When it's not plugged in to USB (doesn't show up in adb or fastboot), it turns off immediately, but when it is plugged in, it loads for a couple minutes showing this screen (later that bar fills up in red), but then just restarts. It's on a loop.
What can I do? It's not under warranty. Here is the link: s20.postimg.org/vdjipjprx/Image2725.jpg

Boot into TWRP... then follow my other directions.
From the op of KFU thread:
Known Tricks
•If you end up stuck at the yellow triangle, in KF Utility select Boot Normal, wait for it to say <waiting for device> and then press and hold the power button 20 seconds until the fire turns off, then when its off turn it back on. This sometimes happens, I have yet to find a clean solution
•If you end up stuck with a yellow triangle, do not EVER unplug it. Leave it plugged in. Check the windows drivers to make sure it isnt showing as "kindle" again. Fastboot is different and can cause this.
That fixed my issues in fastboot when I was trying to install TWRP the first time. If that doesn't work then [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20945694&postcount=506]check out this post[/URL]
I cannot boot into TWRP because the kindle keeps shutting off because it is dead. It isn't read by the computer.
Plug it into electrical outlet and leave it alone for three hours.
While waitin for three hours assess your problem and find the solution. Search.
Then execute solution after fire is charged.
Will it charge even when it keeps turning on and off?

Yes it will keep charging.
It did not charge... At least I don't think it did..
When you plug it in do you get a solid color or is the light flashing?
When it's plugged in to the wall and the light is solid you should perform a hard reset by holding power for 20 seconds. This will fully shut down your KF and it will accept the charge
If by flashing you mean turning on and off by itself than yes, it is flashing.
Please help..I'm losing it
Same problem here. It does not seem to charge when plugged into either wall or computer. The green light flashes on and off repeatedly and the recovery screen (yellow triangle) just comes on and off (it eventually just goes black while the green power light continues to turn on and off)
in order to help myself I have done a few things
1: KFU isnt working.
I updated the drivers through KFU
I tried to change bootmode to "normal" and it hung on "waiting for device" I tried hard reset here and nada
2: I tried booting into normal fastboot 4000 through command prompt and hung on "waiting for device" tried reset..nada
So just like the poster above I cannot get into TWRP as the computer never truly recognizes the KF. This all happened when my wife turned on my kf and didnt know what the TWRP was and hit the power button for recovery. It loaded back to the stock kindle set (I had been using CM7) and since then I've been eating FUBAR soup as it doesnt work
Seriously..im pulling my hair out here...any help? I'd try to return the kf to Amazon and save myself the pain but I think we know what would happen when they plug it in and see the flashing triangle...lol
1. Plug your kindle in to the wall for 3 hours like someone mentioned previously (it will charge) The issue with the device being in a boot loop has nothing to do with the kindle fire not charging, this is perfectly normal if you have modified system files and the system can't boot the Android OS. It is also normal to never get past the Yellow Triangle if for some reason that you have changed to FastBoot mode. (Some people may be misinformed thinking that FastBoot does what it sounds like it does (boot fast - not the case), that's how this usually happens)
2. After you know the kindle has been charged for at least 3 hours on a known working power outlet. Press and hold the power button on the kindle for 20 seconds or longer until the device powers down completely.
3. Press the Power button to turn the kindle fire back on, and be ready, as it comes back on press the power button as soon as the Yellow Triangle (firefirefire) logo first appears. Press it up to 5 times rapidly. If you get to TWRP then you can relax. - If you get to the Yellow Triangle and you have pressed the Power button a few times but it is still stuck in a boot loop before giving up try one more time to shut down completely and reboot while pressing Power button rapidly.. You want to be sure to do this before the Yellow Triangle screen goes dim .
4. When you are in TWRP you should be able to use KFU or ADB. You may want to change the boot mode if it is not already to "Normal" if you are having this problem with "Normal" then try to reflash the Kindle with a recovery image or a new ROM.
Hopefully you can at least get to TWRP by following this, so that you can at least flash the kindle with a different update.zip. Good Luck
Charged like you said...still no charge. Flashes on and off and when you pull the power cord goes to black like its dead and will not turn on at all whether you hold it down or just push it...
Never had a problem like this before, could always at least get it to turn on or off not a mix of both lol. Thanks for the help...any more ideas on how to get it where I can at least get it into recovery?

I'm experiencing the same thing.
I'm still confused... are you guys trying to charge it while it is in the boot loop?
Have you tried turning it off (holding down the power button for 20-30 seconds until the screen and the power button go dark and stay dark)? And then plugging it in? I wouldn't expect you to see the firefirefire triangle if the device is off while charging.
The other thing that you might want to look into is the factory cable. Supposedly charges the device and can access it w/o any battery power at all - if I understand that thread correctly.
The point is you can't turn it off, it's dead. If you try to put it on charger either through wall charger or USB, it blinks on and off repeatedly and the power button does nothing at all. The computer won't recognize (tried several diff ports and pcs)
I'm beginning to think the factory cable is my only option to bypass the bootloop and fix it, just hoping I wouldn't have to wait so long for a cable or drop 40 bucks on it. I guess that's what I get for messing something up!
I left it bootlooping for like 6 hours on the charger. Unplug it and you can't turn it on. Plug it in and it bootloops and you can't turn it off. So is this just bricked for good with no possible fix?

Sorry. I was obviously hoping I was misinterpreting.

You may want to PM SkOrPn, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23024666&postcount=108, seems like he has them for $15/$19 depending on length (if your location is accurate.)
Kindle fire turning on and off by itself and won't charge
The only way I know around that problem is unfortunately to remove the back cover and remove the battery with a good adjustable power supply apply 3.7V to the battery for a 30 to 60sec it will draw approx. 3.4A and over the 30 - 60sec the current draw by the battery will drop. Be very careful as you don’t want to blow it up. Put the battery back in and you should find the kindle will charge again. Good luck
Hmmm, I wonder if the factory cable would be an alternative as last I checked an adjustable power supply (if you're without one) can run 70-100 bucks which is half of the kindle itself, I'd almost just take my chances sending it back in to amazon. Thanks for the help though from someone who has had the problem
Today I picked up may Nexus 7 and noticed it will not turn on. I let it charge for an hour or so, but then when I tried to start it up, I saw just a black screen. The screen turns on (backlight turns on), but still just a black screen. I read something on the internet about pressing the power button for a full 30 seconds, so I tried that. This time, I got it to flash (for a fraction of a second) the word "Google", and then it was back to the black screen of nothing.
I've never rooted, never tried to do anything fancy with it. I've factory resetted it once after an update to the OS happened.
Is there anything I can do?
You sure it gets juice? Does your charger feel hot after charging some time?
I had this to once, but got it fixed by holding the power button...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Sounds like a charging /battery issue if the 30 sec power didnt work.Did you try a different charger?
Some people have reported weird issues like this that have been rectified by a prolonged charging.
Thanks
It acted strange, but it came back from the dead:
It said "google" for 10 seconds, then a few seconds of black screen, then another 10 seconds of "google", then it booted just enough to tell me that it was going to shut down because of low battery. I let it charge another hour and then it was fine!

Quirky little buggers aren't they? Mine did it once and not since.
I just goy my N7 today, plugged in the wall charger, and I'm stuck at black screen, I did the 30 secs hold power button but it's still and black screen. Also I tried this:
1. Plug-in your dead N7 to a wall charger. (Jump immediately to step 2.)
2. Immediately after plugging it in, press Volume Down and Power at the same time.
3. Once in the bootloader menu, use Volume Down until you see “Power Off Device.”
4. Choose that option with the Power button.
5. Once your device is off, unplug the charger and then plug it back into the device.
Still at black screen, any advice???
I'm sorry for posting in this old thread.

I just solved this, I opened my N7 to check the battery and it turns out it wasn't correctly connected... Just unplugged it and plug in again correctly to make it work!

Boom!
I was having the same problem. Plugged it into a power source, backlight would come on with a black screen. Got it to show the Google splash screen a few times, but it just wouldn't boot. Tried ADB, but it wouldn't even acknowledge the thing was connected to the PC. I tried a pile of stuffs. Then I read this post. I never thought to check if the thing was actually connected, it wasn't!
Fully functional device now. Thanks for the idea! :good:
Hi all,
My TPT this morning for some weird reason stopped turning on. I plugged it into my dock. When it's in the off state it shows the charging logo. But when I go and turn it on, the screen stays black with no Lenovo bootup logo. The red dot in the back of the tablet however, is on when I switch it on. I initially thought that the power drained but I've been charging it for an hour and it still doesn't boot up. Any suggestions? Thanks
Press the tiny button next to the SD-card and then try and start the TPT. You might be in bootloader.
Otherwise, maybe your display cable became disconnected inside. Easy to do or fix if you've opened it up.

Tried resetting, no dice.
Also I don't think its a display problem. Since when its off and I plug it into my dock the charging logo does show up for 5 seconds. Also, when I turn it on, there's no vibrate that the TPT usually does. I noticed that the red light only stays on for maybe 10 seconds then goes dim again

Okay so this is definitely weird. I just plugged it into my PC and via USB and it actually started up! But when I unplug it from my PC it acts the same as before... battery indicates a full charge in android though...
OPT took a blow to its back, now wont turn on w/o USB & Boot Loops when USB plugged
FML ... ok so my OnePlus Two (A2001) slipped out of my hand while I was using it and the area right under the camera took a hit (not too hard) to the side of a nearby table (Battery was at around 50% last time I checked). Now the bloody thing wont respond, UNLESS i have it plugged in.
While it is plugged in, It either boot loops, with the boot screen being off center (the Word Android is on the bottom left of the screen and the OnePlus logo is on the Center-Left of the Screen, OR it boot loops with the screen perfectly justified when +V and Power is pressed. I had the newest official oxygen 2.2.1 installed on it. At this point I can only get it into fastboot mode using +V and Power. When plugged in and left on it's own, it boot loops with occasional "Low Battery" (with charging light on) but then it reboots again (disabling charging light an charging)
I've had the original OnePlus usb drivers installed on my PC before but plugging it in does nothing. Ive tried the Qualicomm Driver + MSM8994 method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/oneplus-solution-hard-bricked-device-t3183449) with no avail. Installing the Drivers manually the OnePlus Two still shows up as "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"
I've also taken it apart to see if there's anything loose/broken. I dont see anything wrong with it. Ive also pryed the battery from the back and detached the battery connector from the motherboard. Then plugged it back in, but it still does everything described above.
Fastboot commands to not work as it just looks for device. Fastboot Continue does not work.
Im running out of ideas..... =( Anyone have any new ones?
Seems like the OnePlus Two doesn't respond well to impact. Mine slid off my desk a few times onto a wood floor and now won't respond at all.
Hi, I was trying to repair my friends T280 and I got the following problems on it:
1.) Entering download mode the text and the download logo appear normally but after a few minutes (or sometimes instantly) it completely disappears only remaining is the light blue background. Odin also stop and fail when it happens. Tried flashing it anyway but failed somewhere in the System.img before the logo disappeared. Sometimes the background changes colors.
2.) Charging it while turned off most of the time does not show the charging icon. Just a black screen with no backlight. But the battery is charging according to my USB tester. Icon appears sometimes but disappears after a few seconds.
3.) Sometimes reached the screen where you can see the model name but stops there and goes to black with no backlight shortly afterwards.
Is this a logic board problem?

Got 3 of these and haven't experienced any of these anomalies, so I guess you have a hardware issue.
