Kindle Fire - Kindle Fire General

Hello All..Fairly new to my new Kindle but I recently rooted it using the Kindle Fire Utility and it worked fine until I attempted a software reset.
Now I have a kindle that is completely unrecognized by neither ADB/Fastboot or the computer entirely when connected via USB. Is there a way to make the device boot into fastboot with maybe a power button combination? Seeing as there is no volume rocker/alternatives buttons it seems there is no hardware fallback for entering anything besides TWRP (which doesnt report to ADB or fastboot).
Any help/ideas?

Can a mod please change title to "Bricked Kindle Fire". I have the downs and omitted the bricked!

You created a NEW thread when many existing threads exist for various problems people are having. Did you read any of them?
You also didn't provide much info.
While you can't see it via ADB, what is the device doing?
Is the screen blank?
Is there a Triangle on it?
Is it looping?
Hard to help when you provide no real info on what the problem is.

Thought I mentioned it but I wasn't clear. The device is booting past the yellow triangle but only into TWRP.

Use kindle fire utility and reinstall twrp
Step 1 power kindle off
Step 2 open kindle fire utility on computer
Step 3 run install twrp option 5 i think
Step 4 plug kindle fire in and follow onscreen instructions

[Q] Please Help Immediately

Please hep immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Recently got a Kindle Fire And immediately when i got home i rooted it with no problems with burritoroot. Then after that I found a way to get The android Market on there And i was so happy. Then After that i began to flash the custom recovery on it everything went perfectly fine until i got to The Yellow Triangle on the the Kindle file and it told me to push the power button and it was waiting for device on laptop. So when i pressed the power button nothing happened so i pressed and held it and it did nothing but turn off and come right back to that screen I was waiting at the screen for an hour till i gave up and exited the Kindle Utility program on cmd and tried it without it now im stuck with this stupid yellow triangle on my screen and wish to got to my kindle os Can someone help me please??????
PS: I have all drivers Installed and followed the Video very thoroughly
I Exited out of Program before completion
It doesn't seem like this is the issue, but you could try changing the boot mode in adb to regular, instead of fastboot, its all i can think of right now. Does the device show up in adb?
Yeah, it sounds like it might be in the wrong boot mode.
Try using this utility if you haven't already. It helps a lot.
I tried That But I cant do that because My device driver is showing up as uknown and it wont let me update it so i cant access it T_T its just sitting there with a yellow triangle
this is where i can't help you, i only know mac stuff, no pc drivers crap and stuff, hope you find help elsewhere.

You are stuck in fast bootmode, it's not a big deal, there a ton of threads and post about how to get out of it. Search and you should find what you need, if not I can try to walk you through it but I'm no expert.

I found this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20421225&postcount=222 it's how I got myself out of fastboot.
You also might try reinstalling the drivers from the device manager. Your situation sounds similar to one I encountered and I solved it by reinstalling the drivers.

Like everyone said, it's no big deal. You need to reinstall the drivers and change out of fastboot mode (4002) and into regular boot mode (4000). This thread has it all in the first post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417234
don't sob, calm down, it will be alright. I assume you are young, so almost bricking a device may give you a heart attack, but there is almost always a way out of it. For right now, take a break from the device, get your mind off of it, and come back later, it WILL be alright.
Power the kindle all the way off.
Power it all the way back on.
Install drivers.

This will work!. When Vashypooh says to install the drivers he means to do it manually like this here is a quote from my thread on the complete video guide that would have answered these questions for you and fixed your problem immediately:
• I have also noticed that some people also get stuck at 3:55 in this video at the firefire triangle. The fix for this is fairly easy and is explained in the video if you need a walkthrough step by step for doing this (Updating the drivers)here you go:
- Go to start Menu and right click on computer, Click manage
- In computer Management hit device manager
- I am guessing that you see your kindle connected in there with a yellow ! by it
- Right click on kindle and update driver software
- Click Browse my computer for driver software
- Click let me pick from the list of device drivers on my comp
- Click Next
- Click Have Disk
- Click Browse
- Navigate to your user folder in that window/ or wherever your .android folder is
- Double click on .android folder
- Double click on Driver Folder
- Now Click open
- Now click ok
- Click Next
- ClickInstall driver software anyway
and you should be okay!
Here is that thread on the complete video guide that I find have answered many others questions....

Sure can bud... Here is a link to my guide that you should follow.... If you did you would not have this problem. There are two ways that you can fix it manually and automatically. The automatic way was just updated onto my guide today but is for windows only. The manual way is right under that update for individuals that want to do it to understand things better or on a different os on their pc... Good luck and if you have anymore problems, you can feel free to pm me and I can either walk you through it on irc or teamviewer....

Which version of kindle fire utility did you use? You have to be sure that it is ver.0.9.1 because the version before that there was a problem with the twrp file in older versions of the kindle fire utility.
Also are you sure that your battery was charged before you started to do this?
Like I said if you continue to have problems I can get on teamviewer with you and show you how to reinstall the drivers manually so that you can access your adb shell to change fastboot. Just pm me if you have anymore problems and need someone to do it for you..
i used the last version of kindle fire utility 0.9.1 and the battery was charging, I believe that now is completely discharged
I'm installing latest version of Windows XP on vmware, if you want to help me after I would be grateful...
sorry again for my bad english

I sure will make sure that you get teamviewer if you do not already have it. When you are using windows xp make sure your .android folder is in the proper place
C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\
Just making sure that your .android folder is in the correct place. It should be though if you installed root and android market already though.
nothing, now the kindle fire don't start enymore i think the battery is over.....

[Q] Kindle fire stuck at yellow triangle while Flash Custom Recovery (TWRP)

My kindle fire stuck at yellow triangle while Flash Custom Recovery (TWRP).
Kindle fire can not found in device manager.
In device manager show USB device but I cann't install driver.
Please help me to solve this problem.
were you flashing with KFU? Try using v0.9.1 rather than 0.9.3
from the op of kfu:
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.

Hey guys, normally I would research this good, but I'm in a bit of a time crunch. So, if I unplugged it, I need to follow the directions linked above (uninstalling drivers / reinstalling drivers)?
This kindle belongs to my nephew and I've had it for almost two weeks, I would like to return it to him soon.

[Q] [HELP] Kindle Fire dead display

Hi, i got my kindle fire 3 days ago. The first day I installed ice cream sandwich, the March 19th ICS CM9 Kang ROM, everything was running excellent and smooth. Last night, before going to sleep I plugged it. This morning i press the power button and it wakes up, but after 2 minutes of use the screen started to flash in gray tones, I though it had crashed and reboot it(press the power button for 25 secs), after I turn it back on it shows the FIREFIREFIRE triangle for 1 sec and started to flash this awful gray screen. And after that it didn't show any image, the back light turns on but it doesn't show nothing.
I know its booting into ICS because I still get the email alert sound.
I'm thinking on returning it as i bought it at a local walmart. I'm just concern about the fact its flashed to ICS. I know the way on how to take it back to stock, the thing is i just can't see anything on the screen and I'm not sure if the touch sensors still work.
Also when i plug it to the pc and run the KFU it show the status as offline and the power button turn orange.
I really don't know what to do right now, i guess it's just bad luck for getting a defective one. Any tip, advice or suggestion will be appreciated.
Is adb working? Use adb or fastboot to install the stock room

OK, plug kindle into computer, go to cmd, change directory to android-sdk/platform-tools, type:
Code:
adb
adb remount
adb devices
then your kindle serial should popup in cmd... report back and I can help.

[Q] [Trouble] Rooted 6.2.2 - Stuck on yellow fire triangle

Hi there,
I rooted my Kindle Fire (6.2.2) a few days ago. It was working perfectly for two days. When I turned it on the 3rd day, the following happened:
1. It went into the recovery screen without me pressing the on/off button to turn it orange.
2. A few seconds later, a big android logo came up and there was a message (I'm sorry, I don't remember what it says)
3. I didn't know what happened so I turned the device off hoping to get rid of this problem.
After that, whenever I turn it on, it only shows the yellow triangle with picture of fire in it. I tried to hold on to the on/off button for 30, 60 and 90 seconds, all it does is to turn the device off.
I really need some help, please. I don't understand why it suddenly stopped working after two days. Is it related to the new 6.3 update?
Go into kfu and ten go into the boot menu... (1) then choose normal boot.. hope this helps!
Is the battery low or almost dead. You could try plugging it in and see if it boots up. Mine does this exact thing when the battery is dead. Just charge it up and good as new

Hi fiddlefaddle,
Thanks for the idea, but my Mac doesn't recognize the device.
Should I use a Windows machine and download the kfu somewhere?

Thanks for your patience.
I downloaded and unzipped the file. After turning the Kindle Fire on and off and "waiting for device..." didn't do/show anything else --- stuck.
Then I try to run the "install_drivers" from the extracted files list, the following message popped up:
"The current language is not supported by the Device Driver Installation Wizard.
Contact the vendor that provided you this package."
Does it mean I need to get a computer that is running English Windows to do this?
Thanks for your patience again.
