You need a factory cable.

You can make one yourself with a little skill and/or ingenuity, or you can check with @SkOrPn (I believe he ships to all over the world).

Since I already see this coming, I'll go ahead tell you where you went wrong and how to avoid it in the future.
First off, there's really no need to "root" your Kindle Fire. The steps required to root the Kindle Fire involve installing custom recovery (TWRP in this case) to gain temporary root permissions so you can push Superuser.apk and the SU binary. However, all custom ROMs come pre-rooted, so rooting beforehand is unnecessarily redundant. Even if you wanted to keep the stock OS, there is a stock based ROM called MoDaCo that will give you what you want while saving you pretty much all the work of having to do whatever you wanted to do with a rooted stock device anyway.
Second, with custom recovery already installed, the only reason to install the 6.3.x software update from Amazon, is to revert the device to 100% stock (i.e. no root, no recovery, no custom bootloader). Where you failed is in attempting to install the update.zip without first doing a factory reset in recovery. The resulting problem will leave you with a device that has no working shell, and therefore no ability to change bootmodes or install custom recovery again.
The factory cable (mentioned earlier) puts the device in fastboot mode where you can reinstall custom recovery, custom bootloader, and change bootmodes using fastboot commands (or some script based utility), then you can use custom recovery to properly install a ROM of your choice (remembering to factory reset). It should also be noted, that you should never wipe anything in custom recovery until you have successfully used it to create a backup. Be sure to save your system partition at the very minimum, and you can always go back to delete it afterwards.

[Q] Need to get back to stock, no TWRP or recovery.

I'd like to preface this by saying I read the FAQ and did some searching here, but couldn't spot anything that sounded like my problem. I've half got an idea of what to do, but I'm quite confused and feel like some stuff needs clarifying. I apologize if this is more common than I realize, cause if it is I'm sure y'all are sick of answering questions like this.

I got a used Kindle Fire from a friend that came with CM10 on it. I wanted to use it for reading, but the Kindle android app was recently broken by Amazon so I reluctantly reverted it back to stock (I really liked having a tablet, but I've got a phone for that stuff and I needed an e-reader). The very next day they fixed the app so I decided I should load CM10 back onto the Kindle. Now, I flashed CM10 onto my phone last year and it was a painless process so I figured it'd be the same here. Somehow in the process I completely messed things up.
From stock FireOS, I used Kindle Fire Utility to flash TWRP on my Kindle, then from there installed CM10 again. What I didn't know, was that CM no longer comes with gApps preloaded. I had no clue, as when I flashed it onto my phone it had all the gApps on there. So I google it and find out I need to flash gApps on there. Here's the problem: I can't boot this thing into recovery. Somehow TWRP was lost in the process. I enabled developer options in the settings, then enabled the option to choose reboot into recovery in the power menu but when I choose it, it just reboots into CM10 again. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to revert back to stock or flash gApps in if I can't get to TWRP again.
It's clear this has gotten way over my head.
Summary:
* Have a kindle w/ fresh install of CM10 on it.
* No gApps and can't boot into recovery.
* I think TWRP might be gone somehow.
* I want to either return to stock or get TWRP back safely and gApps flashed on here.

You need to boot back into Kindle Fire Utility and install the boot loader FireFireFire to boot into recovery.

I can't seem to get KFU to recognize my plugged in Kindle. IIRC when I first used KFU, when it recognized the Kindle it displayed "ADB Status: Online" and "Boot Status: 4000". Now it's ADB Offline / Boot Unknown.

I've been told elsewhere that I need to locate a stock recovery image and load it up using terminal emulator since it appears my recovery was broken. Where might I find one for my Kindle? I perused the various stickied threads / guides around here but did not see one.
e: Would it be against the rules re: buying/selling if I offered whoever helps me get this fixed $10? Haha.

help my firetv stuck in boot loop

first timer here,
so I had my fire tv for a week it was rootable so I had it rooted and running on 51.1.4.1_514013920
fixed, for some reason i decide to install boot menu, so I could just update once the 51.1.4.2 comes out
and now it would not boot kernel. every time i try it just loops back I could still boot in to recovery
but i already have the rom removed from the device
I just wanna ask if there's anyway i could load the rom back into the firetv with recovery mode
and install it from there? Or could i remove the boot menu in anyway?
thank you so much for your help

If you can boot in recovery install 51.1.4.0_514006420-rooted+updated, this is the last firmware that does not required a boot menu. As far as I know 51.1.4.1 requires it so not sure how did you manage to run this rev without the boot menu. Let me guess, did you try installing boot menu using Firetv Utility s/w? After reverting back to 51.1.4.0 follow the guide from AFTnews and install boot menu manual sending one commend at the time.

Thank you for the reply
But how do I install the frimware in recovery?
Because u had it deleted from the firetv
Is there any way I could load it back in the within recovery?

I've always used adb push but if that's not an option (because you can't connect) I'm pretty sure you can copy the update to a usb drive then insert in aftv and get it from there. Actually I've read that's the preferred method for lots of people.
But it doesn't hurt to re-read Rbox's threads and/or aftvnews guides.

So I could just plug a USB drive in there and it would work?!
Thank you so much I will give it a try tonight

alright this is what happened I finial took care of this boot loop thing
the reason is i install boot menu twice so once the first boot menu try
to boot into kernel it goes to the second boot menu and that's how the
boot loop started
luckily i could still get into recovery so from there I tried everything
finally i find the think called advanced putty
from there I was able to load 5140 and removed both menus
reroot busybox did everything and now got a fire tv fully working
rooted and all good
Thank everybody for helping out
good luck

Unable fo factory reset or boot into CWM

HI Guys,
I need some help, i cant peform a factory reset or boot into CWM, i was not able to reboot into CWM after the first installation. I rooted my AFTV these are the steps.
1) block updates on router.
2) fire tv running stock version 51.1.0.1
3) rooted fire tv (installed towelroot, supersu and busybox)
4) disable updates via adb on the fire tv
5) partially unlock boot loader
6) install CWM 6.0.5.1.4a (yes i granted su permission)
At this point fire tv rebooted but it did not bring CWM instead it went to straight to normal amazon boot. I tried alt+printscn approach but didn't work. When i try to get into cwm via adb command "adb reboot recovery" it will reboot and for a split sec i see blue screen and but then it boots up in normal amazon menu.
So i decided to do factory rest and start over.....problem is it is not really resetting the box, it takes me to the initial amazon sign in screen, i enter my login info and bang into main menu and all my apps that was there before are still installed.
Good news is i can still adb to the box and have root access.
any suggestion who to fix this?
I am still running on stock version 51.1.0.1 and i have not installed rbox boot menu. Also, i have done rooted 6 boxes so i am fairly familiar with the process and steps to follow.
Thank you

I also tried to upgraded but after the zip file was adb to the box fire tv did reboot but didn't go thru the installation process.
Any other suggestion guys please? I hate to return this box since it has root since it is getting harder and harder to find AFTV which has root able firmware?
I have been trying to get into CWM via "Alt+print Scrn + i" for few days now but without any luck i have tried this with wired and wireless keyboard, I hold these 3 keys simultaneously as soon as i see the white amazon logo and again when i see the colorful amazon log. Am i doing something?
However, when i do manage it get into CWM. What should i do? Should i select wipe data/Factory reset option? Will this take my AFTV to the way it came from amazon? I am still running amazon stock version 51.1.0.1 and fully rooted with Super su and busybox installed.
Thank you

You need to get in CWM to upgrade to a pre-rooted image.
Have you tried to downgrade (reverse) to factory as per above link? That should work without no issues, should bring your box back to stock and you can start from zero again. I done it numerous times however you need to read carefully and follow the guide step by step sending all the commands one by one in ADB

I tried to revert it back to stock following aftvnews guide step by step, read it over and over before actually doing it but on the final steps, AFTV will reboot but does not install the actual files.
i also rooted another box last night and everything went fine so i am not sure whats up with this box.
Thanks

[Q] Help with bootloop on unknown gen 8.9" Fire

Hi, I was given a kindle fire 8.9" stuck on bootloop.
After googling a bit, I need help with:
A) How do I figure out which generation this device is? Is there a picture gallery somewhere or something?
B) Is there a way I can get out of bootloop without getting a fastboot cable? (It's probably running the most current firmware as of January '15, but not sure).
C) Are there different procedures for bootloading depending on what Gen this is?
D) Is wiping with a bootloader as risky (bricking wise) as cracking and if so, can/should I just skip that part and go straight to putting a custom ROM on it?

attach some photos of the tablet... the 8.9 don't need a fastboot cable and it will not work with it... all you need is some drivers (unsigned) to make windows detect it properly and fastboot to work, I will send you some details later if you are still stuck... it's very easy to get out of your situation... and flash TWRP and any custom ROM or the original Amazon OS ROM.

Hey thanks man. Here are the photos.
I'm extremely new to this. If you could explain what I can do to fix the bootloop and explain the benefits of the different custom ROMs or link me to a guide explaining them I would appreciate it.

I'm not sure what your device is because I always have a case on but you could just as easily measure it with a ruler.
If It is an 8.9, try my tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/kin...help/kindle-fire-hd-8-9-bootloop-fix-t3137732
No fastboot cable needed and yes, different devices will need different files.
