[BOOTLOADER] 2nd-Bootloader/Recovery unlock process for KFire 2 [TWRP 2.6.3.0]
- Thread starter Hashcode
- Start date
Hello
Just installed this and all is working REALLY great. One thing though: when I came from the 0115 to 20130129, market stopped working. I reflashed gapps and cleared cache and dalvik cache. I had to remove every updated from the market in order to get it working. Now it seems good.
Looking forward to see this in the official CM branch!

If in TWRP you did, WIPE for:
-SYSTEM
-FACTORY RESET
-FORMAT DATA
can you still install ROM if the whole SD card is erased?
I can adb push to /data/media but pushing ROM giving me an error of '/data/media': No space left on device
I tried push gapps and it says successfull showing the size of file transferred but when I reboot to TWRP and browse in file manager or install I can't find the gapps. Any advice?
Note: I can boot to Kindle fire blue boot screen and detect adb but in TWRP it doesn't show adb so I can't use the adb sideload functionality. I can also boot to fastboot by changing boot mode to terminal emulator via TWRP.
Thanks in advance!

As you deducted yourself: the emulated sdcard gets wiped after formatting data, so that is indeed a problem if you have put your update zip over there.
However, you can use adb to push the zip to your sdcard:
. You do not have to mount your sdcard in TWRP, just boot in recovery, connect to your computer and execute the above command. When you are asked to choose a zip from the sdcard, you will be able to see it.
I hear you coming: when you try to go to sdcard/ in the shell, you will get an error. Also "mount sdcard" is not possible. I don't known the reason behind this, all I know is that it is possible to push to there
Success,

Thanks for taking time to reply, I'm still having problems in pushing ROM to /data/media folder due to "No space left on device" error message. I wonder if I'm missing some steps since I can push gapps but unable to find it in TWRP. I hope someone who might had the same situation can help me, I'll just wait for others to reply. Thanks again.

73Introducing: Kindle Fire 2nd-bootloader + TWRP 2.6.3.0 for the Kindle Fire 2nd GEN
*** USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! WHILE I TRY MY BEST TO PROVIDE WORKING KERNELS/ROMS, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF THIS SOFTWARE OR ANYTHING I'VE WORKED ON SUDDENLY FRIES YOUR DEVICE. ***
*** READ CAREFULLY BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ***
*** Kindle Fire 1st-gen ROMs/KERNELS are *NOT* compatible with the Kindle Fire 2. Please only flash ROMs/KERNELS that are made for the Kindle Fire 2. ***
** IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, RE-READ THROUGH THE THREAD FOR ANSWERS. WHEN YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY SURE NO ONE HAS ASKED YOUR QUESTION, GO AHEAD AND RE-READ THE THREAD AGAIN AND USE THE SEARCH FEATURE. THEN POST YOUR QUESTION IF YOU STILL CAN'T FIND THE ANSWER **
** WHEN MOVING FROM AMAZON OS TO CM10.1 IN TWRP: "WIPE" -> "SYSTEM" AND "FACTORY RESET" TO CLEAR SYSTEM/DATA/CACHE. YOUR APPS FROM AMAZON ICS AREN'T COMPATIBLE. IF NOT YOU'LL LOOP ON THE CM10.1 BOOT ANIMATION **
[03/27] NEW support thread for OFFICIAL CM on the Otter2 (Kindle Fire 2):
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2209995
** YOU SHOULD HAVE A WORKING FASTBOOT CABLE + FASTBOOT DRIVERS/ACCESS ON YOUR PC. **
Q: How do I know if my fastboot works?
A: Plug the cable into your device and then the computer. Reboot the Kindle. It *SHOULD* show a Fastboot screen. Once at the screen use this command on your computer:
fastboot -i 0x1949 devices
You should see something like this:
0123456789ABCDEF
Here's 1 website you can purchase a FASTBOOT adapter from (works with your normal USB cable)
http://shop.teamblackhat.info/Factory-Adapters-motadapt.htm
** I don't make any commission or fee from the sales of these devices, I just know they have them on stock most of the time and ship in a reasonable time frame unlike the Chinese variants found on ebay.
If you do NOT see this, then make sure you have the SDK installed correctly and you have the right setup for fastboot on your PC before proceeding.
*** BE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD CHARGE ON THE DEVICE ***
INITIAL SETUP INSTRUCTIONS (1st TIME ONLY) FOR 2ND-BOOTLOADER + TeamWinRecoveryProject INSTALL:
STEP 1. Backup your stock partitions to your own HD for later if you need disaster recovery:
Take those files and put them somewhere safe.Code:adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 adb pull /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/boot adb pull /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/recovery adb pull /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system # This will take a few minutes
STEP 2: Download the files you will need to install 2nd-bootloader, TWRP and CM10.1:
- Stack override file:
http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/otter2/stack - [12/09] otter2-freedom-boot-10.4.6.img (USED ONLY THE FIRST TIME -- .zip files will have their own boot.img's from now on):
http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/otter2/otter2-freedom-boot-10.4.6.img
md5sum: 80f9b9ba80910de361463560f86f315a - [09/03] TeamWin Recovery 2.6.3.0:
http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/otter2/otter2-twrp-2.6.3.0-recovery.img
md5sum: a66a8cbab92fd5daaa85f6303e9cc0c3 - older 10.2.4 bootloader file and flash to your device via fastboot:
http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/otter2/otter2-u-boot-prod-10.2.4.bin
md5sum 5b03a7b428325de8d360ec201a745498
(You SHOULD check the MD5SUM before using fastboot -- downloads CAN be corrupted) - CM-10.1/CM-10.2 for the Kindle Fire 2 (choose the latest version from):
http://www.get.cm/?device=otter2 - Google Apps from: http://goo.im/gapps (choose the version: CM10.1 or CM10.2)
STEP 3. Install the stack override in /system:
ADB commands entered while booted up into STOCK *rooted* Amazon Kindle OS -- May need to enable ADB debugging in Settings:
[2013-08-21] edited the location where stack is placed on device due to permissions changes
Code:adb push stack /sdcard/ adb shell su -c "dd if=/sdcard/stack of=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system bs=6519488 seek=1"
[ Connect fastboot cable, and reboot the device so that "Fastboot" is showing ]
STEP 4.
Flash the OLD bootloader, new otter2-freedom-boot.img and TWRP recovery.[/B]
*DONT RE-FLASH FREEDOM-BOOT.IMG LATER AFTER FLASHING CM10.1 -- IT'S FOR STOCK AMAZON OS ONLY / FIRST INSTALL ONLY*
Code:fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader otter2-u-boot-prod-10.2.4.bin fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot otter2-freedom-boot-10.4.6.img fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery otter2-twrp-2.6.3.0-recovery.img fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
** If everything was done correctly you will at this point see the bootmenu with a BLUE logo during the reboot. **
TO ENTER RECOVERY:
During the blue logo screen press the power button to cycle through options and select "Recovery" to enter TWRP.
Once in TWRP you can Install" the CM-10.1/CM-10.2 by selecting "Install" and then browsing the device and selecting it, then "Add Zip" and select the Gapps .zip as well.
Use the slider to start the install.
FLASHING BACK TO STOCK:
** FIND THE FILES WE BACKED UP IN STEP #1 OR DOWNLOAD NEW ONES FROM THE RECOVERY THREAD HERE: **
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2035047
Once you have these files (we'll name them boot.img/recovery.img and system.img for the purpose of these instructions, but they could be different on your system).
Plug in your fastboot cable and reboot so that you see the fastboot screen and enter the following commands:
Code:fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot [B]boot.img[/B] fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery [B]recovery.img[/B] fastboot -i 0x1949 flash system [B]system.img[/B] # This one will take a few minutes fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
Enjoy
