I have been developing for the Kindle Fire HD 7 for a while and now it has been bricked. I need help making a fastboot cable. Can anyone talk to me over Google Plus chat or something? I need help making this fastboot cable.

My 5yr old son was playing with a stock kindle fire and brought it to me saying it stopped working. He was correct because now it is stuck in a boot loop at the kindle logo. Is there anything I can do to fix it. Sorry in advanced if this has been a topic before, at work not much time to search. Any help would be appreciated thanks
You need a fastboot cable and the system restore utility. Here's a link to the utility:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254
Once u have a fast boot cable just ignore step 2 on that link, its kinda confusing but your fast boot cable basicly does what step 2's commands do, but those commands require the kindle to be fully booted.
Also wanted to check since I have seen a few rogue posts, is this a kindle fire 7", 8.9", or kf2., or somehow a kf1? That link I used is for HD 7" so if its another kindle please tell me or it will brick it further.

Ok i have a Kindle Fire HD 8.9 bricked.. turns on to the kindle fire screen and stays there....
what i have done so far::
1. tried the factory cable with KFHD_SRTv1.3.5 and KFHD_SRT_v2.1
my computer recon. the kindle fire and i can do enable fast boot from KFHD i see the kindle screen goes black then the kindle fire screen comes back up and stays...
2. KFHD_SRTv1.3.5 - option 3,4,5 all work but 1,2 say the failed remote data to large
3. KFHD_SRT_v2.1 - option 1,4 works..2,3 say the failed remote data to large
4. Kindle_Fire_Utility_v0.9.6 won't even work says ADB Status: Offline
am i doing something wrong ??? i am using windows 7
Don't use kindle fire utility on a kfhd u can hard brick it..
I am a bit unsure as to exactly what is going on, did you get it into fastboot mode because it doesn't sound like you did. Keep in mind factory cable isn't the cable your kindle came with, I call them fastboot cables so as not to confuse people with that term. If it is in fastboot mode your kindle should say fastboot in big letters on the screen. If it does get into fastboot and your having this error then I suggest checking to make sure your fastboot drivers are installed since kfu said its offline. Seriously though don't use kfu it can hard brick your device. On another note I just remembered you said this is a kf8.9. If you have adb laying around I suggest running the command on the system restore utility instructions. Then plug your kindle in and power it on, it should go into fastboot from what I have heard about 8.9 inch kindles.

Hi,
I have a brand new Kindle Fire HD Modell number P48WVB4 with 11.3.2.1 installed and I want to root it.
But I have the problem that the device won't boot into fastboot.
I have built a fastboot cable where i jumpered pin 1 and 4.
When I plug in the cable it starts but not in fastboot modus.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
Something with the fastboot cable wasn't soldered right probably, must guessing, not trying to put your skills down or anything. If you are interested in buying one, here's a nice inline adapter: http://shop.teamblackhat.info/Factory-Adapters-motadapt.htm
