[Q] Fastboot cable where to get in Europe/Germany?

[xerxes76]

Good morning,

in many threads here I found the recommendation to use a fastboot cable. I have recently rooted my Kindle Fire 2, it works like a charm, but I want to install a "true" Android on it because Amazon changed too many things which are annoying me. It's some kind of an Apple device...

But back to my question. Installing a CustomROM without a fastboot cable seems to be NOT RECOMMENDED (or impossible?)

Therefore: Where in Germany (or Europe) can I get a fastboot cable? Is maybe some kind of other cable known to be compatible?

You might also try amazon uk http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0099E59SG.
I don't know if they ship to the rest of europe, but it's worth a try.

I live in The Netherlands and also ordered my factory cable from SkOrPn. Took 9 days to get it here, but I ordered it during the holidays.

I can guide you on how to do it without cable, but it's not recommended in case something goes wrong
Bad flash/download etc

The cable that boots the Kindle Fire into fastboot mode is more generally known and advertised as a Motorola factory cable.

The last things I need are more cables, so I bought an adapter instead which converts your Kindle standard cable to a fastboot cable.. It worked perfectly, managed to brick my KF2 on the first attempt! However, it took a week to arrive by post from the USA to Marseille in France, which was very fast. Shipping is a bit steep, though. Take a look:

Yep, you only need to jump pin 1 to pin 4 to make a fastboot cord.
