Kindle fire stuck in stock boot screen.

- Start date
So what have you done? It doesn't list options to switch into recovery mode when you reboot?
What commands from the thread you have have you tried?

When I launch KFU it say ADB is online, but doesn't recognize the boot status when I plug in the kindle.
From your kindle though, can you switch to recovery mode? I had that happen a few times. I don't remember the fix, except to completely uninstall all kindle fire drivers and reinstall them. When you boot your kindle, does your computer show it as an unrecognized device?

No, my computer doesn't recognize the kindle. and the kindle just flashes on the "Kindle Fire" boot screen logo.
OK, I would definitely go with a reinstall of the drivers then.

where can I find the drivers?
Go to the start menu, right click on Computer, select Manage, and it should take you to the device manager. With your kindle plugged in, right click on whatever device it says your kindle is, and select uninstall drivers.

It doesn't show my kindle, I tested to see if it was the cable, but it shows my lg g2 when I plug that in but not the kindle.
So have the device manager open before you plug in the kindle. Then plug the kindle in. Something should change, and your kindle should show up as a kindle, an android adb device, an unrecognized device, or something else.

Ok, You could also launch USBDeview to remove all drivers that look like they are for your kindle. In your case, you may end up deleting a couple of drivers for your G2, so you might want to be careful.
-----EDIT-----
So here's a link for the files you need to run USBDeview. Don't worry, you don't need to install it or anything, and this comes from an application similar to the KFU, but meant for Nexus devices called the Nexus Root Toolkit from the Nexus 7 thread.
Also, sorry for the delay, I just had a lovely 2 hour nap.

says it's malicious, chrome won't let me download it. Sure it's safe?
I'm positive. If you don't want to download mine, just head over to the nexus 7 forum and download the toolkit. I isolated just the files you need so you didn't have to download everything, but if you feel that's safer, then go ahead and do that instead.

Downloaded it and ran it, and there where no drivers for the kindle.
When ever I try to install it, it fails when it tries to install the Google inc. (WinUSB) stuff.
It gives a red "x" and just closes.
Try installing it with administrator privileges. If that still fails, let me know.
