My 5yr old son was playing with a stock kindle fire and brought it to me saying it stopped working. He was correct because now it is stuck in a boot loop at the kindle logo. Is there anything I can do to fix it. Sorry in advanced if this has been a topic before, at work not much time to search. Any help would be appreciated thanks
You need a fastboot cable and the system restore utility. Here's a link to the utility:

Once u have a fast boot cable just ignore step 2 on that link, its kinda confusing but your fast boot cable basicly does what step 2's commands do, but those commands require the kindle to be fully booted.
Also wanted to check since I have seen a few rogue posts, is this a kindle fire 7", 8.9", or kf2., or somehow a kf1? That link I used is for HD 7" so if its another kindle please tell me or it will brick it further.

Wow u beat me to it by a few seconds, I used this method but if u don't follow it word for word u will end of with a red screen and need a fastboot cable. Another piece of advice, if your flashing your boot loader make sure u check your md5sum on the file before flashing it or you may have a paperweight by the time your done.

Hi, I am very new and I really need some help I was trying to install a custom rom but something went wrong.
Waht I did was.
I first rooted my device,
then I installed the second bootloader TWRP
And I forgot the wifi on, so thw kindle fire HD updated itself and eliminate the super user app.
So I restored the kindle fire hd to ist default in the restore option in the main manu.
then I root it again,
and try to instal the second boot loader again,
but after I installed the second boot loader it never boots up into the kindle fire hd system,
what happends is, in turns on, appears the kinfle fire letter in orange, the aperars kinfle fire letters is blue, then kinfle fire letters in orange again, whit a animation, that use to appear when is about lo load the system, then it reboots itself and repeate the entire process but this time goes into the TWRP second boot loader.
I think I could fix it by just using the backuo files I made o I coul install the custom room I want from there, but the problem is that I cannot load any file to the kindle fire hd because when I connect it the pc it shows as ADB device. Please help me out with this. I would like to you help to restore it to stock or tell how can I transfer files to my kindle fire hd when is in TWRP mode.
I already tried the mount option on the TWRP but the pc does not recognized it as a portabla device where I can store files.
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
If you're in twrp, you can sideload your rom from the advanced menu, as long as your device is recognised as adb.

Hello,
I have a Kindle Fire (2nd Gen) running on firmware 7.4.6, is there a tutorial on how I can root and run another OS
instead of the Kindle OS?
Use this to root it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Use this to get 2nd boot loader + twrp installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271909
Two important things you should note, one is put the ROM and its corresponding gapps on the kindle's sdcard ahead of time or you may suffer a boot loop and have to push the film manually into twrp. Second is when you open fireflash, make sure to check the first check box, it should have red warning text under it. If you don't check this box you will reboot to a red screen and it will require a fastboot cable to fix. BTW you might wanna fix the thread title since this is a kfhd not a first gen kf1. Only reason I can tell is because of the os version. Kf1's have a completely different method to root and flash since they don't have a high security processor that checks the boot loaders signature.

I am assuming you have a KFHD 2nd Generation (firmware 7.x.x). if thats the case, then follow these...
You will need a fastboot cable (aka factory micro usb cable) unless you have a way to put your kindle in fastboot mode. Get one from fleabay
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254&highlight=device+not+found and download the KFHD_SRTv1.3.5.zip utility
Use option 3 first to push recovery img to your kindle followed by option 1 or 2
After it completes, you will have rooted ver 7.4.3 on the Kindle
The thread also has links for rooted 7.4.9. You can dl those images and replace them in the utility folder (images) to get a rooted v7.4.9
The KFHD 2 is on a different version than 7.x.x.
