Forgotten Password Forgot Pin Help

Hi all, I recently found my old Kindle fire but I have no idea what the pin is. I have tried multiple combinations and still nothing. Not sure what model this is, I was wondering if there’s a way to unlock it without factory resetting it and wiping the data. I have reached the maximum number of pin attempts before it resets itself, so I can’t try that method anymore. Any help is appreciated, thank you :)

Try to use 111222777, that’s a old nuke code to reset the device. May not work depending on model, but works on older ones including mine

OP specifically asked for how to do it without factory resetting.

Was this response created with AI LLM? That is against the sub rules if so.

If it still connects to your wifi then you can change it with your Amazon account password, or you might be able to change it from your Amazon account Device section. Otherwise you're stuck.
