Hi there,
Can anyone tell me how to get it out of demo mode?
Got it as part of a stock clearance, shop closing, didn't realise it was a demo.
Thank you so much

Last night, i was using the Kindle Fire First Aide to restore my kindle fire hd to 7.2.3. After it downloaded the files, it failed on one when flashing. All was fine though. I rebooted back to normal mode and it booted fine, i was using the Kinology rom. I then factory resetted my kindle and after rebooting, it now bootloops all the time.
My question now is, do i need a factory cable in order to fix my kindle fire hd or is it bricked??
If i do need a factory cable, would this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/EARLYBIRD-S...59SG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1362233872&sr=8-1 work fine?
Sorry if this doesn't make any sense.
Thanks for any replies you may give.
That cable will work fine.

Oh good. Thanks for the reply!
Quick question, when i get this cable, do i just plug it in to my kindle and it'll go into fastboot automatically or do i have to do something else??

Glad to hear it. :good:
I bricked my Kindle Fire HD recently and was hoping that there was a way to enter fastboot on it without purchasing a fastboot cable. I don't have the money to buy one either. I have the img files and everything else needed. Thank you for your reply.
You will have to make one if you can't afford one, or try jumping two points on the motherboard with a wire. Fastboot cables are pretty cheap though, only around 5-15$.

Lawlz I would rather not do that. Do you know how I can make a Fastboot Cable? I have about a million cables for the device. So could you lead me to a guide that I can use to make one with. If I take the device apart the chances of me breaking it is even higher.
If you don't have a soldering iron this could be very difficult to do by jumping a wire.... I believe Samsung cables are recommended because not all cables have a spot on the PCB for pin 4, and Samsung's typically do.

Buy a fastboot cord for 10 bucks. Meanwhile install ADB drivers and Kindle Fire FirstAide.
When the cord gets to you, run KFFA and restore to 7.2.3 and root and remove OTA updates all from KFFA.
You'll restore to 7.2.3 so you will have a nice matching boot.img to use from Hashcode's thread when you go to flash a 2nd bootloader and custom rom.
*face palm* I had the link to the tutorial on how to make a fastboot cable copied and I forgot to paste it in my post. Hehe my bad...

Read mrkhigh's post, he provided a link to it.

Maybe the face palm will fix your eyes so you can read the many other posts posted on here dealing with this issue. Like the part that recommends having a fastboot cord before messing with your tablet. Or how to UTMFSE to find the pin out diagram to make your own fastboot cord.
I wouldn't waste ten dollars on a fast boot cable till I needed one if your careful and all goes right there is no need for one and even at that I'd rather make one than pay for it given I have a Samsung cable.
I grant you I used one but just because I felt like making one. Didn't even use it for a few months

Well after i opened cable up, I realized I don't have any Solder. LOL. I have a Soldering Iron, but no Solder. So now I just wasted my time practically until I can get solder.
How do we know when a thread is talking about the first gen or second gen. Don't both devices (small and large) use the same names: HD & HD+
Thus how does one differentiate?

What second generation? There is only one.
The 7" is the HD and the 9" is the HD+. That is all there is.

Yeah... Not sure what the confusion is, you even differentiated them yourself. "HD, HD+"

Ok so this is probably a stupid question but I have the Kindle Fire HD 7" with the front facing camera and I just got a new KFHD but its the new 2013 lineup refresh without the camera. Would that be considered the kindle fire 2 or still just kindle fire HD 7 inch. It also has the fire OS 3.0 blah blah etc who cares lol. Just looking to put CM on this thing. :good:
is the hd, but you cant use cm, because the device is different

It says on xda it has a 8" screen, but everyone is talking about this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00TS...448583929&sr=8-6&pi=SL75_QL70&keywords=kindle this is the one that I bought
This is the correct section for the 7" Fire that you indicate you have purchased.
