Howdy!
It was literally AGES ago that I rooted my Kindle.
It's been totally fine forever! Then last night it needed charged so I plugged it in and went to bed. When I got up in the morning the power button was lit a nice shade of green, showing it was charged....
So later in the day I went to turn it on... nothing.... So I held the button to reset it.... After a bit I pressed the button...
The Blue KindleFire screen came up (with the statement at the bottom to "Press power button for boot menu...)
I didn't press anything, but it acts like I did and soon I see the three choices of "Normal Boot, Recovery, Reset Boot Mode" and the lines on each end move from choice to choice over and over....
That's all it does! I can press the power button and it doesn't do a thing. It just keeps scrolling.... If I hold the power button, it'll shut off after awhile.... but when trying to boot it again, it goes right back to that boot menu, scrolling through my choices and that's it. I have yet to find a way out of that.
I've tried plugging it into the charge to see if for some reason it's a power issue, but it does the same thing. I've tried plugging it into the PC via USB cable and it does the same thing!
Anyone have any suggestions or pointers? I'm kinda lost at this point, I've never had an issue that I couldn't recover it from until now, and I've had this thing for a good number of years.
