Can we please have an "I bricked my kindle" sub-forum? Because it seems like every other thread here is either, "yellow triangle" or "bricked"
.... just sayin!
Bump.

i am with that!
I agree we should have another subforum...
I was stuck on the yellow triangle at boot, use kindlefire utilities boot option to kick it back up, now restarts perfect every time unteathered.

Agreed, literally every thread has at least one person who post about their kindle being bricked. Or jut use the search feature before posting you bricked your kindle.

I think that makes way more sense then making a whole new sub-forum for something that every tab has.. I was able to search and read about 8 different threads last night that helped me fix my fiancée's bricked kf..

I guess it'd mess with the xda-developers set up mojo but the kindle fire is sort-of unique in that devices can get potentially bricked with OTA updates.
Whats your problem exactly?
I hate to thread jack but I would also like a forum specifically for the LG Optimus One P504. I can't find any help for it.

I was wondering if you can pre root an update and trick the kindle into thinking it was updating to a higher version.. if you could trick the version then u could even downgrade
###SO DOES ANYONE THINK THEY CAN DO IT?###

This is development!

No. Its a question about development. If everyone posted things wanted to know or learn about development in "development" this place would be flooded. Others have told you you posted in the wrong place and you argue why its not. Others have told you its against the rules to offer paid apps for free and you argue why its not. What is your purpose?

Compare build.props from latest to previous you will see the changes. I'm not sure how deep Amazon goes into identifying your device but build.prop is the place to start
I don't know if it's true for the Kindle, but at least for Verizon and the Droid series of phones, properly updating the ID in the build.prop will trick the OTA server into thinking the device has been updated already, when it hasn't. It's another way to block OTAs.
I'm trying to use it to downgrade
Sent from my Kindle Fire using xda premium
not possible, stock recovery wont flash any altered zip. or in your case, a prerooted zip. or even a older official zip. modifying the system files requires root, and if u have root you don't need to downgrade/spoof anything.
so in the end, unnecessary.

So after trying the "search the forum" advice I'm sure I will mostly get as responses to this thread my question is where can I find a guide to dualbooting the kindle fire(first gen with updated fff &twrp as of today). I'm no stranger to flashing and adb but I really like to research what I am about to do to my devices before I do it and cant find enough info on it.
I am interested in dualboot right now as my kid is old enough to work the stock Rom since the app icons are huge but I hate the stock Rom and really miss the android ui.

As soon as I ask I find the thread I was looking for all along.
Also the thread name should have read "Noob with a Noob question" they keyboard on the stock fire sucks.

I am getting a 2013 Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" 16GB, Thats Blacklisted but never turned on to WiFi.
Is there a safe and working normal Android ROM out that works for it? ANYTHING but that crap Amazon has on it please...
I have rooted my cell phones in the past but never a ROM change...
All it takes is about 5 minutes of reading to glance over the threads we have root but no roms yet

Just plain lazy. There are only a few pages of threads in the entire kindle fire hdx section of the forums.

Does any one else think that the kindle fire hd 2013 should get it's own section to make it easier on both groups of people? And so the topics for the different tablets don't get mixed in with one another?

yea i agree ive been back and forth past 2 days geting confused just to realise half of the stuff ive been doing is wrong due to not even knowing
As many of us know, there is a serious problem at hand that needs to be dealt with. The Kindle Fire HD 7" 2012 edition forums are being polluted with posts about the Kindle Fire HD 7" 2013 edition. Although these devices have similar hardware, they are NOT the same device. It might be okay if it were just a few posts, but this is getting ridiculous.
My proposed solution is for a new forum area to be created for the 2013 Kindle Fire HD 7" and to have all posts regarding them to be moved there.

I hear that. I posted a link in my signature to help guide people but seems lots of people have bought them recently. Not long ago I tugged a mods ear about this and the response was, basically, they would see about it but we're busy. I know a month ago it was a different scene for this table. I hope the powers that be will get something worked out, given it's increase in popularity.

There also seems to be some confusion on this device with the KF2. There has to be a better method of filtering these posts... I'm not slamming anyone here, I'm just saying...

It is really strange in my opinion how the HD7/8.9/KF2 got put in correctly, but the HDX7/8.9/HD2 did not get organized properly in regards to forums.
Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk
The forum is really getting flooded with people who are trying all sorts of things that the KFHD is not capable of doing yet. Amazon is about to get flooded with bricked KFHD 2013.

Maybe that's the idea. Maybe it's XDA's way of pissing off Amazon.

Lol. Protesting the locked bootloaders. If Amazon gets too many complaints of bricked devices, maybe they'll take off the restriction. XD

Agreed! If I bought a KFHD(2013) and come to this forum to try and modify it, I'd be like WTF am I suppose to start at ?? :what::banghead::sly: I'd most likely get myself bricked in the end lol
