I'm Bricked Help

I can put myself into fastboot. I can see my KFTT. The bootloader is broken, the recovery is broken, the boot image is broken. I am in need of drastic measures. There has to be someone that has figured this out. There must be a hardware way to access the storage as it is flash memory. Has someone figured this out? please help. Already tried firstaide I have tried everything on xda please help.

I can get to fastboot but it wont detected fastboot. It just sits there on the fast boot screen. I'm hoping for something a little more drastic.

Type "fastboot devices" when your device is in fastboot mode and is connected to the computer. If you see no line of crazy numbers and characters, you can't use fastboot mode, in which case, you have a fancy paperweight. Unless you're in warranty, in which case, contact Amazon for an exchange.

I dont think

Just attempted "fastboot devices" nothing said no internal or external command. Should i do this from adb shell? Where should i do this from? How should i run it? Maybe I'm doing it all wrong. Also they will be able to see that it was my fault since i have a blue Kindlefire logo....

Type "fastboot devices" and hit Enter.
You have the 2nd-bootloader installed? That won't do. You're stuck with the paperweight.

If you can still get the device into fastboot then you still have ways to fix your device. [Fastboot devices] will always show nothing. Use this cmd:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product
If nothing happens then you just have a driver issue. If you get a response saying "tate-something-something" Then you can proceed to using fastboot to reflash your backups or a backup.

You are amazing

My kindle is brick,too
My kindle fire hd 7" is bricked 3 hours ago. I was trying to install 2nd boot loader and twrp recovery for the first time. i made one mistake. I didn't check one box of fireflash1.1. So, after reboot, my kindle is showing red screen. i want to know whether i can get to fastboot with fastboot cable(i don't have one right now but i'll order or make one my own). Also, i want to know how you brick your kindle.

Yep, you can get to fastboot with a factory cable. I haven't used fire flash so I'm not sure what this red screen is, but the factory cable should work.

Kindle fire stuck in Bootloop

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.

Not to ring up the past...
But, I cannot get my kindle to work with adb to save my life.

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

[Q] KFHD Boots to Kindle Fire Logo then shuts down. Possible Brick?

Hello all so took it upon myself to try and help my father out with his tablet. Tried the steps outlined in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45946493&postcount=3004 The unit wasn't on the 7.2.3 bootloader so i proceeded to flash that before following the steps outline in that post. Not the tablet will try to boot but not stay on. Is there a way for me to save it or is it done?

Tried the following:
This relies on you having a working device (as long as it can boot at all, you're good). If you wish to enter fastboot mode to flash system images like new versions of TWRP or restore Amazon OS 7.2.3 if you've got freezing or bootloops, then you need a regular USB cable that came with the device, or any other mini-USB cable that fits the device and the computer. Again, you need to have Android SDK installed before you can use fastboot. Turn the device off, and leave it unplugged. Go to your computer, open command prompt, and type this:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product
Hit enter, and it should return with <waiting for device>. If it doesn't, your fastboot drivers aren't working. Install Android SDK and go from there. If it does, connect your turned-off Kindle to the computer. Two things will happen: one, the command prompt will show "Tate-xxx-xxx" (something there), and two, your Kindle should reboot into fastboot mode. To exit fastboot mode, after you finished flashing what you needed, type this:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
If you can fully boot into the ROM, you can use ADB to boot into fastboot, but you must still use the same command above to reboot out of fastboot mode. Then make sure ADB is turned on through settings, connect the device to the computer using a regular USB cable, and type this:
Code:
adb shell su -c "reboot bootloader"
And that's all for the basics! Let's move on to the actual process.

Still nothing the tablet boots to the logo and shuts down. Will i need to purchase one of the fastboot cables or a nexus 7?

If it's a kfhd 7" or kf2, then a fastboot cable is your best bet, the fastboot getvar product command only works on a 8.9" model unless you have 2nd boot loader on the other models.

Damn well that's better then having to pay for a new tablet. I put it on the charger after reading that it may be a charging issue. I know it only trickle charges through USB. It still does the same thing but where the screen would be black behind the kindle fire logo it is green with lines running through it. I will let it charge try again and then buy the cable if anything. Any other thoughts or ideas?

Uh I hope the boot loader isn't damaged too bad, I haven't heard of green lines going through it before, usually if something goes bad with the 2nd bootloader installation process(aka not downgrading first) it results in a red screen. This is probably due to a bad download of the boot loader, that's why it is always key to check the md5sum of the boot loader before you downgrade it.

Lines in the screens, good LCD screen not withstanding, are not good. Normally this is a firmware issue that required Amazon to send a replacement. Let's hope KFFA restores everything for you.

I let it charge overnight and booted it and it is still only booting to the kindle fire logo and shutting down. Luckily the screen is black now rather than the green I mentioned. So is my best course of action the fast boot cable and then KFFA? I will try the fastboot commands again when i get home. Is KFFA only going to help me in the sense of restoring the files or will it potentially help me with the fastboot process as well? The above method that I used with the fireflash 11 is that proper or should i be doing it some other way?

I personally think the fire flash method is the easiest, some people brick though because they don't follow the instructions properly, I don't think this was the case with you though. That kindle is more than likely not going to go into fastboot with commands, that typically is a 8.9" thing unless you have a successful flash of 2nd bootloader. I know kffa restores the system partition and recovery and boot, but I am unaware if it flashes the boot loader, and I am pretty sure you definitely need to reflash the bootloader since it had lines through it.

You must have a fastboot factory cord, not a regular USB. Watch this video to make sure you have your ADB driver set up right http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaNM-lt_aHw Use KFFA to restore to 7.2.3. Choose that option as Hashcode has a 7.2.3 boot.img that will match the firmware you will be using, reducing the chance or bootlooping a great deal.

If your going to use FireFlash, you can go to seokhun's thread and read uo on flashing the 2nd bootloader / TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271909
Some great info about this on Opemsystem's thread as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2347170
Hashcode's thread has the files you need to flash. If you choose 7.2.3, use boot.img 7.2.3 located right below step 4 of Hascodes thread. Not number 4 of step 2, but right below step 4 and the TWRP 2.6.1.0 in his original post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848

Amazon Kindle Fire HD Stuck In Fastboot Mode HELP !!!

Hi,
I moved into a new house yesterday and when un packing I found an Amazon Kindle Fire HD that was basically left behind I went to plug it in to my phone charger Micro USB and it began too boot up but then stopped at the Fastboot logo with Kindle Fire under it. Ive never had a Kindle Fire before so not really sure what to do tried connecting it to my Laptop but nothing shows up i.e installs etc. I don't know if it would be bricked or a software fault and tried Power and Volume Up and Down to see if there is a recovery system but they isn't.

It doesn't show up at all on the device manager with a triangle next to it listed as Tate,jem, otter,or otter 2 does it?
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire HD running CM10.1 Tablet UI using xda-developers app

when i plug my kindle in the pc it does show tate-pvt-08 in device manager and the kindle is stuck in fastboot mode.. any advice?

Right click the device, hit update drivers, download the drivers in my signature, and extract them, point the update device window to where you extracted my drivers and let it install them, if you are on windows 8 you will have to disable driver signature enforcement first. Once the drivers are installed I would suggest trying a simple
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
that might kick it out of fastboot. Tell me how it goes.

tried the driver but now in device manager the kindle has that yellow triangle and fastboot is stuck on waiting for device

Yellow triangle probably means the driver is still not installed...

Hello! First of all, i'm kind of a noob as far as kindle development issues concern, but i managed to install custom roms before (in fact, my brick problema began when i tried to upgrade to CM11 from goo.im). I am really desperate right now because i followed all the instructions in several threads but nothing helped me so far.
Here is my situation:
My kindle fire hd 7" is stuck at Fastboot mode after my failed attempt to upgrade from CM10.1 to CM11. My computer recognizes it as Tate-PVT-08 but it's not accepting any fastboot commands, except for "fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot". When i run this command, my kindle actually "reboots" but goes into fatboot mode again and again. When in "cmd", it doesn't recognize the devices either, but when run command "getvar" shows Tate-PVT-08. In conclusión, i want to know if there is a problema with the instalation of cmd in my PC, or if you can recommend any tool to restore my Tablet, even if it means going back to stock OS.
Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.

Are you using a fastboot cord? If so that's why. Use that command and then pull the cord from the computer as soon as it restarts.

Thank you for taking your time to help me out, appreciate it.
I changed the cord because i realized that i'm already in fastboot mode, so don't need fastboot cable. When i run the command, the Kindle boot logo lasts for few more senconds than with fastboot cable, but still goes into fastboot mode again. Also tried pushing all posible buttons (At blue kindle ffire logo) to reach recovery mode but failed. I'm using Kindle Fire First Aide but doesn't seems to work either.
Any toughts? Thank you.

If you see the blue TWRP there may be hope without a doing a factory reset. Press the power button for 30 seconds and power down the KFHD7. Now hit power to turn the Kindle on and as soon as you see the yellow Kindle boot animation hold the volume rocker up and continue to hold it there until until you see the blue TWRP boot animation and continue pressing for three seconds, then release. Do you boot into TWRP? If you see the blue TWRP boot animation you should have it.

If you can get into TWRP that might be to your advantage because you can adb.sideload a ROM onto TWRP flash it and go on with it from there. KFFA has been down off and on. It was once a great tool but it needs updated and the Drop Box account associated with it is down at the momnent.

Mr LinearEquation, thank you so much for your advice.
Following a different thread i managed to boot into TWRP by flashing images of "Freedom Boot" and TWRP itself via fastboot commands. Now in theory i can flash a .zip of any ROM but the thing is that i cannot load zips to the Tablet. even though it's recognized now as KINDLE instead of Tate-PVT-08 in the Device Manager, i'm not able to see the kindle as a Pop-up window where you can drag-and-drop files to the Tablet.
The question is: How do i push a ROM via adb as you mentioned in your previous message? Do you know which file do i need and the proper command to push it?
Kindly Regards.

Help! Mine was stuck in fastboot. When I hit the power button it boots up automatically in fastboot with any device attached to it. Then after a few sec it goes off.

Have you looked at this page? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271909 Maybe the unbricked section (part 6 of first page) can help in particular the SRT tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254 . I have also noticed if you scroll down to troubleshooting section on the first page of first link it lists your problem and the steps to resolve it

Thank you for the reply. Well, my first problem is the kindle doesn't stay on fastboot. It shuts down after a second.

recovery
Hi I locked mine up also and used a program called
Demo Mode Restore. Basically you shut off your kindle and unplug the charge/data cable run the program and click enter once then says plug you kindle in and when it boots the program catches it before it starts up and all you have to do is follow the directions and when it restarts its like when you first took it out of the box
You`ll have to do a search for Demo Mode Restore
Hope this help. God Bless )

I moved into a new house yesterday and when un packing I found an Amazon Kindle Fire HD that was basically left behind I went to plug it in to my phone charger Micro USB and it began too boot up but then stopped at the Fastboot logo with Kindle Fire under it. Ive never had a Kindle Fire before so not really sure what to do tried connecting it to my Laptop but nothing shows up i.e installs etc. I don't know if it would be bricked or a software fault and tried Power and Volume Up and Down to see if there is a recovery system but they isn't.
I hope one of you guys can help

Amazon tate, please help, I've proper ballsed it up :(

I had a tate running candy lollipop for years, my kids had it and got a new tablet yesterday. I took the old tate and upgraded to crdroid, full wipes, was running fine. Then, me being an idiot I tried flashing magisk which resulted in the tate not booting past the yellow/orange kindle fire logo.
I had crdroid 7.1.2 and twrp 3.0 installed, cant boot to recovery, cant boot at all. Fastboot hangs on <waiting for devices> and I know I have fastboot/adb/sdk/kindle drivers etc all installed but still nothing. I dont care if I have to flash it all back to fireOS or whatever, just want it working, I did have a factory cable from 4 years ago but cant find it, probably lost...
Is there anything I can do with normal usb cables? Or do I need to order a new cable? Any key combinations to try? any simple reset tools? KFFaide doesnt 'seem' to be of any use as its asking to choose option 15 but I dont have that many options, but that is all set up correctly with the paths etc...
Cheers.

I had this exact problem and solved it. For more context I would read some of the posts before it where I explain my problem (start with Feb 10).

Cheers mate, I had already got a cable ordered as I figured there was nothing I could do with any of these 20+ usb cables I must have lying around my house
I'll wait for that to turn up and go straight to just installing the freedom boot img, hopefully it all works as the crdroid rom was surprisingly good in the half hour I was using it.
Cheers again.

IT WORKED!!!!!

I literally did the exact same thing as you. Flashed crdroid, flashed magisk later without thinking, stuck on the boot loop, unable to get into twrp recovery.
Got a fastboot cable, able to get tablet into fastboot, and followed Devo7v's instructions from the other thread that was linked, and afterwards I'm still stuck bootlooping, no access to recovery. I've tried so many different things. Can anyone help?

Update: (sooner than I expected)
After almost giving up, came across the Ultimate Unbrick Utility on Tekify (don't have enough posts here to link directly, yet). I was able to use it to finally reset my Tate to factory settings with a fastboot cable, and correctly boot. It bootlooped once before booting correctly.

Sorry, I havent actually logged on here for ages so only just saw this.
Mine was just really simple, D/L these 2 files:
boot kfhd7-freedom-boot-7.4.6.img
recovery kfhd7-twrp-2.8.7.0-recovery.img
from here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=34232
And placed on desktop, got SDK downloaded and installed from this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaNM-lt_aHw
Kindle fire HD drivers from THIS link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890413
And rebooted PC, opened cmd prompt and entered: fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product
Plugged in turned off kindle with the fastboot cable, cmd prompt acknowledged it was plugged in
entered: cd c:\users\ROBNEY\desktop
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot kfhd7-freedom-boot-7.4.6.img [enter]
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery kfhd7-twrp-2.8.7.0-recovery.img [enter]
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot [REMOVE CABLE THE MICROSECOND THE FASTBOOT LOGO DISSAPEARS FROM KINDLE SCREEN]
Then you can reboot to twrp (hold power and volume up, let go of power when kindle logo turns blue)
