Hello guys,
Well am kinda stuck with something really annoying with my kindle fire (1st Edition). Since it had amazon software, i wanted to root it into android jelly beans Rom which i was able to do. But it was a bit laggy so i decided to root it with another Rom which i found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2747564. I plugged the kindle into my pc and i copied the Slimkat Rom and the gapp build 6 into the storage. Then i used the run application found in the KFU. Next thing i did was i pressed the number 1 which is bootmenu and then number 3 for the recovery and it went into TWRP. There i wiped the Dalvick cache, cache, and system. Then i went in install and there were the 2 files Slimkat Rom and the gapp. I installed both which was done fine and i rebooted the system. Here is where it gets nasty, upon rebooting the system it shows the kindle fire blue logo and at the bottom it says Booting...and nothing happens. Its stuck here and i dont know what to do. Another problem is that when i plugged the kindle into my pc with the kindle fire blue logo and the booting...stuff, it doesnt even detect it anymore. Can u guys see if u can help me with this please
Im using windows 7 Ultimate service pack 1 64-bit. Please help me do something to make it work again. Thnks.
Slimkat ROM is an otterx. You need the new boor loader and twrp 2.7.1 in order to flash the ROM. This will change your partitions to otterx rather than the Amazon layout. If this sounds confusing, you should choose a standard otter ROM, not otterx.

Ok...then is it possible to restore the kindle to its previous state? If so, can you please advise me how? Thanks.

My kindle fire is stuck at FIREFIREFIRE bootloader ( the screen which has a kindle fire logo and an android logo above it)....
My conditions are like this:
Kindle fire - ROOTED
ROM - Kindle Fire Stock Rom
TWRP - Installed
FIREFIREFIRE - Installed
And i could'nt find 'kindle fire' in my windows device manager when i plugged my kindle on my pc...
Help will be appreciated...
This is a must-read: [GUIDE] Kindle Fire For Beginners
Be sure to read the first 3 posts.
not finding ' kindle ' , or 'android device' on my windows 7 device manager...so how shud i get rid of it? has anybody experienced it?
Long press on the Fire power button does nothing - doesn't launch TWRP in recovery mode. Entering commands in a Command window from my laptop isn't getting through to my Fire. And, as I mention above, the Kindle Fire device is not available on my Device Manager
After reading the guide potestasx offered you, do you you understand why your device is stuck at the boot screen?
I think i've been stuck at boot loader due to lack of battery....
I fully charged it after that...
but its still stuck...
Cant find 'kindle' or "Kindle' on my Device manager...
So dont know whether i on Fastboot mode or Normal mode...
I assume that i m on fastboot mode...
i tried installing drivers from 'install_drivers' in 'kindle fire utiltity'...
but none changed...
Known Tricks
If you end up stuck at the yellow triangle, in KF Utility select Boot Normal, wait for it to say <waiting for device> and then press and hold the power button 20 seconds until the fire turns off, then when its off turn it back on. This sometimes happens, I have yet to find a clean solution If you end up stuck with a yellow triangle, do not EVER unplug it. Leave it plugged in. Check the windows drivers to make sure it isnt showing as "kindle" again. Fastboot is different and can cause this.
Please note: If your device can't be seen in fastboot mode, please make sure to install the drivers packaged with this, as it will show up afterwards. You can use the install_drivers.bat with the device plugged in for this.

Not quite. First of all, you're in the wrong bootmode. You just need to change it back to normal and you'll be just fine. The guide posted earlier has information on the different bootmodes, how they work, and eventually how to change them. From your description it should be pretty easy to fix.
You also need to pay attention to the second post of that thread as it will help you verify that your drivers are in order. The third post will give you the necessary tools to fix your problem and any others that may arise.
I will tell you this, after you've changed your bootmode it would be a good idea to reinstall TWRP and then use TWRP to install FFF1.4
Thanx a lot Thepooch...My kindle fire is working now....
thanx.... I m thinking of installing FIREFIREFIRE v.1.4...It has fixed charging mode and other..
It'll help if it happens further...
Thanx again
Your welcome be careful with it now
I thought it's working but it is doing the same thing again again... it is rebooting and sticking to the bootscreen again after using 5 mins.....Cant understand the problem behind it...what to do?

Are you able to boot to recovery? If so, you might try running a backup and then load a custom rom just to test normal boot. I've had bootmode issues twice with the stock rom (6.3 & 6.3.1).

How are you trying to get to recovery?
By using FFFv1.4a....

Run fastboot 5001 (full command in the guide thread).
If it says waiting on device, hold the power button until it shuts off and then power it back on. That should alow you to get into recovery.

Yep, that'll do it. The stock roms were not built to update with root/recovery installed. I learned that the hard way, too.

Need more information; as in...
What OS are you using? How familiar are you with it?
What's your current level of experience?
What exactly did you do to "reset to factory settings"?
Have you flashed a ROM to your Kindle or leave it stock?
When you say "it goes to the twrp then goes to the orange kindle fire", are you saying that it boots up to the TeamWin blue curtain splash screen then goes back to the stock boot logo? Or is it something completely different?
Are you familiar with the difference between TWRP and FireFireFire?
Based on your description and depending on your current understanding of how the Kindle Fire works, your problem could be one (or more) any number of things.

Hi,
You download Kindle_Fire_Utility_v0.9.6 and run it.
Then choose 1 then 1 ( normal mode). KF is live again.
If still live again, you try Kindle Unbrick
If still live again, can you try factory cable and run command
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img
In TWRP, you can install rom stock kf ( download rom for KF from Amazon)
reseting bootmode sounds realistic but as you can see in his post above he says his kindle goes to recovery I suggest doing very little till you have fully explained your situation with better clarity as soupmagnet recommended in his response.
sorry guys
You guys are right, i should explain better and ill try to, I don't have much knowledge of the Kindle fire. OKay so, I have a kindle tht runs andriod software 6.3.1. I've recently rooted my kindle using 0.9.6 utility. I've upgraded my kindle to go launcher ex. I wanted to reset my kindle to how i bought it at the beginging. So i went to device menu and put it to factory resent, which didnt reset everything. Then i turned it off and tried going to twrp to see if i can find a reset to normal button. There wasn't any, and after twrp when it goes to the orange kindle logo, it just stays there and doesnt do anything. The kindle fire logo isnt lighting up or changing at all. So i need some help on what to do, thanks hope this information is better
If you just want a factory Reset then just flash the Kindle Fire Stock ROM.
First go into TWRP.
Just to be safe go to wipe and wipe cache, dalvik's cache, and then do a factory reset. Then put the Kindle Fire Stock ROM zip file on your kindle fire. To do this go into TWRP and select Mount. Now you can acess your sd card so put it on there. Now go to install and you should see the .zip file. Install it and you have a brand new Stock ROM(basically a factory reset).

Thanks for the help that you gave me, I tried it but it just won't work, when i plug in my kindle into the computer it doesnt show up, thats one of the main problems too. Thanks anyways tho.
So you couldn't do it because it wont detect your device? Did you try going to TWRP and pressing mount? If that doesn't work, then I'm not really sure what you can do. It should detect it. Try a hard reset and mount again. Sorry that I cant really help you right now
Could you maybe give anymore information? Like what it says when you plug it into your computer.

When you're in TWRP, plug Kindle into the computer and go to Mount and then Mount USB. Then transfer a rom to your Kindle. Unmount. Wipe cache, dalvik cache. Then flash the rom. There are tons of Jellybean and ICS roms in the Development section that you can use.
Edit: Here it is a little bit easier to read
1) Let the Kindle boot into TWRP
2) Plug Kindle into Computer and Mount USB (Mount>Mount USB)
3) Download a rom from the Development section
4) Transfer the <whatever the rom name is>.zip to the Kindle
5) Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache, and Factory Reset
6) Install the rom
7) Reboot and don't make the mistake again. lol.
where is the development section
Thank You Guys!:good::victory:
Sorry to keep bugging but can I unroot from here on.
I download JellyBean and it works fine but I want my kindle back to the original settings-Stock.

Try the MoDaCo GR9 ROM. It's exactly like stock but you have access to play store also and it has some customizations.
Kindle Fire Problems Need HELP
So I just got my kindle fire for my birthday a week and a half ago, and I really wanted to get google play. So I rooted my device using TWRP with the hopes to install Modaco. Well the problem is that now even with installing the drivers the 'path' is not recognized by any thing and I'm not sure if it's bricked (Can access TWRP with a hard reboot in recovery) or the interface is entirely wiped outside TWRP. I would post what it was stated in Wget but this is my first post so gotta wait 9 more posts before pasting apparently. Noob here obviously.... i feel horrible cuz even though it's mine my boyfriend got it for me... and yeah he's severely disappointed. >.>
Any Help is greatly appreciated, a walk through even better. The warranty is void and the store it was bought from will not take returns on KF. Please help Thank you! :crying:
Will add also that it comes up under device manager as two differnt things:
Android ADP Device
&
under USB's:
USB Composite Device (Not Kindle, etc etc)
Next time your online pm me I will help you look at what the problem is
This is somewhat unique, I haven't found an exact duplicate of this problem yet, but basically I have 2 original KF's. I rooted them months ago, and installed android 4.2 on them. I got a couple new tablets and decided to bring these back to factory defaults, so I went through the process. One worked great and is currently able to do everything as per usual. The second is in a perpetual boot loop. I can't get FFF or TWRP to install because it won't stay booted long enough. It will boot usually with the Kindle Fire gold and white text, and then go to the unlock screen. Once I swipe to unlock, I get a handful of errors about processes not working properly. I can navigate around for right about 20 seconds before it immediately reboots. There is no shutdown process, just a black screen and then the KF logo again. I have a full charge and I am at a loss, any suggestions?
I would reflash the rom.

This is my problem exactly as well! I got rid of the error messages by clearing the data of contacts, contacts storage and calendar applications.
You can do this from settings -> applications -> all applications
Any help for the continuous lock screen -> home screen -> boot logo -> lock screen -loop would be appreciated!
I ran TWRP and had a custom rom on it before, but then reverted back to stock rom and am now running 6.3.2 from Amazon itself without any custom bootloaders.
So I got mine working, and now I feel really super embarassed.
Not sure which trick finally did it, but here's what I did:
I can't paste links yet as I am a newb user on the forum, but google for "kindle fire usb debugging" and open the result saying "Setting Up Your Kindle Fire Tablet for Testing". Note that there are two steps in that guide, first install the Amazon provided USB-driver and then prepare your Kindle.
Then the embarassing part: change the USB-port. I tried with three different cables and four different ports. Apparently the ports on the front of my desktop pc aren't good for this. After switching ports to behind my pc, Kindle Fire Utility all of a sudden was able to push in TRWP and FireFireFire bootloader!
4th: Wipe EVERYTHING using TRWP. Everything might not be necessary, but I figured why not. Even the SDcard had to go.
5th: Push in an older TRWP with instructions from here: teamw.in/project/twrp2/79
The instructions are a bit messy, after "idme bootmode 4002" you should exit the adb shell and run the fastboot command.
Having the older TRWP seems to be the only way to install Amazon's stock rom, newer ones give me errors. The version I used was 2.2.2.1.
I also installed the 6.3.1 version of the stock rom just to be sure, and let Kindle do the update afterwards on its own.
Everything seems to be working now, hope you'll get yours working too!

Thanks for your help. Will try this and report back.
Started from 6.3.3 on my 1st gen Kindle Fire. I was able to follow instructions to root, convert to OtterX and installed an AICP ROM. I decided I didn't quite like that and wanted to try some other roms. I can't quite remember my train of thought, but for some reason or other I decided to go back to the stock ROM and go from there. I was able to reset to stock partitions and install TWRP 2.2.2.1 and then began flashing the stock rom per shadow's tutorials. However, at about 80% progress on flashing the stock ROM, TWRP froze up. I left it there for a day to see, and after almost 18 hours there had been no change so I did a hard reboot (power button for like 15 seconds) and it shut down. Upon restarting, it tried to boot the stock rom but nothing happens at all.
I've been trying to use Kindle Fire Utility, and Kindle Fire Unbrick Utility, but neither are able to locate the device. I can hear my computer detecting it though, when I plug in and reboot I get the notification sounds that a device is being plugged/unplugged. [edit] It is listed in Device Manager, as Android Phone > Android ADB Interface. But still, no utility like adb, KFU or anything else is able to see the device.
Any thoughts on what I could do to get back to any usable state here? Thanks in advance.

Did not realize that about Unbrick, that explains some things.
I've since gotten over this hump and am now working on different issues. I could not get to a bootloader or recovery at all, until I got a fastboot cable. That changed the device listing on my PC to "Android Composite ADB Interface", and then it was recognized by adb and fastboot, which allowed me reflash a bootloader and TWRP, and get it back to booting into the loader instead of the failed stock ROM installation.
Need some help please
Hi, I have a kindle fire 1st gen. The problem is like this, I can`t get into recovery, I can`t get into OS wich is custom, it is stuck at booting. In device manager I can`t see the tablet/kindle/Amazon Kindle/Android phone. When I restart the tablet right before "booting"for a few second appears in Device Manager as Android Phone. The kindle is white and the fire is blue.
Please give me some piece of information about restore it to original. (windows 8.1 x64, twrp 2.8.5 - and I tried to push a lower version but I dont know if it succeded)
Thank you very much!

Please give me some piece of information about restore it to original. (windows 8.1 x64, twrp 2.8.5 - and I tried to push a lower version but I dont know if it succeded)
Thank you very much!

Hi, thank you for your input.
After I connect to wall charger, the tablet powers up, and I can select recovery or normal. Either one I select nothing happens, keeps saying booting.

Guessing that twrp is corrupt
Flashing Twrp in FFF bootloader with fastboot.exe
