It is stuck at the picture of yellow fire icon, with a phase press power button for recovery at the bottom...... but no matter how many times i press the power button, it does not respond..............helphelphelp.....
Try holding the power button for about 20 seconds, that should reset it. You can also try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356257
Did you install a recovery yet? if so, try spam pressing the power button to get into it. From there you should be able to mount usb and install a rom
The kindle fire has several boot modes, one being a fastboot mode where it will stay at the bootloader until fastboot issues a command to change the boot mode. The command would be...
fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000 && fastboot reboot
not trying to be an ass but i wish people would learn some of the basics before jumping in head first into things they don't really understand then posting basic questions in the development section of forums
But my PC now cannot recognize my fire which is recognized as unknown device. Every time I tried to use adb shell, it said device is not found.....oh my god.....
And I have tried to hold the power button for more than 20s but it doesn't seem work.....
In fact I have installed TWRP once. However, when I am accidentally installing the TWRP twice, the fire is then stuck at the yellow triangle "FIRE" logo...and with a phase press power button for recovery at the bottom.
OH MY GOD....the Fire is my mum's ..... she is going to kill me
I didn't say anything about adb shell

not using adb shell??!! then how can I use the command????
You might also need to use the -i switch. So the command would look something like...
fastboot -I 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
not to be "that guy" but this is in the wrong section. it should go in general.
--sent from my glacier.
I had the same problem ... my computer recognized my fire for 20 sec and BAM! everything just got frozen... just triangle for ever... then I connected to computer ... I had the TWPR installer already open... and before freezing I tried to re install the recovery mod and it worked!
some basics:
driver (under android phone):
normal & recovery boot: -> android composite adb interface
fastboot: -> android adb interface
here all the possible commands to change bootmode:
with adb (secure kernel):
adb shell su -c "idme bootmode 4000"
adb reboot
or (twrp or unsecure kernel):
adb shell idme bootmode 4000
adb reboot
with fastboot:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
or:
fastboot -i 0x18d1 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x18d1 reboot
or:
fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot reboot
the number is the bootmode you want to switch to:
normal boot -> 4000
fastboot -> 4002
boot to recovery -> 5001
and if you know:
normal boot -> adb commands YES -> fastboot commands NO
fastboot -> adb commands NO -> fastboot commands YES
recovery -> adb commands YES -> fastboot commands NO
then you only have to count 1 and 1 together and can master nearly each hanging situation !

MY fire relights its fire!!!!! so many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
glad to help ...
please mark the subject of the topic (edit first post) with [Solved]
I solved it! it very easy:
1- plug your device to your PC while it is on fire icon
2- open "Kindle Fire Utility" and then press 5
3- done!
I was so scared that I had lost my kindle. I write this for others so hopefully will be helpful for them.

Hi, after spending several hours reading this forum Id like to say "you guys helping so many ppl, ure great " and ask for help myself.
I was doing the new root on rootkindlefire.com. After " fastboot -i 0×1949 boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img "and rebooting it stucked on the triangle. My device wasnt been found anymore. I had several trys on reinstalling the driver. But the kindle wasn`t supposed to work with them. Maybe trying this I deletec the working one so I cannot press " previous working driver ".
I felt asleep for 6 hours...
I dont really know what really happened. Maybe it was a frustrated line like "adb reboot " taking my fire in a neverending reboot-loop with the triangle independent of plugging the usb cable to pc or electric socket.
Apart from this my fire doesn`t show any reaction when i unplug the usb cable - It just turns off. I cannot turn it on or smth.
My pc isnt having any time to detect the device. Its not even doing the "pluged-in-sound" " device-couldnt-been-installed-sound" anymore. Any adb on cmd is giving " device not found ". Any fastboot on cmd is giving "waiting for device".
To be clear: My device is restarting every 2-3 sec an shows me the triangle.
I would be incedribly thankful for any help
would suggest to uninstall the old drivers
unplug kf
remove all kindle, adb device
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315539/en-us
replug (will power on by itself)
use those drivers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20855280&postcount=54
and set bootmode to normal with kfu or manually:
with adb:
adb shell su -c "idme bootmode 4000"
adb reboot
with fastboot:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
or
fastboot -i 0x18d1 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x18d1 reboot
Hi,
thank you for your idea.
But pluging in the device doesnt change anything to the reboot-loop.
I cannot install the hardware the right way so I installed it thourght " legacyhardware" - i dont know whether its a good idea.
So if we assume your way doesn`t stop working here and doing the next step I get by typing adb shell su-c "idme bootmode 4000" :
*daemon not running. starting it now *
* damon started successfully *
error: device not found
I guess i shouldnt continue, but thank you a lot anyway
that is ok !
set the bootmode to normal with kfu or manually:
seems your in fastboot mode
to test it use:
fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product
it should return "kindle"
then:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
or
fastboot -i 0x18d1 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x18d1 reboot
btw. have you used the drivers from my first post ?
I tried to add KF thought Legacyhardware. Thats an option in the device manager. I used your driver link for that.
Typing fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product just gives waiting for device, like any other fastboot-command.
PC seems not to be connected to my Fire
I successfully rooted my fire using Burritoroot 3. After it was rooted I clicked Flash FireFireFire, then hit deny....which Apparently I shouldn't have done. The Fire worked fine until it was turned off. Once it was rebooted, it just sticks at the "Kindle Fire" screen.
While I was stuck at the Kindle Fire screen, I deleted the Fire ADB Composite Drivers and tried to reinstall them. Now I cannot get them to install. When I plug the Fire into my computer, it shows up in the device manager as Android ADB Interface. I then uninstalled the drivers, to try to reload the drivers for the Composite Interface, which never worked. I can uninstall the Android ADB Interface, then the Kindle shows up under USB Controllers as an unknown device. it never gets listed as a kindle fire, always unknow devices. The only way I can get it to show up again is to open up the Kindle Fire Utility folder and open the Install Drivers.bat and run it. Then turn the Kindle off, then back on. Thats the only way I can get the Kindle to show up in the device manager under Android ADB Interface.
Also, I guess because I cannot get the Android ADB Composite Interface, I can't get it to show up as an attached device when using the "adb devices" command.
I assume it has to do with the boot (duh). Any ideas? I am a developer for Apple, and this is my first experience with rooting anything android, as you can probably tell. Any help is appreciated. TIA
Mike
Try to get KFU to recognize it.. then tell it to reboot in normal mode. It seems like you are stuck in fast boot to me.
if you have access to an Android phone, connect to your computer to retire the Android composite driver.
If not reinstall the sdk.

It looks like you want to root manually but KindleFireUtility will help you out of this conundrum. You can reinstall the drivers, root, and flash TWRP after you go back to normal bootmode
your kf is in fastboot mode - that means:
- it is using "android adb interface" -> not composite -> your driver is correct !
- it don't respond to adb commands -> only fastboot commands

Not quite sure what i did 0_o. I used the kindle fire utility to install permanent root. It rebooted and allwas well. Then i used the program to tell it to boot into fastboot mode. when I did this now it just loops between the Triangle and TWRP. Im guessing not screwed...i just dont know what to do next to fix it lol. I tried the brick fixer program. it just reboots the kindle fire and then it does the same thing over and over.
Try hooting into TWRP and telling it to reboot in normal mode.. using KFU of course lol.
I'm in the same boat...however, I figured out how to get it to stop and stay at the Triangle (fastboot mode)
I typed "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" into the Command Prompt Window on my computer. It then said <waiting for device>
I forced the Kindle off with the 20-sec press, then unplugged and re-plugged it into the computer.
Now I just have to figure out how to get the fastboot mode to give me access to the USB, or to get ADB working on this sucker. I'm trying to get a ROM over to the Kindle's internal memory so I can save it's life!
Hopefully this will give you a launching place, too. Oh, and using the Kindle Fire Utility will then work as long as it's in the triangle screen, but every step I've used with it so far just puts me back into the FireFireFire / TWRP loop.
Hey guys thanks for the response. shortly after I posted this I went into the kindlefire irc channel and they helped me out. somehow the stock rom i was on corrupted itself and even when i did
adb shell
su
idme bootmode 4000
reboot
It still wasnt fixed. So the solution was to flash that modaco rom thats here and then run the adb command again. Viola. Working Kindle Fire . Now if i can just figure out how to make the stupid wallpapers stop auto cycling lol.

would try to boot to twrp, tap the mount button and mount sdcard
now you should be able to copy a rom to sdcard and install it
to force it to boot to recovery issue: "fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 5001" and "fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot"
if it says <waiting for device> just cold restart the kf - the command should be picked up and finished
don't forget to switch back to normal boot after installation: "adb shell idme bootmode 4000" and "adb reboot"

my kindle fire is stuck on the Kindle Fire screen, with no animation.
i have looked through XDA but could not find anything with my problem.
i do not have TWRP or FFF.
I'm running the stock rom.
kindle is not recognized on ADB.
i uninstalled the driver, but now computer management doesn't have anything for the device listed.
i used the kindle fire utility to install the drivers, still not listed on computer management.
it is recognized in the bottom right as plugged in as a 'android adb interface'
i have tried using the kindle unbrick utility, but it says there is no device plugged in.
EDIT:
i restarted my computer. now the kindle is listed as unknown device in the bottom right and in computer management.
i am still unable to install new driver software on it, though.
EDIT:
I tried using the driver from the .android download, it says that it's not going to work.
if someone could help me, please, it would be great.
EDIT::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
UPDATE TO THE PROBLEM::::
the kindle is still in the kindle fire boot screen brick.
it went from being an 'unidentified device' to being 'android adb interface'
the error code has switched from code 43 to code 10.
it says Device Cannot start (code 10)
it is not recognized by ADB
unbrick utility still doesn't recognize.
neither does kindle fire utitlity.

that means:
your kf seems to be in fastboot mode -> adb commands not working
the question is what have you done to come to this situation ?
you can:
- try to switch to normal bootmode
- or try to install fff & twrp (this is done in fastboot mode)
switch to normal boot:
use kfu option 1 - bootmode normal or manually (see above)
when it says <waiting for device> power off the kf by holding the pwr button for ~20sec till it turns off - pwr on again - the command should be resumed and finished - another pwr off/on should bring you back
install fff & twrp:

Thanks so much I was having this same problem and have been bashing my head against the wall all day. This kind of thing is a little above my paygrade but I'm learning quickly!
alright fellas, I had cm7 and twrp installed..everything was just DANDY and then i followed these steps to upgrade to miui ics build:
"...Step 3: Once transfer is complete, shut down your Kindle Fire.
Step 4: Boot into a custom recovery. ClockworkMod Recovery and TWRP are popular choices and you can choose to install whichever you like.
Step 5: Take a NANDROID backup. This may come handy later on if you have problems with MIUI and wish to revert back to current setup.
Step 6: Do a complete wipe & factory reset from the custom recovery.
Warning: This will delete all your personal data.
Step 7: Flash the ROM you transferred to your Kindle in Step 1. In CWM, you can do this from install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard > [.zip file from Step 1]
Step 8: Wipe both cache and Dalvik cache.
Step 9: Reboot!"
after that Im stuck at the recovery yellow triangle, so i installed the kindle driver thats out there(shows up as android adb device after install) and now after driver install i boot the kf, it recognizes device, then disappears, then shows up, then is gone again. I cant push anything to the KF if it doesnt show up...i cant even quickly push something to it while its in device manager. Suggestions?
You need to use kfu to change boot mode to normal boot.
Or issue the following adb commands:
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
or
fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000
then fastboot reboot

i'm able to issue the command, reboot the fire and both commands work. However im still stuck at the yellow triangle
i'm able to issue the commands and it reboots. However im right back to recovery triangle
i'm able to issue the commands and it reboots. However im right back to recovery triangle
this worked
"- open a (elevated) command prompt and cd to c:\kfu\tools - leave it open all the time
- issue "fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4002"
- it says <waiting for device>
- power off the kf by holding pwr ~20sec and power on again
- the kf is in fastboot now
- install twrp -> "fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img"
- tap reboot on the kf screen
- update fff -> "fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader u-boot.bin"
- reboot -> "fastboot reboot"
- restore to factory partitioning -> "fastboot oem format"
- boot to twrp -> "fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 5001"
- reboot -> "fastboot reboot"
- now the kf boots to twrp and adb commands are available
- test with "adb devices"
- open shell -> "adb shell"
- issue "echo /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file"
- now the sdcard should mount to the computer
- windows will probably respond that the volume/device needs formatted before using it
- choose quick format and let it format it as fat32 block size 4096
- now you can download and copy your new rom to sdcard (ie prerooted stock)
- mount sdcard -> "mount /sdcard"
- exit adb shell -> "exit"
- tap install in twrp and install the new rom
- ignore errors about volume "misc" - the kf don't have a volume "misc"
- on the screen where you return after installation tap clear dalvik/cache
- set boot mode to normal -> "adb shell idme bootmode 4000"
- reboot -> "adb reboot""
