Screen won't turn on, battery indicator light works

[chris_m128]

I recently installed Alien Droid for kf2 on my kf2 and everything was going smoothly so I doubt it was that, but I woke up this morning to a kindle fire that wouldn't turn on at all, the screen doesn't flash or anything and it just stays blank. I've done the hard reset where you hold power button for 20 seconds and still nothing. The battery indicator light comes on when I plug it in and it will turn off when I do the hard rest. Could this have anything to do with maybe the battery dying overnight?

While it's plugged in to the computer (given time to boot normally), are you able to communicate with the device via adb?

Nope, I've also left it to charge for about six hours. Now when I try to press power button it flashes green but the screen does nothing

I would suggest checking to see if it can be detected by Linux (lsusb). If not, your last available option may be to try and usbboot. I can't imagine what would cause the device to act such a way, but guess it's still remotely possible that the bootloader or bootloader partition got corrupted.

Hopefully, you're not looking at a bad eMMC.

I have a suggestion that your kindle has a bsod (black screen of death) hold the power button for 20 sec. and then press it another 3 sec. hopfuly i am right and your kindle will turn on. have this bsods 1-2 times per day.

It absolutely sounds out of power.

I know when my kindle isn't charged the light blinks like that. Maybe if the above suggestions don't work.. Try another charger

I just realized you have a kf2 and not a kf1, so usbboot is obviously not an option for you. Disregard my previous statement.

You' already tried the hard shutdown and you say you've let it charge, but have you tried letting it charge while completely powered down?

Outside of that, I wish I had a better suggestion for you. It's definitely an odd situation.
