So, I'm running software 6.3.1(stock), and I wanted to root. So, i followed a tutorial that said I should install TWRP recovery after I root. But, dummy me, tried to install TWRP recovery on a stock kindle fire. After a couple of minutes of installing, a console message appeared that said that the program told the kindle to boot in fastboot mode. Well, after 10 minutes, the Kindle was still not booted, so I disconnected it from my PC. And now, when I try to turn the Kindle back on, it just stops at the splash screen. I'm thinking that it's bricked, so can anyone help me get this fixed?

1. I successfully rooted my Kindle Fire HD a month ago. Two days back when I tried to install Nova launcher, something got screwed up, and
it got stuck in the nova luncher loop, after a hard reset it got stuck at yellow kindle fire logo.
2. I tried to correct it via KindleFireFirstAide utility via option 3. Completely restore KFHD 7 7.2.3 <fastboot>
Everything was going fine until my internet got disconnected during the system.bin download.
Now it is stuck at Kindle fire system recovery, which comes after a kindle fire(yellow) then kindle fire(blue) logo.
Reboot your kindle
Reset to factory defaults, wont help and keep repeating after every boot up.
Moreover, neither windows nor ubuntu live detecting the kindle usb connection ( no ding sound, no device manger information)
I think the usb utility in kindle is gone.
How can I get the kindle working back again?
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Is it stuck there or can you pick an option because I would save myself the grief and just reset it.
Fixed Via $2 factory cable
Good news,
I got a samsung chinese usb cable, done the factory cable tweak and connected it with kindle.
And TADA!!! got into fastmode, restored from backup via KindleFireFirstAide utility.
NOw its running the stock operating system.
Yesterday I tried to re-install twrp and I guess I missed a step because it's stuck in a boot loop now. I get the "Kindle Fire" logo with no animation, it stays on for about 10 seconds and then restarts and does the same thing (logo for 10 seconds and reboots). The computer doesn't detect it period so I can't do any adb or fastboot commands. Am I going to need a factory cable to fix this?
Kindle Fire HD 7"
That's the first thing I would recommend. Once you get it, use Kindle Fire First Aide to restore the stock bootloader.
Hello and good morning.
I am writing here, because I have a big problem. My Kindle Fire HD (first Generation) does not start any more. After an update (Cyanogenmod tate) I only get the yellow Kindle fire logo. And after few seconds the Kindle starts again. Then - after about five minutes - everything is dead. But if I do a reset I get the same situation. Unfortunately I get no connection to my device via the computer (tried Windows 7 64 bit and Ubuntu). With adb devices I cannot detect my Kindle. Is there a possibility to get into fastboot to install CWR etc.?
Help me, please
Herbert
So to clarify, the first time the logo comes up it freezes and then resets itself, followed after about 5 minutes the kindle just shuts itself off?? Also, you ask about getting into fastboot to install CWM. Do you not have a recovery installed? Such as CWM or TWRP?
I installed TWRP version 2.6
But I also cannot boot into the recovery (Power on & Vol +). Then nothing happens. I actually have ordered a fastboot-cable. Maybe I have success with this cable. Otherwise it is finished for me.
Yea try booting into recovery and flashing the system images to get back to stock. That's all i can think of since i'm not entirely sure what happened, either you got a bad download or your kindle just flipped out and essentially bricked itself.
Hey guys. Awhile back I installed cyanogenmod onto my parents kindle fire hd in order to give them a speedier experience since the stock rom was starting to get slow. It worked great! until my mom decided she did not like this OS anymore and tried formatting the device from within the OS. Now whenever I try to boot it up, it shows the red fire logo and then the blue fire logo but then goes into the TWRP loading screen. Here, it just keeps flashing the TWRP logo and won't let me do anything. The adb status is offline. I tried using the unbrick utility to no avail. Any suggestions?

You're going to need a fastboot cable. You can find them on eBay. Once you have that, you can push a new recovery image and rom to the kindle and flash it. Then tell your mom to read up on this site before tweaking!
The story goes:
Last week I rooted my Kindle Fire. I used a YouTube tutorial and successfully achieved root. The YouTuber also recommended installing TWRP, so I thought heck, why not, and went ahead and did it.
That's where everything went wrong.
I decided to unroot my Kindle, which went fine, until I got to uninstalling TWRP. I heard the only way to get rid of it was to flash the stock ROM, so I did. When I flashed it, I got an error, and my Kindle just shut off. When I try to turn it back on, it will power up and show the screen with the Amazon logo on it and that's it. Tried again and again, and yet it stays on that Amazon screen and doesn't move.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
I am having the same issue. Updated kindle fire 6 hd 4th gen to 5.0, downgraded to 4.5.3. Installed king root, rooted device, installed flashify, flashed twrp, rebooted. Now I am stuck loading. If plugged into a computer loads to the amazon logo, shuts down, loads to the logo repeat.
I have tried to fast boot by correcting drivers in device manager for the mtp whatever and constantly spamming the fast boot string.
I have used adb to see if a device ever loads and it doesn't.
Windows makes teh sound that a new device is connected for about 15 seconds then will make the noise that a device has been disconnected as the fire reboots.
