Hi,
I have a kindle fire that has cm-10 (downloadandroidrom.com) and gapps. I keep trying to flash it but the boot up screen with the triangles
just keeps going and going. It's been like 10 minutes.
I have tried this rom before and it works fine. Then, I had to reset the kindle (holding power for 20 seconds) and now it's not working.
PLEASE HELP!
Boot back into TWRP and flash the latest version of the ROM. The one on that site is quite old.

And then flash the latest version of GAPPS

OK...so I had a custom ROM installed and recovery and was tryiing to install another ROM to try out. However, I "wiped" the ROM and mistakenly tried to reboot (obviously without an OS) - Now I am stuck in the "booting" screen - Kindle Fire in Blue in the middle - How do I get out of this - A guide/step-by-step would be helpful-Thanks
Enter recovery transfer a new rom and gapps to your sdcard, wipe and flash.

yes so when the blue logo is up hold the power button and go into recovery mode, and flash a rom. if you dont have a rom on the kf you can go into twrp and use the mount feature to transfer a rom from your computer to your kf then flash it
Hi, first of all, sorry for my poor english
So i installed succesfully the root and twrp with the kindle fire utility, so i installed a custom ROM, but when i rebooted de KF, the triangle logo just disappeared and i could not get more in the twrp.
In a moment of madness, i tried to boot the twrp using goo manager, but when i rebooted the kindle fire was stuck at cyanogen mode, i am just desperate, please help me!!!!!!!!!!!
did you wipe fully before installing the rom? Go back (in kfu) and reinstall root ,fff ,twrp , this time wipe fully ,re install the rom , It will be long wait , be patient the cyangen wheel spins forever ,just wait it will load
I wanted to get 4.2.2 on my fire2, so I went throught the tutorials to root and install twrp recovery which worked great. I downloaded the CM10.1 sgt7 and gapps for the fire 2 in the dev section and proceeded to reboot into recovery. I wiped the system and flashed the rom and gaps, wiped cache/dalvik and hit reboot.
dreaded kindle fire boot loop. The only thing I can think is that the rom DL was corrupted. It really didn't take long to complete the flash in twrp, probably less than 10 seconds. I really should have checked the md5.
OK, so I get a fastboot cable online and it shows up today. I can't seem to locate a tutorial of how to restore with fastboot though... can someone point me to a link?
Thanks,

Can you get into recovery?
Always factory reset when flashing a ROM that is completely different from the one already installed, or you will run into a bootloop.
I was able to get it back. Been running 422 for a few months. I had a bad Roman do from what I can tell. I was not able to get to recovery without restoring with a fastboot cable.
I have an Amazon Kindle Fire running FFF 1.4a, TWRP 2.6.0.0 and CM10.
Trying to install the latest CM11 ROM, but when I flash it, the Kindle goes into and endless reboot cycle (It says "Booting" at the bottom, then reboots, and repeats).
So then I tried installing the latest TWRP using the Kindle Fire Utility (also tried with adb) and it appears my Kindle cannot reboot into fastboot mode to allow the upgrade to take place. When the Kindle receives the "reboot into fastboot" command, it reboots, but I just get the TWRP menu with "Normal" and "Recovery" choices.
Luckily I can flash my old ROM and it works fine. ButI would love to upgrade to CM11 if possible.
Is the latest TWRP (2.6.3.1 at the time of this writing) required to install CM11? The post for CM11 states the "latest TWRP" is required.
Thanks!

Yes the latest TWRP is required
Is the latest TWRP requirement also necessary is you're trying to install either of the newer HellFire 4.4.xx roms? I'm on 2.2.2.1, (TWRP), and can't seem to get it to work, just pops up an error every time. I had thought about upgrading TWRP, but had read that there were a lot of problems with it. So if I upgrade to the latest TWRP, should this sole my HellFire problem?
So, for some reason, I cannot get TWRP to update. I tried both GooManager and ROM Installer apps. They both try to install TWRP but are unable to get the device to reboot into fast mode. In fact GooManager claims that TWRP was installed successfully, but then the reboot fails. When I go back into TWRP, it is still the old version.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Thanks!
You need to flash the version that hashcode updated specifically for the Fire. Link below, flash like any other zip.
TWRP 2.6.3.1 by Hashcode
It will still say 2.6.3.0 but it is updated and will work with cm11 ROMs

That did the trick. Thanks!
Hi,
I had freedom book 8.4.3, twrp 2.6.3.1 and PAC-man 4.3.Build-1_20131030-162108.
I just tried to upgrade to PAC-man 4.4 nightly-20140927.
The first step is to upgrade to freedom book 8.4.6 and TWRP 2.7.0.0. I used fireflash, put both them in, and choose install scripts (first option). Then reboot.
Now it's stuck withe the blue Kindle Fire logo.
I can get into TWRP recovery. But not sure what I should do next. Can I check if freedom boot is installed correctly? Should I continue to flash the new PAC-man?
Thanks
