I completely bricked my kindle fire 2. When I press the power button, no lights or anything happen. I was trying to install CM10 but I failed. Here is what I did,
I got my Kindle fire 2 on fastboot and then I flashed a new bootloader. Unfortunately the download for the bootloader I used just randomly stopped so most of the .bin wasn't even downloaded so basicly I flashed an incomplete bootloader.

Here is a link to the corrupted/incomplete bootloader
"mediafire.com/view/ma023jdf2xt70yy/otter2.bin" (Sorry xda won't let me post links)

As you can see the bootloader above is only 2kb and the original file was 220ish kb.

Now when I press the on button nothing happens, no lights or anything and my computer doesn't recognize anything when I plug it in. I have already tried the "hold power button for 20 seconds"

So how would I unbrick my kindle fire if I don't want to soldier stuff. If it isn't possible, would it be possible for amazon to give me a kindle fire at a discounted price even though I rooted it. (I also bought it on ebay like 8 months ago)
