Get back into TWRP and wipe your caches.

If you can't from the bootup using FFF, use KFU's bat.exefrom Windows and use the install TWRP action. If it sees your device, great. If not, it will say "waiting for device". Open Device Manager, reboot the KF and you should get the device detected sound and see "Android Phone" at the top of the tree, which mount and unmount repeatedly. At some point, bat.exe will see the KF, stop the bootloop, and (re)install TWRP, then boot directly into it.

From there, clear your Dalvik Cache and Cache. Reboot and see if that helps. Make sure you select "Normal Boot" from FFF.

If not, get back into TWRP, wipe everything, and reinstall your ROM using TWRP. Once reinstalled, wipe your Dalvik Cache and Cache again, then reboot. Again, make sure you select "Normal Boot" from FFF.

Did you tell it to leave fastboot after wiping?

[Kindle Fire General] ubeezee:
Yeah it sounds like you are still set to reboot into fastboot and need to tell it to boot into normal boot. Otherwise every time you restart you'll be in fastboot.
[Kindle Fire General] biffbarkley:
Thanks for the reply

I had read the previous posts, actually been going over and over the whole HOW TO.

When trying the following command

fastboot -i 0x1949 -w (not in the adb shell)

I get

<waiting for device>

and it goes on forever

Note: seeing the post about making sure the Fire is connected - when I plug in the Fire I notice that the usb in VM shows it for a second or two and then it disappears. On the mac side I can't attach to it at all.

When I attempt to do step 3 again I cannot connect to the adb shell.
[Kindle Fire General] Goosteady:
I think you're getting that "waiting on device" error because you didn't temp root. You need to have the # sign starting your command prompt before you can give fastboot commands.
[Kindle Fire General] Goosteady:
Well now I'm even worse off! adb isn't even recognizing my device anymore (although device manager does) and i'm stuck in the same boot screen but now it never dims like before and just stays fully lit but not moving. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
[Kindle Fire General] yareally:
It's probably in fastboot then, and you're just panicking since you've never encountered fastboot (or fastboot that does not tell you it's in fastboot on the screen). Try running a fastboot command.
[Kindle Fire General] Goosteady:
You're right, I was just in fastboot and freaking out. Below is me getting back into bootmode 4000 and rebooting from fastboot, but upon reboot, I appear to still be in the unmoving fastboot load screen. I think I am stuck in fastboot?!?!

[Kindle Fire General] yareally:
When you ran

fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000, it was all on one line right (and just formatting on the forum causing it to appear that way)?

To me, it looks like you're back in normal mode by the looks of what adb says. Try running adb shell and see if you get a terminal prompt (the $) on the device.
[Kindle Fire General] Goosteady:
Yes, it was all one line and I can run adb shell. Still have the frozen boot screen.
[Kindle Fire General] ubeezee:
If you can access adb shell then you arent in fastboot anymore. Have you tried a hard reset? Hold down the power button for 20-30 secs or so and turn it back on. If this still doesnt get you past the the boot screen to the restore prompt then I would try wiping once more.
[Kindle Fire General] tonyzzp:
i goto fastboot.

when i type fastboot -i 0x1949 -w

it says that :

[Kindle Fire General] Goosteady:
I tried a hard reset and that didn't work. I then wiped it again and still hung up with an unmoving boot screen. I am getting the factory default message from kindle and then it says the reset was successful, but I'm back in the same spot once it reboots.

Below are the steps I have taken. Sometimes Boomsh doesn't show up when I run the ls command, sometimes it does. I am not sure what that program does though.

How did you brick it to begin with?

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------

If all you were doing to begin with is installing some theme thing (which btw, said you may corrupt your device by installing it and should do a backup first, not that you can really do a backup overly easy on this device), then I would grab the framework-res.apk out of the update amazon has on their site for the kindle and push it to your device and set teh proper permissions on it (chmod 644). After that, reboot.

// after doing temp root listed in the OP....

adb shell mount -o remount rw /system

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb shell chown root /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb reboot
[Kindle Fire General] Tylerbman:
I have gone through the whole process twice now without flaws until the final reboot where I get stuck in a boot loop again. Is there any way to write the boot.img to the boot sector, or rewrite all the sectors using the files from the 6.1 Rom dump? The rom dump was posted here: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1295928&page=3)
[Kindle Fire General] Felnarion:
Thank you for this, this really saved me. I was messing with the keyboards and screwed up the permissions, this will get you back for anyone in the same spot. Some of mine looked a bit different, and there were some steps I had to skip for.whatever reason, but it worked in the end.

For my own curiosity, would it have been possible to correct the permissions on the settings.db file? Would that have allowed it to boot?
[Kindle Fire General] yareally:
You can flash boot.img or any other image for your device (like recovery.img or system.img) from the update yes. Fastboot will let you do that if you look at the wiki link in the OP. It should flash fine though it will only help if you think you botched something in the area of the kernel (for boot.img).

system.img would be the one most likely to help but you would have to create that yourself doing something like this with the system directory of the update (in linux):

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK...NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU TOTALLY SCREW UP YOUR SYSTEM PARTITION (in other words, research it more):

$cd <YOUR_PATH>/images
/* creating 250MB, it can be configure as per need */
$dd if=/dev/zero of=./system.img bs=1M count=250
$mkfs.ext4 system.img
$mkdir mnt-point
$sudo mount -t ext4 -o loop system.img mnt-point/
$cp -rfp <KINDLE_UPDATE>/system/* mnt-point/
$sudo umount mnt-point

If that's what you screwed up to begin with, yeah probably. But it gets tiresome to explain how to do specific things to most in this thread since many are not command line savvy (so wiping is a "one fix does all" sort of thing). It's easier to just tell them to do the full wipe, which due to the kindle saving your data in the "cloud" makes it painless enough to do. I also do not have a kindle nor have physically touched one (only experience is using it remotely through adb and fastboot). I am just being nice and sharing my experience and knowledge of how to salvage it from screw ups :)
[Kindle Fire General] tonyzzp:
i rooted it .

and install an input method.

and then replace the /data/data/com.android.providers/settings/database file.

i change the bootmode to 4002

then it can't goin fastboot.

it stoped at the kindle fire words interface.

driver is weill.

but adb doesn't work.

please help me..
[Kindle Fire General] yareally:
Try a different fastboot command then. Like fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000 and then fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot

That won't solve your problem, but it will get out of fastboot.

I can't explain why it wont wipe your data though. I would try googling your error and see if anyone else ever had it before in fastboot.

Please help asap....

Ugggh! I'm having the worst day. Both laptops go down, and now the Kindle is in a boot cycle only when plugged in. Here's the story. I was too lazy to root, so I just went and started pulling apk files that I thought would jive on this thing. Atorrent, some weird gapps ****, go launcher, Google market.....straight up retarded. Either way it was fine, it was low on power, market was not compatible and I just got done deleting some installed apks directly from es file manager. A few moments later it powers down, I plug it in, and now I get green light, boot screen, redlight, boot screen flashes to the lock screen for a second and back into the loop. If I unplug it it just dies. Ni don't think I have the right charger, but its worked in the past. I'm not rooted. Wtf can I do to get this thing back up.....its my moms, I just got bored and was messing with it......ridiculous.

[Kindle Fire General] StarkCity:
Again, I gotta say thanks for helping me sleep last night. Update: Since I don't have the correct charger I can't get it to run in its own. My gtab charger(/USB is Motorola) can get it up and thru the boot but it will not even charge it 1%. But it does run. I'm assuming I need the legit charger. I'm skeptical because this thing has always charged off damn near anything that fit the plug. Are these things really that touchy or should I expect to run into another issue? I realize this is off topic for actually bricking, so if a mod wants to move this post feel free. Just keep me posted.

I have the exact same problem, kindle fire logo continually on in a boot loop. The computer doesn't even recognise it when it is plugged in( in the boot loop), and I am pretty sure it is stuck in fastboot. The computer does recognise the iphone 4 though that I have plugged in. Any help is appreciated
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
Nothing personal, but I can see that you are not a detail oriented person. There is no "android_usb.ini" file and what appears in the image you posted is not "ADB Interface" either. The problem with all this is that the details are what matter. Clearly, you are having issues with the device drivers. You need to go back to the link I gave you last time and follow it word for word and see if you can get your drivers working. It tells you how to do it and what you should see when it's working correctly. If you decide to post again, it needs to be detailed with the EXACT information of what you are attempting to do and what you see on the screen when you do it.

If by bootloop, you mean that it's continually rebooting itself, then look here...

If you mean that it gets stuck on the "kindle fire" logo every time you reboot it, look here for a description of what you should see when you are in fastboot mode.

Soft Bricked Kindle Fire

First of all I am a long time lurker and a first time poster. I am experience with ADB and Fastboot, but for some reason I can't fix this.

Some background: I was running a rooted, ICS-ified, Kindle Fire with a CWM recovery. I flashed a different ROM and later realized that it was only for Team Win Recovery. Because of this it did not run but it DID reboot into recovery. Instead of doing the intelligent thing and restoring a backup I instead fastbooted-up my Kindle Fire and replaced the recovery with Team Win using the following command: ./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and I did put the recovery.img into the platform tools folder.

It sat at "waiting on device" for a long time despite the fact that it had before listen the device when I had done ./adb devices. After about 3 hours or so I ended the command prompt.

Now, I can't boot up it simply flashes the Fire Fire Fire bootloader's logo (the yellow triangle filled with a flame).

I can't fastboot. I can't use adb. Nothing seems to work but I know it is not totally bricked since it DOES go to the bootloader. I have used the Kindle Unbrick Utility and that doesnt work because it just says it is waiting for devices.

I am at my wits end!

Thanks for any help! :)

If you can access twrp or any other recovery software that you had installed, go to it and wipe everything that you can possibly ..don't reboot..make a Rom that wasn't too flash ready I mean just download the rom file of your choice..then flash it..

Important thing you need to do is WIPE EVERYTHING THAT YOU CAN..AND DON'T REBOOT..if at all you reboot without flashing any Rom u end up in bootloop..that can be easily solved..but simply u need not create a problem for yourselves..haha

Just go for ICS roms..if you are afraid you lose Amazon prime membership PM me..if you are afraid that you will lose support from Amazon xda devs support kindle fire better than you can possibly imagine..so go ahead put custom ICS Rom..
