Kindle Fire Stuck on Kindle Fire Boot Screen

So I was using KFU and while trying to complete the permanent root option my computer frooze and I was forced to restart it manually. Upon restarting the computer my Kindle Fire is now stuck on the Kindle Fire boot screen. If I plug the KF into my computer while it is turned off it begins to install the ADB driver software but as soon as it turns on it stops working and after I unplug the device and replug it back in it says device cannot be recognized. My KF does not have TWRP and it not rooted so is there ANYTHING I can do to unbrick it?
Thanks,
Zach

You can make a Factory cable to install twrp when your kf is bricking. After then you can easy to flash new Rom.

Failed attempt at rooting kindle, flashing screen not recognized by device manager.

I've attempted to root my kindle fire with the kindle fire utility and it wasn't 100% successful.
Im stuck on the kindle fire screen where it's booting up and it's on an endless cycle whether
plugged into the computer, or charging through the outlet. It's also completely unrecognized
when I do plug it into my laptop. Any help would be greatly appreciated to unbrick it.
Important: When the battery wasn't dead it just stayed at the kindle fire and recognized.
But using Kindle Fire Utility and a few other unbricking programs could not find the device.

uh yeah a usb drive, pedrive universal usb creator and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1850038

I had a similar experience today rooting my friends kindle fire... The kf utility kept giving me a error, something about removing a root check. And it just kept booting into recovery so on boot up where twrp gives you the 3 options... Normal boot, recovery, or change bootmode I just selected change bootmode and it booted right on up and worked fine...root is good and alls was well every since... Not saying this will solve your problem but just figured I'd share incase... Goodluck!

Here is what I did to fix mine
Hello,
First things first, did you have ADB installed correctly?
I had the same issue that you are having now and I was freaking out.
I was sure my kindle was bricked and my wife was going to be pizzed at me.
After about 2 hours of searching the forums, I found out that getting stuck at the kindle logo screen is pretty common.
When you are stuck at this screen you are stuck in "fast boot"
Here is what I did to fix mine.
Mine was having the exact same issue as yours.
I could not get my PC to recognize my kindle at all and I was stuck at the logo screen.
1. Unplug kindle from PC
2. Hold down power button for 30 seconds until it powers off
3. Plug kindle into PC and power it on
4. More than likely PC will still not recognize it
5. Open Kindle Fire Utility program and choose Option 1 for boot menu
6. Then press 1 again to tell kindle to boot normally and press enter
7. The KFU should say something like "kindle is being told to boot normally"
8. Once kindle reboots, you should be good to go
9. PC should recognize kindle now
I would say once this is done, uninstall your drivers for kindle and reboot your PC
Once PC is back up, reinstall the ADB drivers and try KFU again.
As a side note, ADB would not work on my PC which is running XP
I was able to use KFU on my wife's PC which is running windows 7 and I know have root access.
I am currently running JandyCane on my kindle

All I am left with is "Waiting for device" in kindle fire utility..

try this

OK, what happened when you plugged it back into your PC did it recognize it?
Can you uninstall the drivers for it and then reinstall the drivers for it?
What OS are you running?

I don't use Windows so I couldn't say for sure whether this works or not, but it's worth a try.

Rooted Kindle Fire Bricked

Yesterday I wanted to connect my rooted Kindle Fire to my computer to sync books onto. I would connect it with a micro USB and the notification would come up to connect the kindle to my computer and I did as i always have. Only this time the kindle said it was connected but my computer shows no external devices in Computer except in the bottom right an option to Safely Remove USB Device is still their while my computer does not recognize it. After restarting the Kindle and my computer multiple times i tried using several different micro USB cords. After giving up I decided to factory reset it in the Kindle setting. It reset and started to reboot and it froze on the Orange and white Kindle Fire logo after the blue and white bootmenu. My Kindle Version is 6.3.1 and TWRP is 2.1.1. Every time i try to open normal boot mode and reset boot mode it would freeze and the only thing that is working is Recovery mode. I figured that something went wrong so i tried to wipe the system from TWRP and reboot it but the same thing happens. After searching for an answer i came here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1977311 I read it and tried to mount my Kindle as a usb device but it still will not show up on my computer. So now i am left with a bricked Kindle Fire and can't connect it to my computer to try and fix it. If anyone can help PLEASE!!!! respond as soon as possible!

Reinstall drivers from kfu.
Then try mounting USB through twrp again.
It also appears that the computer recognizes the kindle but you can't see it in computer? Go to the device manager on your computer, and see what your kindle is recognized as.
Even if you can't get your computer to fully recognize it as a mass storage device, try to push through the steps in kfu. If kfu says " waiting for device" restart the kindle.

I know its too late now but never ever do a factory reset from settings if you are rooted .sounds to me like u have a soft brick and should be able to get it back especially if you can still get into twrp you also need to make sure its a first gen kindle and not a second gen. The second gen kindles have locked bootloaders and have to be rooted differently than a first gen

Luckily you have FFF installed (blue & white KF logo). The orange & white logo is the stock boot animation. Typically this would be a big problem, but you have FFF and access to recovery so all is well.
You need to download a ROM and get it to your sdcard so you can flash it in recovery. If you want to keep using stock, I'd suggest using MoDaCo rather than attempting to revert to stock as that would only compound your problems.
You have a couple options but considering you can't get your sdcard mounted to USB, you may be looking at bigger problems. Try to "adb push" the ROM to your sdcard. If for some reason when you navigate to the sdcard in recovery, you only see a single TWRP folder and nothing else, you'll have to reformat...maybe even repartition (easier than it seems).

[Q] Kindle Fire Root Gone Very Very Wrong

This is my second time rooting my Gen1 Kindle Fire. (The first time was very successful but stupid me, I went back to factory settings for no good reason).
From KF's updated software (6.3.2) I used Kindle Fire Utility 0.9.9, to install TWRP 2.6 and other google apps. I loaded TWRP and cleared cache etc. I then installed the new CM 10.1 SGT 7 rom. When i rebooted the KF, i didnt get the option to boot into twrp. What happens now is, it shows the orange Kindle Fire boot screen, and then continues to the CM10.1 boot screen. I may have installed CM10 over the KF software somehow. Now, my PC recognizes it as a Kindle Fire when I plug in the USB but there's an error in the device manager. Basically, KFU doesn't recognize it's a Kindle anymore. When I try to reboot it in recovery mode, it just does a regular reboot. Nothing about my KF looks like there's twrp installed in the background. I can't access it no matter what.
I tried sideloading Google Play and installing the TWRP Manager app but that doesn't do anything at all. I feel like my KF is going to be stuck like this forever. Any way to hard reset everything without TWRP? I have the proper "update.zip" file on the sdcard but I can't access any way to Wipe it and Install it.
Just so you know, the kindle isn't bricked it just seems like it's permanently stuck the way it is and my PC won't recognize its harddrive via USB.
Any suggestions?

Still no replies huh? Damn.
So when I turn on my kindle fire, the orange Kindle Fire logo shows up for a few seconds THEN the CyanogenMod boot screen comes up. I never get the option to boot into TWRP.
When I plug my KF into my PC, the Kindle Fire drivers get an error so i change it into an Android ADB Composite device. It still won't recognized the device properly. When I open up the console and try "adb devices" nothing shows as connected. I've installed the SDK and changed the files but it's the same thing. All that to say, the KFU no longer recognizes when the KF is plugged in.

[Q] 1st Gen Kindle Fire will not load TWRP or FFF

I have a 1st Gen Kindle Fire with 6.3.3. I wanted to root the Fire so loaded Kindle Fire Utility (KFU) and Safeboot to my windows 8.1 computer and unzipped both to my Desktop. I set computer to use unsigned Drivers and loaded the drivers from KFU (0.9.9), then I rooted the Kindle with Safeboot. I went back to KFU and loaded the Google Extras so I would have Goodgle Play. SU was loaded on my Kindle when I rooted it. All worked great, and still does. After a couple of days I thought I would load CM11. I am a Samsung guy with an S4 running 4.4.2 so it seemed like a good idea.
When I went back to KFU neither FFF nor TWRP would load. KFU run.bat status showed ADB Status as OFFLINE and Boot Status as UNKNOWN. When trying to load the fff process stops at "waiting on device". Device Manager shows Android Phone with Android ABD Interface.
Also my Kindle DOES NOT show up in Windows Explorer.
I have stripped my USB Kindle drivers off of my computer, plugged in my Kindle and the Android Phone in Device Manager shows Composite ADB Interface. My Kindle shows up and will connect in Windows Explorer and I can access all of the files with USB cable. I have tried two different good USB cables, and all 4 USB ports on my computer. All are the same result.
I do not know what happened between rooting my Kindle and adding some stuff to now when I can not access my Kindle with USB cable using KFU Drivers. I did M5 check sums at the beginning an all was well.
Have I missed a menu item in SU on my Kindle? Do you have any other suggestions?
