to 7.2.3, then root.
run TWRP & bootloader option.
kindle should boot to red screen. if so, power off and reboot fastboot.
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader ../kfhd 7.2.3 bootloader
Thanks for all of your help
wanted to convert my HD7 into full android and got red screen in process. have read dozens of threads so far no help.
have fastboot cable, and I can get my kindle screen to say fastboot kindle fire - but I cannot seem to get the proper driver installed on my Win8 so that I can use fastboot. I've downloaded and installed numerous drivers. So far my kindle will not communicate with my computer, thus I cannot move forward in any way. I have installed ADB and SDK on my computer. I have scoured internet for ideas, helps. I am STUCK. Any help greatly appreciated!
Try the driver on my signature, but take note you are on windows 8, you can't install the driver by default because windows 8 won't allow unsigned drivers, you have to boot windows 8 up with driver signature enforcement disabled. Google disabling that and I think it may be the root of your problems.

Thanks! I think it worked. I still can only see my kindle in device manager, but I ran the SR Tool.bat option to check fastboot and it said it finished. of course my kindle won't reboot or anything because the bootloader is messed up. so now I am on a quest looking for steps to flash something with fastboot so that my kindle will actually reboot and then I can take steps toward a completely new ROM. obviously I'm learning as I go. I'll start reading more threads, feel free to point me in the right direction if you want. thanks again!

Do the part at step after where it says added 04/02, and please make sure you check the md5sum of the file before flashing, if it doesn't match up you will have a hard brick. Just Google "md5sum windows" if you don't know how to calculate a md5sum on windows. There's freeware available to do it.

I've read threads and answers to the point now that I'm going in circles. No one seems to address my problem. I am in fastboot. It appears I can flash things onto my kindle. I got the "kfhd7-u-boot-prod-7.2.3.bin" file on my kindle and got rid of the red screen. but I cannot get a recovery screen on my kindle. it just says kindle fire (fire is in orange). I press the power and volume up button and nothing. I go back to the beginning, read more threads. argh! it doesn't seem to be bricked. I just can't get a new bootloader to run so that I can flash a new rom. argh help!
You can't get into twrp anymore be cause we had to restore the stock boot loader, now u just need to reflash the system image and it should boot up, might need the boot image as well, but I think that kfsrt restores both of those, just put it in fastboot again and start the process.

It was a long haul but finally got out of the loop. thanks for your help! the final step that got me out of the ditch was to download and use the KFHD_SRT_v1.3.5- 7.3.0, then I ran #3 restore-factory recovery. I learned a lot through the process about fastboot and flashing files. For now I'm rooted with factory launcher and some other options too. I still think I want to wipe it and make it totally android.
Thoughts or recommendations? and thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
Well there are a fair amount of ROMs out, I use a tablet ui cm ROM that jester originally made, but when he went straight to cm 10.2 I wasn't ready so I made my own patch for cm 10.1 latest update with tablet ui, if your interested check the link in my signature out, though u need to put twrp back on again.

I posted this late last night after spending hours troubleshooting so sorry for the lack of details.
I thought I followed the instructions to a t on this thread. The only step I skipped was backing up my data. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848
When my Kindle Fire HD booted, it would loop between the regular Kindle Fire logo and the Blue logo. Eventually it would then go to TWRP. Once in TWRP I tried numerous times to use the Boot Option, Restore Option, and Recovery option to no avail. When I selected Bootloader, I would get the fastboot logo and it would stall there. I had to hard reset to get it to start again. Every time I connected my Kindle to the fastboot cable and entered the ADB or fastboot commens, it would say waiting on device. I also tried using the Factory Restore tool below and that did not work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254
When I connected the Kindle Fire HD to the PC, sometimes it would show as Android Device and other times it showed as PVT-8 or something to that effect.
Here is where I am now. The Kindle Fire HD no longer can boot to TWRP. It just looks the normal Kindle Fire logo and it loops indefinitely. My PC can no longer see the Kindle Fire HD at all. Is this a true brick or do I still have a chance?
BTW, I have multiple micro USB cables for all the devices I use. I am pretty sure the one I am using is the factory. How can I confirm this is a fastboot cable?
How did you get back to an orange only boot loop, it was easy to fix when it was blue... If it only is orange you are probably going to need a fastboot cable. Oh and to satisfy you with an answer as to why it boot looped, its because the newer amazon os detects the older boot loader or twrp, and refuses to boot, so you have to have a ROM ready to flash on the sdcard ahead of time.

Thanks. Anyway to confirm that the cable I have is a fastboot cable? Also, how would I go about performing a repair if it is.
If its a fastboot cable you would know it because you bought it for such occasions and because as soon as you plug it into the kindle it says fastboot in big letters. Once you have it in fastboot use kindle fire first aid and try a system reflash, I'm sure it would boot up without a doubt if you used an older version of the Amazon os, like I think 7.4.2 or older, but I don't know what version kffa uses, so if it still doesn't boot after doing that, try using the kindle fire system restore tool.

Thank you. Much appreciated. I ordered one from Amazon but will see about making one myself.
Are you trying to boot into Stock Amazon OS? That's your issue. Download a ROM and proper Google Apps package and either put them on your SD Card by mounting USB Storage in TWRP, or sideload flash a ROM, then you'll boot without issue. Don't forget to factory reset and wipe /system beforehand! I had this same issue my first time.

Why option 1? That is a different version of the tablet. You want to run KFFA and select 'completely restore the KFHD 7 7.2.3' This should be #3 of KFFA.
So once you have the tablet in fastboot, just run KFFA and go from there. Some files will download and then KFFA will push them onto your tablet. After that, your tablet will be stock and you can root and remove OTA updates from there. Keep an eye on your computer screen as the script will tell you what's going on.

Members,
I need your help for my KINDLE fire 7 " HD stuck at bootlogo. I just came back from work and switched on my KINDLE but it booted and got stuck at 'KINDLE FIRE' boot logo. I tried every possible troubleshooting method, like giving hard reset but nothing works. It switches ON and gets stuck at the LOGO. Going by the forums I know that I need a fastboot cable which I have already ordered and expecting the delivery.
Can you plz guide me how to proceed once I have the cable with me ?
Thanks in advance for your time.

Fastboot cord uses fastboot commands while in fastboot. This is the link to Kindle Fire FirstAid http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096888 Once you follow the steps for setup and run it, you will choose number 3 to go back to 7.2.3 When asked if you want to reboot into fastboot, choose no because you are in fastboot.
You can use the regular USB to get into fastboot mode but not now that you are in a bootloop. After running KFFA to restore to 7.2.3 you will also use it to root and remove OTA updates then install gapps or if you are going to go custom romm with 2nd bootloader and TWRP recovery, skip gapps and move on to the latter. Do NOT use KFFA to install TWRP/2nd bootloader or any ROM. Use FireFlash.

So you're saying that you had a bootloop and you ran Kindle Fire FirstAide. Which numbers/options did you press? Plugging that fastboot cord in will power your Kindle Fire HD and send it into fastboot no matter the battery charge. Where did you get the fastboot cord from? A reliable source? I'm only asking because if the battery were low and the wire that connects pins 1 to 4 (think) that energize the Kindle into fastboot mode are somehow faulty, then this would stop the kindle from going into fastboot. However, if the fastboot cord is working, it would seem you have a hard brick. I will look around to see if there is a solution for this.

Thanks for help mate. I bought it from amazon and it seemed to be the most reliable source http://www.amazon.com/EarlyBirdSavi...ywords=kindle+factory+cable&tag=s601000020-20
I firstly reboot the bootloader couple of times like people suggested me. When that didn't help I restored it and like i gave a detail in other post that it took fair amount of time like 45 mins of reading and writing the .img files. Even the message was prompted that 'Your kindle has been restored to 7.2.3, the only thing is that all this while the display of my Kindle didn't changed and was fixed on 'Fastboot Kindle fire' logo. I was disappointed with this device from start due to that crappy kindle OS which made it way too slow and things kept freezing and crashing all the time. Since I am in colombia and used a freight service for this cable to be delivered, i ended up paying 30 USD for the cable. I don't think I will be sending it for repair , it just don't worth it the expenses for the repair and the shipping cost from Colombia and vice versa. May be will keep experimenting and looking on XDA if at some point of time hard brick issue could be fixed.

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, I can't turn ADB debugging on because there is no way to get access to the menu system. Is there another manner of fastbooting and of reflashing image you can possibly recommend to bypass not having access to the launcher? Again thanks in advance!
I'm not sure what is possible via fb other than adb. Try googling flash factory image & see what you find. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Hi im having problems with my kindle fire hd 2nd gen. I rooted and installed cm12 or 13 on it and it was working well but i lost root so i flashed Supersu through twrp now my device is bootlooping on the amazon fire boot screen. I couldn't get into fastboot so bought a fastboot cable which has arrived today (2 weeks from china) now when i plug it in the device goes into fastboot mode but my windows 10 shows it in device manager as Other Devices Tate -pvt-08. I cant issue commands through ADB (adb devices just shows nothing connected) if i enter the getvar command i just get waiting for device. I've reinstalled the kindle device driver and still no joy.
I also made a complete backup of my kindle before i rooted it which i have stored safely. but i need to know how i can push them to my kindle and how to make my laptop see the kindle.
I'm struggling now and pretty lost with it all if someone could lend a hand and tell me what im doing wrong

I'm struggling now and pretty lost with it all if someone could lend a hand and tell me what im doing wrong

cant remember what i did tbh, ive just fired my kndle up first time in a while and the rom im using is Omni Rom 6.0 its old (2016) but works. i remember using adb to push backed up partition images and literally started from scratch. Not much help but it was quite some time ago
thinking of trying this rom at some point as its 2018

Hey guys im kinda new to this forum. i came here cuz im having a problem with installing a 2nd bootloader on my kfhd 7. i rolled back the version to 7.2.3 and then attempted to install twrp via cmd prompt and tru fireflash. both method resulted in a bootloop with no blue logo. it appears to me as if the processes corrupt the boot file thus causing the bootloop. i restored the kindle with KFHD SRT v1.3.0 and attempted these processes again. as we say in Trinidad and Tobago... FAILIAR (Fail-e-ah)...lol...any help would be appreciated...

interesting, i would assume with no redscreen that you either didn't apply the stack override or didn't flash the freedomboot image, or something else inbetween. It's always a good idea to check the md5sum's of the freedomboot, and recovery images, and espeically the bootloader, but i am not sure if you downgraded the bootloader or not yet, just because of the behavior your getting in the process. If fire flash doesn thave red warning text your fine.
Hey thanks for your help... You were right I didn't apply the stack right... I got it now.... Running cm10.2. BTW where can I get themes for this os?
