have you tried
adb shell
idme bootmode 4000
or vashypooh's kindle fire utility to change the bootmode?

Linux. Adb isn't seeing it. Is there a specific mode within TWRP I'm supposed to be in? I can mount and I've tried installing Update zip with a rooted 6.2.1 and CM7. says installing but then gets the misc error and after reboot just bounced back to TWRP

Can get zipped ROMs on there. Says installing. Complete. But nope, just back to TWRP. Damnit

Reinstall the drivers.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399889
did it yesterday - works perfect after a little hassle with my windows drivers
Don't use reboot to recovery in cm7 it will cause this.
adb shell
idme bootmode 4000
Will fix this as well.

ADB shell not reconizing it.

I rooted it and installed CM7 on it, CM7 was getting a boot loop so I did a factory reset, I read online that I should reinstall CM7 to help get rid o the boot loop, i turned off the kindle, putting it into recovery mod (like a t**t). Stuck in FFF boot loop, windows reconizses its an ADB device but nether the KF utility, nor ADB thinks its plugged in. I can mount it as a mass storage device. Any help is appreciated.
Edit: This picture better explains what is going on, but as i am a new user, i cannot post a link so I'm sorry but you will have to copy and paste this : i.imgur.com/3Lcsh.png

As i was trying to explain adb shell keeps telling me the device isn't found
And before you ask, yes i have installed the drivers and yes i have reinstalled them and yes i have rebooted the device and my computer
Did you try using the command prompt instead of the KFU? I had success doing it manually.
yup, no luck
Remove the KF, uninstall the drivers, restart Windows, and install them manually.
That should work.
no luck, still stuck
Did you edit the "adb_usb" and "android_winusb" files?
HOLY **** after ~ 4 hours of tinkering i got it!!!
Within the KFU i installed the TWRP recovery and while it said waiting for device, I restarted it. I had done this before but it didn't take.
I LOVE THE KFU, IF I HAD ANY MONEY I WOULD GIVE IT TO THEM.
If anyone in the future has this problem and has any questions, PM me and I will try to help you as best as I can.

yes.
i install the google apps with the utlity and it worked fine
im not sure why i cant get into recoverymode
KFU 0.9.5 does not seem to produce the yellow triangle upon startup. The only way I could enter TWRP was to run the utility again and install TWRP from scratch. 0.9.1 does not have this problem though.
Uninstall your drivers. Reinstall them manually.
Use command prompt to enter fastboot command.

Kindle Fire automatically loads to CWM and won't load past it?

I finally managed to unbrick my KF and reroot it a few weeks ago only for amazon to come out with 6.2.3 or whatever the new version is and of course it unrooted it.
I have a MacBook Pro so I decided to use BreakDroid to reroot my KF.
Well in the process of doing so it installed CWM which has turned into a total monster.
Now my KF will only load to either the Yellow Triangle screen or the CWM-based Recovery menu screen. I keep trying to boot it out of that mode by using
cd /Users/macuser/android-sdk-macosx/tools
./fastboot-mac -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 5002
but that just seems to take me to the red CWM menu screen.
Does anybody know how I can get CWM off of my KF for GOOD?
I swear if I see that red menu or that yellow triangle again I'm going to throw it across the room.
Help a girl out?
To change to normal boot, use 4000 or use the following fast boot commands:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
or
fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000
then fastboot reboot

Didn't Work
I tried that...it didn't work either. It just brought me back to that stupid yellow triangle.
Since you have cwm, restore your backup or flash your desirable ROM.

You know I actually decided to do that on my own before I read your post and it totally worked! Thank you for giving me the advice though.
I am glad you got your KF working

I tried this but it didn't seem to work for me.
One problem is when I renamed the update to "update.zip" it doesnt show up as a file I can install in TWRP. However, when I actually .zip the update then it shows up.
I used install and it says "installing" with a progress bar, but when I reboot it goes right back into TWRP recovery mode.
My kindle is fully accessible through Kindle Fire Utility, but it will only stay in recovery mode, If I try to put it back into normal mode it gives a message "The system cannot find the drive specified".
I think at some point I deleted the system files using TWRP assuming I could just flash them back. I'm guessing I was wrong at this point.
Any help would be appreciated.
all u had to do, was tap reboot system on cwm. its not twrp, it ain't broken. no adb boot mode changes. just reboot lol

[Q] Help would be apreciated

Hi I'm new here but lately I'e been reading a lot of the posts about rooting and installing roms on a kindle fire since I recently got one. I got cyanogen 9 on it (I think anyways) and used twrp for it. All went well but when I tried to go back to twrp, it loaded CW. Could anyone point me in the right direction to get twrp back on since I felt more comfortable with that?
Thanks for any help I can get
Get your command prompt ready and make sure both TWRP and fastboot are in your present working directory.
You can use CWM to reboot into fastboot mode or do it manually, then...
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrp.img
Where "twrp" would be the exact name of the recovery.img you want to flash.
After it's installed...
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
...to get out of fastboot. Then reboot.

Just follow the direction in the following thread to install TWRP 2.0 or 2.1. Please note you need to select the KF as a device to download the correct version

Or type it, but yes. You need to be in fastboot mode first (stuck at boot screen). CWM has an option to reboot into fastboot.
[Edit:] Not to insult your intelligence, but make sure your device is plugged into the computer first

After you download the image file, do the following
[ how to flash/install ]
reboot into fastboot mode and enter the command:
fastboot flash recovery filename.img
Then you need to change the mode to normal boot. I think that you did fastboot boot filename.img . You need to flash the file into recovery. Good luck
