My Kindle is never recognized by KFU . Here's what you need:
Android SDK
Working adb and fastboot
KFU
On windows 7 shift+right click in your KFU tools directory and click "open command window here"
Here are the commands:
adb devices (your device should be listed)
adb shell (make sure it shows up as root, there will be a #, if not su)
idme bootmode 0x4002
reboot
Then your device should be booted into fastboot mode
He could be having the same problem I had, no /system/bin/sh so the adb technique will not work. I had to make a factory cable, which got me into fastboot mode (but ROMS still are not applying right, that question is in another thread).

This is a shot in the dark, but have you checked that there is a .android directory under your user profile? Does it contain the adb_usb.ini configuration file? For some unknown reason the first time I tried, the install_drivers batch file didn't make the directory, so adb didn't initialize. Windows wouldn't let me make a new folder named .android so I had to go to the command prompt and make the directory myself using the old MS-DOS md command then copy the configuration file.
There is a section in Kindle Fire For Beginners that describes how to verify the drivers are loading. If you haven't seen it, it's worth the read.

Thanks for the KFFB plug. Just as an FYI, fastboot doesn't look at the adb_usb.ini file... adb is the only thing that looks at it.

I just updated my fastboot guide (the second link I gave you) with details on how to get the hardware IDs and identify whether or not you are in fastboot mode. Take a look again and see what your hardware IDs are. If that doesn't help you, post a more detailed description of what you are doing, what the device is doing, what errors you get, etc. The more details you can provide, the easier it will be for your helpers to determine what's happening. Look at the sticky post at the top of this section.
i know this is also a stupid question, but how do i issue the "fastboot oem format" command? i tried partitioning my kf but it failed....

my computer won't recognize the kindle fire in adb. I have the kf rooted. have firefirefire installed. after firefirefire was installed is when I lost adb. I have tried reinstalling the drivers numerous times to no avail. Any suggestions?
I have deleted all previous sdk, usb drivers or anything android related from computer to start from scatch. I did a factory reset on the kf. I currently have KFU v0.9.3 setup from instructions i followed on a youtube video titled (How to Root - Kindle Fire 6.2.2 BurritoRoot3) by Nat3Mil. sorry I would post a link but apparently I can't until I have 8 posts.

and check "adb_usb.ini" in the ".android" folder in your personal folder
it should include 0x1949 - i use to add 0x18d1 also in a new line
Sound like your Fire is in Fastboot. This happened to me last week. If you are able to load the drivers in manually, then you should be able to use the following commands:
adb shell su -c "idme bootmode 4000"
adb reboot

I have followed those steps in the link before and did it again but no difference. I don't have the adb_usb.ini file or the .android folder. only "Kindle ADB" and "kfu" folders both on the root of the c drive.

without the .android folder in your personal folder and the correct adb_usb.ini adb will never work !
create the .android folder and copy the file from c:\kfu\drivers\kindle to the .android folder
Thank you a million times! All is well again.
I had that folder and usb file before when it couldn't be recognized and forgot to put them back I guess.

I can't get this to work.
I've been trying to root/install jb on my kindle fire hd I bought today. I downlaoded the android sdk, installed the proper pacakges. Ran cmd and did "adb devices" no devices found. Enabled ADB on kindle fire, no devices found still. I've now downloaded the kfu and copied the file over just like you said (as well as installed the driver) and still to no avail.
I'm running Win7 64bit.
Any ideas?!?
You might be able to root the hd but the 1st gen. methods will not work and you will not be installing jelly bean at this point it`s not even possible. The hd forum can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1782
Hi guys! I'm new to the forum but not new to the IT world and not new to Linux or Android devices.
I'm stuck at the Kindle Fire screen after a failed attempt to root the device. Here's what I did. I'm hoping somebody can please help me. I did lots of Google searches to try to solve my issue and I can't seem to find the right solution.
So here's the background. I tried to root my KF by using this process http://www.pcworld.com/article/244303/how_to_root_your_kindle_fire.html on an Windows 7 VM. Then I found that SuperOneClick didn't work for KF6.3. So then I tried to KF Utility v.0.9.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399889
I selected the option to root the KF. After it went through the process and I got the Kindle Fire screen (which is sounds like the KF is in the fastboot process) I couldn't get anything to work at that point. I couldn't get the VM to even see the KF nor Ubuntu (which is the main OS of that laptop). So then I figured I bricked the device. So I followed these instructions http://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-unbrick-your-amazon-kindle-fire-46412/ but that won't work ecause the KF isn't being recognized by the OS. SO at that point, I couldn't get anything to work. So I rebooted the laptop (which is running Ubuntu 12) and the KF booted back up and it fired back up.
If I power off the KF and turn it back on, it gets stuck at the KF bootup screen.
So at that point I decided to throw Windows 7 on a different laptop that I have and see if I can get it to work. So I installed java & Android ADK for my OS (Windows 7). I installed the USB driver and updated the packages. So I go through these instructions first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568340 and I can't get the KF to be recognized as a device through adb. So I go back to the PC World instructions (linked above) and I follow steps through step 8. And I still can't get the KF to be displayed through adb. When I try to kill the adb server and then enter adb devices, I still can't get the KF to be recognized.
Oh and btw, Windows 7 does recognize the device as a "Kindle".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sparty On!
Use the following fastboot commands:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
or
adb shell idme bootmode 4000
adb this should be the way it works:

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, I tried it and I get an invalid usage error. -i isn't a valid option. I can use -w, -s, -p, or -c.
I also obtained fastboot from the CyanogenMod Wiki for Fastboot and copied the exe to the /android-sdk/platform-tools folder and tried it. I also followed the wiki and copied it and found that placing it in the /tools/ directory wouldn't work because the missing .dll file isin the platform-tools directory and not in the tools directory.
I'm having the same problem I think since windows doesn't recognize my kindle I can't install the drivers.

None of these commands will work without first being able to communicate with the device. In order to communicate with the device you need working drivers. And even though Windows says the drivers are installed, it doesn't mean they are working.
For some reason, the Kindle Fire Utility, along with Windows is a bad combination. You could try to uninstall and delete the current drivers then reinstall OR set up your Linux to run adb and fastboot commands from the terminal.
From they way it sounds, your device is already rooted. All you need to do at this point is change the bootmode. This can easily be done in Linux as long as you are in root. For more info on bootmodes and drivers, read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23747567
From a command prompt in windows CD over the the folder containing fast boot. One your command prompt is in that folder type fast boot devices. If it says that no devices found then you have a driver issue. What needs to be done next is open the folder containing kfu and run drivers.bat. this should install the appropriate drivers. Once this is done open kfu, select option one, then option 2. This should cause your fire to reboot in normal mode. IF that doesn't work you can push a boot.img to your fire in fast boot if for some reason you fouled up the system directory. Let me know if that does the trick first, if not I'll explain how to fastboot it back to a working condition.
Edit: in kfu select the option that says normal boot mode. Not sure if its option 2 or not. I'm not in front of my PC

I received mine with 6.3 and KFU wouldn't recognize it even after using the driver installation. BUT I found way around it. You need to install the drivers manually, and then KFU will work. Download the drivers, then extract the .android folder (create it if you don't have one) to
C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\.android open up your device manager, click on the Kindle and follow the UI to select the .android folder. Restart and use KFU. Enjoy!

Good news, I ran fast boot devices without an error. Bad news, it didn't list any devices. Just sent me to another blank command line.
When I initially ran install drivers.bat through FK Utility, it installed the drivers successfully, from what it said. I just ran it again and it said the drivers were installed successfully and the driver name is Google, Inc (WinUSB).
When I ran KF Utility (run.bat), it says that the ADB Status is offline. At this point, I would think that since ADB is offline, the Utility won't work? Stupid Windows!!!

I just ran kfu and I I was able to get it to do a normal boot. YAY!
Then I ran the .bat file in the KFU and I selected the permanent root. During the activating fastboot, it said that "Oops something went wrong...." it couldn't find the kindle. Then it installed twrp.img is missing and it downloaded successfully. So then I got the Notice, and it's installing TWRP and it's waiting for the device. I turned the Kindle off & on a few times to get the KFU to recognize the Kindle, and no luck. At least I was able to boot into the KF while it's still still waiting for the device. BUT....at this point during the TWRP install process, it's waiting for the device and not recognizing it.

I can't imagine why using vi would make any difference but you could try gedit to see if it works.
As for TWRP, you could install it manually (Windows). Make sure you have a connection with adb/fastboot and use KFU to set your device to fastboot mode. Keep in mind when you do this that you may have to go through the whole process of fixing your drivers again (blame Windows/KFU).
When you're in fastboot mode, hold the power button until the device shuts down.
Shift + right click the KFU folder that contains fastboot (tools) and open as a command
In the prompt that comes up, enter:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery /path/to/twrp2.1.img
When your prompt says "waiting for device", turn the device back on.
Make sure it's twrp 2.1 Version 2.0 is installed in a different manner and will most likely cause problems if installed with the "flash recovery" command.
Hey guys,
so I'm pretty new to the whole android scene and thought it would be a good idea to root my kindle fire. So, i went and downloaded the kindle fire utility and hit install permanent root with superuser.... but didnt put on twrp. oops. I was one of the few unfortunate ones whos rooting didnt work so smoothly. Now i have a kindle that is stuck on the stock start up screen indefinitely. When i plug it in it says windows does not recognize the device - just install the drivers, no big deal right? wrong. i installed the android sdk and all that jazz, and i installed the drivers packed with the kindle fire utility, and still my computer recognizes it as a universal serial bus controller.
every guide for unbricking either assumes you have twrp, or that the re installation of drivers will fix it. im at a complete and utter loss

Navigating to a directory is very easy.
Type cd and then put the file path after it.
Example:
cd c:\Program Files\ Adobe
Shift+ right click on the tools folder in kindle fire utility select open command window here.
My KF is bricked. It has TWRP on it but it has been wiped clean and my pc will not recognize it. It does in ADB, I keep seeing write the CODE: then stuff. I was told I could to where I needed to write this code by right clicking on the KFU Tools folder. I then get C:\android\Kindle Fire Utility>
Now that being said.. where do I begin to type the fastboot -i Ox1949 and so on. Sure do need some much appreciated help assistance.
Boot into TWRP and then do what Josepho1997 said. Then you can just flash the rom.
The "Rom.zip" would be the file path to wherever the rom is saved on your computer.
Where can I write the tag
Josepho1997 said:
So you just have no OS?
Boot into TWRP. Then Download and transfer the ROM via adb
Code:
adb push Rom.zip /sdcard
Then flash the ROM.

in cmd, adb is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Know how long it's been since I used cmd. Help me out please.
You need to open the cmd window when you are in the directory that contains the adb.exe file. Usually this is in C:/kfu/tools directory. The easiest way to do that is to use windows explorer and navigate to that directory then press shift and right click your mouse then select the option "open command window here". You should now be able to issue adb commands.

@reinhardrudi,
when you say "i cant really install ADB driver", do you mean you have installed the drivers, but Windows fails to detect your Kindle when plugged into your PC's USB port?
On your PC, please check if file "adb_usb.ini" is present in folder "C:\Users\<your username>\.android\" (please note the leading dot in ".android").
I should contain the line "0x1949".
If you don't have this file (or it does not contain above-mentioned line), just create it with a normal text editor, e.g. Notepad.
Again, it only needs to contain one single line:
0x1949
and must be located in folder
C:\Users\<your username>\.android\ (assuming you have not changed the location of the user profiles on your PC).
Hope this helps

OK, let's try it this way:
In your very first post of this thread you mentioned you had a "fastboot-cabel".
When you connect the Kindle to your PC via this cable, does it come up in fastboot mode? If it it does, it will clearly display "fastboot" on the Kindle's screen - so there's no mistaking any other condition with the fastboot mode.
With the Kindle in fastboot mode, please open a command prompt (aka DOS box) and enter "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" (without the quotation marks) and hit the [Enter/Return] key (assuming the directory where you have fastboot.exe and adb.exe residing is your current directory - if not cd into this directory first). Please post the result.
If your cable does not trigger the device to boot into fastboot, then it's most probably NOT a factory cable. Please note that the USB cable that comes with the Kindle by default is NOT a factory cable. A factory cable is specially wired to force the Kindle to fastboot mode.
Please run the test described above and come back here with the results. We'll then take it from there.

The picture quality is awful.. But- it looks like there is an exclamation point next to your otter2 device.
Is that correct?
If so, the drivers are not installed

hello again
after 2 hard weeks,and a lot of reading in this and other forums,many questions etc. i found a solution to install the driver correkly for my kindle
:laugh:
what did i have done??
after i had tested every cm 10.1 nigthly and the original 4.2.2 rom,every kindle USB- driver in this world--nothing,--no chance to install the kindle on 3 div. PC (win8+ win7) and 1virtual. Win7 Prof. x86
than i delete my cm10.1 inkl. gapps installation complete,and test the UNOFFICIAL TeamBAKED Black Bean 9 inkl. team baked's inverted gapps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2237167
and -its magic-after the first boot and plug-in in my PC, the driver install is correkt in the device manager. i see kindel-ADB device and the driver comes from amazon - :good: Yeeaah.
now i test the kindle first aid again, to go back to stock.rom with the "Option1" when im at home (after work)
i hope everything goes well!!!!!
thx at all people who helps
EDIT: everything OK.first stock rom. Than cm10.1
