Fastboot

Does anyone know wh to get fastboot working on the kindle fire hd 8.9. Im working on installing twrp etc, and I cant get my kindle into fastboot. I have the fastboot thing saying waiting for device. So I turn off my device then plug in the usb cord and the kindle starts to boot up. Then it just boots normally to the lockscreen. Adb does work. Im just wondering what im doing wrong.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexAquarium:
Fast boot was no issue for me on window 7 64. Getting the kindle to root was the hard part. If you have the fastboot drivers from the android sdk. just follow hashcode instruction and it should work. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2128175

Would appreciate a pointer: I was able to complete the Bin4ry program, and it appears to have worked, kind of. But I don't think it actually rooted my KFHD 8.9, because shouldn't I have SuperUser or whatever in my Apps?

How do I make sure ADB is in the PATH of my computer? Please, if someone could instruct, I've looked elsewhere and can't see how to do this. Thanks.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apd:
If there's no superuser or su app then root probably didn't work. You can check with a root checker or a terminal app (enter an su command).

Does your pc recognise the tablet? What is the response when you issue the command adb devices - it ought to list your kfhd

(Ps that wasn't sarcasm - rooting failed the first time I tried it)
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LudicrousPeed:
Thanks for trying to help.

As is usual, it wasn't working because of a step I missed: I didn't know that when the terminal opens up on the KFHD, I actually had to type those things in on the Kindle. Totally missed that step. Rooted! SuperUser is there! On to TWRP!

Bin4ry's v30 rooting script still works for the 8.3.1 update. I used it a few hours ago. This time around only option 1 (normal mode) worked. Also, the included Unix script wouldn't work so I used the Windows version on Windows 7.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTown:
That's not a problem. That happens when you are using two different adb executables. Most likely, you ran "adb devices" using the adb executable shipped with the Android SDK. That means that the SDK's adb executable started an adb-server. What happened was the adb executable shipped with Bin4ry's rooting script closes the adb-server made by the SDK's adb exceutable (and called it "out of date" even if it wasn't) and starts its own adb-server.

If you don't want to see that message and you should be able to reboot your PC (or use adb kill-server) and just use the rooting script right away. Is that the only problem you are having?

Safe Mode

For those of you who are still stuck with a Kindle Fire HD that is not rooted, the solution is simple:

Start your KFHD in safe mode by pressing both the volume buttons on boot. Then simply run the root tool with option 2.

Oh and do ignore the errors.

Stuck on Boot Screen

After rooting my KFHD, which was successful, I rebooted into TWRP. The screen went off after a while and did not respond to any buttons, so I hard reset it. Since then, KFHD has been stuck on boot screen (orange, not blue).

ADB is offline, fastboot won't find the KFHD, anyone knows what is going on?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doltrin:
i have the same problem.after i succesfully rooted the kfhd and did all the steps for twrp the kindle restarted and stack in the yellow logo screen.i tried to go in fastboot with kfhd srt tool ,but when i connect the kindle to the pc and turns on the tool cant find it.

now im stack to the yellow logo

when i plug it to the power adapter it turns on and is charging but staying in the kindle logo.when i plug it to the laptop it turns on i can see that the widnows found a new device and then immediately i can hear that the device is disconnected.when i go to the device manager and i do the above i can see that the windows find a new unknown device but in less than a second it disconnects.so the only thing i can see is the kindle yellow logo.whatever i tried from other posts i get the waiting for device message and thats all.

anyone with an idea of what to do ?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TacoLoco:
Hi there,

just got a One X and wanted to install a custom Rom. Did bootloader unlock and installed TWRP with Toolkit. As I'm on Windows 8 I couldn't do the root part, if I'm not mistaken this is not needed and the custom ROM will be rooted anyway..? So TWRP installed successfully and I cleaned Cache but it doesn't start when i select recovery in HBOOT it stucks at the green HTC logo.. Is there any advice? Thanks in advance..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Herc08:
Edit: also just noticed that you did not root. You really need to do that before trying to install a ROM. I know you unlocked the boot loader but rooting is still needed to access system files. With out that, it is pointless. Find a Linux or windows 7 mention.

Better yet just run a live USB within Linux. That should work. Ooh, I wonder can you boot using your phone since it can be considered a mass storage device....probably not. Sorry off topic.

My guess is that windows 8 probably isn't reading your phone correctly. But you said you unlocked the boot loader. Try to manually install twrp
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DESERT.TECH:
Just download the latest HTC sync from HTC website and it Will install drivers you need, you can then leave sync or uninstall it and drivers will remain.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Venomtester:
How are you going to access twrp if you do not have root and super user?

Good luck with that.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
If the bootloader is unlocked, there's no need to root. They are independent of each other.

Check md5 on your recovery file and reflash. Then do fastboot erase cache and try going to recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Herc08:
I thought unlocking the BL and root was co-dependant. You can root but can't install ROMs until the BL is unlocked. Or you could unlock boot loader but can't touch system files until you gain root access.

Or did I miss understand? Which is why rooting alone nor unlocking the BL alone is not the only step in installing a ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I will explain further.

For ATT One XL root was needed prior to unlocking the bootloader to allow you to write to system files(which is no longer possible as of 3.18), and be able to change the CID in order to allow HTCDEV to provide the Unlock_code.bin to unlock your bootloader. This is probably where your confusion stems.

IF, like every other carrier, ATT allowed you to unlock the bootloader, you would not need to have rooted to be able to unlock your bootloader, you could have just unlocked it and then flashed TWRP. At that point you could flash a rooted rom or allow TWRP to root your rom for you. (For some rom versions, I believe anything under 3.18)

Hope this cleared some stuff up for you! :good:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Herc08:
Ah makes perfect since now. Darn AT&T and their lock downs.

So basically Rogers and Telstra can root just by unlocking and that's it. No exploit needed. And of course flashing twrp and a rom

Hello all!

I already try few roms from xda and is not for what im looking for.I want rom like on sg 3 or sg2 , i mean jelly bean.And not that black jb that is on cyanogenmod. Like that http://static.androidnext.de/samsung-galaxy-s3-s-iii-frontal.jpg Is possible ? And is very important to be smooth,fast...Better than stock ?? I guess that is the point of custom roms.Without lag on the menu,browser and etc.To can use skype and facebook on the same time ?? That is possible on stock but i want something fresh ? If someone understand me...Or i will back on stock.I already try miui or something like that but i guess have some problems with cpu setups my screen blinking and i cant use anything...

PS on some roms my battery was drain for2 h.

If you want S3's jelybean rom buy a S3, that's simple

If you want the prefect rom fast, satable , without lag, look like S3... BUY A S3!

If not and If you was trying different roms, continue trying!!! If you don't want black jb from cyanoroms use theme chooser app with a S3 Theme/ Touchwiz 4/5...!!!

If you want pure JB compile it from sources on your own to your personal usage without bugs, lag, and looks like S3!!

Please read forum RULES!

and never ask for the best rom or similar stuffs...

You can try the custom stock SGSII JB by SpaceCaker and you know If you dislike BUY A S3 xDDD

Hey there

I'm using the Glass Widget Clock / Weather

I really like the way it looks but I have a pretty big problem.

In the settings I'm only able to change the update interval between Never, Once or Twice a day.

But Twice a day isn't enough in my opinion. Is it possible to change the interval?

I know that you can change the widget skin but I don't know how to change the way the widget operates.

[Off-topic] Rudegar:
well the backpack is not that expensive

of cause one can not always be sure that

using a converter like the backpack to get CF

to use a converter to get MS would work 100%

there will only be such a product as a ms to sd if there was a high enough demand for it

i doubt there is

is it not only sony who use ms ?

sd seem imho to become the std like CF was which is getting old and will prob be outfased in 2 years or something
[Off-topic] superperry:
I guess you're right CF will be faced out in a few years, SD might be the next standard BUT micro drive still using CF isn't it? So I guess there are still some debate on that huh! :)

UK badboy just before the place you quoted he says

which mean that he would like xda3 to support host mode because xda2 dont, so unless his external disk is defect then he can transfer files from his pc not his ppc

http://www.starkingtech.com/@PRDCT/TT945.htm

it have both firewire and usb2 connecting options

and i will of cause use firewire since irl it's faster then usb2
