if you can get into twrp select mount. it will mount it on your computer normaly then download SuperSu.zip and put on the root of sd (means in no subfolder) then flash it. it should boot normaly
When you root your device (Kfu method) you wont have FFF or superuser or galls. You have to do those things manually. On all the guides in this forum it says that.

DO NOT FACTORY RESET without doing a lot of reading first and understand the implications. In many circumstances, that is a quick way to make the problem worse. It could remove SU and ADB communication.

Well, this advice is useless for me because new firmware removes SU too

You will need a way to copy Stock Firmware file to a SD Card
You will need a few files
Drivers
Stock Firmware
update-kindle-37.5.2.2_user_522054520.bin.zip - AFH -
Custom recovery I used Twrp
UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip if you want to root
Open Gapps zip if you want Google Services (I suggest ARM/5.1/pico)
Instructions
Install Drivers
Change Stock Firmware file extension from .bin to .zip
Copy Stock firmware to sd card
Insert SD Card in the KFFOWI/Ford
Boot to Fastboot Mode
Boot Custom Recovery
In Custom Recovery, Install Firmware.zip, SuperSU.zip, GApps.zip
Reboot
I covered most of these steps in
2015 Fire: Booting TWRP, Rooting, Installing Gapps with Video
Tomsgt Video also covers most of this using Amazon-Fire-5th-Gen-SuperTool.zip in

Can I perform a full, stock recovery on 5.1.1?
I lost some stock Amazon apps (launcher, Amazon Video) during Root using AutoRootScriptFirev4.12.
I have used ADB to restore the 5.1.1 Update but it returns still missing the apps deleted during Root and no Launcher.
Both factory reset & sideloading the 5.1.1 Bin restore my tablet still with missing components.
Is 5.1.1. only an update and not the full restore?

I tried to install TWRP. It won't boot into TWRP. Nor will it boot into stock recovery. All I am able to do is get it to FASTBOOT mode. I current'y have Slim rom on it. It stopped loading as well. It just sits there with the Slim logo rotating. Any help will be great.

I installed the OS from Amazon OS 5.1.2 to Android 5.1.1. (Lollipop). It worked a few days and started intermittently working sensor and I decided to reinstall another Android 5.1.1. After reinstalling the tablet does not turn on. Then I went in fastboot and through ADB installed Amazon OS 5.1.1.
The result: the tablet when turn on does not show screen AMAZON, that is does not react to pressing the power button. When connected to the computer constantly appears and disappears "PreLoader USB VCOM Port".
Tell me, please, how can I restore the tablet after that?

i have the same problem. So far the only fix is to order a used motherboard on the web and hope it isn't bricked. Amazon should really release a program to return the device to stock from the PreLoader USB-MTP mode.
There is this thread for the possible solution:

Amazon has a generous 'no questions asked' exchange policy during the warranty period which runs 90 days to 2 years depending on model and region. Device is not intended for enthusiasts as evidenced by aggressive lockdowns. Why would any company in their right mind release such a tool given the target audience?
Bricked my tablet but I'm able to boot into fastboot mode
Hello,
I have just softbricked my tablet because the wrong OpenGapps were flashing.
The problem is I can't start a custom recovery because the boot loader is too new
And I can't access my stock recovery because I've tried flashing TWRP from it in the past.
What can I do now? As I said earlier, I can access the device using Fastboot commands, but I don't know how to get at least one ADB interface working on the tablet so that I can upload the stock image to the device.
Thanks for any help!

So what can I do now? As I said, I'm able to access the device with fastboot commands but I don't know, how to get at least a adb interface running on the tablet so I can sideload the stock image.
Many thanks for any help!

You will not be able to reload stock FireOS from fastboot as the necessary commands have been disabled by Amazon. Pretty much game over if you can not access stock recovery and bootloader version is >5.0.x.
Can you describe "softbricked" symptoms in more detail? At what point during boot process does device hang/loop?

OK. So I wanted to install the new Fire Nexus Rom and I may have installed the wrong package or something, but the symptoms are the following:
When I press the power switch, it turns on. Then the Amazon logo appears and after about 10 seconds the screen goes black again. The whole thing then repeats itself in a boot loop
i flashed stock update-kindle-37.5.2.2_user_522054520.
following a link in the forums
had to do it for pokemon
can i just flash any newer version as well this way or will ability to fastboot boot twrp then be gone?
thanks for any help
Hello. I have a Fire HD 8 which was rooted and I tried flashing twrp recovery onto it so to make the long story short the recovery (volume down + power) is stuck in a gray amazon logo screen and in normal mode it's a loop of the orange fire screen. Also I've installed all the drivers in my pc and have adb installed as well as the Kindle FIre Unbrick Utility which says there is no device.

Sounds like you wiped your recovery, as booting to the orange logo usually means a soft brick (which is fixable via flashing firmware in recovery).
In this case, with no recovery, it'll be a bit more tricky, as you'll likely need to take the device apart. Try following the method below:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80287339&postcount=154
You'll also end up with TWRP if you follow the above method.
Note: It may be possible to flash a stock recovery image in Fastboot, but I am not sure?

Correct my recovery is gone. Is there any way I could recover using software without opening the device?
For example for Samsung devices there is a Odin Flashing Software. But is there any amazon flashing software that I could reload everything including recovery? Thanks for your answer also

I don't believe there is any recovery software for these.
Opening the device shouldn't be too bad, and is probably your best bet.
The other option is to try and flash a recovery image via Fastboot. That's how I'd do it on other devices, but i'm not sure how it'll work on the Fire without hacked fastboot. See attached zip I took from the Unlock thread. One of the files in there is the recovery image.

Picture of Fire Tablet Errors on PC
Hello everyone,
First, I apologize for my English, I am using the Google translator, I am Brazilian.
I have a Fire Hd8 8th generation and yesterday, out of nowhere, it was in boot loop. Looking at some topics on this forum, I did adb sideload with the file name:
"update-kindle-Fire_HD8_8th_Gen-NS6315_user_2504_0003658074244.bin".
After the completion of the process, Fire continued in boot loop and now the option to restore via adb no longer appears as an attached photo. The only possible thing is to use fastboot through the reboot to bootloader option.
Please help me, I don't know what else to do.
I tried to solve this topic, but I was unable to reproduce what was requested:

Can you get into recovery? After you installed the firmware, did you try factory resetting it? If that fails, you might need to short the CLK pin. I have read that there have been issues with that working on some newer tablets. Read carefully.
After that I tried to perform the factory reset, but nothing resolved. It remains in the same boot loop and when I enter recovery mode, there is no option to update with adb.
I haven't seen this article about the CLK pin yet.
