More info

I jumped the gun a bit when I said it was working. Yes I can navigate the main menu and the few apps I have open and work fine. But this is interesting...it doesn't appear to sleep after 30 minutes or so, like usual, so I went into "Display" on the menu. Sometimes when I do this it will just open a blank window and crash menu (unresponsive, cant move) Sometimes it will let me open the window but when I press "screensaver" it crashes again. This location seems to be prohibited for some reason. BUT...it reboots normally.

Question--I had unlocked the bootloader prior to flashing 51.1.4.0 last night. As I type I don't think that has anything to do with it. And thinking about it it displayed the same behavior when I was running 51.1.4.1 the night before with bootloader unlocked so I don't think that has any relevance. You know what I've got other options for the bedroom tv. For now I'm going to keep it unplugged, block updates on the router and hope people have theories.

Although at this point blocking updates on the router seems a little like locking the door to the Hen house after the Wolf has already entered...it'll still make me feel better if for no other reason than I own another aftv (using it now and it works fine.)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
You're issue may be different than mine. You're not getting the snow screen then it hangs.

Did you try to flash the later firmware without the latest version of CWM? Or try the latest with Rbox boot menu?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kul-Aid23:
I'm not sure I know what you mean, like which files to install on it or if I can. I can't ADB into it, I can only run zip files through CWM. I tried loading the last ROM I installed on it and nothing changes. I had put up a forum for it:

http://xdaforums.com/fire-tv/help/aftv-bricked-reward-t3022426

I am debating trying different ROMs as well. I just don't want to lose CWM or else I'm bricked for sure.

And we might be having different issues. Bc mine loads boot loader where I can pick the boot kernel or CWM. But when it goes to boot kernel it just sits on that White and yellow Amazon screen. I don't encounter any static.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
Which domains are you blocking?

I just meant, some people have attempted to install roms that require boot menu and the result is a brick but that's not you I guess since you get the boot menu. Mine skips boot menu now and goes right to homescreen which i guess means boot menu is no longer present after flashing 51.1.4.0

still boots fine after at least a half dozen reboots. But i do have a question for you...which domains are you blocking? Because I used the 3 from aftvnews. First for the aftv with issues which is unplugged so I didn't notice. The other one is on and playing prime. I blocked one (not sure which) then blocked another and Ive got a toddler screaming at me...Elmo dissapeared. My son was watching prime and it turned off. This is why I didn't keep updates blocked on the router for fear it would deny access to everything. But I couldn't even get an internet connection! At least one of the domains keeps amazon content but one...or 2 cut the aftv from the network! I have a wired connection and I couldn't get it back. Granted my son was screaming so I didn't have time to thoroughly troubleshoot but it appears blocking all those domains just isnt an option even if you did go without prime. So are you able to block all 3 domains from the guide and still connect? I tried rebooting and configuring the network.

BTW--brilliant idea offering a cash reward for the fix! I never would've thought of that.

Here's one thing I just thought of regarding my issues and it may be nothing but...it seems EVERYTIME my AFTV has booted to snow and then hung, I had a flash drive plugged directly into usb with the drive mounted persistent. Now I haven't tested this thoroughly, but when it boots so far it has NO flash drive and HAS HAD a usb keyboard plugged in. CTRL, PRINT Alt doesn't get me to recovery but it just boots to homescreen normally. MAYBE pressing those buttons did nothing. MAYBE the keyboard did NOTHING. But in fact, for my troubles it has something to do with the flash drive??? Or usb port???

Obviously I'm not a programmer or software/hardware expert but there are people here that could confirm it's a possibility or that's stupid. I'm just trying to narrow it down by providing info and that hadn't occurred to me until 10 minutes ago. Unfortnately my time is running out for now. I'll check back later and hope one or both of us has a solution or something to help get us there.

Keep me posted. Sorry I'm not sure why yours won't boot. It seems your doing everything right and even took it a step further to keep updates away.

EDIT--Possible I screwed up blocking updates on router. Like I said it's very tedious and I was distracted. I MAY have selected to block all internet access to that aftv. Makes sense since no one else had an issue there. But to confirm--does blocking these domains cause any issues accessing prime? Sorry about the long post.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
BINGO!

So if you read the last post you'll see I suspected my AFTV booting into snow then hanging had something to do with the usb flash drive. Correct!

I unplugged the keyboard, plugged in the flash drive, and powered it on. It went from amazon white to SNOW to hanging amazon yellow and black. Unplugged the aftv, unplug the flash drive, powered on...it booted right to the homescreen. Corrupted flash drive? Issue with samba on startup? I don't know but would love to hear ideas...

EVERYONE has had corrupted hdd, sdcards and flash drives but for me it's never affected booting. This is still weird.

Also, though the fire menu navigation is fast and fluid, all apps work properly....there's STILL the issue with the Display section of the menu. It lets me click it. It lets me click screensaver BUT when it do it still crashes (sort of). Though I can't press back to escape or directional arrows, hitting the home button brings me back and it all works again. So maybe flashing the newest firmware from here will fix it but given the issues others are having I don't want to be too hasty. I'm looking for answers. It's running fine and the boot issue seems directly tied to the flash drive but that doesn't explain the issue with the Display/screensaver options...

I feel like I should intervene but without the boot menu currently installed I think I should sit tight and search/wait for some more ideas.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kul-Aid23:
I had these 3 blocked via my router

amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuite.net (amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuite.ne though bc router limits # of charcters)

softwareupdates.amazon.com

updates.amazon.com

But i noticed the last comment on this link: http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-block-software-updates-on-the-fire-tv-stick/

Maybe my AFTV lost internal OTA blocking at some point then got updated, but since I was using a different boot image, it can't boot now. Does that sound possible?

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

Actually check out the bottom of this one where everyone is commenting on http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-block-amazon-fire-tv-update-to-ensure-rooting/

I think I may have been updated then bricked.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
That's not what happened to you. I know right about now you're probably frustrated but the first article you linked was for fire tv stick (not fire tv). The fire tv stick doesn't have root, therefore they need to block on router because there is no way to disable updates otherwise. We can pm disable.

The 2nd article --check out the date--it's from may. We didn't get root till like mid june. So at that point people were trying to stay on low firmware in hopes when root came they'd be able to root!

It's unlikely you got an update if you blocked them on the box and you're sure you did. Especially with custom recovery, which you have. Even if you forgot to block them it's not likely they would install. Amazon would try, your box would likely boot itself to recovery like mine did when I forgot to block them after wiping data in CWM.

This doesn't help with your issue I know but I think you can look elsewhere as to the-- why it happened? There is maybe the slimmest chance an update could sneak through BUT if it happened to you I think lots of other people would be complaining of bricked devices. Hang in there. Hopefully we find a fix soon.

Might be able to help

I'm a long time lurker on these forums for all of my devices, but I just had this happen the other night. I had downgraded firmware, installed cwm, boot menu, and fully unlocked bootloader. When I went to upgrade to the latest custom rom (51.1.5.0?), I wiped data in cwm and ended up stuck on the Fire Tv splashscreen WITH NO BOOT MENU!! Therefore I could not boot to recovery or access via ADB. I was able to recover it by splicing some usb cables together that I had laying around to make a USB A to A cable, Installing the usb drivers for the kindle fire on my PC, and connecting it before powering on. Used cmd window and fastboot erased the boot partition and fastboot flashed [MENTION=3991724]rbox[/MENTION] bootmenu.img to the partition. Disconnected the USB cable and rebooted to find the boot menu back and able to access recovery!! Hopefully this can help you, or someone else that finds themselves in a similar predicament.

Edit: Once in CWM install zip via sideload then connect to ADB from PC to push the ROM
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreyBeard51:
As some of you may know I've not been able to unlock ro root my Xoom, much less update the android version. I'm still running 4.1.2, that was last updated by Google. (I have two Xooms)

I have tried everything I've found on this site, and over at the Xoom forums, to no avail. I did, finally get one of them unlocked by switch from a Linux PC to an old XP box.

But, nothing else has come even close to working.

Yesterday I found this,

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/02/25/how-to-root-the-motorola-xoom/

It seems (to this relative newbie) that Droid Life offers a bit more information about rooting and such??? An example below:

---------------------------------------------

5. Type: adb reboot bootloader

6. Type: fastboot flash boot rootboot.img

7. Type: fastboot reboot

8. Wait for your device to reboot all the way.

9. Type: adb remount

10. Type: adb push su /system/bin

11. Type: adb shell ln –s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su

12. Type: adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

13. And now this next step you have a couple of options.

Option A: Push Superuser.apk in adb. Type: adb push Superuser.apk /system/app

Option B: Exit adb and download Superuser app from the market.

--------------------------------------------------------

Why couldn't I find this info here, or at the Xoom forums? update: I found it on the Xoom forums

NOTE I still haven't tried it to see if it will work, but the "placement info" seems pretty relevant.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GADGTGUY:
Hi,

I have a Nexus 6 that I am going to start using for work.

My work has a policy that they do not allow rooted devices.

I rooted my Nexus 6 simply to get LED LightFlow to trigger the hidden LED.

When I rooted I used the Nexus Root Toolkit from Wugfresh. I did not use a Custom Recovery and I kept the stock OS (5.0.1 LRX22C)

I really would rather not have to do a wipe/reset if I don't have to. I just need the device unrooted to adhear to company policy.

(and ideally to be able to get the 5.1 OTA when it is released later this month)

D.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_rooter:
Um how will you work know? do they have software they put on the phones? also if your worried just use root cloak. It hides root from set apps.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
You can flash the images from the Google Stock image file, and skip userdata - that will restore your phone to stock, without wiping data. Look at the stickies in the general forum for N6
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GADGTGUY:
They push a BES client that checks. They already told me they know the phone is rooted. (big brother) ;)

Thanks for this info....

I just noticed that in SuperSU there is a feature called: Full unroot

Can I simply do this and presto... the phone is unrooted?

Since I kept the stock OS and didn't put a custom recovery on the phone... do you think this might do the trick?

D.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
It may - but it still won't get you direct OTA (since OTA now checks for any change to system files)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Just to echo what jj14 said. The "Full unroot" option in SuperSU will remove root, but it won't (at least it hadn't on the last version of it that I tried) revert one file that root modifies, so, while you won't have root, and the BES client should work, the update checks the entire file system, so it will fail. A quick flash of only the system.img file using fastboot will remove root and leave everything else untouched.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GADGTGUY:
Thanks for all the advice guys!

I appreciate the assistance... this is why this community rocks!

D.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GADGTGUY:
I should have paid closer attention to the Nexus Root Toolkit from WugFresh.

There is a built in option that unroots without a refresh.

D'oh

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Many of us would recommend you learn fastboot commands manually rather than relying on toolkits. This helps you get out of trouble when things go wrong. That said, its too late now ;)
