and check the adb_usb.ini file in your .android folder in your personal folder

it has to be existent and has to include 0x1949 (i use to add 0x18d1 in a separate line also)

without this folder/file/entries adb will never work !

if they are missing just create this folder and copy the file from c:\kfu\drivers\kindle

you can try to install it with option 5

if it says <waiting for device> power it off by holding the pwr button for ~20sec till it turns of - pwr on again - the command should resume and finish

or install manually

it's a good practice to move kfu to c:\ and rename it to "kfu" so that it is c:\kfu

- copy recovery.img from c:\kfu\recovery to c:\kfu\tools (check it is ~10mb)

- open a (elevated) command prompt and cd to c:\kfu\tools

- issue "fastboot -i 0x1949 boot recovery.img"

Did my changing the stock logo images (png) inside the zip file have anything to do with why the Kindle Fire gets stuck at the logo?

I root KF then use CM9 rom for one day, everything was good.

However, it really dificultly watched Video (maybe mistake) and after that i come back to stock rom Amazon

Change stock rom.bin to .zip then use firefirefire boot recovery to come back.

I tried to hard reset following Amazon support but it isn't ok.

Seems that my kindle fire still connected to my Laptop but only when i show hidden file, i see Kindle USB like as removeable disk and nothing in here.

New restore method, no factory cable needed

My kindle fire was stuck in a boot loop. I would get the yellow triangle, and after being on for less than 2 seconds it would shutoff. No fastboot (and of course no ADB) available:

$ ./fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

< waiting for device >

...

ERROR: usb_read failed with status e00002ed

FAILED (status read failed (Operation timed out))

finished. total time: 0.035s

I would always get usb_read or usb_write failed. After reading the unbrick your kindle fire thread and this thread it seemed that my only option was to create a factory cable. It seems the only time i could issue commands was if i let the kindle "sit" for a period of time. I tried my hand at making a factory cable but didn't have a soldering iron, enough tape, or small enough gauge wire to do it.

I knew the problem was that the kindle wasn't getting enough power from the USB current from my macbook to power the screen and get to where it could even run twrp and charge. It would shutoff due to insufficient charge before I could load twrp. Even when I connected to AC, it just didn't have enough battery to power the screen and get through loading TWRP. I guessed that when you first plug in the kindle to a power source, a small amount of charge makes it to the battery before the screen can initialize. I took my kindle to the AC adapter and plugged in the micro usb and waited for the green light to turn on but unplugged the micro usb before the screen turned on. I did this about 15-20 times then took the kindle back to the laptop.

$ ./fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

< waiting for device >

...

OKAY [ 0.080s]

finished. total time: 0.080s

Voila!, I had just enough battery charged to enter a command, sadly I was in a loop again after that command and had to repeat the process for every command i entered. I unplugged/replugged in the power 20 times to be sure i had enough for reinstalling twrp.

$ ./fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery ~/Downloads/openrecovery-twrp-blaze-2.1.1.img

< waiting for device >

sending 'recovery' (5568 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.398s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.917s]

finished. total time: 2.315s

I did one more round for the bootmode, then took the kindle back to the AC adapter. I did another 15-20 unplug/plugs then left the micro usb plug in and hit the power button while i knew the kindle would be trying to boot to twrp. Success!. The kindle rebooted, but instead of the green light on reboot the light stayed off and turned on orange then TWRP showed up! TWRP even has my backed up images. Now my kindle is out of the 3 day boot loop it has been on and can now charge enough for me to restore my image and unbrick my kindle!

Kindle boot loop

This may or may apply to this instance, but here is the solution for many of the owners of the Kindle Fires stuck in a boot loop. This is often NOT a boot loop. Here is the problem as technically correct as I understand it: The battery is dead, and the computers USB port supplies power to the unit and it turns on. The computer then turns off power to the port until it loads the drivers. Unfortunately, the Kindle goes dead before the drivers are loaded, and it dies. The process then starts again, over and over, appearing to be a boot loop. The solution is to simply plug it in to a wall charger! Hope this is helpful.:highfive:

Of course I realize anything is possible, but is this a pointless pipe dream? Obviously the stock kernel means no OC.

[Motorola Photon 4G] magui43212:
The problem with 4g isn't the kernel. Its the fact that the proper RSA keys aren't passed after the bootloader is unlocked so the 4g network kicks the phone out.
[Motorola Photon 4G] boggsie:
I'm looking for some education here, becuase it is probable that I misunderstand.

My impression is that we do not need to unlock the bootloader when we stick with the stock kernel. Where the stock kernel is utilized, we can bootstrap and install that build, keeping the bootloader unlocked and maintaining 4G.

So, you are correct, 4G is tied to the bootloader, but if we kept the stock kernel, we wouldn't need to unlock the bootloader.

This is my line of thinking. Bootstrap to install builds which keep the stock Kernel.

As I mentioned, if this comes across as authoritative, I am honestly looking for an education.

Best regards,

[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Is it not flashing CWM, or is it not there AFTER you reboot the photon? If it's not sticking (stock bootstrap appears after reboot) go to /system/etc and rename install-recovery.sh to install-recovery.sh.bak and it will stick. By default when the photon boots it checks the recovery and if it isn't right it will reinstall it. Renaming the .sh file prevents that (it will NOT stop you from booting properly).

I'm a MoPho-er
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jasonfnts1:
I think you right can you explain moree pleasee more detail in how to do it please
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Use an app like root explorer (file manager) and navigate to the folder /system/etc. At the top of the window there will be a button to "mount R/W", this will make the directory read/write (R/O means read only). Find the install-recovery.sh file and long press on it. A menu will pop up. Choose rename and rename it to install-recovery.sh.bak (just add the .bak to the end of the file name) and save it. That way you will still have it if you need to go back to stock recovery for whatever reason. After you save click on the "mount R/O" button at the top of the window. This will change the directory back to "Read Only". After that you can flash CWM and when you reboot it will still be there.

BTW, you can do the rename from the phone. It's just like renaming a file on a pc.

whats stock or built
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
Stock = NON-Custom ROM, or the one that is shipped with your phone (in this case, Gingerbread)

Build = Check Settings>About Phone

Not sure why you don't have that install_su.sh file or whatever, but I would use RSD lite to go back to STOCK Build 198_6, unlock again, and then flash CWM 5.0.2.7. It's fast, easy, and you're starting from scratch so you aren't missing any files.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jasonfnts1:
it say build number 4.5.1 A-1 198_7
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
I would agree with KTT16, SBF back to 198_6, root, unlock, then flash the 5.0.2.7-photon3 recovery. Follow what I listed a couple posts earlier and rename the install-recovery.sh before you flash and everything should be cool.

[HTC Inspire 4G] lothodon:
Is there a way to allow any installed app (bloatware mostly) to be delete through the remove app method? Some custom ROMS show installed apps as downloaded and thus can be removed (the Virtuous ROMS come to mind).

I'm after a clean official 2.47 ROM with bloat removed (Twitter, Teeter, Asphalt Racing, LiveTV...) but using Tit Backup list EVERYTHING and if I remove an app "officially" it takes the associated widget with it (if there is one).

Is there a SU command from terminal that can set permissions for ALL the installed apps, knowing that it's my butt if I delete a critical app? Perhaps permissions are not the right direction, if so, could someone point me in the right direction?
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
So, I'm not trying to be jerk just trying to get a better understanding of what you're asking...what you're saying is that you want to see if there is a way, outside of TiBu, to remove ANY app within a ROM?

If this is the case, yes. You can take a file explorer (I use root explorer) and navigate to /system > /apps. From there you can long press any apk you want to delete it. You can also open the ROM before you flash it and remove anything you want but I wouldn't recommend it.
