Kindle Fire HD 8.9": kindle 8.9 doesn't turn on

Fri, 10 Apr 2020 16:05:48 -0700

Kindle 8.9 is charged but it doesn't start completely. I get the Kindle fire screen which goes away in about 30 seconds. The screen glows but no swipe screen appears. I can shut it off with the power key. Is it the Lcd or something else?

Amazon Fire HD 8: (SX034QT) How the heck does the motherboard come out of this thing?

Sat, 04 May 2019 10:06:36 -0700

Got the digitizer off and the back off. I need to remove the mobo for cleaning. I found and removed four screws and the camera but I cannot get the motherboard out. It feels like there’s another screw or perhaps some adhesive but I’m already putting more pressure on the mobo than I’m comfortable with and it’s not budging at all. The top-right side (as seen in the pic below) lifts up off the frame about a centimeter, but the top-left side lifts barely a millimeter. What’s the secret?

Amazon Fire HD 8: Where can I get a Amazon Fire HD 8 screen replacement?

Mon, 14 Aug 2017 04:57:19 -0700

The guide seems to be sufficient for replacing the screen. But where do I get one? I asked the amazon.de support already, but it seems Amazon itself doesn't provide any replacement pieces for the Amazon Fire HD8.

Kindle Fire: Kindle Fire battery maker?

Tue, 01 Aug 2017 15:43:37 -0700

Hi,

Thanks for the teardown article that was really helpful. Just out of curiosity, do you guys know who made the battery? Possibly Samsung SDI or LG Chem?

Thanks!

Thanks for the answer. I just realized that the tear-down photo actually had a company name on the battery right in front of the product number - ATL (Amperex Technology Limited). I wonder if they used their own cell or only did the packaging.

I have a 2013 Kindle Fire HD 7" with a damaged USB/Charging port. It seems one of the five connection "teeth" inside the port was broken when the USB cable was forced into it upside down accidentally. I can't solder a new port into place myself. Can you replace it, and how much would you charge?

Kindle 3: Screen saver-part disappeared,part covered with lines

Mon, 14 Sep 2015 21:14:10 -0700

Yesterday l had no problems, but, when opened cover today, l have discovered that my screen saver (lady's face)partially disappeared, other part is covered with horizontal and vertical lines, like some kind of virus. Also, 'switch' button doesn't work - window for the pasword doesn't appear. However, when moving 'switch' button-phrase 'Slide and release the power swich to wake'- but nothing happens when doing so.
