Sorry for the double post, but I managed to get CM7 back up on my Fire, and managed to regain SU access. Can anyone point me to a guide to restoring it back to its former "glory" so I can return it?

Fixed it!!

For anyone interested, this is what worked for me;

From where I ended up with the problem, I followed hachiueno's advice and read through the KFU's thread as well as the TWRP thread on Rootzwiki, that led me to adding those lines to the device firmware, which I think was the first step in the solution, so...

Step 1. Add

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0100

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0100&MI_01

to android_winusb.inf , then restart your computer with your Fire unplugged.

After that, I was inspired, through reading the KFU thread, to attempt to manually install CM7 since I wasn't having much luck zergRushing on my own, so, I went to the CM7 thread and pushed the Update.zip there, and used my TWRP to install that, effectively rebuilding my filestructure, since it seems the Kindle Fire doesn't have so much as a SH folder in it.

Step 2. MANUALLY (maybe) install CM7 if you can.

Once I got CM7 up and working, using the USB mounting option, I replaced the update.zip in the sdcard folder with the Amazon 6.2 firmware downloaded from their website, renamed to update.zip, and then unmounted my fire from my laptop.

Step 3. Download the Amazon 6.2 Firmware from amazon's website (I can't post...), rename it to update.zip, and replace the CM7 mod update.zip in your /sdcard directory with it.

Then, I figured if I ran TWRP like it was supposed to run, and just ran the update.zip like any other ROM, it should fill in the blanks in the filesstructure, bypassing Amazon's own lack of certain folders, and various other things, filling in the gaps as they were. The next step might be entirely redundant, since I'm a bit clueless, and it might have been entirely luck on my part, but I initially forgot to wipe my cache, devlak cache, and system restore, so I did all that and did it again, and my wishful thinking leads me to believe that doing that saved my ass from having a crapton of errors....

Step 4. Using the install function on TWRP, install the renamed Amazon update.zip, reboot, clear your cache, devlak cache, system reformat, then reinstall the update.zip. Reboot one more time, and you should come up to the Kindle Fire splash screen. Leave it for a few minutes, and it'll be like it just came out of the box.

Thanks for all your help. I love you. Seriously. No homo. Maybe a little. I love you.
[Kindle Fire General] hachiueno:
Good to hear that you managed to boot it again!

This guide seems to be an easy solution to this. However, no one has replied any success or failure, so not sure if it's 100% bulletproof for everyone... if I were you, I would follow JackpotClavin's guide here. He's a known developer here and knows what he's doing, and many successful replies from users having used this method... so yeah, just to be 'sure' (can you ever be...?) that you won't experience any further problems, I recommend the last one.
[Kindle Fire General] isjonamon:
I actually used the first guide in order to get the Amazon update, but couldn't post a reply since I'm still a noob. :( I had to do a few things differently, and ultimately got a few different results, but posted up my own version of the steps.

Once again, thanks for all your help!
[Kindle Fire General] Sheolrock:
It seems to me that the majority of problems people are having are driver related. When I was using KFU to install TWRP it stalled half way through and just said waiting for device. Just had to install drivers again and it happily completed the install.
[Kindle Fire General] smirkis:
all u needed do initially was change bootmode it seemed. thrn u went and did all kinds of stuff that wasnt necessary.

sent from my kindle fire
[Kindle Fire General] isjonamon:
I actually changed bootmodes quite frequently, following multiple threads and guides, changing from recovery, to normal, to fastboot, and back and forth when called for. Changing to fastboot stuck me in an eternal fastboot loop, changing to normal reverted me to a recovery loop, and recovery was the only bootmode I could access adb from.

Driver issues seemed to be part of the problem for me, but just updating the drivers didn't fix the issue entirely. I'm jealous that you got it to work with just a driver update...
[Kindle Fire General] XxTucker3609xX:
Hey i believe im in the same problem but i keep reading the posts and im still stuck and i have no idea what to do im worried that i cant fix it.... Some please help me ASAP

Thanks in advance
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
wrong boot mode ?

with adb:

adb shell su -c "idme bootmode 4000"

adb reboot

with fastboot:

fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

fastboot reboot

bad drivers ?

[Kindle Fire General] xpolicy:
I have had the looping problem and none of these would fix it. I got it to work by adding those lines to android_winusb and running the run.bat, trying to make it switch to normal mode as the kindle was turning on. Somewhere along the yellow triangle when it was loading it accepted the command from KFU. Hope this helps, only thing that worked for me.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
the drivers i included contain all the necessary entries in adb_usb.ini and android_winusb.inf
[Kindle Fire General] awidawad:
Please can someone help me!?

I did idme bootmode 4002 and now my fire won't boot up or show up in android adb. Any solution?:eek::eek::eek:
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
you switched it to fastboot (4002) - adb commands are not working in fastboot mode !

little guide:
[Kindle Fire General] McAwesome:
Not sure if this is totally helpful to anyone but originally I thought the thread was started with a posting of being stuck bootlooping into twrp in recovery mode with a complete loss of file structure. I had this same issue my Kindle would not start in anything but straight to twrp and if I tried to flash my CM9 ICS rom it was not there and only the twrp folder empty was. So I went to mount and mounted usb storage and moved the stock update zip file from amazon to the twrp folder and flashed that. Worked like a charm now I appear to be straight stock. I am no developer of this stuff I just am a bit of a tinkerer so don't understand all the code stuff but it starts like a normal kindle and appears totally stock. So hopefuly that helps you return your deice to stock for return or to continue wahtever modifications you intend.

Since this is device specific and doable with software it is more appropriate in the E3D section.

Have you checked the init scripts to see if anything is mentioned in there about it?
[HTC EVO 3D] 6foot7foot:
its an infared led, unless you can change your dna and grow new eyes you wouldn't be able to see it
[HTC EVO 3D] Cuppeerr:
Then how did all of us see the glow? And infrared is a red and you can only see it in really dark conditions.
[HTC EVO 3D] ktulu909:
take ANY infrared remote control,turn on you camera and aim it at the camera and press a button.Ive been testing remotes like this for years.
[HTC EVO 3D] franky_402:
+1 ive shown that trick to allot of people!!
[HTC EVO 3D] zonyl:
Most of the color cameras I have seen show infrared as blue. Having said that though those cheap infrared leds aren't purely all in the non visible wavelength.
[HTC EVO 3D] SkuzFoz:
IMO it's pretty obviously the infrared LED used for the proximity sensor. Notice how it is NOT red in the picture taken with the camera - it's purple just like infrared shows up on camera.

The user could have certainly seen it glowing, it may be broken, defective or he has slightly more spectrum-sensitive eyes.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
You can try this out if you want. Download Proximity Sensor Finder and it will activate the proximity sensor when you open the app. The light is visible in dark conditions. If you look at the light through the camera, it will be purple and much brighter.
[HTC EVO 3D] Cuppeerr:
I

have an old video camera with night vision and it shows infared leds and I didn't see anything on my device....

Swyped from mah 3vo!
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
You have to activate the proximity sensor first which can be done through this app: https://market.android.com/details?...xLDEsImNvbS50aWdlcm1vbnN0ZXIucHJveGZpbmRlciJd

or look up "Proximity Sensor Finder" in the android market.
[HTC EVO 3D] DCLocal:
You have to make a call and then you'll see it. When I tried it seemed like a strobe, it was not a steady light.

I would LOVE it if the 3D had a second LED like was found on the 4G. As it is I think the fact that you can't see a notification while charging is a huge oversight.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
Its steady if you use the app I posted

Hey guys..

i have a sensation xe and i am really happy with it but i am also impressed with the galaxy nexus..

so now i have the opportunity to buy an galaxy nexus amazingly cheap

you think it's worth buying the galaxy nexus and selling the sensation xe ?
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
How cheap are we talking? If you have the opportunity to get it for $150 or less after selling the sensation, I would definitely go for it.
[General Questions and Answers] The3File:
The sensation xe has a lot more power, but not the same screen size or resolution. I had the choice of buing ether the sensation xe or the nexus, and i chose the sensation.

So i guess it's a matter of what u want most. Slim design, a big high def screen (and of course native ice cream sandwich). Or a powerfull music phone (wich i prefer).

But if i got a offer of a very cheap nexus i would go for that, but only if it was VERY cheap ;)
[General Questions and Answers] G-XtremE:
I am in the same situation here. I have the XE but I really like the Nexus's design and ICS. I love my music on the HTC but I have the opportunity to switch to nexus and keep the iBeats. The difference i'd be paying to switch to Nexus is 40Euros. Please reply asap, thank you

thanks for the heads up Joker (you2 Wired)
[Android Apps and Games] wired88:
Well,first off I'm glad it works without lag on my Nexus S,next I think I'll be testing what kind of polycount is reasonable/car so that the game doesn't lag.Don't think it's depending too much on ram or cpu power,since on pc it was more about the game engine limits.
[Android Apps and Games] ThexJoker:
The polycount could be one reason for some problems I had while testing some Mods.

And there are some txd's that give me error when I try to open theme.

Example: RADAR.TXD

I think this is the Map when you open the map (press on the radar). Only the little radar in the corner can be changed (replace radar00.txd - radar63.txd in gta3_unc.img)

If i try to open it i get this error: Out of memory while expanding memory stream.

My english is not the best, but I think this error means something like, the images insede the txd are to big.

And if T try to open the file with other txd applications, then I get other errors or I see no image, but the info says height and width: 52428.
[Android Apps and Games] PlUmPaSsChIcKeN:
Is it possible to replace the collision models?

I have two cars downloaded that I would like to install and both have custom collision files.
[Android Apps and Games] ThexJoker:
Hmm... I'll test it.

EDIT: I can't find any car for GTA III with new collision. The cars I found are for Vice City with new Col, and they didn't work. But you can modify the .col files from android. I think new carcollisons are possible.
[Android Apps and Games] KotsChopShop:
the collisions can be modified via SteveM's Coll Editor http://ce2.steve-m.com/

just pull/copy the vehicles.col out of com.rockstar.gta3\files\GTA3\models\Coll (just like Joker's OP)..

then you can load it up via Coll Editor and extract/import/edit and/or replace individual col files
[Android Apps and Games] PlUmPaSsChIcKeN:
Hmm... Interesting. I'll have to test it out when I get home from work.

Benn browsing for some cars and I have around 10 I have downloaded. I'll see how many the game can handle.
[Android Apps and Games] homais:
dang this is awesome
[Android Apps and Games] wired88:
So,I've tested the game out with 2 models so far.

The one made for Vice City didn't work,game stopped loading,although it's relatively low poly,around 10k I presume.

The second one originally made for Gta 3 works great,and it's also around 10k,the game has no lag whatsoever,so I think cars need to be exported to Gta 3 from Zmodeler 1/2 so they can be recognized by the game.

(sorry,no images cause I can't post links yet)

As for Col's as Kotton said,the best thing is to edit the stock col's yourself,but you can also import col's with that program,although I don't recommend it,as some col's caused my game to crash even on the Gta 3 pc version.
[Android Apps and Games] PlUmPaSsChIcKeN:
Well I have been testing a few car mods and have had no luck with the majority of the cars.

The only car mod that actually worked was this:

[Android Apps and Games] ThexJoker:
I had the same problem with some cars. I thnik the problem is, that this car is vor VC or to much polycount.
[Android Apps and Games] wired88:
I've tested the car,and it looks the same at me too,it's not a polycount issue,the car has around 12k,I think it has more to do with how the car is modeled,maybe he has too many overlapping polys,or the poly density is too large/car part.
[Android Apps and Games] KotsChopShop:
what a trip, those are definitely artifacting polys.. but that's what you get when messn with Inside, it's a gamble lol - I'm gonna test my own Max exported vehicle asahp

I also just hit up Oleg to see if we can get the III/VC filters updated to Zm2, ffs I do NOT want to go back to using Zm1, that thing's ancient UI is a freakn nightmare lol
[Android Apps and Games] wired88:
You can work in Zmodeler 2,export as old *.z3d and then export to gta 3 from Zmodeler 1.

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 PM ----------

I've tested more cars,among them a Dodge Challenger by Pumbars made specifically for Gta 3,which doesn't work on the phone,after I checked the car out in Zmodeler 2,I think the problem is with the program that exported the car,mods exported with Max might not work,and the ones exported with ZModeler 2 do.
[Android Apps and Games] KotsChopShop:
ah snap.. I completely forgot about that shiz - thanks Wired, I'll do just that

edit; (this site doesn't support strike!? ^ ..wtf!? hahaha)

LOL we're trippn bro.. Zm2 already offers III and VC dff export - we select it from the drop down options xD (see what using Max does to ya!? lol)
[Android Apps and Games] PlUmPaSsChIcKeN:
Interesting. I'll test a few more cars and post links to any cars I get working.
