Upgrade TWRP to 2.3 - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Right now I'm using TWRP version 2.1.1, should I upgrade to the last 2.3?
How can I do it?
The Kindle Fire Utility uses a old version, I don't know how to install the new one with it.
Thanks

The newest twrp has some reported touch screen issues. I am waiting before upgrading.

Not much call to. I'd wait on 2.3.1 or so, given the touch issues.

Thank you for the info guys.
But is there any motive to upgrade from 2.1.1 to the last one, I mean, does it make it better?
Thanks

Rooted ROM via update.zip?

Is it possible to install the rooted 2.2 ROM via the update.zip method or do I need to use Unrevoked/NAND Unlock and then install the rooted 2.2?
Also, since I have already installed the 2.2 "official" leaked version, is it even possible to use Unrevoked now?
Sorry for the noob questions but, I am a noob at this stuff.

If you already installed the semi-official 2.2, you are stuck for the moment, there is no way to root that version and to my understanding, no way to go back to an earlier rootable version.

Thank you for the quick reply. My only issue is that my 4G isn't working after the update. I did try to apply it twice to see if that would help, but it didn't. After running it the second time, the phone did seem to run smoother.
Maybe I will do a full wipe and reapply the update. I have MyBackup Pro so, maybe that with allow me to wipe and restore a little quicker.

[Q] Rooted Fire stuck at animated logo boot screen.

Well, finally decided to make a thread after hours of searching.
I've got a rooted kindle fire, and it's been working fine for the past month. Out of the blue last night, I turn it on, it won't boot past the animated white and orange kindle fire logo. I still get the usual blue logo beforehand, the device is recognized by my pc, i can boot into fastmode, get into TWRP or CWM, I'm just not sure what to do from here.
Most other people with this problem seem to be stuck in fastboot, while i'm not.
Any help would be appreciated.
It sounds like your kindle's current stock rom got messed up
Here's what you should do:
Boot into twrp
Transfer a different rom to your kindle
Wipe what's needed
Flash the new rom
Reboot

Thanks a bunch for helping identify the problem Any specific rom you'd recommend? CM7 or ICS?
Also, would you be able to link me to a tutorial on what needs to be wiped, as well as how to flash said rom?
If you like stock you can get modaco
Gede rom looks very customizable
I'm on modaco now
Wiping nd flashing depends on the rom
Do you have TWRP or clockwork
I know more of TWRP

Kindle fire doing weird things

Hello all, I rooted my moms kindle fire back in January using the FFF method. I make a back up of the system monthly because she has slot of games. The recovery on it cwm touch, not sure of which version but I installed it in January...so a early version I assume. She turns on the tablet then it powers off once it goes to the home screen and then goes into recovery and tries to install something, then a triangle with the Android figure appears. So I restored a back up from last month and now it boots fine. Is there a reason why it did this? I see other threads that have this problem but they have battery issues, this kindle is fully charged. I dont want this to happen again in the future, is there a update that maybe pushing through? thanks guys!

Can I Just Install Stock Android?

So, all the drama with my KFHD is getting old. Is there a way to get just stock ICS or Jellybean?
If you do it yourself, but then you would have to tweak everything to get it to work properly, its easier to install CM 10
Last I read CM 10 still wasn't ready for KFHD

Make sure you flash the right ROM. Are you sure you have a KFHD, if so, you would be best posting in that forum and not the Kindle Fire 2 forum.
Read, read again, and then read again. Too many people brick their devices by flashing ROMs or using tools not designed for their devices.

[solved] Kindle Fire "lost" root?

I just got my Kindle a few days ago. It came loaded with stock 6.3.3. I was able to root it using the SafeRoot guide.
Then I installed TWRP and a custom rom, JB 4.3.2.1 I wanted to update TWRP (currently at 2.2.2.1)
so I could try a KitKat rom so I went to the play store and installed TWRP manager to do the update but
it told me I needed root access. I am not sure how I lost root, I thought that installing custom ROMs
wouldn't lose root, as it had no effect on my Galaxy S3 in the past when I put custom roms on it.
Any help is appreciated.
Mostly likely superuser is just slow to responded, or allow/deny popup never popped like it should.
But I would just update twrp in twrp with a flashable twrp.zip from my list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2811253
