kindle fire 2 stuck at bootlogo - Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting

ok this is my situation...i got a kindle fire or kindle fire 2 off someone and when i got it i couldnt get passed the White and Orange Kindle fire logo so i decided to search these forums up and down trying different things...decided to buy a factory cable and i get to the Fastboot screen with the green blinking light and i get no further...i have never seen the home screen or anything..just that darn logo until the factory cable came in now im only seeing the fastboot screen...so im guessing this think cant be fixed.
im running windows 7 64bit and i have a linux live usb already set up.
i just wanna get this thing back to stock if its possible. if someone could possibly help me or if you need more info then by all means im here to listen or give the information needed to get this thing working again.
oh and i forgot the device comes up in the device manager as otter2-prod-04
i see posts from everyone thats rooting there device and messing it up that way...this is a stock device and the people that had it i can least say wasnt smart enough to even attempt to root or anything like that.
if someone could add my to skype to see if we can troubleshoot my problem that would be great. because waiting for responses on here is just taking more time...no offense to anyone im just anxious and would like to see whether or not this kf2 can be fixed or just throw it out the window lol
skype name = kenny-jackal

The RootPlus tool looks like it will restore partition images, which I believe you can download from another thread.

thx dude ill look into this and post back if i get stuck again

Root Plus does not come with saved partition images. Though, it will restore partition images saved using the tool or from other sources. If you choose to use a set of saved partition images from another source, make absolutely sure you are using the correct ones for your device or it will surely brick your device, permanently.

[Q] Kindle with no OS

I have a kindle fire with no OS, it has TWRP recovery and I was trying to wipe android 4.0 from it and re install 6.2.2 but I accidentally deleted the OS and any hope of re installing it. I cannot communicate with the device whatsoever using kindle utility or Kindle fire unbricker. I played with the drivers for awhile in device manager to no avail. it currently sits in 'Disk Drives' as Amazon Kindle USB device but I cannot put anything on it because it it's showing up as a proper driver or w/e. when I turn it on I get what I believe is the firefirefire triangle and if I choose to I can access TWRP, but when I left it fully boot I get a black lighting. Any help is extremely appreciate. I did look around for a bit before posting my question and found nothing that fit my problem but if there is such a thread I'm sorry I posted an unnecessary one.
have you tried mounting your kindle in twrp if you can then just flash a new ROM and you should be good to go
Sent from my CM9 LG G2X using Tapatalk
I thought I already tried that but I went back and fiddle with a few settings and got access to my kindle, I went looking for the kindle 6.2.2 stock rom and couldn't find a download, I need to find a stock download because brother plans on selling this kindle, I'm only helping because I was the one who rooted and put android 4.0 on there.
TLR; Where can I get kindle fire stock rom at?

Okay, I realize I tend to come off a little "jerky" sometimes, but I really am trying to help. When you hijack a thread that's several months old and post a problem that seemingly has nothing to do with the OP, only to later reveal that there is much more to your problem (even after being suggested to do it differently), it makes other people that would normally be willing to help, think twice about getting involved. Nobody wants to have to ask 50 different questions to get to the root of the problem. You need to realize that the people who would help, probably don't want to do more work than absolutely necessary. And you should be respectful of that if you want some quality assistance from the people who might be able to solve your problem.
So once again, and respectfully, I suggest you click on the link I gave you, read it, do any suggested research and follow the directions given in the post.
Hey I'm having the same problem. I tried to root my kinble fire and accidentilly wiped the stockos off it but I have TWRP on the device, however I am not able to mount the device using twrp to put a ROM on the device to boot to. Any help getting the device to be recognized by the computer and mounting it would be a great help and any other info about installing a ROM to my kindle would also be a big help.

I actually figured everything out about 2 hours after my post. In order to get the Kindle recognized by my pc I had to change it over to USB composite device then I was able to load a ROM on it and I am now enjoying jelly bean 4.1 on the kindle now. I have not been able to restore the kindle os but I am assuming that if I look long enough for the kernal and firmware I will be able to restore it. Not that I have any plans to seeing as I have a dedicated android tablet now that does everything I want it and need to do anyways, I read on the kindle for like 3 months when it first came out, not worried about reading on it any more besides there's an app for it. Anyways thanks for the reply.
Hi, sorry if it is bad manners to post in threats months old but I am also having a similar problem with my kindle fire.
Today I spent hours rooting it and trying to get the google play store to work on it - all in a dangerously haphazard manner. It was really reckless of me.
Somewhere in the process I used KFU 0.9.9 after restoring to stock and re-rooting, then after a reboot the OS would't show up. it seemed like it loaded and everything but I couldn't see anything after it loaded past TWRP. I wiped system, and now am without an OS and only TWRP to use.
Some details:
Mounting works
Flashing stock is NOT WORKING. This is my main problem. I don't know any other method of restoring an OS; I do not know how sideloading with ADB works, or if that would help at all.
Much apologies in advanced for my juvenile-ty
thanks

[Q] [Bricked] Kindle Fire, Please Help

Hello, I bricked my kindle fire by flashing a update.zip file because I wanted to return to stock. I wiped everything from cache to system and now my Kindle Fire just hangs on the KF screen.
I tried using KFU, FireKit, and I can get into adb but I can't access the adb shell and I can not get into fastboot.
Any help would be appreciated. And I don't know if my battery is even charging either. The battery is dead. Thanks.
I'm having the same problem except I soft bricked mine. :c It doesn't even show up on ADB.
I literally just had this exact problem, and the ONLY thing that actually worked was buying a factory cable from SKORPN. After I got it, all I had to do was plug it in and used the Kindle fire utility to install FIREFIREFIFE and boom, it worked like a charm.

Even if your computer won't recognize the Kindle fire, it won't matter. The factory cable made by SKOPRN is specially made for your computer to recognize it, but it won't say that it has recognized it. By the way, there is no utility that will unbrick your fire, and trust me I have tried. The only thing that actually worked was buying a factory cable. It's only 12-13 dollars and if your fire ever gets bricked again, the cable will save the day. Almost always.
Pls try reinstalling the drivers.. I have attached the steps below: It should help
1) Download KFU from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1399889
2) Before you start rooting ur device.. do the below
3) Extract the util.. run the install_drivers.bat.. this will help you install the drivers..
4) Once it is successfully done..follow the steps outlined in the document attached below (install drivers for ur kindle.docx)
5) Next step is to root ur device and install the google framework and market
6) To root your device.. run run.bat.. select option 2 to install the root.. it might take sometime and will restart the kindle and notify you
7) to install the google apps..run option 6 and then select 1.. sit back and watch the magic happen

I did all that, besides I can't get past step 2 because it says ADB is offline. Even with the drivers installed it shows up on the computer. What am I doing wrong
EDIT: I got it to activate ADB but still won't go on fastboot or anything. Atleast I got somewhere but now what? It won't even start up lmao. Why did I ever have to install CM9 on my device without installing FireFireFire
EDIT again: LOL I just broke it even more now it doesn't get past the Kindle fire screen, now what? Atleast I have a reason to take it to best buy now, the last time I went I said it was a hardware issue, now I can say it won't get past the kindle fire screen. Maybe I can take it back there and see if they can do anything xD
EDIT again: Good news, it's broken enough to get a new one! So I'm gonna get a refund and see how this goes c;

Just so you know, your device was never "broken". You just don't know what you're doing. But I agree with the previous post. Until you have a better idea of how the Kindle Fire works, leave it stock.
---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------
[Edit:] And this constant practice of breaking one's own device and sending them back to Amazon despite knowing that it violates the terms of the warranty, is probably one of the biggest reasons Amazon locked down the new Kindle Fire HDs and probably every subsequent device moving forward.
The old saying, "You made your bed, now sleep in it", definitely applies here.

What you have is a Kindle Fire 2. Do not try to flash custom recovery on it until you visit the Kindle Fire 2 forums.

Red Screen - Kindle Fire HD 7"

I followed a few tutorials to root my Kindle Fire HD 7". Fastboot and ADB worked and I had recovery installed on it prior to having it bricked. At least I'm pretty sure the red screen means it's bricked; it won't do anything now. I ended up buying a fastboot cable on eBay so I could try recovering it, and that works. I can get it into fastboot easily, but the restore process doesn't work! I tried restoring from the backup I made, I tried doing a standard restore, I tried doing both of the above using the standard cable after getting it into fastboot... Nothing works and I always get the red screen when I finish and try to boot. I have no idea what I could possibly be doing wrong. I've scoured the forums and found no answers to this particular issue. Can anyone help me?
Thank you.
Can u see the device from fastboot?
Is the system.IMG u are using a sparse image?
In pretty sure the "wall of fire" means you are bricked, but I didn't think you could get to fastboot once you had it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
I can see the Kindle in Device Manager while it is in fastboot, if that is what you mean. It is listed as Kindle Fire > Android ADB Interface.
As for the image, I'm sorry but I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. I first tried restoring from the image I had backed up of my Kindle when it was functioning through KFFirstAide, then I tried restoring it to 7.2.3 in the same utility. I also verified that the .img files where all in the KindleBackup folder. I also tried the Kindle Fire HD System.img Recovery Tool, but that didn't work either.
EDIT: I just realized I posted this in the Kindle Fire 2 section by mistake, and not the HD 7" section. Oops. :/
If a moderator could move it for me I'd appreciate it.

Well I found this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273638
And I tried the first option to flash the 7.2.3 bootloader. That made the kindle fire logo appear and blink slowly, but it never booted. I tried restoring after that and it red screened again. I tried the second option in that thread and it's doing something similar, but it still doesn't seem to want to boot.
I'm at a loss here. EDIT: It was taking forever, but I finally got the welcome screen to show up. That thread worked. At first it didn't but I had to navigate the command prompt into the right folder to ensure that it could see the images.
Thanks for the Info. This might help someone in the future.
Good luck with things

Kindle Fire 2 Red Screen (Bricked?)

I rooted my Kindle Fire 2 about a week ago and I was really enjoying it. Today I decided that I wanted to get cyanogen mod on my kindle. I went to a a forum page here on XDA which had a one click thing for TWRP. I downloaded it onto my kindle and started to install it. I allowed it with superuser, but then my screen went black and turned red. Now I'm kind of nervous because I've read that now I need to use a Factory/Fastboot cable to restore it. Is there any other way for me to restore my kindle? I can turn it off by holding the power button for 20 secs, but when I turn it back on the logo flashes for 2 secs and the red screen comes back.. Please help.. I'm kinda upset right now
No. You need a cable. Sorry you are upset but this is clearly stated in the CyanogenMod thread.

Ok, so if I purchase the cable, will that allow me to enter fastboot and fix the problem? Is fastboot somthing that is already on the device.. or is it something that I should of installed on it beforehand? Someone told me that all I need is the Factory Cable and I can work from there. Is that true?

I'm sorry, I know im asking dumb questions; honestly I'm new to this and I just need some help and I do appreciate the help you are providing. I have read the link you posted, but I have one more question. When I plug in the Factory Cable is fastboot something that is already on the device? I dont think I installed fastboot on my device (if it can even be installed) But I know for a fact that my KF2 is rooted. I know this is a dumb question, but the only way for me to find out is if I ask. Thanks.

It helps but you can use Kindle Fire FirstAid and a factory fastboot cord and restore to factory. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096888 You can make a fastboot cord or buy one for 10 bucks, up to you.
He did a good job describing everything.
If you want to try getting custom recovery again, root your Kindle Fire using Bin4ry's method. Use the new method (No Xperia stuff - You'll know when u use it). And use Kindle Fire First Aid and disable OTA updates. Download TweezerMod Installer (Google it) and follow instructions. You will be as amazed, excited, and happy as at first when you recovered your kindle.
