Bricked, Crashed, Corrupted? Really lost - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
the reason I'm starting this thread is because after two days of trying to solve my issue by reading threads and trying various things, I'm still stuck. The scenario is this, my Kindle Fire HD is stuck at teamwin screen and I cannot access TWRP. I have no idea if this is soft-bricked or corrupted or whatever. What happens when I switch on the tablet is that I get the orange Kindle Fire logo, then the blue Kindle Fire logo and then teamwin screen which flashes every 5 seconds and is stuck there.

During this process, the Device Manager from Windows 8.1 successfully recognizes the tablet as 'Android Composite ADB Interface'
If I start CMD as Admin mode and key in 'adb kill-server' and then 'adb devices' I can see the device listed as '0123456789ABCDEF recovery'
Another issue is that when I go into 'adb shell', all the commands I type, I get '/sbin/sh: command not found'. I also tried 'KindleUnbrickV1.1.jar', but every option I select I get <waiting for device> and stays like that. I left it overnight.
I also tried Kindle Fire Utility, but was unsuccessful as well.
At this point I don't think there's anything else I could do and I guess it's time to say goodbye to my little fella. At least managed to finish univ with it.
If anyone has some opinions or suggestion, you're more than welcome to do so and they will be highly appreciated. By the way, I don't have any important data on the tablet so it's ok if I need to format it without taking backups.
Kind regards,

7 in or 8.9 in?

Generic Allwinner A13 tablet ADB problems

Right so I got this cheap Tablet for a friends birthday, He's not one for tinkering and his girlfriend who I picked it up for asked me to get it set-up ready for him to just use as a net surfer/occasional game device/Media slate.
Before I start, I have USB Debugging on, Unknown Sources etc all turned on.

I wanted to root the device, remove some of the pre-installed bloatware and just all-in-all tidy it up a little. After doing some research I discovered a thread containing "Generic A13 Tablet rooting" or something of that nature.. The first indication that there could be a problem with it was when installing all but "Android Device" driver was installed. I unplugged, uninstalled and basically tried everything including the PDAnet program.. I then discovered a link which had a driver to install. This appeared to have worked.
The PDANet program finished installing and never asked what Device I had..??
I brushed this to one side and checked ADB Devices; This just showed me the following.
Code:
ADB Devices
List of Devices;
There are no devices showing, I then thought Oh maybe its ADB.. I checked my Nexus, HTC Wildfire and my XPERIA Play, They all show up.
I then followed the guide to root the device using Doomlords Xperia Rooter, it starts.. and hangs at "Waiting for Devices".
I have been trying to do this for about an hour or two and I'm getting no-where fast.. Help!
Its an Allwinner A13 Tablet (with HDMI) also known as the Q88 A13 with HDMI
Can any body find driver or help us to find ?
Hi to all.
I have this problem with "Pierre Cardin PC704" too.
this tablet have A13 SOC too.
Can any body find driver or help us to find ?
TNX alot ^_^

[Q] CM7 To Stock ROM Error

I was running CM7 on my KF and I wanted to get back to stock. I placed the Amazon factory software update.zip on the root of sd and followed all normal flashing steps. I did not flash. No I am trying to get it back on through adb and fastboot, but every step of the process comes back with:
exec '/system/bin/sh' failed:no such file or directory
I cannot do anything, except access TWRP. If I boot normal, it stays at Kindle Fire (blue) boot screen.
What are my options?
factory cable or usbboot
The former would be your best option IMO
Here is an update
I tinkered for a few hours and have the original Kindle Fire logo back, but that is as far as it goes. Using KFU, I get this, view attachment

You turn the device off, then plug it in...voila, fastboot mode.
Help!
I received my factory cable today in the mail, but i am unsure of where to start. What utility should a use to get anything (preferably, kindle stock software) to happen. I only get two screens: either kindle logo OR black screen.

[Q] Anyone online to help me with a semi-bricked Z?

Hello!
I have an HTC Desire Z stuck in bootloop.
It's an unrooted, S-ON version.
I have tried the PC10IMG.ZIP via SD card route to no avail - don't know if that's because I couldn't find the right RUU. It seemed to get stuck at user data deletion.
I've now downloaded ADB and fastboot and managed to get the device recognised, but I have no idea how to go on. (All very new to me!) I am also having difficulties finding the right RUU/ROM for this. I *think* I found it on htcdev.com as 2.42.405.4, although it's in a tar.gz extension that I am not sure how to extract.
Another issue is that occasionally whilst in fastboot the phone seems to time out / switch off for no particular reason. It shouldn't be a battery issue but I am letting it charge for a bit just in case.

Anyone has any idea of how to progress? Would reeeeally appreciate it!
Erratic progress from yesterday:
* Have managed to extract the folder from HTCdev, but I don't see anything I immediately recognise as a ROM and therefore I am still stuck
* Would be happy attempting some of the recovery modes, but I don't understand if they work on S-ON, and if not if there is a way to bring the phone to S-OFF via adb or fastboot. And a hand-hold on selecting a recovery would be LURVLY.
Apolz for being such a noob, but considering I didn't even know what "rooted" meant yesterday, I feel emboldened
Next, I tried this system: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572924
I get an error "Can't open /cache/recovery/command" - this is actually an error I have been getting very often
I tried manufacturing the folder and leaving it empty but it didn't make an iota of difference.
When I run the update I get an "Invalid operation" message and then it just reboots (i.e. gets stuck on HTC logo)

Stuck on blue and white, can't fastboot/adb as "waiting for device"

Hello Guys! Please please can anyone help???
:crying:Sorry for this, I have looked and looked for a solution to this, many have asked and no-one seemed to solve it.
Kindle Fire HD 8.9", I think I accidentally deleted the OS in recovery, and now I'm stuck on the blue and white boot screen (so i have fff bootloader). If I switch it off and plug it into the windows 7 pc, it goes orange, then blue boot and sticks there.
I devices, it showed up as "Kindle", I followed instructions to install adb drivers - install java, install android sdk, lookup hardware id and paste it into android_winusb.inf, type 0x1949 into adb_usb.ini, and install drivers from google folder.
So I've got it showing up as Android Composite ADB device.
If I do "adb devices" in a command prompt it shows as 12345ABCDEFG or something as "unauthorised device".
Any fastboot commands just get "waiting for device"
At one point windows tried to install drivers for jem....., but then gave up and I can't get it to try again!
I've tried on 3 different pc's windows 8 64 bit, windows 7 32 and 64 bit.
Tried disabling all antivirus etc, tried disabling driver signature enforcement.
Does anyone at all have a solution to this?
I've done adb kill-server about a hundred times!
Many thanks for looking!
Sally
I've tried 6 different cables too, and all the pcs have been restarted several times

Is this wrong maybe?

Fastboot Flash Failed

Device: Moto G6 Play (XT1922-2) from the UK
While using the device, it suddenly got really hot and then turned off, tried restarting it, after it cooled down a bit, but in vain.
When turned on again, the "Startup Failed" screen appears. I tried Motorola's "Rescue and Smart assistant" to solve the problem and followed the procedure. While fastboot was being flashed, it stuck on 67% and then it said "Fastboot flash failed".
Tried again, but every time there were different new messages (sometimes the device was not recognised, sometimes says "Model name missing" etc).
I then did a bit of research online and the general gist I got is to reinstall AndroidOS with Minimal ADB.
I'm just unsure which method to use as there are several methods for several versions (e.g. there are several XT****-*s). Also, I'm not sure because youtube demonstrators were using working devices and the screen of my device is very different than the others (Neither the green Android Bot nor I could use the volume up/down button to access modes)
Please excuse my lack of technical ability and I hope I could explain the whole scenario. I am also new to XDA so excuse the lack of general tradition on this site.
Now, the question I want to ask is this: If it is possible to unbrick (I'm thinking it got bricked), if so how? Also, does it matter which stock firmware is installed? (Like what's the difference between XT1922-2 and XY1922-7 for example, just curious) Also, the device doesn't power up anymore. The screens only appear when micro-USB is connected.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hello sir
