I think I finally bricked my device. I'm guilty. Just want to keep track of everything I did and share how it's bricked.
1. Everything starts because the 4g LTE stopped working. The device starts to give me "Invalid SIM" message no matter how I try. Same message with either T-mobile sim card or the stock AT&T sim card. At this time, the device is on TWRP 2.8.1.0 with Thor Gapps Rom ( 13.3.2.4 ).
2. Thinking it might be a ROM issue, I restored 13.3.2.3.2. Same error message: Invalid SIM.
3. Thinking to restore everything stock before returning it to amazon, I flash stock recovery.img to overwrite TWRP and restored 13.3.2.6 backed-up with safestrap. System starts up but has some issue: it always goes back to selecting language page.
4. Flashed update-kindle-13.4.5.2_user_452004120-twrp.zip to stock slot with safestrap in hope of fixing everything. Now system stalls at the white "Kindle fire" screen.
I know that zip is for twrp, but I thought twrp can take backup made with safestrap, why not the other way around?! Well, I'm unlucky this time. One shall never touch stock slot with safestrap. I think I should have used the official update-kindle-13.4.5.2_user_452004220.bin and update through Device-update menu. Oh well.
Any way I can still play with this device before it set off for amazon?
