I rooted and installed an ICS ROM several months back on my Fire. One morning the wife brings it in and says my son got it stuck in some weird mode. Turns out it is stuck on the TWRP yellow triangle and does not seem to be able to get into recovery mode. I have done that several times before so I am pretty confident I am not messing that up. Just the power button never turns orange and eventually the device just turns off. My computer see the USB device but ADB does not. I did `android update adb` and then added '0x1949' to '~/.android/adb_usb.ini'. Do I have any options left or is it bricked?
Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this. Especially to any who can reply with suggestions.

ADB will not work because you're in fastboot mode. Use fastboot commands to install the new TWRP and change the bootmode.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img
fastboot oem idme bootmode 5001
Hold the power button to perform a hard shutdown and restart the device. You should then be able to launch recovery using the power button. If not, you'll have to flash the bootloader as well. If this is the case, be extremely careful you don't pull the USB cable during the flash or you will really brick your device.
Also, it is very important to know that the version of FFF you'll download comes in a .zip format to be flashed in recovery. Don not flash the .zip file directly to your bootloader partition. Instead, unzip it and find the "fff-u-boot_v1.4.bin" located in the cache folder and flash it.
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader /path/to/fff-u-boot_v1.4.bin
fastboot reboot
If you were able to access recovery just by reinstalling it with the first command, push the FFF1.4.zip file to your sdcard and flash it in recovery. Just remember not to wipe anything before installation. That will help you to fix your bootmode problems a lot easier in the future by holding the power button untill the boot options appear at the bottom.

Thank you! I am back in recovery!
I tried to root my phone and followed all steps until it asked to boot into the custom recovery and that only displayed a blackscreen and if I tap on the screen the phone vibrated. I cannot boot into bootloader as the phone just automatically tries to enter recovery with blackscreen.
Hold all buttons the phone boots normally and can use the phone as usual.
I've tried to use the adb and fastboot cmds to restore and factory reset but just reboots and tries to enter recovery with the blackscreen.
My device is htc_a51ul if that helps.
Thanks,
Phatzy
Tighten two volume buttons and the power button when you see a black screen and holding down the volume- and power button that would go to zagruzchik.Telefon must be connected to kompyuteru.Esli got to go to the boot loader, boot into download sistemu.Esli not work then you have forgiven stock rekaveri of loader. https://yadi.sk/d/nWnRAChBnEtxG
I think you have flashed a wrong recovery ,first thing to do now is flash stock recovery and whether if it is working fine if so then flash the proper version of twrp 2.8.7.0 is recommended and see if it works
I had the same issue when I first flashed twrp on lollipop but then I did the above and now everything is fine.
while its on the blackscreen only adb commands work. If i try fastboot commands its just waiting for device and phone dont respond. I cannot get into bootloader at all with volume keys or with adb command.
Many thanks for suggestions.
Ok I have now managed to get bootloader back and I can now enter the stock recovery but when I enter recovery it has a red triangle. Is there anyway to remove this?
Thanks.
since yesterday i was not able to enter recovery mode. If i press vol up+ power then i can enter bootloader. but when i choose recovery and press the power button, it just reboot the device and enter bootloader again. the device itself is working fine, but i can not ota update
Same
I finally got around to going through the root/bootloader/recovery/rom process, only to get stuck at this exact problem. Rooted and unlocked bootloader just fine, no issue flashing the recovery via fastboot until I actually try to load into recovery mode for the first time. Exact same experience, loads in to flash boot mode, reboots when I try to select recovery mode.
Someone help! I want CM13!
These are the facts.
phone wont boot up coz i guess its rom is FxxxED up,
recovery mode (volume up, home, power buttons) only shows the white screen with some straight lines across it.
Only download mode is accessible.
developer/debugging mode is disabled.
is there a way to copy files to it and install them?
adb and fastboot devices are empty..
Confirm the phone model number in download mode.
Download and flash the stock rom from sammobile.com.
Its very complicated. My T705's power button was damaged by water. And i flashed Stock MM rom with odin. It was fine after flashing, the tablet boot into the os properly, work very well in the os.
But then i want to wipe the cache and data after that, so i was using the code"adb reboot to recovery" to get into recovery mode because my power button was broken. (I thought it can be using home button to select in recovery mode)
But the nightmare is i can't select anything in recovery mode which requiring a power button. So i can't wipe the cache, also can't select the option to reboot my tablet...... I've tried to hold both the volume down and home key to go to the download mode menu, and select restart by holding volume down, but it go to recovery again even after removing the battery, i think it's because the adb command.
And the strangest thing is i can't use my volume up button in download mode menu, so sadly i can't flash the rom again,:crying: but the volume up is working well in recovery and in the os......
Is there anyway to prevent the tablet to boot into the recovery again? I'm quite sure it's not the problem when flashing MM rom, the problem should be the adb command makes my tablet boot into recovery until i change the boot setting in recovery mode.

If your power button doesn't work how do you turn the device on after removing the battery?
unified android toolkit has a reboot device option...

That would only work if you could actually use adb.

Holding vol down + home key can boot to the download mode menu.
But the device will automatically turn on after inserting the battery, no need to press any button, but the device only boot into recovery after i use the adb boot into recovery command.

If that's the case that means the power button is stuck on or you wouldn't be able to power on or boot to Download mode.
All you need to do is flash the stock firmware or twrp and it will reboot back to the OS.
Hopefully I've got your fix:
When you insert the battery your device boots up, if so, insert the battery and press the correct key combo while the splash screen from logo.bin is showing to boot into the download mode.
After that flash TWRP latest version with Odin. Then when your phone again boots to recovery, chose Reboot -> System to boot Android.

If the above isn't applicable and you can start Android somehow, I will download either FlashFire or MobileOdin to flash another recovery/ROM.
