Help, after a day or so of use, I rooted my kindle and installed google apps cause I couldn't install apps from the amazon apps store, i live abroad.
So, I was done modding my kindle, and after a day of regular use, my kindle began to shut down by itself and then it turns itself on and gets stuck in boot logo, I can manage to reboot it again using the normal boot command in kindle fire utility, but after 1 or 2 seconds of being on normally, its shuts itself down again and gets back to boot logo, any idea?
I would like to restore it to the original software (6.2.2) and try all over again if its possible, I can't send it back to amazon for warranty, I live outside the US so its not an option,
Please help!
Here is a video of what happens

I tought it was a driver issue cause whenever i tell my kindle to reboot into fastboot I can give the commands to reboot into normal again, but I cant seem to see it using fastboot devices, there are somethings I need to check before doing the push fbmode cause I dont quite get it yet, actually my plan is to get it back to stock somehow and then start from there.

You are in fastboot mode.
The following will cover the fastboot commands you need...

You will use those fastboot commands to install TWRP and then use TWRP to install FFF.

Ok, I've managed to install the drivers in the kf utility,
When i use this command "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" I get the reply "kindle" so I assume my kindle is booting in fastboot mode as you said, so it must mean I'm still on the stock bootloader if I'm not wrong ,
So, I think what I should do is either flash a stock rom or flash a new bootloader and new recovery using both of this commands, correct?
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader c:\kfu\restore\u-boot.bin
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery c:\kfu\restore\recovery.img
If i want to flash it back to stock should i should use:
fastboot -i 0x1949 flashall c:\kfu\restore\update-kindle-6.3.1_D01E_4107720.bin correct?
I ask cause I wanna be sure, dont wanna mess up even further, I must get now bootloaders and recoveries in .bin and .img extensions right?
I don't think that last one will work. I believe I tried it that way before and it didn't work.
You can flash the bootloader and recovery the way you have it there. Normally, I would suggest you get into recovery first and flash your bootloader there, but I think you said your /sdcard won't mount, so this will be preferable in your case.
While you are at it, flash TWRP 2.1.1 and FFF 1.4a. FFF 1.4a is distributed as a zip file. DO NOT FLASH THE ZIP FILE. I cannot stress that enough. Download the FFF zip file, check the md5 sum and make sure it matches what's on the OP. Then, you must unzip it and dig out the .bin file in there. I think it's in the cache folder if I remember correctly. Once you have both of those in place, you should be able to get your /sdcard partition fixed.... hopefully.
EDIT: I think I confused you with another guy... I think you should flash TWRP, boot into that and then flash FFF. Look at this page...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1638452
Under the "Installing a recovery and custom bootloader" section are the exact commands in the order you need to do them. As it shows in the section, TWRP uses the zip file to flash the bootloader, you don't need to unzip it if you are going to do it that way.

If you installed TWRP 2.1.1 and you are using "Reboot -> System" to restart your device, the device should boot into the system. If it looks like it's booting properly, but it still comes back to recovery, something is wrong with your system software or more likely your storage partitions. This is often the case when some partitions are not available and the system software wants them fixed. It will boot into recovery, so it can be fixed, and the recovery restarts the device again in normal mode. However, you've replaced that stock recovery with TWRP and that's where it sits because TWRP isn't designed to automatically fix anything and it doesn't restart on its own.
Boot into TWRP, and get parted's partition table information...
Code:
adb shell parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
... and paste it here.
Alternatively, you can download the Kindle Fire software update from Amazon, change the suffix to .zip, extract the contents of the zip file, get the recovery.img out of it, flash it in fastboot, and restart. That might fix whatever problem is causing the reboots into recovery. Make sure you have the FFF bootloader installed before you do that so you can flash TWRP back again if that doesn't help.

My kindle only reboots by itself after it goes into sleep mode. if it is powered on, it does not reboot.
When in sleep mode, it reboots by itself and ends up in the TWRP screen.

Guessing Kindle is trying to install update, but fails because you replaced stock recovery with TWRP.

Usually updating the stock ROM will do it, if you made backups of the partitions like the tutorials tell you to do you can simply reflash them in fastboot mode.

I told someone else to try updating to the latest amazon os using Amazon's manual update the other day to fix this but it for some reason didn't work... But if you download the latest amazon is and update it it should work, however if it doesn't and it boot loops, technically you can go into twrp and tell it to reboot to boot loader (fastboot) and pull the boot loader IMG and recovery IMG from Amazon's update zip file on your PC and flash them via fastboot. If you need me to elaborate any just ask.

do you know of any tutorials on this? i could not find anything and as u can see i dont know much about this stuff so it would be appreciated.
Thanks
Wanna mention ahead of time, i am not responsible if you hard brick your kindle by doing this, i dont like messing with the kindles bootloader unless i have to personally.
Ok follow the instruction on Amazon's Website for manually updating a kindle. This might either bootloop/go straight to recovery once you do this, if not your probably on stock unrooted without twrp or 2nd bootloader, usually you can tell pretty easily since the kindle logo would be blue if it wasn't stock, assuming that for some reason it either does bootloop/go straight to recovery or for some reason works but has twrp and second bootloader please read on.
Keep a copy of the update on your pc. Now this gets a bit more complicated because i realized the update is a bin file, but if i remember correctly it should just be a zip file, so either tell windows open with winrar or 7zip, winzip, etc, or try enabling file extensions in your folder options on windows, and changing the extension to .zip. Once you do that extract u-boot.bin and recovery.img from the recovery folder. Put your kindle into fastboot mode(hit reboot then bootloader in twrp). Now you need a copy of fastboot.exe, so use a utility like kindle fire first aid and remember to put the recovery.img and u-boot.bin into the folder with fastboot.exe. Open a command prompt and cd into the directory that the fastboot command is in (in kffa) and verify we have a connection to the kindles fastboot by running "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product"(if it hangs on waiting for device, open your task manager and update the driver for the device with a triangle next to it named jem with the drivers in my signature
.) Once that command can run successfully, run these three commands:
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader u-boot.bin
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
Now pray everything went well, because if your bootloader had a bad flash your going to have a hard brick. It should boot into stock os. Tada! I'm going to get soupemagnet to make sure i explained this correctly just to make sure i didn't miss something, you don't want to hard brick the kindle, that's a pain to even attempt to recover from without a major understanding of to solder and hookup an emmc to an sdcard reader.

Okay, let me stop you right there. There's no need to manually flash those images in fastboot and, as you are aware, it isn't the safest option.
To revert to stock (safely), download the appropriate software update for the device from Amazon (onto the device itself), rename it from update.bin to update.zip (very important), factory reset in recovery (extremely important), then install the update.zip in recovery.
Upon rebooting, there will no longer be a 2nd bootloader or custom recovery, and everything will have been reverted back to pure stock.
^^ what he said, I wasn't aware the amazon zip was compatible with twrp, it has files that a flashable zip tend to have but I never looked into it. Now I know something new for future reference. xD

did what you said but install failed so pushed cynagamod to it and installed now i am stuck on kindle logo cant do nothing not even boot to twrp.
Time for a fastboot mode and kffa... If you at some point installed the drivers for fastboot then this should go smoothly, if not you will have to keep your device manager open I. With does and update the unknown jem device that's detect to the drivers in my signature. Once you do manage to make sure that the jem device is detected and has its drivers installed turn the kindle off and unplug it, then on your PC run "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product", once it says waiting for device plug your kindle in. It should go into fastboot mode, once there use kindle fire first aid to restore the system partition.

lol i am so lost.
Basically you need to get a copy of kindle fire first aid from the 7" general section of the forum(yes I know it says 7" but its more liken all second generation kf's), open a command prompt as admin, and CD into the kindle fire first aid directory, run the command mentioned in my last post and plug the kindle in while its off. If it goes into fastboot mode then great, if not you have to install the fastboot mode drivers, you must open the device manager, and when you power on the kindle it should briefly show a jem device, you have to update its drivers to the ones in my signature before the device disappears. Once that is working run the command again. and do as previously mentioned.

Thank you so much for this solution. Although I get my 7HD to enter fastboot mode with cable - I can't get these other solutions to work.
In TWRP I REBOOT and see RECOVERY - but when I hit RECOVERY it just boots back to TWRP. Is that all I'm looking to do before going to INSTALL the .bin file (now renamed as .zip)???? thanks much...

I have read through this forum pretty thoroughly. I have tried to mess around with KFHD SRT and with KFFAide. With KFFAide it says it downloads the images necessary and then it hangs on waiting for device. The device is in fastboot, so I don't know why.
With KFHD SRT the last supported version was 8.1.4.
The only thing I did with this kindle is root it, but I want to go back to stock with a clean install. I downloaded the 8.4.6 bin but have no idea how to create a system.img. I tried doing an install from the internal storage but since it already has the same build, the kindle won't let me "upgrade my device"
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,

Have you tried copying the .bin to the root folder (the sdcard root, not the true root) then go to Settings -> About -> Device and click the 'Update Your Kindle' button?

I'm guessing either you don't have the drivers for fastboot installed or you didn't tell kffa no when it asked if u wanted to be put into fastboot. Check the device manager for a jem device with a yellow triangle next to it. If you find that while it is in fastboot mode, then download the drivers in my signature and extract them somewhere, then right click the device in the device manager and hit update drivers and point it to where my drivers are.

That won't work. Images have to be made special for a fastboot flash. You can do a system restore and then let an Amazon OTA update get you up to date and stock.
These two links will help you restore.

unzip/extract files,
copy AdbWinUsbApi.dll, AdbWinApi.dll, adb.exe, fastboot.exe, openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.1-blaze.img to adb folder.
do not have kindle connected yet.
open command prompt (start>all programs >accessories>command prompt)
in command prompt>change directory to adb
Code:
cd\adb
then
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.1-blaze.img
fastboot reboot
command prompt should say waiting for device
with kindle off, connect to pc via usb
when bootloader starts, commands should execute and kindle should reboot again
select reboot to recovery option
retry TWRP if still does not work try
try in command prompt with bootloader like last commands
Code:
fastboot oem format
fastboot reboot
try TWRP again
another option is the Kindle Fire Unbrick Utility V1.1
How about with kindle touch, pro?
How about with kindle touch, pro? I formatted my kindle touch when it connected to pc. After that, Kindle touch can not recieve ebooks that i copy to it. Then, i "reset device" and see "kindle user manual", but appear notice "...format disk..." when i connect to pc.
