Hardbricked Kindle Fire (5th Gen) - Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I tried to downgrade from 5.6.x to 5.2.x. And its hardbricked.
I thought I could unbrick. But now, dont know what to do with that brick.
The Fire is connected to my pc, its doing something like open/close. Windows plug-in sound comes around each 22 seconds.
I see just black screen (its like off)
I've installed and tried KindleUnbrickV1.1, but it waits for nothing. (It says, waiting for adb device. But doesn't become visible on abd...)
Regards

There is no unbrick utility for the 5th gen Fire.

but the problem is that the Fire is not seen by "adb devices"
(as I get, the Fire restarts itself and it takes around 22 seconds. its like an infinite loop)

Downgrading FireOS from 5.6 to anything below 5.4 borks the bootloader. There is no known method to resurrect the device. Save or sell it for parts.

in a near future, do you think that a new method will be found? @Davey126

Unlikely; bootloader downgrades are almost always fatal regardless of device.

I contacted to Amazon support. Hope that they'll help me

If device is within warranty they will likely exchange it for a refurbished unit as a one time courtesy. There is no technical fix if unable to access recovery.

btw, I have another amazon Fire which works fine (my friend's). can I do something with two of them to recover my broken one? @sd_shadow @Davey126

Hi, i also had the same problem but sadly nothing to do. My device brick was caused by an ota update through the system (so officially) and i assume i was unlucky. Same symthomps like your. I searched all the web and i found up that's really nothing to do with that. Amazon tries in any way to descourage this pratique so the bootloader is locked for that motivation. In less words:
Nothing to do, i suggest to put that thing in garbage or sell it for parts.

tell your stories, have you ever bricked or partially bricked a phone/s, say how, and what kind of device
I halfbricked my HD7S while trying to flash HSPL without downgrading the bootloader first, which bricked the boot loader, but the rest of the phone is functional, and now I'm stuck with stock rom
You know the story with my desire.. a small accident resulted into the phone falling from 1.5m height on the floor. Then it booted only once. when i tried to take out the battery and reboot it, nothing worked... it just died

If he has problems with drivers and would search for it he would've probably got something like "try other drivers" or "reinstall drivers".
Or at least try kdz flash.
Search for brick and then follow the suggestions given on the outcomes.

Its very likely out device makes use of a sbk, which it uses to encrypt all nvflash communication (nvflash is a nvidia protocal for acessing pre-bootloader states, with tegra devices this is done through apx mode.) Without knowing the sbk we have little hope of accessing nvflash via apx. I dont think it would be impossible to use a nexus 7 / asus tablet method to access nvflash but its a seroius undertaking for even the most skilled of developers.

Well, I F'ed up... :(

OK, so...I was messing around, and I ended up flashing the wrong boot.img file.
The phone just kind of goes in and out of the LG booting screen, which didn't concern me too much, because...it was still turning on and such.
SO I tried to hook up into the LG Flash tool, and......it didn't work. I put my phone in download mode, and it comes on my computer as a QHSUSB_BULK, and it opens up 15 "portable devices", all of which are not formatted correctly except for one (which comes up as drive E.

Things I can do:
Get into download mode, with crazy folders.
Get into some crazy Korean Screen with three options (Mode On, Mode Off, Cancel)
Turn the Phone on and off
Things I cannot do:
Boot into the OS
Boot into Fastboot
LG Flash Tools
ADB
If you guys want a screenshot of the korean screen, I can get you that. Maybe you can translate more of it, but I was only able to get the mode on and off, and the cancel part. Since I don't know what it does, I can't make it do anything.
If you want the files, lemme know, and I'll upload them.
Hopefully someone knows how I can fix this. Argh....

Yeah, I saw the difference. *lol* No life in the device at all, my linux mint doesn't discover it anymore. I'm going to try it again when I get home -- had to get to work, damn it.
If it reads it on the computer, which I doubt, but...maaaybe....I'll try it again with some img files. it's ok if it doesn't -- I'll just go to see about replacing it tomorrow.
OK. Plugged it back into the computer, and it comes up as:
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008
It doesn't show the 15 or so drives, and Linux doesn't read it at all.
LG Flash tool can see it sometimes, but it can't flash anything because it can't read the IMEI or anything on the phone -- fails every time.
Well unfortunately now you f'ed up
HS-USB QDLoader = hard brick

Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk
I wonder if there's a way to reassign the IMEI and such with CDMA Workshop or QPST...? The LG Flash tool says it can't find the phone, but it reads the phone on the right port.
I take it this method does not apply to a phone that cannot be seen by a pc?
Well...probably not. I still get it showing up as an "unknown USB" device now, lately, but nothing past that. No worries -- I'm just grabbing at straws while waiting for payday.

It wont go into fastboot? That korean screen is just the hardware button selector. Pretty much asks you if you want to use your hardware buttons. If you can adb it and get it to reboot thru fastboot then u have a chance.

You simply have to pay attention to what you're doing. If you're into flashing rom's and tinkering, I'd suggest you buy a Nexus device because they're easy to work with and hard to screw up.
I'm enjoying my G Flex just the way it is, there isn't any "must-have" root apps that are worth the trouble of going back to stock, or re-flashing this or that. Just look at all the problems people are having. Plus, I'm paying monthly on this device and have no interest in voiding it's warranty.

That is why I went exclusively to Nexus devices several years ago when I traded in my Vibrant for the Nexus S. Since then I have had 4 Nexus devices and not a one of them have been bricked in any way, after thousands of flashed files have been done to them. On my Nexus 7 I think its impossible to kill it via a bad flash. I think you would need to pull the cable in mid flash of the bootloader for any damage to occur, lol... But for recovery and roms/kernels etc, its near impossible I think.
This is the first non Nexus device in a long time so I think I will stick to stock on it and just root it and do away with the bloat. lol

Took the ota for 4.4.2 (bad idea #1) rooted via towel root v3 installed cwm via playfulgod's gflex app. (Bad idea #2) warning message told me not to I derped up and did it anyway.
Rebooted into recovery, wiped data/cache (she needed a reset for personal reasons) upon reboot I was prompted with a message *here is where I really messed up* message said something to the effect of "you may have lost root would you like to reroot?". I clicked OK (bad idea #3) and it hung at splash screen.
I have tried all unbrick methods on xda. I know what the crazy Korean screen says (with the barcode) and it is not at all relevant so don't get excited if you see it.
I was recently able to get into recovery wipe data/cache has no effect.
PHONE IS RECOGNIZED WHEN IN RECOVERY!!!!!!
Just trying now to get some adb/fastboot connectivity or something.
To play catch up see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2740247
I know this is kinda of old, but the same thing happen to me today but with t-mobile. how did you get it to boot in recovery i tried everything and for the life of me i cant get it to boot in recovery or download mode, i can get it to the white page with koren letters and the imei on the bottom with bar code.
If you guys can get into recovery then get Dfuse's stock 4.2.2 jelly bean Rom for T-MOBILE AND AT&T ONLY.
T-MOBILE & AT&T ONLY!!!!! put the zip on a thumb drive and use a female usb to male micro usb adapter. Sold at radio shack. Amazon , best buy. Etc. Now in recovery make sure usb-otg is mounted, then navigate to the zip and flash. Don't forget to factory reset afterwards and before you boot.
I believe I have bricked my phone in the same way...has anyone been able to remedy this...I am able to get to recovery and to a download screen that says download with a img of a PC and phone. I have a Sprint version.
Thank you
If u can go into download mode try using lg flash tool go back to stock method.

XT1068 don't turn on (not even a sign of charging either)

Hi Guys, I'm not so sure if I can recover my device on my own (or at all), but here is the situation I have:
I was in stock recovery doing a full wipe and everything seemed to go fine (no errors or anything). Then I chose the option to reboot to bootloader by accident (was going to reboot to normal system) and then my device went all black. Now I can't turn it on (not even bootloader) and when connected to charger does not even show a sign of charging.
I tried to hold down the power+down button for a couple of minutes, or power+down+up and also only hold power button, but no results at all. Seems pretty dead for me at this point.
If anyone have any idea of what I can do before considering searching for repair assistance (which can be hard for me, because I have no warranty and I'm not even in my home country, so it is kind of a last resort for me), I will fully appreciate it.
Thanks!
It's called a hard brick. I've just hardbricked my phone too. If u connect it to your pc it should be recognised as qhsusb_bulk. There is a way to fix this but i don't know how. Praying for your help guys! Mine is xt1063
P.S. There's a guide for unbricking moto g 1gen and i'm afraid to apply it to my device. Mby it can help you somehow.

So finally i found out wha'ts going on. If you had 4.4.4 android before brick you can easily recover it by following the guide i gave u before. But if you had 5.0 or 6.0 then we're both f*cked :crying:

U had a regular brick, not the hard one. Auto restore script uses adb and bootloader. Hardbricked devices do not have access to any of these.
P.S. degrading bootloader from marshmallow's to lollipop's was the reason of bricking the device btw.
@luishr
Sorry to read this. Astonished to see how easy it is for a phone to get bricked. What new device did you buy?

Hey smitharro! I got a nexus 6. I am currently in Canada and got one for a good price (like around 40% cheaper than I can find in my country, where it is not sold officially by motorola as far as I know).
I'm really happy with it so far, but the whole situation was a bummer, because I was not planning to change my phone and spend money with this right now. The only thing that I still have to get used to is the size, because this is the first phone I own that it is this huge.

Congratulations on your nexus 6 (actually I'm a little jealous...). But I still hope my XT1068 will last a while, because these are the prices here (and I can't afford that):
