Although not recommended, if your Fire is rooted, you can enter fastboot mode without a fastboot cable. Using a fastboot cable covers you against most cases of bricking your device. Not using one increases the likelihood.

Please could any testers report back with results, and which model they have (pictures of it running TWRP would be nice). If you have any problems, also include your entire terminal session and any errors TWRP gives when flashing. You shan't recieve help otherwise. If you are inexperienced, please wait for other testers to try this method.



Please refrain from mirroring any of the files, just link back to this post.



ROM Developers: you need to add boot.img from the files to the beginning of your ROM's boot.img
