Screen shows only "Kindle Fire"

Screen shows only "Kindle Fire"

I cannot get my Kindle Fire to boot. When it is powered on, the screen shows the Kindle Fire logo, and that is it. I noticed that someone else had the same question, but the only answers were for a hard reset. I have tried that numerous times. I've also tried charging it fully and letting it discharge completely before recharging again, all with the same result. I called Amazon and they said, "Sorry, out of warranty, we can give you a discount on a new one." Is this fixable?

I just called Amazon and because my Kindle Fire which I paid $200 for a little over a year ago is not under warranty any more, they will not replace it. I am downgrading to a black and white read only Kindle and that will cost me $69. And the problem is that the connection on the Kindle is loose or doesn't connect correctly to the charger. Right now I'm trying to charge it with a magazine under the charger holding it in the "correct" position so it will stay in the charging mode (light orange). What a crock. I am not a happy customer....

Do NOT send your Kindle off to be repaired to anyone on here saying they can fix it. ! They will keep your kindle and take your money as well. Take it some where local where you live and have it repaired.

We repair these A LOT! The jack is unbalanced on the Main Board and is easily detached by normal wear and tear. Soldering the jack back on to the board is a little tricky but the real repair is getting the port sturdy to prevent the issue from re-occurring.
