By the time you arise we will be a sleep! Yes, your information was very helpful thank you.

When you get up, download and extract the update, use 7-Zip to extract it, I do not trust WinZip. I left you quite a post that includes several steps to try. Be sure you go back through the posts to find it, probably 5 posts behind this one [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38409620&postcount=1017"]Post Number 1017[/URL].

When you extract the update, please extract it to a folder on your desktop, then copy and past the entire contents of the KFFirstAide64 to C:\KFFirstAide answer YES to overwriting the files. Create a new shortcut per post #1017: [URL]http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38409620&postcount=1017[/URL]

Hi Chris

variable value = %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\ KFFirstAide

dekor8tor,

As long as it looks like the exact same place as the screen shots the I will say OK. Plug the Kindle into USB, make sure Enable ADB is ON under More + Security. You will know you got it correct when you can drop to command anywhere like C:\Windows\System32 and type the following:

Code:
cd C:\Windows\System32
adb kill-server
adb wait-for-device
adb devices

If you get a serial number you did it! If you do not look in the Windows Device Manager, what do you see? Do you see:

Kindle > Android ADB Interface
Portable Devices > Kindle

Please update us tomorrow, we are going to bed soon.

We made some important changes to Rev 60, please download and extract the complete package. Be careful to NOT create a second folder inside of C:\KFFirstAide OK? The best poractice is to download the new package to your desktop, use 7-Zip to unzip it, then transfer copy and paste all the files and folders in the desktop package. So when you extract on the desktop you will have a folder named KFFirstAide64 or KFFirstAide32, open this folder, select all the items and choose COPY, then navigate to C:\KFFirstAide and open this folder, then Right Hand Mouse click over the C:\KFFirstAide folder and select Paste. Be sure to answer YES to overwriting the contents.

Kindle Fire First Aide Revision 4.1.60-Beta for Windows - Bricked

Prokennexusa,

Sorry it's not working, I am still stuck on the blue kindle logo :(

AmrBanawan,

Is it the usual Blue logo or is it the broken blue logo? If you plug it into USB does the device Manager pick it up? What is the model is it a Kindle Fire HD 8.9"? Do you have a Factory USB Cable? Where are you, in the US? I could overnight you a Factory USB Cable. Please respond with these answers and we will see what we can do to get you back online. If we have to I can get you a new one through Amazon,so do not worry, these are the risks when we are tinkering.

Kindle Fire First Aide Revision 4.1.60-Beta for Windows - Root

hi chris i ran those cmds again and i think i have got the path right now

dekor8tor,

Looks great! Great work! I am going to bed soon it is 4:47am. Please download the update, run Option 21 to Root.

Be sure to setup the shortcut per the setup instructions on Page 1 in this thread, please take a few moments to read the post and setup the shortcut properly otherwise the software will fail to run properly.

The key posts are to Create a shortcut to the desktop from C:\KFFirstAide\RunMe.bat as per the instructions then Right Mouse Click Properties on the shortcut and check "Run As Administrator".

After you are 100% sure you set it up properly, then launch the software run a Option 11 test, if it passes Run Option 21 to Root.

Be sure to pay close attention to the Kindle for 2 things:

1st: The Restore - Click on Restore when you see it show up on the Kindle. Then pay close attention to our software there will be times you need to press any key to continue

2nd: Pay attention to a SuperSU or Superuser Pop-up or Request on the Kindle, be sure to Allow or Grant the request.

DO NOT install the Google Play or Google Apps until we are 100% sure you have Root, OK? If something fails, post the failures. As the Root process runs there may be minor errors, these can be expected since we are Exploiting the Kindle to Root it. If you have additional questions I will be back up in about 8 hours.

downloading now at 40 kB/s :p
In other words: Please upload it where you have uploaded it before :)

Random Username,

Your ISP must be throttling Dropbox accounts that is terrible I would complain to your ISP. We have an Unlimited Dropbox account with Unlimited bandwidth. This is a business Dropbox account your ISP has no business doing this! Anyway, it will take me some time, I have to upload the update manually to the other account, this will not be done before I go to sleep, we will have to give you the links tomorrow when we wake up, sorry, it is 4:57am, I have to get to bed!

fs1023,

Sorry for the delayed response, we missed your response by 20 minutes! That is, we went to bed about 4:00am PST GMT -8. Let get you a solution!

The error to focus our attention is specifically: "adb is not a recognized command" - we are paraphrasing but we are sure you get the idea. Since "adb.exe" is located in the base of C:\KFFirstAide where RunMe.bat is located, we can conclude a few possible solutions:

Possible Problem 1: RunMe.bat was accidentally moved to the desktop during setup.

Solution to 1: Move RunMe.bat back to C:\KFFirstAide then Right Hand Mouse Click on RunMe.bat choose "Send To" then "Desktop Create Shortcut"

Possible Problem 2: When you extracted the update you accidentally created a second folder inside C:\KFFirstAide named KFFirstAide or KFFirstAide32 or KFFirstAide64.

Solution to 2: Copy the entire contents of the second folder to the base of C:\KFFirstAide

Possible Problem 3: When you extracted the software you accidentally created a folder named C:\KFFirstAide32 or C:\KFFirstAide64

Solution to 3: Remove the 32 or 64 so the folder name is C:\KFFirstAide

Possible Problem 4: You are missing the Windows Path Statement of ;C:\KFFirstAide

Solution to 4:

First Navigate to:
windows_environment_variables-500x368.png


Then find:

windows7_environment_variables-282x600.png


The PATH STATEMENT should look like this, IGNORE THE BLUE HIGHLIGHTED SECTION THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT LOCATION. The correct Path to edit is the one above PATHEXT named PATH. Select PATH with the mouse and choose Edit, then add ;C:\KFFirstAide

path.jpeg


Finally, make sure you are using this version:

We solve the Permission denied issue and the build.prop edit issues - here it is hot off the presses at 23:53 on 02/22/2013.

Rev 4.1.53 Change Log:
1. Fixed Permission Denied Problem
2. Changed the timing on Option 21
3. Streamline code - processes at a faster rate of speed
4. Changed Enable OTA to Selective Enable
5. Found double quotes with the build.prop lines, this caused the build.prop edits to fail.
6. Removed the Symbolic Link to Temp after every install

prokennexusa many thanks for your help.

Problem 3 was the issue, I had folder named C:\KFFirstAide32 instead of C:\KFFirstAide so deleted 32 from file name as you suggested and WOW!

Tried option 11 in KFFirstAide and device is seen :) I Tried option 13 to do a complete backup before root but it did not work, no backup folder on device and no files in backup folder in KFFirstAide.

Do I need root to back up??

To tell you the truth I am scared in case I brick my device even though I have ordered a Factory cable from SkOrPn (what do you do with this cable??).

Anymore help (though no responsibilities on your part, they are all mine) would be most appreciated as I really want to learn and use KFFirstAide to be able to get the best out of my Kindle Fire HD 7.

Many thanks

Thanks, but I already started the Dropbox download, so please do it for the next version :)
Also, the download speed varies between ca. 20 kB/s and 60 kB/s, so I don't think the ISP is limiting anything. Maybe it's just the distance.

OK, I ran Fix Permissions again and it looks normal now. It says it should take over 15 minutes but it's through almost instantly for me though. This is the output:
attachment.php

And the Holo Launcher installation still doesn't work.

Chris,

My kindle's kindle fire logo is orange usually :D, but it turns blue if i run option 27, first the usual red but the animated glowing one is blue, My kindle is the 7" an i do have a factory, I am not really stuck, I can re-flash the system image at any time i just want to know why this happens every time i try option 27 .

Permission Errors

Kindle Fire HD, Windows 7,

Finally rooted with another tool. I am still getting errors with this software (I Think they are errors)

When I went to fix permissions I get among other things.

sh: cannot create nul: read only file system

rm: failed for data/local.prop, no such file or directory.

The only good thing I can say is the it doesn't seem to be effecting the operation of the kindle.

Awesome I will have to give it a try when my kindle arrives:good:

I think you can recover from the lag (and it is more than lag . . . it is almost s-l-o-w-m-o-t-i-o-n-! effect)
Bottom line is run adb reboot recovery and chose restore to factory defaults. Bad news is you will have to resinstall apps good news is you should still have root and prokennexusa's great KFTT image as base!

Here is what happened to me:
I downloaded and tried the newest firstaide software package (Saturday 2.23) and after running several options also was hit with the KFTT slow down. The slow down was serious --it was five to 10 seconds or more in response to touches and then actions in the KFTT.

In detail: I had done three things
- first installed the KFTT drivers (again) and there was no problem;
- second was to test the drivers and again there was no problem.
- third I ran two more sequences one to upgrade the audio, and one to the replace the KFTT screen lock option

I think the change unloack screen did it to my KFTT. That sequence ran and the lock screen was blank (I did not get to do the app store download and add themes --since everything slowed down at this point.

It might have been coincidence, but I also lost my driver for adb connection - the windows 7 (64) vmware window suddenly told me that the device was unrecognized! tried reinstalling driver a few times and it did not seem to change anything ;-(

I rebooted the KFTT several times and had no good effect, so I plugged the (very very slow) KFTT back into the computer, switched back to mac os (Mountain Lion) opened a terminal window and tested adb devices --fortunately, I could see the kftt so I sent adb reboot recovery and that forced the KFTT into the recovery mode (boy i wish we had TWRP on this model!)

That was ok, since I still had two options were reboot and restore to factory settings. I did reboot once and that reboot had no good effect on the lag, so I did it again and chose restore and wow. . .

The KFTT restored to the original setting --which was prokennexusa's image that I had loaded a couple of weeks ago! So I had root, I had the play store and I even had some of my apps -and changes I made to OS to stop OTA and shift the preferred store away from Amazon (how di I keep those changes I wonder?) -all were back!
. . . and the KFTT worked perfectely!

I did have to reinstall my (90) apps since I was lazy before and never got around to actually spending 10 minutes to do the TIBU that I had planned to run "when my KFTT was perfect" But I am happy --all is working great again.

I am a bit leery of running the options again right now --but will see if I can get adb working again in the dos partition one of these days.

SO I do have to thank prokennexusa for that great rooted partition that came back to life when I "over-tweaked" some element using the first aide package. (But I think it was the screen lock or the audio option that induced the lag to my system. If it is the screen unlock, t\That seems odd since . . .when I had used it earlier in your noob thread for replacing the screen lock, it had worked perfectly. . .hmm very strange)

sorry I don't have the terminal window logs handy --I may have one in my vmware machine and if you think it helpful will open it and dig it out and add it

hope this helps!

good luck

LOLephant In The Room,

There are several main issues that will cause ADB to hang. ADB is not recognizing the device for some reason. Please look in the Windows Device Manager, do you see:

Kindle > Android ADB Interface
Portable Devices > Kindle

Sorry I was away from the computer for awhile. Originally I saw "Kindle > Android ADB Interface", but when I re-downloaded the newest Java, under device manager I now see "Portable Devices > Kindle".
Hope that helps.

update using rev60:

i was one who uses win7 x64 and installed previous version of google apps that caused the kindle to be unresponsive, laggy, black lock screen, flickering screens and it would say "My Kindle" at the top. after reinstalling google apps (#23) using rev60 it seems like My Kindle is now back to being Eric's Kindle, no more lag and flickering and the lock screen is back. thanks for your many hours of troubleshooing.

below is the last portion of the output i was able to copy. even though it got stuck at daemon started after its final reboot, its back to normal.

edit: just went to try out AVX and it didnt install. i then went to install it by clicking on com.bulletproof.voicerec.avxfree-1.apk using root explorer and it ends up failing with "application not installed"

    we love to give you the feature that are important to YOU not us.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 1: Using Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome or Internet Explorer Download Kindle Fire First Aide 4.1.100-Beta:
    KFFirstAide.zip

    Note: Be sure to extract the package to C:\KFFirstAide

    Update Java To The Latest Version here: Java SE Development Kit 7u25

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 2: Using either 7-Zip or Microsoft Zip, unzip the KFFirstAide100.zip to your C:\ Drive as C:\KFFirstAide

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 3: With your mouse, open the C:\KFFirstAide contents by double mouse clicking the C:\KFFirstAide folder

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 4: Find the RunMe.bat file. Right Hand Mouse click on RunMe.bat, select 'Send to', select Desktop (Create Shortcut). Now press the Left Hand Mouse button to create the Shortcut named RunMe.bat. Temporary disable the Android SDK.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 5: Find the RunMe Shortcut on your desktop, select it by left mouse click over the icon, then while on the icon choose Right Hand mouse click, select Properties.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 6: This will display the RunMe properties. Select the General Tab, change the top name to KF First Aide. Then click on the Shortcut tab, click on Advanced. Check 'Run as Administrator', click OK, then click Apply, then click OK. All windows should be closed.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 7: Double Mouse Click the new Icon named KF First Aide. You may be presented with a security window, just click Yes.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 8: Please click on the Windows Key plus Pause/Break, this will display the Windows System Properties. Next Click on the Advanced Tab and find "Environment Variables". Please click on Environment Variables and find the Path Statement. Carefully add at the end of the Path Statement:

    Code:
    ;C:\KFFirstAide

    Note: Do Not forget the (;) semi-colon before the C:\KFFirstAide

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 9: That is it! The software is ready. Next we get the Kindle ready to Flash.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 10: Next, go to the Kindle, pull down the status menu, select More+ then select Security, make sure Enable ADB is ON. Last, depress the <- and select Device. Make sure 'Allow Installation of Applications' is On.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 11: Insert the Original USB Cable to the Kindle, please ensure you have a solid connection, this is VERY critical.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 12: Next, make sure the Kindle Fire is Turned Off. Take the other end of the USB Cable and carefully inset it into a free USB Slot on your Computer - be careful to not disconnect the other end.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 13 : The Kindle Fire should automatically turn on and boot regular Bootmode. If the Kindle does not turn on depress the power button until it turns on. Next select Option 15 in the Software. The Kindle will reboot and will now see a screen that says: Fastboot Kindle Fire.

    Note: If Option 15 does not trigger the Kindle to boot into Fastboot, then your Bootloader is damaged. Please send SkOrPn a PM to order a Factory USB Cable.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 14: Place the Kindle on a safe surface so it does not disconnect when running the software.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 15: Launch the KF First Aide software by double mouse clicking on the KF First Aide icon.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 16: You will be presented with a Kindle Fire First Aide Menu, carefully select the operations you would like to perform on the Kindle.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 17: If the option states "Fastboot" you need to leave the Kindle as noted above, this is Fastboot Mode. As the last operation be sure to Wipe the Cache and User Data which is Backup Option 3 in the Menu.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 18: Next, we will disable "Fastboot Mode" and enable ADB on the Kindle Fire. Select Option 10 in the Software Menu, the Kindle will Reboot into Regular Mode.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Step 19: You may now perform the 'ADB Mode' options in the Menu.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Note 1: Remember, after you perform the full Recovery, you are working with a Fresh Copy of the Software. ADB is disabled by default so be sure to Enable ADB under Security and Allow Installation of Programs under the Device Tab.

    Kindle Fire First Aide Note 2: After the complete restore, please be sure to clear the Davlik Cache and the User Data by selecting Backup Option #3. You may also wipe the User Data and Cache by opening a Administrative Command Prompt within the KFFirstAide Folder and enter:

    Code:
    fastboot -i 0x1949 erase cache
    fastboot -i 0x1949 erase userdata 
    fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot

    Kindle Fire First Aide Note 3: The original versions of the Kindle Fire HD 8.9" with a software Versions 8.2.3 or 8.2.4 may find there Kindle Boot-loader loops to a Red Fastboot Screen. If your Kindle is stuck in Fastboot, please follow these steps to recover the Boot-loader: How To Recover Kindle Fire HD 8.9" Bootloader*

    Note: Please be aware of two main options in the Menu - one is Fastboot Mode where you have several Menu Operations that use Fastboot to execute properly and two is ADB Mode where you have several Menu Operations that use ADB to execute properly.

    Backup Option #1 Note: When selecting Backup Option 1 the images will be backed up to the SD Card in a folder named KindleBackup. Please copy this folder to your desktop until we are able to upload it to our secure servers. There will be a restore option in the future that will automatically pull YOUR images for restoration. There is a known Bug in Windows where you will not see the images in the Kindle Internal Drive which can be found in Computer. To overcome this issue, please download and install WiFi File Transfer then open your Web Browser to transfer these Backup files from your Kindle to the PC.

    Backup Option #2 Note: When selecting Backup Option 2 the images are first copied to the Kindle, then they are transfered to your Computer inside a folder named Backup which can be found inside the C:\KFFirstAide folder.

    *Note: After several conference calls with the Amazon Development Team we found Amazon applied a patch to the Bootloader in an effort to lock down the Bootloader, this patch rarely causes the Bootloader to stick or Bootloop, please use the above link to release the Bootloader. We have removed this patch from the boot-prod.img eliminating future issues with recovered HD 8.9" users.

    Krsmqn,

    We thought of you when we were developing this package, It took us over 4 months to perfect. We held back many feature, just wait until we release the Production Version of 4.2.3, it even made us smile:D. As we have said before,
    we are truly honored to be part of the XDA Community and feel blessed to be able to offer this software to XDA Members. This package and version 4.2.3 is fee based elsewhere.

    How To Manually Recover The Kindle Fire 8.9" Stuck In Fastboot?

    To All-

    If you would like to try a last ditch effort in getting the Kindle Fire 8.9" back online, please do the following:

    Step 1: Please run the Kindle Fire First Aide, attempt the HD 8.9" Recovery, if it fails move on to Step 2

    Step 2: Exit the Kindle Fire First Aide utility, double mouse click the KFFirstAide Folder.

    Step 3: Download Boot Image Number 1 from here (save the image to the KFFirstAide Folder): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54456659/kfhd-8.2.3/Images/boot-prod.img

    Step 4: Download Recovery Image Number 2 from here (save the image to the KFFirstAide Folder): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54456659/kfhd-8.2.3/Images/recovery-prod.img

    Step 5: Open up an Administrative Command Prompt from within the KFFirstAide Folder by opening up the KFFirstAide Folder then press your Right Hand Mouse Key while you are over the KFFirstAide Folder contents, then select Open a command prompt here. You should see something like

    Code:
    C:\Users\Your Name\KFFirstAide>
    Step 6: Next you would make sure the Kindle Fire is plugged into USB and Turned off, type the following and press enter after the command while the Kindle is off and plugged into USB:

    Code:
    fastboot reboot -i 0x1949
    Step 6: You will see a Windows Command Prompt that will look like:

    Code:
    C:\Users\Your Name\KFFirstAide>fastboot reboot -i 0x1949
    <waiting for device>
    Step 7: Next Power on the Kindle While you see the above, one the Kindle Boots the Kindle will suddenly reboot back into Fastboot although we have seen this step free the Bootloader, so if the Kindle begins to Boot normally unplug it from USB, if the Kindle boot back to Fastboot red screen proceed to step 8.

    Step 8: While the Kindle is in Fastboot Mode type the following at the Windows Command Prompt:
    Code:
    fastboot flash recovery recovery-prod.img -i 0x1949
    Code:
    fastboot erase cache -i 0x1949
    fastboot erase userdata -i 0x1949
    fastboot reboot -i 0x1949
    Step 9: Leave the Kindle Plugged into USB. Wait for the device to Boot back to Fastboot, if the device boot back to a Fastboot screen with odd vertical line running through it, stop here, the Kindle has begun the recovery phase. If the Kindle begins it recovery, it will react odd and reboot several times, this is normal. Wait 10 to 15 minutes. If the Kindle boot back to Red Fastboot Screen proceed to Step 10.

    Step 10: Leave the Kindle Plugged into USB. Next type the following command:

    Code:
    fastboot flash boot boot-prod.img -i 0x1949
    Step 11: Next let's do a little house cleaning. The following commands wipe the old Dalvik Cache and User Data which is, in simple, tied to the old Android Operating System. Having said this, when the new OS attempts to retrieve data from these partitions, a content stream of errors occur in the background, causing the Kindle to react VERY slow and at times completely unresponsive. To eliminate this problem we will wipe these partitions before booting the new OS. Please enter the following commands, press enter after each one:

    Code:
    fastboot erase cache -i 0x1949
    fastboot erase userdata -i 0x1949
    fastboot reboot -i 0x1949
    Step 12: Unplug from USB. The Kindle HD 8.9" will reboot with an odd Fastboot screen with vertical lines running through it, this is normal, do not interrupt the recovery. Let the Kindle begin it's recovery phase. This may take up to 10 to 15 minutes and the Kindle will reboot several times.

    Step 13: Once the Kindle Stabilizes, please be sure to apply the Amazon OTA Patch before connecting the Kindle to your WiFi, otherwise you will loose Root and Google Play Store which are both installed on the images.

    Step 14: After you applied the patches please wait for the Kindle to rebuild itself, this can take up to a couple of hours. If after 4 hours the Kindle is still reacting slow, perform a Kindle Fire HD 8.9" Factory Reset. This option can be found under the More+ > Device > Restore to Factory Defaults. We find this last step is rarely used.
