I've been a lurker of this forum for years. I just joined and I've always done my research before posting anything. But I'm at a loss right now and I do not know what to do.
I have a Kindle Fire HDX 7" (Thor), yesterday I was trying to flash an Android ROM on it. I got up to the point where I was in TWRP, and I accidentally factory reset the Kindle thru TWRP. When the Kindle rebooted, it showed a screen that said something like...
"Kindle Fire System Recovery; Your Kindle doesn't seem to be able to boot. Resetting your device to Factory defaults may help you to fix this issue."
The choices it gave me were, "Reboot your Kindle" and "Reset to Factory Defaults"
I rebooted my Kindle as a first choice, and it booted back to the same screen. So then I reset to factory defaults. Nothing worked and it kept bringing me back to that screen. I'm guessing there is no bootloader or anything on the Kindle.
I left the Kindle on for hours as I was trying to find my fastboot cable knowing that I would probably need it to fix this problem. I then turned off the Kindle hours later (press and hold until screen shut off). I did have a full battery prior to trying to put an Android ROM on the Kindle.
This morning I found my fastboot cable, but when I pressed the power button on the Kindle, it will not turn on. No response from it at all. Did I drain the battery?
When I plug my Kindle to my computer using the fastboot cable, it was showing me "QHSUSB_BULK" in the USB device list. I tried ADB, but it says "error: device not found".
When I plug my Kindle to charge, it doesn't show the low battery/charging indicator like it used to.
What should I do next? Is my Kindle permanently bricked?
I need mad help right now!
