How did you wipe everything, and install update.zip? If you have recovery, you should be able to use that to get back 'home'? If you don't and can't get into fastboot, you probably do need a factory cable...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronblayze:
Wiped everything though TWRP, but upon flashing update.zip through TWRP, it removes root, FFF, and recovery (TWRP), and leaves you in Kindle Fire Logo hell.

Thanks again for all your help and suggestions. I ended up returning it to Best Buy and getting. The Geek Squad guys wanted to look at it before I returned it to see if they could get it working. I was muttering under my breath, "You're not going to get anything out of it." Haha. Well from now on I'm going to be very careful in my use of TWRP. Good luck to you other guys having this problem.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] znithy:
Hi TheChard222,

I have the same problem and finally the factory cable rescued my kindle fire brick.

The steps are as following:

1) connect your kindle fire using factory cable. (I made lt by myselt. just link Pin1 to Pin4)

2) download TRWP from the official website. (teamw.in/project/twrp2/79)

3) run "fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img"

4) Kindle will automatically reboot and install TRWP, you'd better disconnect it from your computer.

5) re-flash ROM under TRWP.

if you encounter "E:failed to mount /sdcard (Invalid argument)" when press flash, please mount kindle sdcard (TWRP has this function) to your computer then format your sdcard.

6) ALL DONE

My new Kindle will be arriving soon, I might not root again. Also, the thread above should have a WARNING that his thread bricks peoples Kindles.

Hi guys,

Im having exactly the same problem. After searching here for a while, I decide to build my own factory cable now. Please let us know if any of you succeed in unbricking KF by using factory cable.

Thanks a lot!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b63:
here are some:

first the handling:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21708081&postcount=157

or in short:

You must insert cable, then switch off kindle by pressing button about

20sec and press once again, kindle will be in fastboot.

test with "fastboot devices" and "fastboot getvar product"

After kindle will be in fastboot, with Kindle Fire Utility install TWRP

recovery and with recovey install prerooted stock or CM7 firmware.

then the restore:

Same issue here, obviously no such solution.

Same thing happened to me. I have tried everything I could find here. No such luck! Possibly one of the worse things to happen to your Fire. Now I am waiting on a factory cable to arrive. Should be another day before its here. I will post you guys on an update.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxdog66:
the rom.zip isnt mounting/installing correctly to the /system partition. this is normally "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system"

if you take a rom.zip and edit the updater-script (located in META-INF/com/google/android/) from the above quote to "/dev/block/mmcblk0p9" it should install and boot correctly.

now the question is.... why did it change and how do we get it back to the way it was?

unbricked fire logo loop

Got my skorpn factory cable yesterday. Came a lot sooner than I though. Nice guy skorpn, left a note saying thank you too. Anyway, I installed twrp and then pushed the update for kindle fire into the sdcard and tryed to flash it again but it just kept on failing. Tryed other methods like unbrick utility or Firekit live USB because of the noob I am but no luck. So I thought maybe I can flash something else so I installed cyanogen mod 7 and although I was successful I got bored of it quick. Needless to say I tryed flashing stock update again and this time it worked! Not sure how or why it worked this time but oh well. I can figure it out later. Now going to flash my fire again! Any suggestions?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neemo6:
Ok ive just made myself a cable but cannot tell if im in fastboot or not. How do i go about testing this out? Also if i install twrp then flash the stock rom update again wouldnt i be in the same predicament im in now? I would think that a bootloader would be the issue here and installing one would be more important than getting twrp going again, correct me if im wrong here. Im at a loss as to what to do. Please help.

Thanks!!! I had "bricked" my daughter's kindle after having it setup as a Nexus for a while. I tried to set back to "stock" but in TWRP I did a system wipe and it killed it, removed the ability for shell I'm thinking. I did this because in the recovered stock Kindle it kept rebooting after a minute or two in the UI. I gave up for a while and then decided to try again. After hacking together a factory cable I didn't think it was working until I found a post about the Kindle Fire logo screen being the fastboot screen .. then ran the above commands with files I already had for TWRP and the Fire image and I'm back up and running as a Fire.

Thanks!!! So glad I found your post (along with another that got me to this one).

I tried to do an OTA update to Honeycomb and on reboot it stopped at the little Android guy indicating an error. I found a post where I thought the problem was the PG*.zip so I updated to the PG41IMG.zip and upon reboot I am locked at the white HTC screen.

How do I go about downloading the original GB PG*.zip file?

[Epic 4G General] selfinfliction:
I've tried a bunch of different ones out and am in the same situation as you... it was rooted for the sole purpose of free tethering (and to remove the samsung bloatware).

The new cleanGB rom is the best i've used, not the fastest but everything works and has been perfectly stable. for tethering i use open garden wifi - this is no longer listed on my market but if you do a google search for it, you can install it directly from their website for free. that's the best/easiest/most stable tether program i've used.
[Epic 4G General] BillyBob3:
Cleangb has wifi hotspot built in, and I thought it does usb tethering as well. No 3rd party app needed. Anytime an app is pulled from the market, you really have to wonder why, and be cautious DLing directly from their website.

+1 on the CLeanGB BML. I've had an issue or too fiddling with undervolting but other than that, it just works and looks nearly stock. I'm not a big tetherer but I seem to recall doing a USB tether a while back and Wireless Hotspot hack is built-in. It also included a few other "nice" hacks that I like. Alternatively, as was mentioned, the android wi-fi tether app worked well when I did use it.
[Epic 4G General] RandomKing:
The wireless hack works great, its been built into my roms for some time now. But occasionally I still have to use alternate tether apps, as things like my TouchPad can't see Sprint Hotspot for some dumb reason. :rolleyes:

did not do anything. Just rebooted my phone & suddenly saw this msg: Modem did not turn up starting rsd protocol.

Then the mobile doesn't turn on.

Then I Googled a bit. Found that flashing pudding may solve it. Started flashing pudding but did not pass. It said failed but I did unlock my bootloader. (it was saying oem unlock isn't implemented before)

So I erase system, cache, preinstall, via fastboot & then installed fruitcake 2.3.6. Same thing! I could open it via BP HW Diag & Boot AP whiich does cold linux boot & it was saying motoblur loggin.

Then wiped everything again & flashed CM7. It was reporting the same thing..

Modem did not turn up starting rsd protocol.

Then tried to flash the ATT .91 radio..

it was saying something like this:

Updating BP

Error 0

abort

But I could boot to Android via 'HW Android & BP' some thing which says cold booting linux (BP HW Diag & Boot AP) & I could boot to cyanogenmod. The sim doesn't work their either.

The baseband says unknown.

Intel mainboards are not for overclockers, but they are really stable even after years of work.

You could seach for an alternative cheap MB and overclock well (10-15%) your CPU. Look for some guides on www.overclock.net to find the right MB for you.

Google has made companies support their phones for the next 3 update cycles (or something like that). However, this is valid only for post Q3 2011 phones and later. That's why I would recommend going for a recently released phone rather than the ones you mentioned.

[HTC Wildfire S] Exleh:
My girlfriend got the HTC Wildfire S for MetroPCS a couple of weeks ago. It is a nice phone except for one little problem: The internal memory is crap. She has exactly 5 apps installed, all are moved to SD, and she has 7.14 MB or internal memory free. It is running the stock 2.3 Rom rooted. I need some help figuring out what to do. Before you guys make suggestions let me list what I have already done:

1. S-OFF and rooted, removed all bloatware, which moved it from 3.21 MB to 8 MB which seems like BS because a few of those apps were about 6 MB in size.

2. Moved apps to SD card partially in the applications menu in settings.

3. Cleaned caches

4. Uninstalled almost every application.

This is very frustrating because she cant update apps, she cant download apps, and it is frustrating because I have the old Huawei Ascend on CM7 and I have more apps and am faster than her phone, its ridiculous, I also wonder why after removing over 60MB or crap and bloatware it freed up about 7MB. Makes no sense. I don't want to do DT's app2sd script yet because she doesn't have a way to back up her stuff before the partition of the SD card. If anyone can explain another way or something I can do to fix this please..... It would be greatly appreciated.
