So i was trying to update to an older version because when i updated to android 5.1.1, it could not update google play services by it self. I had to get the new gapps for android 5.1.1. When i plugged the kindle in my computer, it would reboot the kindle so i couldnt put files on the kindle. So i decided to go to twrp and downgrade but i forgot to wipe so now im stuck in Cyanogenmod loading boot screen and would pop up with a message saying, "unfortunately, the process android.process.media had stopped" and there are options report or ok. This message would popup for a 1 to 5 seconds and it would go back to cyanogenmod loading screen. Please help, my computer doesnt detect the kindle when i plug it in.
Can you get back into twrp and try reinstalling cm12 to at least get you back to a good starting point to try to downgrade again?

kindle fire 5th gen, stuck in boot loop unless battery drained.
I am able to boot fine only if the battery becomes drained from the boot loop'ing and then i turn it back on. But after it boots fine into the fire os, if i do a reboot or power off, then power on again, it will go back into a boot loop. And, i can't even turn it off right now, it is jsut in a boot loop.
It seems strange that it still boots, but only in that condition. WHat could be wrong? if i flash a custom rom, would it fix it or what?
thanks

Your best best is to reload FireOS 5.1.2 from the stock recovery menu if you can access it. Long press power until the device shuts off. Then press and hold left volume button (one closest to head phone jack) immediately followed by power button. Hold both for 5-10 sec. If no response release both then try again. After 3-5 seconds the device should boot into recovery mode. From there you can attempt to reload FireOS 5.1.2 following the instructions in this guide/video: here.
If you can't access the recovery menu then your only other option is to request an exchange from Amazon if the device is still under warranty.
Maybe try a back to Stock.

Hold power down & Volume down (When the buttons are on top the left one)
Hold the vol down button until you are in the recovery.
use the vol buttons until you find the "apply update from ADB"
The go ahead and use "ADB Sideload ./../xxx.bin" (Drag the downloaded file (.Bin) To the Terminal/cmd)

Well, that's a different story! Devices running 5.0.0-5.0.1 can boot twrp which greatly facilitates the installation of a custom rom which should eradicate the bootloop problem. You definitely do NOT want to upgrade FireOS beyond v5.0.1 as the device will permanently loose the ability to boot twrp. Such devices are sought and pretty rare.
On the road today so can't easily find/link relevant threads. Hopefully someone else will or I will update this post later.

hi. i just now installed the CM12, I was hesitant at first and wanted to take my time because i messed up a fire about a week ago, it was another fire 5th, but it had 5.0.12, and i think it was because i updated it and it was because i connected it to wifi, unike this one i didn't connect it to the internet before rooting and installing CM
i bought that fire off ebay used for 35 or less too.
so, now my fire works fine, and i can use it for extra stuff like reading.
thanks guys.
Hi There,
I bought my tablet yesterday off the internet and upon updating the software to the newest Amazon it is now stuck in the Fire System Recovery when I click either "Reboot your Fire" or "Reset to Factory Defaults" it just keeps restarting to the same screen. Ive been reading online and some people are saying it has been Soft Bricked. I have the original Amazon Charger with it but when I plug it into the computer it recognizes it at first but then doesnt when booting to the recovery screen.
Would really like to get my tablet working, any ideas?
Thanks
When booting up your Fire, hold down the volume down.
Look for a way to reset your Fire (Something like "Factory Reset" or "Firmware Restore")
Press the Powerbutton to select.
Scroll down to Yes
Your Fire will now reset.
Recommendations)
Use RootJunky's SuperTool to block OTA updates OR install flashfire and flash a custom ROM
PS: NEVER LET YOUR FIRE UPDATE FIRMWARE!!!
So recently i loaded up TWRP on my fire tab 2019 7 inch (Using the Hardware method in this link https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=Unbrick+mustang&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8) .I Then proceeded to install the Unofficial Lineage Os Rom (From this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/orig-development/rom-lineage-14-1-t3957329). So then the fire Logo shows up then the Lineage Os boot logo shows up.Then the screen went black. Now when I press the power button i hear the lock sound,And i can hear when volume changes. I can also hear the boot chime of the fire tab but there is nothing on the screen. I can confirm that when i use Volume down+ Power to get into Recovery, ADB will show the device as being in recovery.
Is there a way i can get for the screen to work again?
I am the same, black screen. I can not do anything
