I walked in one day and my kindle fire hd refused to turn on. I’ve made a visual inspection of the motherboard and battery nothing seems out of sorts. Is there a way to tell if the battery itself is the problem or if there is something else i can try. I am not terribly concerned about the fire itself, there is a good amount of data on the harddrive that i need to get off. I’d love to get the fire working again but the data is more important. Is there anyway that i can get the data out? or tell if the battery is working so that I don’t waste my money trying to fix it.
PART 3: ANOTHER REASON FOR KINDLE FIRE LOCK-UPS Probably the number one reason Kindle Fire (KF) devices lock-up is because the battery discharges. When using a wifi connection you should connect the KF to a power supply outlet or USB port on a PC computer, or use the KF only for a short period of time when away from a power source. When the battery runs down it will usually cause a lock-up. Simply connect the KF to a power supply source and recharge the device. It is best to turn off the device and let it charge. If it is locked up, you will need to hold the on-off button for 15-25 seconds to turn it off. A red light at the on-off button shows the battery is discharged. A green light means the battery is fully charged. It is a good idea to charge the battery for at least four hours before using it again without a connection to a power supply source. Always check to see that you are disconnected from the wifi when operating off the battery supply except for short periods of time, otherwise when the battery runs low the KF will more than likely lock-up.

Hi all - had the same issues discussed. Dead screen, would’t recharge, holding the power does nothing. However it seems to fix itself when I plugged it into the desktop PC and is now charging away from that. Give that a go before you stick knifes in it :-)
To unlock the Kindle device, the easiest and fast solutions is reset your Kindle device. Press and holding down the power button for 20 seconds or more. Then turn the device back on by hitting the power button again. If this doesn’t work the first time, you can try holding the button down for 30 seconds or more. Most of the time, this will be all you have to do to make the Kindle Fire work again.
I had a problem similar to yours but all I had to do was hold the power button down for about 15 seconds then let and start pressing it repeatedly and my kindle came back on
My fire device would not turn on after charging all night long. I did all the trouble shooting in this blog. Guess what made it work…….i hit it with my flat hand. Back in business LOL so funny! But im glad because it was a gift.
jonathan jones, the Kindle does not have a hard drive. It stores information on memory IC’s. the only way to get any information off it would be with an expensive NAND memory reader and the right software. Most likely not an easy DIY’er job. I would start with the battery. You can use a multimeter and see what power you have on it and if it charges by checking on the battery contacts with a multimeter while plugging it in.
try to hold the power button for 30
Put it on charge. Then after 5 mins or so hold the on button for 30 seconds or longer then it will turn on. Your welcome. However is this doesn’t work then your kindle fire needs to be fixed in the shop.
Hey, guys I actually found a solution for this error. https://www.errorsolutions.tech/error/ki… follow solutions No.2 it works perfectly for me.
I just tried the first thing that came up in Google search for Fire Tablet wont turn on. Hold down the power button for 20-30 seconds. Then try turning on like normal. It worked the first time. No need to disassemble.
I found the issue. The motherboard died
So we have noticed over time the solder joints on the USB charger are getting loose or disconnected. So a fix we found is to add flux to the solder joints then re heat the joints and in some cases we had to add new LEADED solder to make the connection work again. Its as if the power and ground pins are not connecting to the pads on the boards. Try this and if it works then like it and share it its seems to be a issue on all the Kindle Fire Tablets.
If you are sure that it is fully charged try holding the power button down for about 20 seconds or so, release it, then push it again and see if it comes back on.
My 3rd Generation Kindle Fire went dead. Won’t seem to charge or just has a black screen? I had two. Here’s what I did. I carefully slipped a sharp knife in the slit where the case splits and took the back off. I then slipped the connector for the battery out of its receptacle. I slid the metal knife edge across the metal contacts on the battery plug and point what matter does it make? This happened to both of mine exactly 30 days after the warranty ran out. This worked on my wife’s new Kindle also.
My kindle fire hdx 8.9 64gb 3rd gen just black screen froze and shut off while charging. (Battery was 59% charging), i have data i need to get off and all i was doing was watching YouTube video. It over 3 years old to and battery been fine. I did complete discharge yesterday but it charged back up to 100% overnight. Now it dead. Currently charging it on usb port overnight to see if that revives it. Please help.
Well hello and sorry for your complaint. I had the same problem too. Try to charge your tablet with it proper charger and let it sit if you don’t see the lightning bolt pop up then maybe your tablet battery in the back has worn out.
Had same issue. Battery flat , wouldn’t charge, adaptor ok as charged 2 x other items. Plugged into car charger 5-10 mins, started charging. Now charging normally on mains.
Similar issue but mine gets amazon logo for about 3 seconds then goes black again. And, There is no red or green light .
I tried all your ideas but nothing worked I tried plugging it in somewhere different. Literally nothing worked
Volume up button and power button…..press and hold at same time and it should reboot.
If no power and literally dead tablet I believe the motherboard dead and needs replacing
