TWRP Recovery & Possible ROM Issues

Ilia Goro · Mar 26, 2013

I rooted my kindle fire using kfu 9.8. As of this moment when I install roms they do not boot up and they stay at the boot logo. I dont know if it has to do with TWRP or the roms, but I have tried 2 cm10 roms and one AOSP 4.2.2 rom. I will tell you exactly what I did.

1. Rooted with kfu
2. went straight to recovery, flashed the aosp rom + google apps
3. Booted up and it stayed at the boot screen
4. Tried another rom, put it onto the device through usb mounting with twrp
5. Still stuck at boot logo
6. Tried the last rom but still stuck!!

After that I tried to flash back to stock using this
(doesnt let me post a link if requested I will pm)
But twrp gave an error and it did not install, it said somewhere an error doesnt matter and you would boot up fine but I didnt

Between installing all Roms I wiped cache, dalvik, and factory reset.

Thanks in advnce!

EDIT

Used this to try to bring to stock
theunlockr DOT com/2012/10/29/how-to-unroot-the-amazon-kindle-fire

Used these roms (all on xda)

/showthread.php?t=2041694
cant find the third rom

EDIT

I have no problem using adb or fastboot so feel free to try and fix my problem with those.

It would be very helpful to know exactly what error you are receiving.

assert failed:getprop ("ro.product.device") == "blaze" l l
E:unknown command {err_string}
getprop ("ro.product.device") == "blaze"
E:unknown command {err_string}
E:Error in sdcard/update.zip
Status 7
Error flashing zip /sdcard/update.zip
Updating partition details

That is exactly what I get while flashing

Im sorry for making the topic and/or wasting your time, before installing the rom I wiped every single thing possible and it succesfully nstalled.

I have no problem if you lock.

I had the same issue using TWRP 2.4.x.x. I was able to return to stock by downgrading to TWRP 2.2.2.1. Good luck.

By any chance, can you please give me the link to the TWRP 2.2.2.1?
TIA.

PLEASE HELP! Kindle Fire 1st Gen. I've looked everywhere for answers

Okay, This is the first time Ive ever posted anything on this site. Normally I just search for answers and people usually have already solved the problem so I just go off what other people post. But now I cannot seem to find any fix I rooted my Kindle Fire 1st Generation. I was running TWRP 2.2.2. and a Hellfire ROM. I went on vacation and left my Kindle at home. When I got back, most of my apps weren't working properly and my keyboard was glitching so I tried to update my ROM. It was unsuccessful. So I thought maybe if I upgraded my TWRP Recovery to the latest version It would fix the problem... I was wrong. Whenever I try to flash any ROM I get an error like this... (E:Error executing updater binary) I have searched for answers for about a month now and nothing seems to work. I dont know what to do and I feel like crying. Can someone please help me? Please?

I'm currently running TWRP v2.6.0.0
And I'm trying to flash ANY android version.
So far I have tried flashing the latest HellFire, Kit Kat, and Jellybean Stock Roms, All have been unsuccessful.
All I want is to be able to use my kindle without wanting to smash it to pieces, lol. I'm tired of getting booted off the internet every 2 minutes and my apps to force closing on me.

Do you have fastboot and adb drivers for your PC?? Do you have fastboot.exe and adb.exe... I assume your running windows....

Thank you! I will do this now and I will let you know when I have it installed. Do I just flash it through recovery or?...
Also, I do not have fastboot and adb drivers on my PC. Where do I go to get them? Running Windows 7

Thanks! Okay so TWRP update was successful. Then I followed the link for ADB and fastboot. I installed them to PC. Now, just to be clear.. Was I supposed to do that with the USB connected to my device? or was that just for my PC? I just dont want to mess anything up.
