Kindle fire HD 8.9 very early edition: (no exsd card)
It was rooted and N2A installed long time ago with TWRP recovery...
Installed an incompatible APP lately that just kept messing everything up, did a backup, tried a couple updates and Roms that weren't the best...
Reinstalled my back up and messed with it again... THEN I MESSED UP!!!
Went into TWRP and started factory wipe but decided (at the wrong time of night) to wipe too many things... FORGOT MY BACKUP WAS INTERNAL... Kindle didn't have an SD card like my other tablets do...
So now EVERYTHING is wiped but I can boot into TWRP, BUT, when I plug the USB in windows doesn't recognize the device anymore...
Do I even have any options? Can I get anything back on my device???
if you have adb installed (https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/). you can use the command "adb push *file path* /sdcard/" that way you can transfer whatever you need over.
And it worked!!!!!!!!! yeah, once I figured out exactly how to type the complete command correctly... geeezzz TNX

Hey guys, trying to root this kindle for my friend. Ive two so far. I dunno what happened but I'm stuck in TWRP. I was using kindle fire utility 0.9.6 did option 2 to install super user, then went to option 3 and it froze up so I powered on and off, now the fire is booting into this TWRP and I have no idea how to install the hellfile rom that I want. the ROM is not on the sd card and I can't get it to mount so I can view it on my computer when plugged in.
i need help!!!
UPDATE*
I just ran # 4 while rebooting and it seemed to install CWR..now I'm back to what appears to be stock kindle software. wtfff is going on
you definately do not want cwmr...
Did the ROM maybe go to a download folder? Once you get into twrp do a backup first thing then factory wipe, wipe(not format) cache and dalvik. Then hit install and browse the files/folders until you find your ROM and install. Reboot system. And yeah...dump cwm.
And you should really try installing su thru the recovery and try your hand at adb..
I've successfully rooted my Kindle Fire HD 8.9" and installed TWRP. I then put the zip file provided by Hashcode onto my device, wiped my cache and dalvik cache, and proceeded to install the new ROM.
After a successful install, I rebooted. It optimizes 65 installed apps, and then reboots again. An hour later the Cyanogen Mod logo is still spinning. I figured that was long enough to assume something went wrong. I powered down, went into TWRP and tried to mount storage so I could replace the Cm10.1 file with my backup files to go back to Stock. I'm receiving the following error when trying to mount storage though:
Code:
E:Unable to locate volume information for USB storage mode.
So I attempted using ADB Sideload, but at no point have I managed to get my Kindle recognized by the ADB server. I appear to be in some hell where my device still "works," but I have no way to put anything on it to fix it.
My last option appears to be fastboot. I am able to get into fastboot mode on the Kindle, though I don't know what to do with it. I'm familiar with all the other steps from my original Kindle Fire, but I never got this deep into it. Wanted to see if someone could give me some direction before I really break this thing.
Update: Alright, so between the FAQ (Item 11) and Hashcode's instructions on restoring backups I've managed to get my Kindle back to stock. I panicked and posted prematurely, so sorry for crapping up the forum. Shout outs to Hashcode and Soupmagnet for their posts.
So, long story short. customer walks in with a completely wiped kindle fire. system and all. This is what i did to try and get it going
1. I ran kindle fire utility 0.9.9
2. twrp 2.6 and Fire fire FIRE!!
3. pushed custom rom through ADB to SD Card succesfully (tried to install no luck)
4. pushed stock rom through adb to sd card successfuly (tried to install this one also no luck)
when i install the roms throught TWRP i get
"simulating actions..."
"updating partition details..."
and the install bar at the bottom completes the process in less than 3 seconds.. when i attempt to reboot it says "no os found"
Kindlefire model is D01400 so it's first gen from what i read
sidenote... i am able to push files through ADB but, i'm unable to mount storage. my computer doesn't recognize it as a memory card..
any help would be greatly appreciated.. i've been searching for hours..

When you push files to the device, reboot and see if they're still there.

Thank you for responding.. yes, the files are there.
I found out what was wrong on my last attempt before i went home for the night.
On the advanced options i had the "test" check mark on.. unchecked it and problem solved.. Got it up and running.. 4 hours of research = 1 checkmark off ha.. lesson learned.
Please help!
I've been messing around with a Kindle Fire 2, and I have TWRP 2.3.3.0 installed. I was running Cyanogenmod until I accidentally wiped /system. When I try to reboot, it says in big capital letters that there is no OS installed. I've never gotten out of TWRP because I was afraid I won't be able to come back into it.
I tried to adb sideload and push and all of those great stuff, but it said, "failed to write data protocol fault". I'm guessing the partitions are all messed up. I checked the forums and most were outdated, so I'm posting a new question.
I was thinking about the "Partition SD Card" feature on TWRP, but will it work? What can happen and how do I set it up?
Thanks in advance!
I am not positive but you may just need a more updated adb program for your PC, try the version in my wallpaper fix.

Whenever I wiped my kf2 out and forgot to put a rom on the sdcard part I would hook it up to my pc with adb and use "adp push romname.zip /sdcard"
Try wiping your sdcard and retry adb push from your pc.
when evrything fails try to flash a stock image via fastboot
I have a Kindle Fire 2011 1st gen. I got TWRP on it and had a hell of a time trying to get a ROM flashed or anything like that. I did follow a write up on here how to root it, and it worked. But it was still kindle and just looked like android. So i tried to flash CM11.... I accidently deleted the partition with everything on it, and flashed CW11 but i used OtterX, and it wont boot. I have a fast boot cable, but I cant get the PC to recognize its plugged in so i can get anything on it and try to flash again. What can i do? How do i fix this?!? Please help me!!
It was still kindle and just looked like android? All you're doing when you flash a rom is putting standard android on it, so it should look like android. If the fast boot cable you're referring to is a custom order "factory" cable it won't let you transfer a rom, the point of the cable is for bad issues that won't let you boot back into recovery. I'm guessing you didn't delete the partition since you're wanting to copy a rom over, you just formatted it and erased the rom file, correct? Use a standard usb cable, micro b, that fits the kindle. Plug it in. Boot the kindle into recovery. Find the option in recovery to "mount usb" or "mount mass storage". This will show it on the pc as a mass storage device you can copy a rom to. If however you did the otterx conversion, in other words you didn't just try to install an otterx rom on standard recovery and partitions, then you won't have the option of using the usb mount. You will have to go through the adb push method, which I don't remember, but there are other topics on this forum that explain how to access the adb (android debug) and use the push command as well as others. Good luck and if you get it fixed be more careful next time. If you aren't familiar with how to do these processes you can easily brick your device. Read research and read again to be sure you have all the steps down!
I have been up for HOURS trying to fix it. I used a Kindle Utility Tool and rooted. It Installed some google apps after SU... At this point when using usb the Kindle would show up in "my computer" so i put cm11 on it. Tryed to flash it and it wouldnt work. I deleted something and now all the OS are gone. It says it. When j try to boot it stays stuck on the screen. I can pick to boot recovery but even when i abd push roms. Cm11 and stock kindle os it wont flasb then because of E: partitions not there.
I dont have any idea whats left to try. I really tried everything i could find.!! Now it dosent show up on "my computer" anymore... its like. Gone gone!!!!
I need to figure out a way to get it to work. I need to find out how to add partitions first i guess.... i got twrp and thats like it... i cant get a boot.img to flash. Nothing....
I need some serious help. I gotta fix this atleast back to amazon kindle os before they find out i broke it. Lol
