Hello
I accidentally flashed fff.zip and not fff.bin and my kindle won't do anything.
I tried holding the power button for a minute and tried again - nothing.
Tried to charge and the orange light won;t even turn on.
I really f****d up this time

I really have bricked my phone.
I flashed with fastboot a corrupt alpharev patch of the n1table (not their fault).
Wiped with clockwork.
Then installed my nandroid
And it never started up again. I don't remember seeing the s-off joker flash screen, or anything.
I have no Bootloader, HBOOT, or excess to recovery.
Power on with Vol up= Nothing
Power on with vol down = Nothing
Power on with back button = Nothing
Only thing I have to say that it has a little life in it, is when I pull the battery, put it back in then connect the usb cable I will get the charge led come on. It also changes from Orange to Green. But as soon as power button is pressed, LED goes off and then there is nothing.
adb devices , brings nothing.
So have I got a paperweight, or do you think that there is a way around this? How can I get a HBOOT back on?
Any help is good help! Thanks for all help

what how i do? tell me please
I have the same problem.
I flashed HBOOT (cm7r2), reboot phone and phone died.
Now the phone is not turned on.
If you remove the battery and connect the charger, then the LED flashes green / orange color all a time.
If you connect the charger when inserting the battery, the LED will light green.
Then try to turn on phone, it will be just a black screen only.
If try turn on phone VolDown+PowerButton, then black screen too.
Turn off your phone and Press and hold back + power button and this will go to bootloader. Then fastboot. Is it working that way?

No, it does not work.
Bootloader is broken completely.
How i repair it over USB, but I have no box (OCTOPUS, Medusa, RIFF or other)?
anyone have any way?
Anybody can tell whether there is for this phone JTAG over USB without solder testpoint ?
There are free programs to flash bootloader?
UPD: Solved with RIFF box.
Hello,
1st ever post. I tried to root my KF. During root lost power, when power restored got the yellow triangle of death. Was able to enter TWRP, while trying to restore, lost power again. Unfortunately now for me, I am unable to turn the KF on so that I can work on restoring it.
I have tried to power cycle it many times. Holding power button for 20 secs and what not. No effect. I have left my KF plugged in for over 8 hours to charge the battery with the stock charger. Have retried to hold power button with no effect.
I know that once I get my KF to turn on I will be able to fix this but I am at a loss. Multiple Google searches have not come up with out any luck.
Please help if you can.
Thanks
Tater

I had a similar problem, though I did not end up losing power. When I found myself in a boot loop, I plugged in so that I wouldn't lose too much power while I was figuring out what was going on.
In my case, if I remember correctly, I had somehow managed to put my Kindle in a fastboot mode[1] that allowed me to do a few useful things before I had root[2], but was still in fastboot mode. After about four days of wondering how on earth I was going to sort out this brand new electronic brick I'd been given, I decided to try reading up on how to use fastboot. I don't remember which command I used (sorry, too many weeks and too much sleep deprivation have passed!), but I think it may have been "continue".
[1.] Yeah, somehow. Could have been automated by the root script I probably shouldn't have used (I probably didn't read enough directions before proceeding), could have been when I was trying to use fastboot to do something or other. See footnote 2.
[2.] ...like install the bootloader and recovery.

I would certainly do those things, but i can't even turn the unit on for the comouter to notice that i have aperipheral plugged in... in this lies the problem.

Your bootloader is shot. You need to look into Firekit, usbboot and the "shorting trick".
Ok folks, normally I figure these things out but this one has me a bit concerned.
I was in ViperROM HUB and installed a font package, it needed to restart in recovery to install, so I allowed it. I turned to my computer and when I next looked at my phone the screen is off and refuses to come on. When depress the power button I get a vibration feedback but the screen won't come on. I tried VOL DOWN and POWER but nothing is happening. Im gonna let the battery run dead and see if that will resolve it.
Has anyone encountered anything like this before?

Hey!
I dont think its bricked.
Ghost helped me out with my problem, see below solution.
Try holding POWER + VOLUME UP for 20 seconds and it should restart.
However my case was different I was stuck in HTC logo screen and no way to restart.
On the M8 it is Power and Vol Up to perform a "battery pull".

Thanks grega_slo and gaiden0000 for the quick response and spot on advice.
I did that before but it didn't work, it works now…guess I didn't hold VOL UP long enough.
Yeah I didn`t know about VOLUP either
It scared the crap out of me when I S-OFFed the device and was stuck haha

having the same problem. flashed cyanogen nightly and when it rebooted got to the splash and then black. nothing. none of the above methods seems to bring it back. I can hold the power and vol up and get the splash to reappear but still goes to black. any thoughts of have I really bricked this phone?

Put the usb cable in then press vol up and power until it restarts. As soon as you hear the ding on your pc press and hold vol down and power, you should then boot into hboot MENU.

never seem to hear a 'ding' or any other sound but no matter how I time it - power/vol up then power/vol down still results in htc splash then just black. Phone was quite warm (not quite hot) when I went to bed last night and this morning battery was at "0". When I first plugged it in and pushed the power button it alternated from the battery charging display to the TWRP locked screen but I couldn't seem to get it to stay on the TWRP screen no matter what I did. Now that I've used power/vol up I don't seem to get the battery or TWRP. just black or when trying power/vol up I get the splash. Power/vol down gives nothing - just black
EDIT: Just tried - let battery go dead. Plug in to computer hold power/vol down. Screen goes from battery icon to blank and back to battery icon.
EDIT: Pulled and reformatted sd card in Evo 4g LTE. Retried fastboot command still just shows "waiting for device". Even tried adb reboot bootloader and reply "device not found"
Could I use adb to reflash ruu? If so would the command be adb flash (filename)
Was beginning to lose hope of ever fixing this but a HUGE shout out to Simer03 who provided the critical piece of information - namely - add a ROM zip to your sd card. Hope nobody else ever has this problem but just in case

Nothing is going to work unless you can either enter the boot loader or boot into the os.
You should still be able to access hboot unless that is corrupt. At the very least you need to hear the ding on your pc so you know the pc has recognized your device is connected.
Try again with vol up and power, hold until it reboots you should then hear that ding. If not check you have the necessary usb drivers installed on your pc or try a different usb cable.
I have a second generation Kindle Fire hd, and after I press the power button it shows the Kindle Fire logo then shuts off completely. I tried holding the power button for 30 seconds to see if it would turn on and no luck. I also received a factory cable to see if that would help, but once it loads into fastboot mode it shuts off.
I'm not exactly sure what the problem could be, maybe a dead battery? I just wanted to know if anyone could shed some light on this please?
Are you able to boot into recovery? Press and hold the volume up button (the one nearest the camera) while the kindle's booting (and keep holding it until 1 second after the blue Kindle Fire logo appears), and it should launch TWRP or CWM if Hashcode's 2nd bootloader is flashed.

Try plugging the kindle into a wall outlet and leaving it overnight to charge. Perhaps a dead battery's causing your issue? (if that were the case, you would see a red battery logo every time you try to boot it.)

I'll give it a try.I also saw that it might be the bootloader but only thing is if I flash it I might brick my device since it'll shut off.

Unless you're planning on flashing a new bootloader, then you shouldn't worry too much about bricking - I'm fairly certain most ROM zips only wipe and modify /system and boot partitions (and maybe user partitions), so the bootloader remains intact and still permits you to reboot into fastboot in an emergency. However, I would also avoid flashing until the sudden power off issue is remediated.
When and how did this issue first appear, and have you been able to bypass it in any way?
I started having this problem after I flashed hashcode's new Lolipop build. This was when it was first released. Since then I haven't been able to bypass it in anyway.

Does your power button light up when charging? You may have a broken USB port.

Whoops - I confused the 2nd gen KF with the HD 7". Try holding the power button down for about 10 seconds, then press it again to try to get it to boot normally.
