HELP: Deleted Everything on kindle fire!!!!! - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok guys, i have truly screwed up. Im not sure if this is the right thread, but i need some serious help! I had my kindle fire rooted and flashed with cm9. It was running great then next thing i know i was getting spammed with "Sorry but the process com.android.phone has stopped working." everytime i click ok it would pop up again instantly. I looked online and it suggested a double-system wipe. So i did, but without thinking, i wiped the SD folder too! Which deleted my rom! My back ups are gone, i cant restore to anything! I still have TWRP v2.1.1 on it though. But when i boot normal it just sits at a black screen, help me please....

I think you should still be able to boot into recovery by turning on your KF and then continuously tapping the power button. Worth a shot right?

Oh no big deal. Boot into twrp and then you should have an option to mount (meaning mount sd card) click that and follow the instructions. Once you have your KF sd card mounted it should show up on your computer as a removable disk. The last step is just finding the ROM you want and putting the .zip file of it on your KF's SD card. After that you can unmount the sd card, return to the main menu of twrp and flash the new ROM you just put on your SD card.

Do i have to have it unplugged from computer, mount, then plug in, or have it plugged in already?
And it should look like this,
[X] Unmount System
[X] Unmount Data
[X] Unmount Cache
[ ] Mount SD Card,
right? if so, when i mount, nothing shows up under "my computer"

Yup if you cant get it to connect then def. adb

Boot into TWRP and then mount the drive using the advanced menu. Then you can load in a ROM to install.

Afaik, you have to boot into recovery, go under mount options, select mount sd card and then connect it to your PC. Usually it should detect your device.
I've always done the same.
And if you don't have a card reader, I don't think it's too expensive to buy one.
Thank you guys, ive solved the problem.
Now i have FXP Ice Cream Sandwich on my Arc! really great rom.
Thanks!

[Q] [Really need help!!!]Cannot enter recovery with sd card

I'm dealing with a very very weird issue
Recently i flashed ICE beta 6 rom but it was slow and not good enough for daily driver, so I decided to restore latest nand backup from my last sense 2.3 rom
I did as usual. Reboot to recovery. Noticed that sdcard is recognized as 'null' but did not pay attention to it (which seems to be very stupid now)
I wiped all the partition and system and cache and factory reset etc... as usual
Then i chose restore but it said "error can't mount sdcard"
Tried to mount /sdcard but it said error
So i thought, ok we could try powering off and detach/attach the sdcard again
I powered it off, and now i can only enter Fastboot. Everytime when choosing BOOTLOADER, it enters but then i cannot use Vol up + Vol down + power to navigate through options. Have to pull the batt off to turn the whole thing off.
But when i remove the sdcard, the navigation buttons are MAGICALLY working again! But it does not make any sense because i need the sdcard to restore!!!!
So, any one, help me, please!!!
Very appreciated and thank you in advance!
Somebody helps me please!!!!!!!!!! Super urgent
Maybe your sd is messed up. Put the sd in a card reader and read it from pc. If u can, perform a backup. Then format the sd and see if u can enter recovery !
Or try a different sd card of you have one

Erased SD card - Can't enter CWM recovery

Hi,
I've successfully rooted my HTC one x, and installed TripNRaVeRs CM9 ROM.
I then decided it Erased the SD card to make it clean and free up space, Setting > storage > Erase SD card.
This has not effected the ROM but it is no longer possible to enter ClockWorkMod through recover and I want to go back to my standard ROM.
Is this because I have deleted something important off the SD card?
When I first enter the bootloader mode the HBOOT now reads;
SD Checking...
failed to open usb master mode
failed to open usb master mode
loading HTCUpdateZipName image...
failed to open usb master more
Please plug off USB
if I 'fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img'
it says OKAY and Finished, but when I go into the bootloader and select recovery it just restarts the phone into android.
Have you tried to boot into recovery after the reboot from trying to enter recovery? As far as I know there is nothing important that can be erased by formatting sd card. You should flash the latest cwm recovery, 5.4.0. It's in the development section, sorry can't find it quickly from my phone now. That will allow you to put rom on sd card.
Another method is if you can boot into rom, just use adb to enter recovery.
'adb reboot recovery'.
Edit: Here is the link for the latest recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819&highlight=recovery
Oh and that Hboot message is quite normal. I also get it and am sure everyone else gets it as well. It is just looking to see if there isn't a update file(That's for different images, which we'll probably use when we have s-off).

Did I loose anything by wiping the SD card?
Whenever I reboot, my phone now says 'Preparing SD card' in the status bar, which it never used to.

obviously you have lost the contents of your SDcard and probably any CWM backups you have made.
will likely have lost any big game data like ShadowGun etc, anything that requires you to download additional game data
and FYI the "preparing SD card" popup on reboot is normal, maybe you have not noticed it before but it is normal
Thanks.
yea, I wanted to clean it from all the '3 mobile' crap that comes installed (including some bad music), I had already saved my CWM recovery to my PC so have a copy of that.
Just wanted to make sure I hadn't lost any important drivers or boot files. But now thats its booting fine into CMW Im happy.
This is my first attempt at rooting so have not seen the preparing SD card on sense.
should be ok, nothing boot related runs from the SD so happy modding
and the prepping SD should be on stock aswell as custom, maybe im mistaken

Wiped without an OS backup

So i rooted and wiped with WRPW or whatver. I forgot to load a new OS onto the SD card and now I cant boot. The computer wont detect it as a storage device to load one on either! Stuck at Kindle Fire loading screen.
TWRP or whatever, has an option to mount your sdcard to USB, the same way the OS does.

Right... so mount after you connect to PC... put OS on it, then flash
Connect it to PC, boot it into recovery mode, select mount and mount it for usb storage access, copy the ROM over and then flash it. And next time make sure you have everything ready before wiping lol

[Q] Crashing and freezing?!

Hi guys , its me again ... well i have a big problem.I recently owned a Kindle fire ,but i gave it to my brother who went away for a while . He came back with the divice telling me that the hard drive had crashed. I thought it was not a big problem so i tried to fix it. I turned it on and saw the blue kindle fire letters (because it's rooted) and then afterwards it said boot and then the screen would just go blank. I thought it was a bit strange so i went into recovery and everything was gone so i thought that maybe he had wiped everything from the SD card , system , cashe and dalvik cache except TWRP , so i mounted the device to my computer , copied the jandycane ROM for jellybean 4.1.1 for KF and the gapps onto the kindle fire , i then unmounted and tried to flash it but it would give me an error. My brother claims he didn't make it fall or anything and he is studying medicine so he really needs it because he doesn't want to carry his laptop around. Please help me , both me and my brother are in great need.
Thanks in advance.
The kf like most tablets/phones does not have a hard drive, it uses flash drive memory like sd cards. I seriously doubt that it could have gone bad, however it could be an issue with the partitioning of the drive. What exactly are the errors you get when trying to flash a Rom?

Maybe your file transfer hiccupped. You could wipe the device and push it again then retry your flash.

I can't wipe it becuase TWRP in on my SD
Wipe system, factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache then transfer the .zip ball over and flash it again just to make sure. You won't lose folks stored on the sd as long as you don't wipe sd which you don't need to do.

You obviously have recovery installed, and I'm pretty sure it isn't installed to the sdcard partition.

TWRP is on my SD card i see it when i usb mount my sd card to my pc. Also even after wiping everything except Sd card it still wont flash the zip
Is the TWRP on your sdcard a TWRP folder or is the TWRP you are speaking of the recovery.img?
Also, what version of TWRP are you running?
Make sure zip file verification and md5 check are disabled when you flash it. If you still have issues place another rom.zip and gapps.zip on your sdcard then flash it.

Okay, that's just the backups/themes folder. TWRP is actually installed to it's own partition, separate from the sdcard. Not that it matters because your problem seems to be that you're using TWRP 2.3 rather than 2.2
Not to say that's the only problem you're having, but it's a good place to start.
Well i think i updated to TWRP 2.3 but i need to check so im not sure :\
its sticking at the TWRP screen x_x any help on this?
