[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
I have a 1st gen kindle fire.. That I rooted. But when i tried to install GAPPS and TWRP, the CMD window wouldn't let me. The error: "ADB server didn't ACK... Cannot connect to daemon" would pop up. So nothing else would load.

I then tried and tried various methods of fixes ( three days now), but none would work. Same constant error message in CMD window.

To make matters worse now, In one of my attempts to fix the problem, I've managed to brick the kindle. It's stuck on load page. Just says kindle fire on the screen.

ANY ANY ANY help .. would be greatly appreciated
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
That was exactly one of the post I was working off of. So when I got to step 4: Push Fastboot Mode File to Kindle.. in the command window, I would get the error message, " ADB server didn't ACK... Cannot connect to daemon". I tried for three days now, various fixes.. nothing seemed to work. And NOW, during one of my fixes, it bricked the Fire.

Stuck at Boot logo?

With animation or no change?

---------- Post added at 03:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

Does boot logo, fade in and out slightly?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
No fading in and out.

It's in fastboot mode then, send the fastboot commands
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
"It's in fastboot mode then, send the fastboot commands "

Don't really know what that means?

Fastboot mode?

Send fastboot commands?

Send where?

As I said.. kind of a newbie.. I'm not familiar with all the jargon/terms.

If you have a solution.. could you spell it out like I'm a five year old.. step by step? Otherwise.. I am just going to keep being Lost.

Thank you again
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
There are 2 different types of commands sent from pc to an android device, adb and fastboot.

Adb is used when device is in recovery or system/Rom is running.

Fastboot is used when device is in fastboot mode or bootloader mode.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

See step 6
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
I tried that.. Got the response: Fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Also whenever I try and run a command from CMD.. I also get "

ADB server didn't ACK.. cannot connect to daemon

".
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
adb.exe and other adb files are not in the same folder that the command prompt is running from.

You need to change directory with cd\
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Step 3 says to put them all in the same folder on my C drive.

"Step 3: Place Files

Create a folder in c drive named adb,

unzip/extract files,

copy AdbWinUsbApi.dll, AdbWinApi.dll, adb.exe, fastboot.exe, fbmode, fff-u-boot_v1.5.bin, and openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.1-blaze.img to adb folder."

I am sooooooo confused right now!!!

I was following step by step. I got the kindle to Root... but then it all went down hill from there. And now it's bricked. ANd I can't figure out how to get out of it.

As I said.. i've been trying for three days now.. All different methods.

I keep running into problems with the CMD prompts..

That is until I somehow bricked it. Now I can't seem to do ANYTHING on it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Create a folder in c drive named adb
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
One of the methods I was trying was this : http://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-unbrick-your-amazon-kindle-fire-46412/

However, once again, whenever it goes into the CMD phase, I get the phrase: "ADB server didn't ACK... Cannot connect to daemon"

So before I can unbrick it, I'm thinking I need to fix this other problem FIRST. The "ADB server didn't ACK... Cannot connect to daemon" problem.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
I have not got that to work with System version 6.3.3 or 6.3.4.

It's not bricked it's in fastboot mode, where it needs to be to flash FFF and Twrp, the problem is your pc and the commands you are using.

Create a folder in c drive named adb
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
OK.. done..

I've attached an image showing what files are in the folder.

Now I opened a cmd window in C and Started step 4. But I got an error message: * daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 * ADB server didn't ACK * failed to start daemon * error: cannot connect to daemon.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Kindle is in Fastboot mode

adb commands will not work

Use Fastboot commands

see Step 6
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Thank you so much for your help so far..

OK.. so I went ahead and tried step 6. Although the response didn't come back as it should have. I then went to the troubleshooting page and input:

If you got to step

Code:

fastboot devices

and do not get a proper code return, and you have checked drivers in Device Manager, or drivers don't seem to install correctly

you can try

Code:

fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

then

Code:

fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot"

But now when i try to move ahead, the cmd window says it's waiting for device.

The Kindle at first looked as if it were going to reboot, but after a couple of times where the Kindle Fire logo went on and off ( at first disjointed then normal) . then it just stayed on that . Now underneath it says : Battery is too low ( 29%) . Please wait while your Kindle charges.

So I guess I just wait for it to charge? I'm not sure.

What do you suggest my next steps to be?

Again.. Thank you so much for taking the time to help me!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
UPDATE:

Well after a while , the Kindle Fire restored itself to factory.. Had me input all my info again on the Kindle.

So I guess one problem is fixed... It's not Bricked.

Is it still rooted as it was before the problem. And if it is, can I then install FFF and TWRP?

And Finally.. THANK YOU so much for helping me UNBRICK it in the first place!!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Did you use install.drivers.bat from Kindle Fire Utility? If not do so now.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
I think your kindle is already rooted.

Install Root Checker and see if root is correct.

if it is watch my video

[Video] [How-To] Flash FFF/TWRP without Fastboot Cable and Flashing FFF and TWRP
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
sd-shadow,

Thank you AGAIN!!!

Unfortunately.. after all that work.. it turns out that the kindle never even was rooted..

It turns out that there was a problem with the SuperSU... It kept crashing.. I couldn't update it... It kept saying that the superus binary needed to be updated. Soo the full root never went through. Which then held up any other thing I tried to do... Install TWRP.. Install FFF.. Nothing wanted to go through because the SuperSU was broken on the download.. AT least, nothing I could do could make it work.

SO my next move was to, try an earlier version of KFU.. I tried.. KFU v 0.9.8 and LASTLY v 0.9.6. Now that one seemed PROMISING, but ultimately, once i ran the run.bat, I could never get the the boot load to read 4000. It wouldn't do it automatically and neither when ii tried setting it by going through the "Bootmode Menu". I even went so far as to disable Driver Signing check on Windows. All to no avail. I've set the kindle back to default restore about 6 times..

That is the point where I'm at now.

If you could possibly help me get it rooted while putting on TWRP and FFF.. I would LOVE it.

I've watched all your videos and gone step by step.. STILL NOTHING!!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
KFU will not root 6.3.3, you just wasting time.

Use install.drivers.bat to install drivers

Then root.

If saferoot doesn't work use

RootMaster Links

Rootmaster apk or Here

and

Rootmaster.exe run from PC

Most android devices are rootable by one or both these options.

These are made by Chinese devs, not open source, but have been used by many people, with no known issues.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!! It's ROOTED now.. I THINK!! lol

You're a LIFESAVER.

Soooo.. Now how can I get Play store... TWRP and FFF??

It seems that all the ways I tried yesterday.. something Always seemed to go wrong.

I'd get so close.. but just off..

Any links or suggestions.. What steps should I take?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
CRAAAAAAP!!!!!

Step 4 Problem..Push Fastboot Mode File to Kindle.

ADB server didn't ACK

*failed to start daemon *

error: cannot connect to daemon.

I'll attach a pic.

I went through sooo many fixes yesterday, that I can't remember the solution for this.

Now what??
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Running as administrator?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Yes Sir..

Ran it both ways..

Once normal, then as administrator.

Same results.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
open "taskmgr" and kill any "adb.exe" running

or try

adb kill-server
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Nothing in Task mgr

Tried the adb kill server... Nothing..

Same problem.

I'll attach a picture.

Did i put it in the right order?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Commands look fine.

Do you have a different pc?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
Unfortunately no. Not tonight anyway.

I'll try and borrow one tomorrow.

Thank you again.. as always.

I'll let you know how it comes out tomorrow.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol865:
SUCCESS!!!!

SD-SHADOW,

I want to THANK YOU for your time and patience with me! I FINALLY got it rooted and installed TWRP and I think FFF. So now I have the Google play store. Everything seems to be running well.

Two quick questions:

1) When I tried to install the TWCTV app (Time Warner Cable TV app) that lets me watch TV on my kindle, a POP UP appears saying " DEBUG MODE IS UNSUPPORTED- Please disable USB debugging under developer settings then restart TWC TV"

I tried to search for it, but I can't seem to find it to click off. Is there a way? Or is this just an impossibility?

2) what is your favorite Custom ROM that I can install?? Or should I just keep it as is?

Again.. THANK YOU sooooo much!!!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Stock rom has usb debugging on by default, and there is no way to turn off with stock settings.

There maybe an app that can, there are several system settings apps in store.

Stock rom is the most stable and best battery life.

Cm7 is similar.

You will likely find cm11 and cm12 slow to respond.

There is a working TWRP version, so no need to replicate CWM !!!

Instead, what would add most value is if somebody managed to disable checking for signed bootloader/kernel.

First make sure you have unlocked Bootloader for this!

(when not you must downgrade to EMUI 2.3 and root it with root_genius.

this will also unlock the Bootloader ;) )

Reboot in to bootloader and flash twrp for EMUI 3.1/Android 5.1.1

Reboot into TWRP and flash the latest SuperSu thx [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]

Reboot you're Phone an install Terminal Emulator and Busybox from Playstore.

Now type in the following commands:

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

cd system

lsattr

chattr -R -i *

rm –f /system/set_immutable.list

lsattr ( only to check if set_immutable.list is gone)

Now you should have full root !
