[Motorola Atrix HD] Coyote0420:
Without root I don't know of any 3rd party tethering apps. Besides it sounds more like your laptop is having the issue not the phone/router. A couple things you could try from the PC end, run "ipconfig /release" then "ipconfig /renew" from an elevated command prompt. If this doesn't work or give you errors about the network state try this as a last effort. Go to device manager, locate the wireless adapter, then uninstall (note do NOT check the delete drivers check box). Then do a rescan of hardware and it should reinstall your wireless back to default without any conflicting settings it may have had. You will however lose your list of previous access points and possibly keys. But I've fixed many a dead internet connection by just doing that.

Ok so I restored my first nandroid today...after years of having flashable smartphones (samsung ones, they were a bit easier)....yeah stupid me....I always stated from scratch.

So I was running nils business sense.....flashed conrom, stuck....then resored nils nandroid....wow!

So if I install conrom, which it what I am trying to do...with no luck. Once I get it on the phone, I can make a nandroid of that. then I could restore between either one if I wanted to switch back ond forth between roms? Is that how its normally done?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rikkoko:
If TWRP is still functional, then you can just "mount USB," put a rom and gapps into the folder, flash them, then boom! You'll have an OS again; just basic protocol haha.

Was not able to answer you as I was out town without internet connection-- When I boot I get a "Nornal Boot", "Recovery", and "Reset Boot Mode". The first two choices get a black screen with KindleFire, fire is blue after a bit fire turns red. also, upper right corner "V1.4"

If I go to #3, "Reset Boot", I get into TWRP. Saw on You Tube how to reinstall systen, however it would Reboot--NO OPERATING SYSTEM.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Wow, very interesting, and welcome back.

Weird. It's almost as if you have TWRP installed to the system partition. Selecting "reset boot" on FFF1.4 changes the idme value to 4000, so your device should boot to the system partition no matter what. But you said the boot logo changes from blue to red. What's actually happening, is the bootloader finishes doing it's thing and then boots to the system. The red and white Kindle Fire logo you see then is the stock boot animation, which makes everything really strange. "Recovery" boot shouldn't show the boot animation at all. And if you have recovery installed to the system partition, you shouldn't see the boot animation there either. WTF did you do to your Kindle?

My best advice would be to get into fastboot and reinstall TWRP to the correct partition so you can reinstall your ROM. From the sounds of it, you will likely have no access to the adb shell, in which case you would need to get a factory cable.

So, boot into recovery and enter the following command to see if you even have a working shell:

adb shell idme bootmode 4002

Would a factory cable do me good at this point?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
There is no video at that address

Reverting to stock would only compound your problems right now as it would wipe out your custom recovery and bootloader, which are necessary to fix any problems should they arise.

Your best bet, as I mentioned earlier would be to reinstall TWRP, if that is actually the problem, but I'm not quite sure yet. I would be very helpful to know what ROM you tried to install when this problem started, and what steps you took to install it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerryhndy:

I have reinstalled TWRP Same problem. Not shure what you mean of "what ROM that I tried to install". Am I dead in the water??

factory cable would that me get out of this ?? I had downloaded the program from XDA site Kindle_Fire_Utility_V0.9.6
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
There is still no video at that address.

If reinstalling TWRP doesn't fix the problem, there may be a problem with your file system.

Run the following commands and post the results here:

adb shell
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
print

And a factory cable will only put the device in fastboot, not help you to install a ROM.

KF no ROM, TWRP v2.6.0.0 still load...need a little help please

I was on the same boat. After backing up stock_image and copying over jb-4.2.2-kfire-hashcode-2013-02-12 & gapps-jb-20130301-signed files, I did a wipe. Instead just doing a "Factory Reset", I went to "Advanced Wipe" and wiped everything. Now, I am left with no rom or stock_image (all my backup) in KF.

It still boots FFF 1.4a and TWRP v2.6.0.0. I cannot seem to put the jb-4.2.2-kfire-hashcode-2013-02-12 through because now my Window 7 machine won't recognize the driver. Please show me how to get the jb-4.2.2-kfire-hashcode-2013-02-12 to KF.

Try a factory reset or if your rooted with a custom recovery just format cache and dalvic cache. Then Give the phone 2 full charges from at least 20% in at least a 2 day span.

It could be a bad app or mod that is causing the issues. Usually it's never a bad ota update that slows the device. Also I recommend a backup program.

The app drawer would only lag if you have a large amount of apps installed. Maybe get rid of ones you don't use
[HTC One X] Brett610:
Not so great after all...

While I don't notice that my phone is any slower after the update to 4.1, the update hasn't solved my WiFi issue. Which I wasn't really expecting it to, but they did say it should even out the signal, it hasn't. I couldn't tell the difference about the 3D widget stacking or whatever on the stock launcher, 'nor could I notice a difference when opening the app drawer or swiping through homescreens.

That is not to say that the update didn't do anything. I know that benchmarks don't prove much of anything, some argue that they do. I don't really care too much for them, but out of curiosity sake, I ran some. Now, my phone is bone stock, I can't unlock the bootloader because my volume rocker cable is broken. So I'm not rooted, nothing. With Sense 4.0 and Android 4.0.3 I scored horribly, worse than the One X in the stats, at about 3900. I don't know what was going on, but I ran that twice and got the same result. Anyway, after the update to 4.1 and 4.0.4 I scored 5928 and that is with Apex Launcher and Holo Locker locked in memory.

Take from the benchmarks what you will! The 4.1 update does not work miracles, but it's a step in the right direction!
