Stuck on Diagnostic mode

Hi!

Looks like my Kindle Fire is stuck.
[Image violates Posting Guidelines for size - MODERATOR]

Only that screen is showing up when turning it ON. I've heard that i should delete "enable_diags" file from device but cant get it connected to my PC. The only thing that i've done further was installing libusb drivers so KFTT showed up on Device Manager. But still cant connect fully with my Kindle to have access to files inside of it.

Any ideas?
Best wishes,
Antol

ENABLE_DIAGS applies to e-ink Kindle devices, not Fire tablets which are Android based. Even for e-ink Kindles, that file wouldn't be on the device unless you put it there.

I don't know the cause of your problem, but it look like something wiped out the device's information about itself. "DSN" is device serial number and should not be all zeros.

I would call Amazon, but if it isn't still under warranty then it's probably toast.
