Just to state this out i am a noob with a kindle fire i rooted with kfu 0.9.5.
my kindle is now stuck on the kindle fire logo, so let me explain from the start of how this predicament happened.
1: my kindle somehow isn't showing the books it had after a few days of using the root.
2: i tried to reset it to factory normal by using the factory reset function in the device menu, kindle still has root.
3: after i did that, the fire logo appeared and now, instead of going to kindle fire lockscreen, it goes to twrp interface.
4: at this point, being the noob i am, i use the factory restore in the twrp wipe menu, then i also wiped the system, which i think was a bad idea.
5: i went to amazon customer support, and they couldn't do anything for me.
6: i went online to this forum, which i learned of the unbricking method, and i followed the direction of king_xerxes:All you need to do is have the KFU opened to change to normal boot and at the screen where it is waiting on the device. Have your KF connected to your computer, and turned off. While you are "waiting on device" turn on the KF and it willl see it and send the command, but it will only see it for a few seconds and then you will need to reboot the KF after it has sent the command."
7: now, after it rebooted and the fire and teamwin logo came up and went, it went to the kindle fire, and it stayed there.
so, as of right now, it on there, plugged into my computer and charging, stuck on the kindle fire logo. All i want to do now is just unroot it, get my e-books back, and then i'll go from there. so, if possible, can anyone help me?
Yeah here's where you messed up you wiped system leaving your kindle without a system to boot from I believe. Here is my best suggestion but this is just to get you goin mount your SD card in twrp if you can get there. Connect your kindle to computer access your SD card contents move this to your SD card but don't put it in a folder http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439916 then hit the home button on the top right of twrp even though you have wiped it to death do factory/data wipe,cache,and dalvik hit the home button again this time hit install, find the rom file in the list, tap to select,then hit install flash gapps if necessary . Let it do its thing when finished hit reboot select system. Initial boot will take a bit give it time when done set up your account data hopefully. This is just temporary till you decide what to do next good luck.

Download the update.bin file in the link below AND CHANGE THE .BIN FILE EXTENSION TO A .ZIP BY RENAMING IT TO UPDATE.ZIP! YOU MUST DO THIS!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200790620
Transfer the .zip onto the root folder of your /sdcard folder on your kindle
In TWRP, flash the update.zip to go completely back to stock. No root, FireFireFire, or TWRP. Its like a factory reset

oh, i forgot, the kindle doesn't appear on the computer either, but weirdly when i plug it in to the computer, it makes that noise when something is connected to it. so now what do i do?
Did you mount it in TWRP? You might have to reinstall drivers..

The computer already has the necessary drivers to mount partitions in TWRP. They're the same drivers the computer uses to mount thumb drives and external media, and they're separate from the Kindle USB/adb drivers.
so,exactly,what do i have to do now?
Boot into TWRP
Mount > mount sdcard > Mount USB storage
Transfer file from computer to sdcard
but what i'm saying is that even in twrp, it won't appear on my computer as anything.
Ignore my last post, i found out why, it turns out i was missing the composite abd interface, now to try what the earlier posts told me to do.
its working!!!!!!! thank you to those who helped!!!!!
also, another question, what is the root status of it now? i used the Update.zip method and when i looked on kfu, it said it was still had the boot status:4000,
so is it still rooted?

The boot status is just whether it is in fastboot mode or regular. Your kindle should still be rooted don't worry about it.
so, to unroot it, i need to unbrick it?

Technically your Kindle isn't bricked. It's doing what it's been told to do, boot into fastboot mode. All you have to do is change the boot mode and it will work normally. There's no need to unroot unless you absolutely want to.
Read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23747567
It will tell you more about the different bootmodes. I suggest reading the whole thing to get a good idea of what's going on.

Hello,
I have an Kindle Fire HD 8.9 and today I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277105
Everything went well, untill I arrived at step 3. This is were it went wrong:
Check that "disable recovery auto update" box, leave everything else alone, unplug the cable, and hit flash (the first option). You will see a progress window, and just hit OK. Then, turn off the device. Now, when you turn it on, immediately hold down the Volume Up button (leftmost from the power button) before it turns blue, an once it does, count to three in your head and let go. Be patient because you'll be stuck on the blue logo for a minute or so, then you'll see the TWRP splash logo. Once you're in TWRP, you're done. Just hit reboot, and everything's finished. Now you can browse the 8.9" Development forum for custom ROMs.

After rebooting my device in TWRP, it gets stuck at the Kindle Fire logo in blue/white. (Click here for logo)
and my device is not recognized by my PC anymore.
The next step should be to load a .zip file from a custom rom on to the SD card. But since my PC doesn't recognize my kindle anymore, I can't do that.
I am still able to acces TWRP and I can still load in FastBoot Mode. But to be honest, I have no idea what to do now, since I am new to these kind of things. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Btw, my problem seems to be about the same as this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2330669

Hello, sorry for my bad english.
Im a noob and have been looking and trying different things for days now and can't fix my KFHD8.9", I would greatly appreciate any help. Sorry if this have been asked, but ive tried everything and nothing seems to work or match the same problems.
I rooted my kindle fire hd 8.9" (8.4.6) and tried to install the 2nd bootloader + twrp (to eventually install CM10.2) using this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277105), but stupidly, I didn't back up on step 2. I attempted to flash the bootloader using fireflash and, as long as I could make it I did everything that was needed. I rebooted and pushed the volume up while booting, and it went to the blue logo and then into fastboot screen and then stoped there.
My pc (Windows 8) didn't recognized the device while in the fastboot screen as a kindle but as a portable device called "jem-PVT-prod-04"
I rebooted my KFHD pressing power button, and when starting again, I saw the orange logo, then the blue logo and it just got stuck there.
So now I just can get to the fastboot screen (by pressing volume up while its booting) or get stuck in the blue kindle fire logo if i dont press anything.
I would like to add also that while on the fastboot screen , My PC wont communicate with my device. I have the Android SDK installed and could use ADB before this happened.
I have tried the commands -i 0x1949 getvar product and -i 0x1945 reboot as suggested on many posts, but both of them stays in "waiting for device" for ever.
Then i tried using Kindle Fire First Aide as suggested on other posts but after downloading everything it gave me an error about something not matching with my device and what i was trying to do.
In top of that, somewhere I got the impression that I just got stuck in the middle of the procedure and that I could still install TWRP or flash a rom,
So now I don't know if my device is bricked, or stuck in the middle of the procedure or what, but if anyone could help me get back to the stock firmware or to twrp or something other than this two screens (blue logo or fastboot screen) it would be spectacular
thanx in advance.
I'm having the same exact issue more or less, but I can't pass the orange Kindle logo. My computer will recognize the Kindle for about all of 2 seconds, but only as Jem_.... then disconnects so I can't enter fastboot or move forward at all. I'm hoping that someone can help with this.
You have to install the driver for the jem device with the drivers in my signature before fastboot commands will work. Try holding volume down instead of up, it should go into recovery instead of fastboot if I remember right.

Recd msg alert stunts513 to the error while using wallpaper fix 2.1
I am having a terrible time with this Kindle HD 2nd generation table I tried to root. I was following this guys post on You tube and got it rooted but something when wrong when I tried installing the 2nd bootloader and twrp. I ended up stuck with a blue kindle logo. I tried turning it on with the volume button pushed to the left and it went from orange to blue and then to the twrp recovery menu. That was a few days ago, Its been stuck in that mode ever since, there are no back up folders and I think was making the problem worse, as it seems I could do the adb push and now I cant, well at least i couldnt before running your wallpaper fix 2.1 I ran it once and it wouldnt take I dont remember the error, but my table was at the blue logo screen. I remembered reading about running something while you powered the device on because there was an few seconds of access to something, I cant remember so I tried that and unknown to me It appears from these notes i found that I suscessfully installed it - then tried again -then something about the backup??? I am going to cut and paste it here and not do a thing until I hear from you, as I dont want to mess it up. I didnt know the fix worked cause i was watching the command screen and not the side of the file where i have your tool on my desktop.
Here is everything from that run. in the attached file
OK so lemme get this straight, you are stuck in twrp without adb access? Also I will have to double check on my PC but when I download that file its not a PDF but a text file and its HTML with a 404 error message in it when I view it on my kindle.

Yes somehow I have twrp and I think when I first got into the bootloop I had adb access but in fumbling around trying to fix it I lost adb access.
If I turn the kindle off, and then push power and do nothing it powers up with the yellow logo and in 4 seconds that log turns blue and it stays that way until i turn it off. In this state checking device manager it shows the device as an android phone, Android ADB interface. If I unplug the device the device manager no longer shows it - If I power up the device and while the logo is still yellow push the volume button to the left it boots to twrp
I re did the notes in a new pdf file I hope you can access them now. I tried looking at them from my post on my pc and got that same access code error. I cant win on this thing tonight,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly

The tutorial at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277105 tells you, in step 4, to place a custom ROM on the Kindle before you reboot into twrp. You then install that from from within twrp and then you get past the blue logo. If you didn't put the custom ROM on your kindle and adb isn't working then you need to install the abd drivers from stunts513's forum signature then do the twrp adb sideload.
Relevant sections from the tutorial:
Once you have the .zip files for the ROMs with GApps (Google apps, like Play Store), place them on the sdcard, and turn off the device. Turn it on, hold Volume-Up before the logo turns blue, and enter TWRP. Once there, immediately do two things: make a backup, and after that, wipes: system, factory reset, cache, and Dalvik cache. After these two things are done, go ahead and flash the .zip file, and wait for it to finish. After it finishes, go ahead and again, wipe cache and Dalvik cache, then reboot. After you rebooted, wait 5 minutes, then reboot again, and you're all done!

6. Wiped /sdcard, can't reboot from recovery: You thought you had the ROM file on the sdcard, but you didn't, and wiped everything, so without a ROM image, you can't boot into system.
Solution: Put the ROM file where your ADB binary is (usually inside platform-tools folder in Android SDK directory) and rename it rom.zip. On the device, boot into TWRP, select Advanced, then ADB Sideload. Connect device to PC. From here, run "adb" and hit Enter to check for your binary version, if it's anything lower than 1.0.3.0, you need to update the binaries by re-installing the latest Android SDK. Once the device is in sideloading mode and is connected to the PC, type "adb sideload rom.zip" and hit Enter. Now you'll find the ROM on the sdcard, flash, and you're done.

Yeah, I know there's a lot of information. It took me a long time and a lot of research before I attempted it as a noob myself. An important thing is to follow the tutorials word for word and skip nothing, and cross your fingers.

Thanx a lot for the quick response! :good: I was finally able to install your great drivers. I had to be quick as you said in some other posts, because the pc only detects it for a little while, when the logo it's still orange on the kindle, I think. After that, and while on fastboot screen, my device manager would detect a Jem-something device, but could not install any drivers on it. So I had to install the drivers really fast while in the orange logo, oh, and had to disable the drivers signature check on windows 8 also.
Now I can use fastboot commands to reboot the kindle, but I can still only get to the blue logo or the fastboot screen.
I guess this means I now can use the kindle first aide to go back to stock and try again for the TWRP and 2nd bootloader. I'll post if I can't make my kindle boot normal again later.
Do you know if this was my kindle being bricked or was it something else?
Thanks a lot again, I was very worried that i wasn't getting anywhere. .:laugh:
Stuck on blue logo!
Hi!
I'm having a similar problem... I recently got a second hand Kindle 2nd Generation already rooted with Cyanogenmod 10.1.3.otter2 on it. Google Play and some other apps where having issues, so I decided to downgrade. After testing a couple of different ROMs, I got stuck on the blue logo, an infinite booting screen. Funny enough, I think the mistake was to install a Fire first generation ROM into a 2nd generation. Anyway, long story short, I've tried everything, Kindle First Aide (won't help because it seems that all the options need me to be in the desktop of the tablet and I can't get there), SDK ADB will see the device but return a device offline... I'm running out of options and don't really know what to do!
Any ideas guys??

I am having a similar issue like yours. Yesterday I tried downloading Jellybean onto my Kindle. I did all of the precautions, TWRP, KFU, etc.
And right as I thought I was done, boom, I get stuck in an infinite re boot. Every time it finally boots up it says android.process.phone for not even a full second and immediately reboots. I am not the smartest, but if someone could walk us through a way to restore our kindles or fix the problem. I would be most gracious! I am not sure what the ADB is as well. Is that what I am missing?

Well your problem is nowhere near the same as June's, but I'll go ahead and try to help your anyway. I've had this happen to me once or twice. My suggestion is to redownload your rom and gapps, and then try flagging them again. Hopefully that should work. There is an option in TWRP to mount your kindle on your computer.

So far.
Guys, sorry I might not have explained the issue in enough detail. Although the information is full of things that are helpful. It didn't quite help me.
Sorry about having to deal with a compete noob here...
---I'll list my issues to isolate confusion.---
-I cannot boot ADB, I click on it, a cmd window pops up and then immediately closes each time I proceed to open it. for a start, if someone could perhaps tell me what I am doing wrong, because I know I must not be doing what all of you pros are doing.
-Although I had TWRP installed on both my pc and kindle. Whenever I boot up my kindle, I do not get the blue and gray "Kindle Fire" logo before the Orange and White logo. So that for me was very frustrating.
-The Kindle Fire Utility is not detecting my device at all. Which is worrying me to death, the Kindle Fire Unbrick utlity is not working either which is killing me inside.
-For a detailed description of what my kindle fire does when I press the power button goes as so: I press the power button, the orange and white Kindle Fire logo pops up for a few seconds like normal, then it proceeds to boot or "Attenpt" to boot the Jellybean OS, after waiting 5 minutes, the OS lock screen pops up with "android.phone.com" or "phone.android.com" pops up, for a second, then it proceeds to fully rebooting the OS for another 5 minutes. It does it indefinitely.
So does this mean my kindle is officially done for? Bricked? Or is there still hope for me. This is really depressing, I spent most of my money on this, money is tight for me right now ant I use my kindle for school and research. It is a vital tool to me. I need all the help I can get.
Thanks for all of the help so far. You guys really know what you are doing, thanks!

---I'll list my issues to isolate confusion.---
-I cannot boot ADB, I click on it, a cmd window pops up and then immediately closes each time I proceed to open it. for a start, if someone could perhaps tell me what I am doing wrong, because I know I must not be doing what all of you pros are doing.
-Although I had TWRP installed on both my pc and kindle. Whenever I boot up my kindle, I do not get the blue and gray "Kindle Fire" logo before the Orange and White logo. So that for me was very frustrating.
-The Kindle Fire Utility is not detecting my device at all. Which is worrying me to death, the Kindle Fire Unbrick utlity is not working either which is killing me inside.
-For a detailed description of what my kindle fire does when I press the power button goes as so: I press the power button, the orange and white Kindle Fire logo pops up for a few seconds like normal, then it proceeds to boot or "Attenpt" to boot the Jellybean OS, after waiting 5 minutes, the OS lock screen pops up with "android.phone.com" or "phone.android.com" pops up, for a second, then it proceeds to fully rebooting the OS for another 5 minutes. It does it indefinitely.
So does this mean my kindle is officially done for? Bricked? Or is there still hope for me. This is really depressing, I spent most of my money on this, money is tight for me right now ant I use my kindle for school and research. It is a vital tool to me. I need all the help I can get.
Thanks for all of the help so far. You guys really know what you are doing, thanks!

Hey Phil. Doesn't look like you've posted anything else, so you probably won't see this. But oh well... Sorry your problem got left in the dust. I didn't mean for that to happen. You need to shift + right click in the folder with adb.exe and click "open command window here" and then you can do your things. As far as everything else: does your computer do anything when you plug your kindle into it?
I accidentally did this once (at least I think it's the same) and what I did was I went into ADB and side loaded a custom ROM I used CM
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).
