Bricked Kindle Fire! Please help! - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have bricked my kindle fire and need help. I have apparently wiped the OS from my kindle fire and failed to backup everything before I started. I can access TWRP but the PC(using windows xp) will not recognize the kindle. If I let it boot "normal" (gets stuck at logo) the PC will partially recognize the kindle but I have no access to the files on kindle (only recognized in device manager). I get an error on Kindle Fire Utility v0.9.9 stating that the "system/bin.sh" file cant be found or something like that. Please help as I have read and read and tried everything but to no avail.

[Q] Kindle Fire Brick (possibly FUBAR) Please help!!!

First of all, I search many threads but couldn't find help for my specific problem. I rooted my Kindle Fire 6.2.2. with TWRP. Upon trying to unroot it, it bricked. I downloaded Kindle Fire Utility v0.9.3. to fix this but my computer won't properly recognize my Kindle. It doesn't seem like a driver problem. All I can do when I plug in my Kindle is eject it. And when I try to install FireFireFire, I get this error "Oops...something went wrong. We are unable to locate your Kindle Fire. Make sure it is plugged in and powered on."
Please help! Thanks.

so you get an understanding of how these different pieces fit together.
I can't get a sense of where your problems begin. 1) TWRP is not used to root. 2) you never mention what your Kindle Fire is doing that you think it's bricked. 3) how did you manage to root it in the first place if your drivers weren't working?

Answers: 1. Rooted with BurritoRoot3 and also installed TWRP. 2. It is stucked on the Kindle Fire screen. 3. My drivers were working then and seem to be now. The problem is my computer won't recognize my Kindle. And when I go to Kindle properties, the manufacter, model number, and description all come up as unavaible and grayed out.

If you installed TWRP, then you also installed FFF. If by "Kindle Fire screen" you mean the yellow triangle logo and that's all you see when it starts up without it ever blinking black, then you are in fastboot mode. Use KFU to set it back to normal and reboot it. If that doesn't work, you need to check the device manager in Windows and make sure it shows "Android Phone -> Android ADB Interface" for your Kindle Fire. If the device manager does not show that, then you need to uninstall the drivers, remove the device from the device manager, disconnect the KF from your computer and follow these directions....

First of all. thank you for the help. And now my Kindle is stuck on the Kindle Fire screen.
Mine is stuck here too..been 3 days.. ordered the factory cable.. hopefully that works.
One thing I've noticed is that sometimes when the you try to issue fastboot commands in fastboot mode it doesn't register. But that doesn't mean you aren't in fastboot mode.
Get your command prompt ready (“ready" means that "fastboot" is in your present working directory)
Turn off your Kindle
Type "fastboot devices" (without quotes)
Turn your Kindle on
Hit enter to send fastboot command
Keep hitting UP arrow to bring up last command and keep hitting enter until your computer recognizes the Kindle. If it doesn't, start over and try again. When it does, then you can change your bootmode.
It WILL work, eventually. If it doesn't, the only other logical explanation is it's a driver issue.
Typically speaking (but not always), the only reason you should ever have to use a factory cable is if you killed your battery and you don't have enough juice to power the device. There are other reasons but they are extremely RARE.
And please forgive my frustration, but this is one of the simplest concepts to master. "Unbricking" your device shouldn't be this difficult...for anyone.

I notice in a post someone is seeing:
"Bricked mine too. It shows up as a USB COM port and spits out "READYREADYREADYREADY" until it disconnects itself. I think this means it should be possible to restore 5.3.2.1 via sp flash tool (or maybe another serial loader). If we can get the right files"
Is that the "Ready" you are saying means wait until fastboot?

[Q] Problems with FFF & KFU. Device not recognized

Hello-
Quick background. I have a Kindle Fire with the CM9-Reloaded ROM installed. All was going well for a few weeks until my Kindle stopped connecting to the internet. I figured it was just a bug and wanted to reinstall the ROM or choose a different one.
I have FFF v1.4 (with the blue logo) installed. When I get to the screen that allows me to choose "Normal Boot", "Recovery", or "Reset Boot Mode" I choose the "Recovery" to go into TWRP; however, this doesn't happen. It puts me back into a loop to the same screen to choose again. I can do this over and over again and I'm still not able to get into recovery to get to TWRP.
I decided to see if I could use the Kindle Fire Utility to get to TWPR that way. Before everyone asks, my drivers are all updated and functioning properly. I uninstalled and reinstalled just to double check. When the Kindle is plugged in, I can go to the device manager and see my Kindle there. The problem is that KFU says I'm offline and I can get to any of the menus. When I plug in my Kindle I do get the little "bong" that tells me my computer recognized it.
Also, went to my laptop and downloaded the KFU and installed everything. Same result as with my desktop.
What else can I try? I have a factory cable, but I really don't know much about how to use it. I simply followed step by step instructions to root this when I originally got it. Any suggestions? I'd really just like to put this Kindle back to stock, re-root, and try it all over again to eliminate any potential issues in the future. Thanks in advance for your help.
Does "adb reboot recovery" not work from within the ROM either? You can try to reflash TWRP from fastboot, if you're feeling brave enough. Double check the hash first, though.

No, adb reboot recovery doesn't work. How would I reflash TWRP from fastboot? I'm definitely a rookie at cmd work.

By it not working, do you mean that it reboots normally?
"fastboot getvar product" to get the KF to stick with fastboot mode when it's loading the bootloader.
"fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" very important to double check the file hash to make sure it's not corrupt.
"fastboot reboot" only in case it doesn't automatically reboot on its own.
EDIT: Keep in mind fastboot mode uses a different set of drivers, so you may have to install those as well (included in KFU, along the ADB ones).

Kindle Fire bricked - stuck on logo

Hi.
I tried to install cyanogenmod on my Kindle Fire. Unfortunately, my device has been bricked....
First of all, I installed sdk manager with platform tools and google usb driver. I did everything to computer can work with Kindle Fire (finally I used "Kindle Fire Driver" pack because when I want to install driver by "Kindle Fire Utility" I can see error, because I haven't english version of Windows).
In the end I turned on "Kindle Fire Utility", I connected device to computer. Device was seen in the computer and "KFU". Then I gave a command to install root and superuser. After this command, I read my device will be relaunch in fastboot mode. KFU tried to download and install
TWRP, but it wasn't complete, because "KFU" couldn't connect with server. Application finished work and my Kindle Fire has been frozen. Now I can see only "Kindle Fire" logo. When I connect Kindle Fire, computer don't recognize it.
What Can I Do? I read that device is again and again in fastboot mode. What should I do to bring this device to life?
I read any command, but I can't do nothing, because computer can't see device.
Please, help me . Thanks in advance and best regards.
And...sorry for my english, I hope You'll understand me.

If i am correct, you should be able to turn it off by holding the power button until the screen turns black while stuck... then just reboot normally.
Thanks for reply. Unfortunately each time when I turn on device, it's stuck on logo .
Edit: When I turn on KF I can see Kindle Fire logo all time, it doesn't disappear.

Sorry, im sort of new here so i kinda guessed. :/
I hope someone else sees this thread.
EDIT:There may be hope! According to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832812 . He has the same problem... try booting into the recovery menu then clear the cache.
The problem is my device has stock bootloader installed, so I can't do this .
I will read some articles, maybe I bring this device to life, but I'm losing hope. Drivers are installed correctly (I think so) and computer recognized unknown device (with problems) - I can't do nothing.

look
go back to the kindle fire utility and choose option 1 then choose the option with the 4000 number and thats it.
Ok, you're right! Kindle Fire change bootmode from 4000 (normal) to fastboot (4002). When I plug and unplug device, computer doesn't recognize it. But when I turn on device and connect to computer - it works! I can see ADB Composite ADB Interface.
Thanks for all reply .

Is it up and running m8?:good:
I'm having this same problem with the computer not recognizing the kindle as it is stuck on the boot screen. However, nothing I do gets the computer to recognize that the KF is plugged in. Further, after initially only being frozen on the KF boot screen, now when I plug in the KF it just flashes the "Kindle Fire" screen over and over, shutting itself on and off in an endless loop. Computer can't recognize the KF, none of the utilities pick it up and I don't know how to go back and uninstall the drives because the device itself won't even show up on my computer. Everyone who has this boot screen problem seems to fix it by changing to or from fastboot, but my device doesn't seem to be able to communicate with the computer at all any more. Suggestions?

[Q] Problems with rooting Kindle fire

Hi,
sorry in advance for my English - I am from Germany...
Maybe this is a stupid one but I am struggeling with rooting my kindle fire. Before running the installing_drivers.bat the Kindle was shown as 'Kindle' in the device manager after installing the drivers as 'Android Composite ADB Interface' which seems to be correct.
After starting run.bat I always get the following messages:
ooops... something went wrong
We are unable to locate your Kindle Fire.
Make sure it is plugged in and powered on.
trwp.img has been found.
fff.bin has been found.
Fastboot uses a different device than ADB
you should check device manager for Kindle or Amazon
if you see it rerun the driver installer that came packaged with KFU
installing FFF
#waiting for device#
now - nothing happens any more. Any idea what went wrong or what kind of mistake I made? (The kindle is plugged in an powered on )
Thanks for your support
Kerstin

When you start kfu with your device plugged in it should indicate the status of the device, whether its online or offline and the boot status. This is a first gen kindle fire isn`t it?

And exactly that is the problem, it showed the device online the very first time I tried it but also showed this 'oooops.... something went wrong, we are unable to locate your kindle fire' in the beginning. It stuck with the message 'waiting for device'. after an hour or so I disconnected the device and gave it another try since that time I always get the above described message and do not get any more to the info if device is on or offline. Attached a screenshot of the failure message. :crying:
And yes it is a first gen.

KFU failed, kindle bricked, help please!

I never rooted a device before and I have been wanting to access google play on my kindle. Earlier today I discovered KFU. The first thing I did with it was the root option. After a few reboots, KFU said "waiting for device" and nothing else happened. Also my computer no longer recognizes my kindle fire. What should I do?
Important Information:
Yes, I have a first gen kindle fire.
I kept on getting a corrupted KFU zip when I downloaded it. I thought I fixed it when a use a zip fixer tool.
I got the KFU from the guild from this forum.
All the version I download had the same problem when unzipping, corruption.
I am a noob at this since I never done this before, I wan to make this clear, so don't assume much when responding please.
I have eclipse and I have downloaded all the necessary files from the SDK manager and more since I use eclipse for college.
My computer uses windows 8.
I have a windows 7 vm.
I used the KFU on windows 8, I now realized I should have done it on the vm.
Before I tried to root it, I made a backuped all the files located within it.
Almost forgot to mention that it no longer goes past the kindle fire logo when I restart it.
I don't know if this is enough information, so feel free to ask anything.
what do you use to backup your files?
did you try to restore your device using your backup files?

that makes it more difficult, probably because you repaired the KFU zip
try fixing drivers, then try
redownload KFU from the Mega link
connect Kindle
run KFU's run.bat
select install twrp
if nothing happens, may need to power down kindle, and power back on
may need to restart KFU a few times
if that does not work
may need to use fastboot manually see my Fastboot.exe with Windows Command Prompt
did you try to open your kindle by pressing your power button for about 15 - 20 sec.?
for your Kindle Fire Utility problem i think you need to ask that to their thread

You didn't listen to me. My kindle won't connect to the computer any more since it can't finish booting. Meaning I can't install anything on it. The kindle drivers are fine. The kindle is half rooted due to the rooting fail.
Frequently Asked Questions - Amazon Kindle Fire
Q16: What does it mean when my device is stuck at the Kindle Fire logo?
It depends on which Kindle Fire logo you're talking about. If you're talking about the Kindle Fire logo that stays brightly lit without any change in brightness, it means the device is in fastboot mode. Just change the bootmode to normal or recovery and reboot. If you are unable to change the bootmode, then you need to fix your drivers. If the Kindle Fire logo you're talking about flashes and goes dim after being brightly lit for a few seconds, then your device is trying to boot normally to a malfunctioning operating system, likely caused by not wiping the data partition (factory reset) before flashing a ROM. If that's the case, you will likely need a factory cable to get into fastboot mode so you can access or (if needed) install custom recovery, then reinstall a ROM properly.
