I Rooted my KF almost a month ago. i used the KFU 9.5 and everything went fine but i didnt get the yellow traingle loader and superuser. so i run the rooting process again. but it got stuck on the second try until the batt run out. so i got stuck on the "kindle fire" loading screen. but i was able to use the Kindle unbrick utility to fix it. and run the root again this time it was a success but still no yellow traingle and superuser. so i side load the superuser. tried installing the TWRP and firefirefire with the KFU but there were errors. and still didnt have the yellow traingle so i cant access the recovery.
but the result was i had a rooted KF. i also run the KFU 9.5 on my brothers KF the process was a success. he got a yellow traingle but no superuser so i side load the superuser. I got tired of the kindle interface and i wanna load cynogenmod 7. but the problem is that all installers need the yellow triangle.
now what i did is that i use the new kfu 9.6 and tried to root my KF again but it was a fail, so i restored it to factory settings then root it again. it was somewhat success but still i dont have the yellow triangle and what i got was a kindle fire but with a BLUE texted "FIRE" it said press the power button for boot menu.
my choices are:
normal boot
recovery
reset boot mode
tried the "recovery" but all i got was a 4 sec "kindle fire" loading screen. that resets after the time. now what i have is a rooted KF restored to factory settings, with a BLUE kindle fire logo.
can you help me install cynogenmod 7 on my KF? and i think i messed up my loading/booting can i clean them so i'll have a fast loading KF.
thanks guys.
The blue Kindle Fire logo is the equivalent of the yellow triangle, only better.
Turn off your Kindle (not sleep)
Download TWRP 2.1 and place it in your KFU tools folder
Shift+Right click that same folder and select "Open command window here"
In the prompt, enter:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery exact-name-of-recovery.img
When you see "waiting for device", turn it back on
Then reboot and select recovery from the boot menu.
that work Great im now running gederom! thank you soo much!

I rooted (or at least I thought I did) and checked in a root file browser to see if I could change files. No luck. So I tried rerooting. Now my Kindle Fire is bricked and stuck at the boot logo. I also accidentaly uninstalled the Android ADB drivers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you try the 20 second hold

if you find something I posted helpful please thank me
If you used KFU, then you might be in luck. Hold you power button down for like 10-30 seconds. That should turn it off. Then, if you see a yellow triangle or a kindle fire symbol hold down the power button. If it is a yellow triangle hold down until the power button turns orange. If it is kindle fire with "fire" in blue hold down the power button until you enter boot mood menu. Next, select recovery (if it is Fire in Blue). If it was a yellow triangle then you would be in recovery after my second step. If you make it to recovery, select wipe, then select factory reset, After that is done reboot system. You should then be unbricked.
If you do not see the triangle or the "fire" in blue. Then you may have a problem. If this happens, go into KFU and install adb drivers. Then, plug in your KF(kindle fire should just be booted up how you normally would) and restart KFU. If it says adb status online, go into boot mode. And go into recovery. This will also get you into the recovery. If this works follow my previous steps about doing a factory reset.
Let me know if this worked.

I don't have access to a Vista/7 computer ATM. Any ideas? Oh and I don't have TWRP or any other recovery menus installed. They didn't install even though I had the .img file.

Alright, so take it you did not root with KFU. The only idea that comes to mind is, (asuming that you are on a Mac) run a virtual device of windows 7 or vista on you Mac. Use KFU to install drivers, and boot up you KF. Re-open KFU and see if says adb online. If so, attempt to flash twrp using FKU. This will bring you right into the recovery. The recovery might not even stick but you only need to get into it once.

All I did was flash TWRP, Them it booted normally. I don't know but whatever. And thanks for the help!
You welcome, Glad I could help.
First hi everybody !
I a french noob, so excuse my poor english and informatic vocabulary .
My kindle fire (bought in New York in decembre), and since few month i'm stock on the boot screen and reboot all the time (not on the yellow triangle, just on the kindle boot).
Indeed, after root by kindle step by step with cmd (on windows). After that, i wanted to install Google Market ...
However, i did a mistake when was necessary to chance the permissions settings and my kindle was stock.
One day (2 months ago), i find the solution in this forum and i be able to almost fix my problem with Kindle Fire Utility, i have been able to install TWRP but in the final step:fingers-crossed:, my kindle rebooted and was once again stock on the boot screen.
And now, there is an another problem : now my kindle is totally stock on the boot screen (no reboot) and when i plug on my pc, KFU write that the boot status is "unknown" and i can't root, or re-install TWRP or does anything on my Kindle... (and the "light" of the kindle is orange ...).:crying:
Someone can help me ? :fingers-crossed:I search on this forum and try everything since few months ...
I have Teamviewer if someone have the time to help a poor french noob :silly:
I'm awfully confused... stock on the boot screen? Do you mean you have the stock bootloader, or that the KF is stuck on the boot screen? Do you have FFF installed? If you are unsure, what does your boot screen look like?
Also, how is your KF reported in the device manager?
Excuse me Dasanko, I used the bad word. "Stuck on the boot screen" of course.
To answer your question, i did'nt install FFF (and i can't launch my Kindle in fastboot).
The logo on the boot screen is just "Kindle fire" in white and yellow.
And for the device manager it's write "Android Composite ADB Interface" (it's KFU driver)...
Ask me all question that you want
If you really don't have FFF installed, but TWRP is...
If you can ever get the ROM to boot, go with "adb reboot recovery" or "adb idme bootmode 5001".
If there's a chance you do have FFF installed (could be a yellow triangle, the words "kindle fire" with an android on them, or the words "kindle fire" with fire being coloured blue) - then see if your drivers are correctly installed and issue "fastboot getvar product", then plug the KF into the computer. From there you should be able to get things fixed.
So, just to be clear, what version of TWRP did you install? You said it was a few months ago, so there's a chance you could have installed 2.0, which did include an older FFF version with it (yellow triangle screen on startup).
If you can neither get back on the ROM or have any version of FFF installed, then your best course of action is to get a factory cable, which will force the KF into fastboot mode, from which you can work to fix the issues.
Be sure you double check the device manager while the KF's screen is stuck and plugged into the computer. It could be just getting stuck in fastboot mode.
Please help. im a noob and tried to root my kindle fire and it was stuck on yellow triangle. so i got a new kindle, and tried it again. now its stuck again. im a noob so please give me EASY instruction. or post a step by step video to help me. Please HELP!!!!!
The newest KFU doesn`t have a bootloader with a yellow triangle sounds like you used a much older version best update that. Your stuck in fastboot for your issue if you didnt break something else using a prehistoric version of KFU. You can use KFU to set your bootmode to normal if your computer will recognize it. Simply select option 1 then 1 again in KFU. You will find the manual instructions here from 64_hit_combo to reset your bootmode http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750250 .
Novice rooted Kindle Fire HELP!!!!
I tried to root my kindle fire, followed instructions from rootkindlefire.com. rebooted kindle before a successful finish and now I have the yellow triangle. Pressing power button to enter TWRP will not work. Tried reinstalling driver, windows wont let me even with the driver modified. I tried running fastboot. all i get is "waiting on device" I power down and back on, still yellow triangle. Please help.....:crying:
If it's a first gen. Kindle try the method in post 3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037513 . If you're using the latest version of kfu you should not have a yellow triangle rather you should have a white kindle blue fire logo that allows you to access recovery in the same fashion but with several quick pushes of the power button at this splash.
Hello, total noob here. Ok i rooted my kindle fire. rebooted and it started with kindle fire logo in blue color. Then I connect to my pc it showed it got connected.I put in new zip of cynogenmod jelly bean. All good rebooted with kindle fire logo orange color. No google apps, now i connect it to PC and it wont show kindle. So i downloaded the Gapps directly in kindle. rebooted for recovery but it rebooted to jelly bean. Blue kindle fire wont show up. I need to get into TWRP so that I can install Gaapps. trying for three days. read many posted. holding power button for 20 secs till it shuts down. then connecting usb to PC it restart but with orange fire logo. Added some lines 4000 or 4001 under tools menu in utility folder, run the cmd from the tools folder.... nothing changed. tried. RAN KFU again and it shows status offline, rooted no, and boot menu unkwon. Ran ADB straight shows waiting for device. So my question is how can I get back to recovery or blue logo where I can go and reset or reinstall or atleast install just Gaaps. tried install just random games APKs. It wont let it install. Please Help. Dont know much linux or DOS either.
after connecting to PC shows up as music device
It shows up in device manager under portable devices as amazon kindle fire. but it doesnt help
I see ADB STATUS - Online
ADB Rooted - No
Boot Status - Unknown.
Now anything i run it says error : device offline. Dont know what to do????/
I attempted to install Android on my Fire HD 9.8 following a Youtube video. I followed the steps, but when it came time to reboot into TWRP, it just keeps rebooting. It gets to the KindleFire orange logo, then black screen with a bit of back light, then reboots over and over. I've tried booting into recovery by holding power and up vol, but it just sits at the slightly back lit black screen after that. This is also the only time Windows can access the device via explorer. adb devices shows it, but says unauthorized. I have tried to get into fastboot, but it says waiting for devices and the kindle goes into reboot loop. I have installed the latest windows drivers for the kindle and I am using the newest adb and fastboot. When I hold the power and up vol and it sits at the back lit black screen, I can access it in windows explorer and see everything there so it can't be completely dead. Any help on getting it back up and running would be greatly appreciated.
