I have an original Kindle Fire rooted with CWM and after I did some app updates, something must have serious been affected by the changes. My Kindle Fire now immediately shuts off after first unlocking it. After shutting off it will reboot and attempt to load (shows the android robot with some blue prism thing) which will fail and show a yellow triangle with an exclamation point. I then have to hard reset the Fire to reboot it. I can get the Kindle Fire to boot back up again but only to shut itself off again immediately after unlocking.
I have attempted to restore the kindle fire through the kindle UI (when I can get it to stay on long enough) as well as restore it through the CWM prompts. Nothing seems to work.
To add insult to injury, the kindle also will not be recognized by my macbook. I have tried both through kindle and CWM mounting and have tried using multiple cords and multiple laptops. Sadly none of them will recognize the Kindle Fire so none of them will let me move an update.zip onto it.
I feel like I'm completely stuck, does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do? Also please let me know if there's any other information needed to help answer this question.

Ok Noob here and here is my problem
I tried to use the kindle fire utility to root my kindle fire 6.3.1
I happened to have really ****ty luck and my power went out in the room where it was happening. So now I am stuck on my "kindle fire screen"
I have tried these steps to fix it.
I ran the utility and it says online but for boot status it says: Unknown
I choose for the boot menu normal, nothing happened, and then fast boot, nothing happened. I tried reinstalling the root nothing happened, I ran the unbrick utility for getting stuck at the kindle fire screen. Nothing happened.
So now I am stuck on the screen with 21% battery warning coming up.
At this point I dont even care about rooting just want the thing to work.
So I will be eternally grateful if you guy can help
I have the same problem, its stuck with Kindle Fire on the midle of the screen. When I try to open run.bat the ADB status is offline (it was online when i tried the first time, but when i pressed 2, the KFU couldnt download the TWRP). How can I fix it? I just want to get it working again.
I've recently rooted my kindle fire, which is running 6.3.1. I tried resetting my kindle fire by going to menu,device, and factory reset, and it obviously didn't work. I next shut down my kindle fire and went into twrp, and tried to see if i could find a button to reset my whole kindle back to how i first bought my kindle fire. After i gave up, I tried going back to the kindle fire normal home screen. Problem is, after when i turn on my kindle fire, the logo turns blue, and then it goes to the orange kindle fire logo and stays and does nothing. It just holds still like that. This happened for the past week, and I've went into twrp many times to find a button that could bring my kindle back to normal. After a while, I realized there was a way to unroot my kindle fire. I plugged my kindle fire into my computer, and this is another problem. Too unroot my kindle, I need it removable storage device, which usually pops up when you plug it into your computer. Instead it shows a usb port with a check mark and it gives you two option when you click it, opendevices or printers, or eject kindle. I want my kindle to pop up when i go into my computer so i could drag a file to it so it could be unrooted. PLease help me so it would be like that Any help would be thankful
You can mount your USB storage from within twrp.
not to be mean but you kinda need to know all this before doing anything to your kindle.I could go on but then I would sound mean

Moving to Q&A
A while back, I rooted my mom's Kindle Fire, and installed FFF (yellow triangle logo) and TWRP onto it, I don't remember all the details. Recently, the kindle stopped working. Whenever the kindle is turned on, it stays on at the FFF logo for about 1 second, then immediately powers off. My computer never seems to see the device connect, so issuing fastboot commands seems slim, but I'm still trying. I may splice together my own factory cable and hope that works. In the meantime, does anyone know what could be causing this problem to happen out of nowhere?
Hi there,
All was going well with my Fire HD 8.9, I rooted it, had the 2nd bootloader installed and was trying to install CM 11 before I got an error message saying that the jem version was the one I needed. I couldn't get my computer to recognise the the Kindle whilst in TWRP, so thought that I'd have to restore from the backup I made (of the stock Kindle OS and settings) to be able to transfer the version of CM that I needed. The backup seemed to work, but it hasn't in fact.
I turn on the Kindle and it gets stuck at the very first image of the logo, with NO animation
I'm unable to get back into TWRP
I can turn the kindle on and off but that's it
I can't use any recovery programs because my PC doesn't recognise the Kindle
I uninstalled and reinstalled the adb drivers, but when I connect the Kindle, my PC plays the 'Device Connected' then 'Device disconnected' sounds in quick succession, making the installation of any drivers fail
It's as though there's a brief second or two when USB works on the Kindle in terms of my PC knowing something is there, but then the USB disconnect noise plays
I only got it a day ago (managed to mess it up very quickly somehow!), so I could always try returning it if needs be, but hopefully that won't be necessary. Any ideas? Thanks in advance
EDIT - I can get the device to come up with fastboot mode and then the computer recognises it as an Adb device, but don't know where to go from there.
I would try to fix it from recovery if possible, it is way easier than having to do the process over again. You do know how to get it back into recovery right? Hold down volume up right after you power it on, just keep holding it even after kindle logo turns blue until you see the twrp logo. If that doesn't work, I would use kindle fire first aid to restore it and start over, but if you can get it into recovery then you can simply push a ROM onto it via adb.

Thanks for the reply. I actually managed to fix it in the end by using the fast boot command and then connecting the Kindle, then using the SR tool to erase user data and cache, before flashing the boot and recovery imgs (just saying in case anyone googles and this comes up and it might help).
So like so many other users around here, I tried to root my Kindle fire, flashing the firmware back to 5.1.2 but after using the ADB sideload command and rebooted, instead of being greeted by the generic "Fire" logo I got a black screen. I want to say it's a hardbrick but I don't believe any kind of tech is unfixable and if Amazon can fix it, so can we... Just a little unconventionally. I should also mention that as long as it's connected to a computer, the USB device icon does pop up for a fraction of a second then disappears so I'm thinking it's stuck in some sort of preboot loop. The only way for it to be shutdown was to pop the back and disconnect the battery. Is there anything I can do to bring my Kindle back from its perverbial grave? Any kind of nifty software that can breathe life into the device?
