So, here is what happened. I was trying to install CyanogenMod 12.1 on my Kindle Fire HD 7 (tate). I used the official guide on CyanogenMod's website, and I got up to the point where it wanted me to reboot into TWRP recovery that I had just flashed. I entered the command "fastboot -i 0x1949 oem recovery" like the guide had said to do after flashing the older bootloader, freedom boot, and TWRP, and it went back into fastboot mode. At that point, I knew that I had screwed something up. I unplugged the fastboot cable and rebooted the kindle using the power button, and then the kindle fire logo would loop. Can someone please help me out with this? Thanks! (If any of that didn't make sense, please ask and I will clarify!)

I am running cm 10.2.
I tried to update twrp via the twrp app, my kindle shut down and loaded in to fastboot. Now every time i turn on the kindle it is stuck on fastboot please could someone help me
Interesting, never heard of that happening from a bad twrp flash, only bad kernel flashes. I would just try restoring the os with kffa and see if it will get past the initial kindle logo instead of going into fastboot, if it still doesn't I would try reflashing the boot loader. If it gets to the point you need to try reflashing the bootloader, i cant stress enough to check the md5sum of the bootloader file beforehand so you don't end up with a hard brick. You could also try two simple things first one is "fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot", the other is "fastboot oem idme bootmode 1” might be 2 not positive, followed by the previous command if it doesn't auto reboot.

Try
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
Thanks
KFFirst Aide sorted it out, thanks for the advice.
I've been using Unofficial CyanogenMod 10.2 for the Kindle Fire HD 7" since it first came out without any problems. Basically, I just upgrade it with TWRP every time Hashcode releases a new version....well it finally didn't work. His thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2388341
I flashed the latest version, [11/15] BETA CM10.2 + 3.0.50+ KERNEL two days ago. It got stuck in boot so I rebooted successfully. I've been using it for 2 days now and finally rebooted. This time when I reboot, I get stuck on the Kindle Fire blue logo. I can't do anything from there. I can't get into TWRP.
What do I do?
Restore stock from fastboot, I believe with 2nd boot loader installed you can simply plug the device I to your PC after running "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" and it should goto fastboot and u can restore stock boot loader, recovery, and os from kffa and restart the process. I think people have had issues with this lately or at least something similar because of selinux being added to twrp and cm 11. Just a guess though.

Thank you! Uh...so I ran the fastboot line and I've got the fastboot logo...but I'm not quite sure how I should go about restoring the stock boot loader, recovery, and OS as you've said. Am I basically factory resetting? Will I be able to get my backed up ROM back?

Well, you have a couple options. If you're in fastboot then you can opt to to a full system restore. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254
If you can get into TWRP, you can push a ROM (or a nandroid if you have one) onto TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2459498 You always want to pull a nandroid off your tablet every now and again for just such a case.
I have kfhd7 and i updated it from cm12.1 to cm13 but after the reboot it is now stuck on white-blue "kindle fire" logo. everytime i reboot it shows the white-yellow logo and then gets stuck on the blue one. moreover, i cant get to twrp3 using keys as it gets stuck and device gets hot.
Tried fastboot and adb but the devices is shown offline. I dont have access to a fastboot cable and even dont hope that i will get one shipped sooner. kinldy help
I've been trying to fix this for 5 days now I've been reading through forums for hours and I've now come to this I need some real help...
I have a Kindle Fire HD 7 store demo model..
I'm trying to root it and get rid of the store Demo restrictions
This is as far as i could get.
I used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254
To try and get back to factory settings but this didn't work.
I'm stuck in boot loop now ending in a red triangle screen telling me kindle couldn't boot correctly.
I have a fastboot cable so i can get to fast boot.
What I've been thinking is maybe I need to root first before anything in the above post will work but I'm not sure on that.
I haven't been able to discover my kindle in adb using cmd while in fastboot.. Not sure if that is possible in fastboot anyways.
So my real question is how can i either root my kindle in fastboot and flash twrp
I've tried to flash twrp a few times and it seems to have worked as far as cmd but when i get to the device nothing works.
I'm not rooted and I believe that to be the first step can anyone help me?
Please help..
If you don't have 2nd boot loader installed you can't install twrp and have it work... Also you don't need root for fastboot to work which is all that system restore tool uses.If it's in fastboot and it's a 7" model then it should have appeared in the device m,manager as a Tate device once you entered fastboot. Switch to a normal cable once you are in fastboot mode. Once that happens run "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" and see if it returns anything. If things still go nowhere I suggest trying an Ubuntu live 13.10 CD/USB stick. Tell me how it goes.

I have a Kindle Fire HD 7 for repair for a friend it was stuck on the Kindle Fire logo.
I think it's the 2013 version as it doesn't have a camera.
I've tried the KFHD_SRTv1.3.5 and Kindle Fire Utility. It goes through all the actions installing the file etc but when rebooted it's now goes to red screen then FastBoot, even without a cable plugged in.
I've tried the info in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466243
I enterd "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" and got SOHO-PVT-PROD-07
I tried
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot and it reboots straight into fastboot.
I've tried going through the actions again but nothing seems to work. Is it bricked or is there hope?
You are lucky you haven't hard bricked it, those utilities aren't meant for it, especially kindle fire utility, that could have hard bricked it. There's a utility in the general section for restoring it, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2685090
That should be able to restore it.

I was attempting to fix an issue with a family members stock Kindle Fire HD 7 (2012). Since I wasn't having any luck with the stock reset I was attempting to load TWRP so I could just load the latest amazon stock ROM that way. I followed the instructions from CMs website but at the end instead of booting to recovery I did a fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot. Now I'm stuck at the yellow Kindle Fire screen and it just loops over and over. I have a motorola fastboot cable but I've issued the fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product and it just says waiting for device.
What are my next steps to get out of the bootloop?
Now that the battery has died I now can't even get the device to boot. Any ideas?
