[Q] Wiped / no adb / Stuck on Fastboo

[androidschima]

I feel silly and ashamed asking for help, but i f***ed up big time.

For some stupid reason I wiped my kindle and was left with only twrp. So no worries I thought Ill just push a rom back onto the sdcard via adb and all everything is fine...
So I though... win xp wont recognise the kindle any more. Well it does as amazon kindle 2 but not as adb device.

So I tried all this again:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37733595&postcount=361

and a little bit of this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069117&highlight=root
and several other crazy things I read on XDA. Nothing realy helped.

So I thought. Hey! Why not try fastboot.... So I did. What a noobish thing to do...

Looking around I found this:

screw adb in twrp, we'll use twrp's terminal emulator to go to fastboot with the command idme bootmode 4
In twrp, go to advanced. then go to terminal command. then press the select folder button.
type idme bootmode 4
reboot and you're in fastboot.


That is what I did.
Funny enough. Now ADB Drivers work perfectly and recognise Kindle as ADB device in the device manager.

Sadly though, when I try to connect through ADB or Fastboot in CMD no device is being detected.

I know you guys have better things to do than help noobsters to clean their mess up they have caused. However I would be dead gratefull if one of you mighty tech gurus could help me out on this one.

What can I do to get this fixed?

Thank you ever so much in advance!

I'm in a similar situation. TWRP will not mount anything, If i try to wipe cashe, ect it says failed. If i try adb push it does not work. At this point I would be fine with just going back to stock. Hopefully someone can find a solution to our problem.

What is the exact command you are running? Also uninstall any kindle drivers that are installed and let it reinstall the device, I always have to do that when I switch from adb recovery to fastboot, sometimes it will be part of a component device you have to uninstall, but in that case you have to check the components vid so you don't uninstall something else by accident. All fastboot commands should be prefixed with ”-I 0x1949” so for ex: fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product
Hope this helps.

hi there. thank you. when i type the command you said i get the following:

product otter2-prod-04
finished. total time: 0.016s

does this mean, that fastboot is actually working and i get a connection to the device?

ok i get in and out of fastboot fine. i looked through the commands here for fastboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23747804

so far so good.

However whenever i flash something onto the kindle in cannot find it. also when i am in twrp it tell me unable to mount data.

fastboot wont let me format the userdata. did i break the filesystem? this must have been done by twrp when accidently formatting it... right?

im stuck....

i flashed new recovery through fastboot because this was supposed to get the twrp 2.3.3.0 bug out of the system formatting the data partition in a way i could flash a rom onto it. so new twrp 2.7 flashed through fastboot. according to the cmd it worked all fine...

now i come into white blue boot loade choose recovery and kindle wont boot from there.

this is just f***d up. Next time i jsut keep my hands of jailbreaking hardware.

anychance anyone out there could give me a hand and get this fixed? I am

I thought 2.7 hadn't been release for kf2. You sure you flashed the right version for your device? If it is a kf2 then flash this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2218868

Once you flash it from fastboot, recovery should work again.

ok got a factory cable and flashed the recovery as you said like that:

fastboot i- 0x1949 flash recovery d:\.android\recovery\twrpnew.img
target reportet max downlaod size of 486539264 bytes
sending 'recovery* (6768 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.438s}
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [0.719s]
finished. total time 1.156s

so i reboot and select recovery but I get stuck on the blue white logo... what do I do wrong?

kindle fire first aid has them. But it downloads them off the net last i heard so you wont find the images directly in there unless i am mistaken.
