My KINDLE FIRE in PROBLEMS! Root and Google Play - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good afternoon everyone! I present myself as I am new here, and unfortunately, I'm in trouble.
I commented, I have a Kindle Fire 6.3.1 which try to give root to install the GOOGLE PLAY (ANDROID MARKET).
The problem is that now whenever I turn it on, a screen of TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project) version 2.2.0 and I can not do anything.
To start in normal mode I have to press the power button when you are starting and choose Normal Boot. The problem is that when you start to NORMAL BOOT ANDROID starts with in the middle of the screen and says WELCOME TO KINDLE FIRE ... touch the android to begin. But does not respond. All the Martian and does nothing, no onscreen button does nothing.
Anyone can help me???
PS: sorry for my english, i use a google translate

What ROM did you install?

I didnt install any ROM.
Just Root with Kindle Fire Utility (but, the process says
"Attempt to remove root checker
mv: can't rename '/system/bin/check_rooted' : No such file or directory
Please wait...
Im do the root, then i install gapps with the TWRP with the install zip option
and when i reboot in normal mode, i have the android martian with the phrase "TOUCH THE ANDROID TO BEGIN"

Can you post a picture of it? It's been a while since I used stock, but I don't remember anything about an android.

That's weird. Where did you get the Google Apps package you installed in TWRP?

It doesn't matter. Unless you have a Gapps package made for the stock Kindle software, I doubt it will ever work. You should look into installing Google Market on the KF manually.

so... you think that im not lost?? How can i install the google market manually?? and how can i do to start the kindle normally? because in that way, i cant use it

Well, that depends. You can flash a custom ROM in TWRP and be done with it, or you can revert back to stock and have considerably more work to do. The upside to that is there is a stock based custom ROM (MoDaCo) that has everything you are trying to do, already done.

Small problem when going from Philz Touch Recovery back to TWRP

Hello,
I recently tried out the latest version of "PhilZ-Touch Recovery 6.0" located in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446393. I did this from my previously installed recovery (TWRP V2.6.3.0) and everything went and had no problems, but I decided to go back to TWRP anyway and installed the latest TWRP version for my phone (V2.6.3.1) and again everything went fine and I was back to using TWRP again. The only problem I noticed is that when I boot into TWRP recovery now, I see this blue logo on my screen before I am presented with the TWRP curtain screen that I was used to seeing before.

I did a little searching and discovered this logo is the CyanogenMod Logo and since I do not have CyanogenMod installed on my phone, I can only assume it was placed on my phone as part of the philz recovery install. My question is then, how do I get rid of this logo since I do not have CM installed and do not want it to show up when I boot into TWRP?
TIA,
Mtcell
P.S. I would have posted this in the thread above, but I am a newly registered member and was not able to post in that tread until I have accumulated 10 or most post. Instead of spamming the forum to get my post count up (and taking a change on getting my account suspended in the process), I felt it would be better to post this question here.
I have been running the PhilZ recovery since @CNexus made it available, it doesn't place that image on your phone.
What ROM are you running? TW or AOSP??

I am totally stock, rooted, and have been since I got the phone back in June. This is what is confusing me. Please note, the icon only shows up when I boot into recovery. If I do a normal boot / reboot then I cannot see it.

Hmmm, booting into recovery from android or with the phone off?
I just updated to 6.0.5 and I went into recovery to flash that update, though it was via the power menu.
Let me try with the power off ... ah yes, there is a little blue guy there when I go to recovery that way. (its been so long since I've done that)
TWRP probably doesn't over right that part of the phone.
Maybe try normal CMW flash and then back to TWRP or do a nandroid restore from a previous backup.
Twrp added that as the logo in the last update prob was a mistake

Thanks for the confirmation. At least I know I did not mess something up. I mainly do all of my rebooting into recovery from within android using GooManager, but I tried it from TWRP as well and the same result happened and finally, I tried it from a cold boot using the power, home, volume up buttons and the same result each time.
As far as the logo goes, I am not really overtly concerned about it as long as it's not going to mess anything up, I will probably leave it unless I find some reason I should remove it.
Thanks again for your replies,
Mtcell
yeah nothing messed up at all, you just have a new blue pal
Your welcome; a sanity test now and again is a good thing (some - like me - need them more often)

Ahh, that makes sense now. As I said, I will keep it just as long as it's not going to mess with anything (which it hasn't) so no harm no foul.

Rooted Elephone P8000 stucks at Boot Logo after OTA Update

Hi there,
The phone is rooted.
I've proceeded with the latest update today (~12mb size), don't remember the exact version.
It said it fixes some system bugs, etc.
After the update installed the phone won't load, stucks on the changing color logo.
Cannot access the recovery mode option in the boot menu (Vol+Power), says "no command", if press and hold Vol+ and Power again the phone restarts and enter the boot logo again.
Has anyone ideas how this can be fixed?

See http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p8000/help/boot-loop-ota-upgrade-t3246203.
Post #16 describes how get into recovery from the 'no command' screen, and my post #12 describes how I managed to get it flashed using the SP Flashtool.
(Note my point no,5 - all I needed to do is press 'Download' first, THEN attach the powered off phone.)
Good luck!

Actually, what you need to do is format the data partition or write the empty data.img file over the data partition which in effect does the same thing. And the later one is also what happens when your download entire rom using sp flash.

In that case you probably need to flash the system.img and maybe even the boot.img from the latest rom. Elephone really should stop sending out these broken OTAs...

I didn't read official forum. However you do loose your warranty if device is rooted, thus the device manufacturer owes you nothing. OTA worked fine before I rooted my device.
Btw, I got my phone back to life by re-flashing the entire ROM, just in case.

The only thing you need to do is reinstall the añl the system with spflashtool. Never and remember never you can update any android with a ota if you are a rooted user.
If you speak spanish you can search in the youtube channel AndroidMxL to ser how you can reinstall the original ROM on your android.

FTV 2015, sloane-5.2.4.0-rooted_r1 rom, bricked flashing Magisk 12 in drunken stupor

Hi All,
I managed to brick my Fire TV 2 by flashing Magisk 12 whilst under the influence.
The unit now boots to the white Amazon logo, the power light goes from white to orange and then it restarts (bootloop).
I have tried various fixes covered on the AFTV site to get back in to recovery but to no avail.
Attempted to re-root the unit which fails with the message "error: source file is larger than target file!"
During the re-root process, It does load the preloader and the power light pulses white until I remove the power lead. Is there anything I can do from here?
Details: sloane-5.2.4.0-rooted_r1 rom with TWRP recovery v3.0.0-5
Thanks.

The 2nd main requisite for Magisk is a fully unlocked bootloader. And only a small % of FTV1's have this done. If you can still go into TWRP. Then just flash the same PreRooted ROM you had installed before.

Sorry but it's a Fire TV 2 and the problem is that I can't get in to the TWRP recovery. I have tried multiple methods including the remote button presses and keyboard combinations.
The device isn't recognised over a network or USB adb. Before I bricked it, both USB and ADB debugging were enabled.
Have you tried the unbrick method?.

Edit: Your links didn't work properly. Wasn't until I looked at it again that I saw the bit about an unbrick image. Trying it now, fingers crossed...
OK, I have tried using both unbrick methods (unbrick.img and unbrick+ramdisk.img) they completed successfully but didn't resolve the issue (white Amazon logo, pulsing orange light bootloop).
Presently I am trying to inject the prerooted rom's boot.img using the "mediatek_inject firetv2 COM4 boot.img /boot -" command. At 4% so far...
Success! It took about 5 hours to flash the boot.img. Upon restarting the device it loaded to the white Amazon logo with the glowing white power led but this time it didn't reboot (no yellow light). It seemed stuck at this point so I started pressing the keyboard recovery buttons and viola, it opened TWRP. Flashed the latest pre-rooted rom, cleared caches and rebooted. Happily, all my data and apps were unaffected.
A lesson learnt. Don't mess about with technical things when you are drunk!

Just think you did some Magisk v12 on non-Unlocked Bootloader FTV test. I am just glad you at least got your device back to a normal state. Took one for the modding scene. Thanks drunken M1steron. I know sober M1steron would not have approved.

[HOW-TO] [2019/09] installing TWRP on A50 (100% working!)

What you need:
TWRP (thanks to ZVOX): htt ps://mega.nz/#!SWYwAQAb!bbLnex8yhT7tyBTdTMr2wIS-tzITjg5VMJ_p1msXenQ
DM-Verity Disabler: ht tps://mega.nz/#!6bIAACia!WtfQf6DRAJVLjxhW0Gp3J4HQv_VstpGYm_7RoVkVhsQ
copy links, and remove space in "ht tps".
Tested with A505F/DualSim (me) and A505FN (tested by muhamet).
Steps to install TWRP:
Enable oem unlock in the developer settings.
Power off phone. Hold 'vol-up' and 'vol-down' then plug your phone to PC. You will enter download mode.
Long press 'vol-up' to unlock bootloader. Phone will reboot and wipe data and remove google accounts.
When phone reboots, shut down phone, unplug from PC and wait until screen is off. Hold 'vol-up' and 'power' to enter stock recovery. Do a factory reset AND wipe cache. Then select to "reboot to bootloader" to go to download mode again.
Plug phone again, and in AP select the TWRP (3.3.1-3) provided by ZVOX. go tto options and untick/unselect auto reboot.
Click on start. When its done, hold 'vol-down' and 'power' until screen goes black then IMMEDIATELY STOP HOLDING 'vol-down' and SWITCH to 'vol-up' before Samsung logo appears, WHILE KEEPING YOUR FINGER ON 'power'. VERY IMPORTANT TO BOOT IN TWRP!! keep holding no matter what until you get TWRP screen.
Swipe to allow modifications, then press Mount > System.
Go to Advance > File Manager, then scroll to /system/system/ and scroll to "recovery-from-boot.p" and rename it to "recovery-from-boot.p.bak"
Flash Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt zip in TWRP.
Format Data partition. Type "yes" to confirm.
you can boot to system now. TWRP is permanent. GG
Thanks bro . I will provide feedback definitely

What about A505FN? The other guides that I tried, they didn't really go well.

It works with any model. (Although I only tested with A505F/Dual Sim).
If anybody tests this and reports success, reply in thread to add your device as compatible.
Does it works with South American Models!?

Also, i have a question. So i've rooted my xiaomi note 5 with magisk, and i wanted to do the same with my main phone, and now i cant unlock my phone because i dont want my data lost (the apps are the most important and i have all my other data backed up) and i came across mediatekbootloaderunlock and im just wondering is it patched or does it still work? because if it works then im definitely rooting my phone.

It actually worked, and now my phone is unlocked. So i flashed orangefox and i cant seem to boot into it. When i try the combination (power and volume+) it just vibrates and goes back to system. i tried fastboot boot but it didnt work.

This has happened to me too. What I did was that after several attempts I managed to get into twrp and reboot the phone into fastboot via twrp. I know it sounds logical, but try to connect the phone to the computer and hold the power off button and click the volume up button several times. Try it several times, it always works. Via Orange Fox, reboot the phone into fastboot and install the stock rom when you are in fastboot mode. I hope it helps you.. good luck
