I very stupidly followed this guide to restore my old Kindle Fire HD 2nd Generation to stock (androidcowboy.com/2013/06/how-to-return-kindle-fire-hd-to-stock/), without checking that it was actually for the 2nd generation Kindle Fire HD.
All in all, I've just gone from a perfectly working device with firefirefire and a (rather slow) Lollipop ROM (Beanstalk), to a (seemingly) bricked device.
The flash seems to have replaced everything (although I selected the first option in KFHD Restore Tool), including firefirefire, and now the device is in a constant boot loop:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The device isn't responding to anything on USB, no button combinations (except turning on/off/reset), nothing.
I know there's a way to force it into fastboot mode since I've done it before with a button combination, but perhaps that was that with firefirefire, which was wiped (when I didn't tell the KFHD Restore Tool to - only told it to wipe and install the system and not touch the recovery, hmm...).
Was thinking about the possibility of forcing fastboot with a fastboot cable, but I haven't found any evidence the fastboot cable works with KFHD 2nd generation.
Is this well and truely the end for this device?
Bump?

Just buy the fastboot cable or build one yourself to push the correct files back in it.

i have a fire phone that i installed safestrap 4.01 for customized rom installation,
but i now want to sell the phone and want to reset the phone to the original stock rom.
however, even after i flashed the stock rom, i still have this splash screen of safestrap that shows two buttons: recovery and continue at the bottom.
so how can i remove this splash screen?
i searched quite extensively, but could not find a solution that works....
thanks!
It's quite easy and fast to accomplish (with a rooted device):
You need to have the safestrap app installed, within the app ---> tap on "uninstall recovery", reboot to see the result and finally remove the safestrap app from the device.
Afterwards, you can either unroot your device or sideload Fire OS again, if you want to sell it "untampered".

I tried to follow the instructions throu the lg's website in order to unlock the bootloader of my phone (i installed adb and all) but my phone seems to be stuck in the fastboot menu. I never rooted it, i never flashed anything, it was always working (never stuck in bootloop) and now i get this. When i type in cmd "adb reboot bootloader" it works, but when im going to type "fastboot oem device-id" which is the next step, it doesnt do anything and the cmd says <waiting for the device> so i think that my phone gets stuck/freezes. However, if i open its back and remove the battery and place it again its all working (normal boot) like nothing happened. But when i try to do my job throu the fastboost mode i see nothing but only this:

}
EDIT: solved, i uninstalled the drivers from the pc and i let windows update install them for me.
Boot to twrp and flash a rom from sd or fix with lgup or flash tool in dl mode as stated you have the lg logo so u should still have those modes as you only deleted OS.
Greetings friends, I've come to you asking for aid to get this P6 back to working, this is a P6 my cousin bought to an operator here in my country (Venezuela) several years ago, after years of use the phone stopped working for him and it's stuck on the android logo and then it reboots itself until the battery is drained i guess, i did a little research in this forum and found out people with a very similar problem, to which I understand I should try flashing a rom with the 3 method buttons, now, the thing is, I get to the recovery using the 3 method buttons but all i get is this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

I tried putting a rom into SD card but i i keep getting the FAIL thing, so when i try using ADB to flash a TWRP Recovery i don't get the PC or ADB to recognize the device, when i type "adb devices" it gets stuck on "< waiting for any device >" and thats where i am right now and i dont know what else to do or how to flash twrp since i can't get adb to recognize the device, any suggestion or help? thanks in advance for your answers and help
What you need is a custom recovery installed which would allow you to wipe the phone clean and then install all from scratch.
Hello guys,
I have an OEM EU (I guess) H815 with unlocked bootloader (running rooted stock firmware + TWRP before). I did something stupid and bricked my G4 by doing a full wipe in TWRP before, without thinking to much. Apparently I managed to delete Recovery and the System partitions. At least I can no longer enter Recovery (even though I was not aware TWRP can delete itself before?)
Now, I am a bit lost. How can I unbrick my phone? I thought about flashing TWRP again through fastboot as a start. However, I don't seem to be able to enter the download mode anymore. I tried to boot the phone by pressing vol up + power, or vol down + power, and so on but nothing. I am stuck in the boot screen forever (see image)

Any advises?
On a second note: how would I flash stock (only) again through fastboot / TWRP? I don't seem to be able to find flashable zip/img files for either TWRP or fastboot, only the full image( https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h815-nougat-stock-t3659860 )
Thanks!

I have similar problem in here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/help/m9-issues-update-t3844249
Except that download mode does not reboot in circles but says this: (and my status is Locked)
maybe my problem is deeper and harder i think
Is there a custom recovery there? Have you tried to install one and see if it sticks?
If not, then the emmc might be dead.
