Hi I bricked my device last week, I have a factory cable and my pc still wont find my device.
I was trying to change it into a full android device an it bricked at the last step.
I bought a factory cable and it did initially show in my devices, but I foolishly un-installed it.
Now I need to get my device to find the Kindle so I can rebuild it.
Help needed.

Hey Guys. I have a Rooted Kindle Fire 2nd Gen, it was working fine when out of the blue it restarted on it's own and I get an error message saying I needed to restart or reset the device. I tried restarting but I kept getting the same error so I decided to reset. The process started out fine, the Kindle logo comes up but then I get a red screen and it just stays that way. I searched online and realized that my Kindle was bricked and I needed a fastboot cable, which I currently don't have. Is there any way at all to unbrick this device without using a fastboot cable? All suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you guys.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Try asking in your device's specific forum here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd But two thoughts, if something just happens out of the blue it's usually a hardware issue. And, you're only other hope is to return the device to stock and you're going to need the cable to do that.

Hi, tried searching the forums but cannot find anything.
I've got a 1st Gen Kindle Fire HD, which belonged to my younger sister. One day out of the blue, she approached me because the kindle had stopped working.
Basically, whenever i try and boot up the kindle, the standard kindle logo displays, then almost immediately jumps to a fastboot logo and stays there.
When connected to a pc, it's no longer detected as a kindle, but comes up as 'bowser-09' i did "correct this" by manually installing the android adb drivers and it recognises as that now.
I've tried the unbrick tool and kindle fire utility, and both tell me that the device cannot be found, i've also purchased a factory cable, but had no further luck.
The device isn't rooted and everything on the device was stock. When i contacted amazon customer services, they told me the reason it was stuck in fastboot was that i'd tried to modify the device, so they wouldn't send a replacement.
Any help would be appreciated as i don't want to be left with an expensive paperweight, and have to fork out for a new device.

Hello,
I think I have semi hard bricked my phone, and have been surfing since then, to find a solution :
I un rooted via kingoroot in order to change the glass that was on warranty.
I decided then to execute ART instead of dalvik, and the phone won't boot till then.
It charges, the boot sequence stops at the logo.
I'm unable to use the recovery or download modes.
The phone is not recognised on windows .
--> using a FEL Mode, I guess, the device is recognised as an external SD ith 22 partitions.
I don't have the images of my phone (CAT s50), but the specs are similar to the LG G3 Vigor :
CPU/GPU etc...
I know that it is written everywhere that you can't intall a rom not suitable for your phone, because I think it leads to a bricked device.
The fact is I don't know the level of inutility of my ex-phone.
Did someone ever grafted a ROM from another brand?
Has someone an information to recover my old and functionnal cat s50 from the FEL mode?

I have been searching all day trying to fix this and nothing seems to be working.
I've tried the Kindle Fire Unbricking Tool - no luck. I've tried using RootJunkies SuperTool and that was not very helpful either (though it did recognize my device when nothing else would). I've tried going into ADB manually through CMD and that was no use. It couldn't find my device. My PC is recognizing my Fire as TP-LINK Android Phone and the tablet won't start up at all. It's stuck perpetually on the Cyanogenmod boot-screen. I accidentally checked the 4th box when I was using FlashFire to flash the Cyanogenmod 12.1 version and I believe I wiped my internal memory. Is there any hope?
