Hey I have a question on how to unbrick my kindle fire on a mac using a factory reset cable. I'm not very tech savvy so I need STEP BY STEP instructions. The kindle is just stuck at the gray and orange Kindle Fire screen. I bricked it while trying to revert back to kindle stock os. Any help would be great thanks.

I bougt a second hand bricked hdx 7'' yesterday before i read some topic show that the factory cable method is unavailable for hdx. When i try to plug it in with usb cable, nothing happens. Another try with factory cable, windows realize the device is HS-USB QDLoader 9008. I ask the previous owner and she said that she did nothing except download ebook and surf web with its original web browser. After 2 days, she stuck in the screen shows 2 lines : Reset kindle and factory reset "Your Kindle doesn't seem to be able to boot", she chose factory reset again 2 times but it stuck again. I think she absolutely didn't touch anything in system files and it also unroot too. The only reason i can imagine that the hdx was bricked because of unsuccessful OTA update.
I also cannot get any information about the version of stock FireOS . Is there any solution for my problem? I have to wait for it?
Ok so about a month ago my tablet bricked because i was stupid and downloaded google play store apps off of the 1MobileApp Market, and i shut down my tablet and when i turned it back on later it went through the Red Triangle Recovery Loop
and i instanlty went online looking for help, and discovered i would need a Fastboot cable which i now have, however in many recovery solutions the ADB would not detect my device, and ive screwed with the drivers so much it doesn't even detect my device as a kindle, and i no longer have the kindle drivers, at this point don't even care if i have to recover the system i just want the data on it. and i checked dozens of other forums and threads for solutions none have helped......
My PC is Windows 7
My Kindle is a Kindle 7" HD
I do have a Fastboot cable
I Dont have the drivers for anything
I would like to simply retrieve the data on the device
ANY HELP, ANYYYY, WOULD BE APPECIATED! Thanks.
First go here and determine which model you have. (You keep refering to "kindle," but you posted in the Fire HD (4th gen) forum and fastboot cable doesn't work with Fire HD.) If you've got Fire HD, you're out of luck; contact Amazon for replacement. If you have 3rd gen, post in KFSOWI modding on G+. If 2nd gen, try here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd
I factory reset my kindle fire and I went through the setup and it started updating and when it was finished it went black. After I realized it was bricked I tried the unbrick tool but I couldn't get my kindle to stay connected to my computer for long enough to use it. Can anyone help me out?

I am running into the same issue. I had rooted the Fire 6 (4th gen) and it has SuperSU Installer on it still after I thought I had restored back to factory and this is preventing me from doing any updates. I also no longer have the recovery option (VolUp+Power), it just blinks and reboots so I don't even have TWRP. I tried following the restore process above using a Boot USB but the READER.SH does nothing. I read it was maybe the USB hardware in the computer so I've tried 5 different computers all with the same result, both with a regular USB cord and fastboot cord. READER.SH just does nothing and I have to CTRL+C out. I'd say try other computers to see if that works. Anyone have any idea why mine isn't working?

I know this is old, but so you have the all the drivers installed and showing up in your computer's device manager?
The unbrick process and iso posted do not work with the newer FireOS versions starting with FireOS 5.3.1. Ask me how I know besides that it is posted a the top of this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/development/unbrick-fire-hd-6-7-flashing-lollipop-t3405797
I have two bricked devices in my closet. Do not think there has been any movement on finding a way around it.
