The UNROOT
If you wanna unroot your device, why so ever, the easiest way is to use Unlock Root (Link above) open it, connect your phone via USB, enable Debugging Mode and click unroot. If you wanna unroot it, e.g. to be able to send it back to LG on warranty, better use the method below, to unbrick your device with R&D tool.
Because like this, you will get back an unrooted device, which has also been hardresetted. So LG will hardly/never get a clue, that it has ever been rooted.
Dont forget to format your SD card as well

That's from my how to, but I think I should correct this. Use Smartflashtool and flash the latest version available for you. Do a factory reset from within settings menu and everything should be fine
I've been a heavy user of Android for a few years, and flashed several roms, mods and kernels on my LG P500 and my friend's phones. But this phone is a bit different from the other ones i've used, and my budget is a bit low, so i'm afraid of screwing up. What i need is to somebody to help me, with the requirements i need and the process of rooting this phone. Any help of someone who is already rooted would be appreciated. Regards, AnonymRocker.
Just unlock the bootloader and use this tool
http://www.batakang.com/ftp/RAZRi/RootUtility/RAZRi_Root_Windows.zip
Hi TheAnonymRocker
For this phone I tried several rooters but the one that worked was the TATAZEUS mentioned.
Install Drivers and simply execute Root.bat into the zip. Tested on 871.111.20003.XT890.Brasil.en.BR. But Works on 871.111.20003.XT890.Brasil.en.BR too.
To unlock this phone visit Motorola website to request unlock key. Lost Warranty but not the updates for phone.
I'm going to try this method once i get home. Thanks for your help!
Do i need the drivers to use the root tool? And if i screw up, can i possibly brick it?

Yes you've obviously got the root access but you've gained it from the previous version of ics. The last version wouldn't allow rooting without unlocked bootloader as it could be assumed from the experience of those who tried to root upgraded razri.
Ok, i got hone and tried to unlock the bootloader, but when i tried to enter the fastboot command, i got this:
"$" is not a valid command
Can anyone help me?

Nope, rooting is necesary to give some apps elevated permissions. If you want to change your firmware, you must unlock the bootloader, and the use a tool like RSD Lite to flash a new firm over the actual one.

If you get a factory cable and follow the instructions in Hashcode's 2nd bootloader thread, verbatim, you will not have any problems whatsoever. I have several friends and family members with KFHD7s that have asked me to "work my magic", and in every instance, I have always used that thread as a reference and I have never run to any problems as a result.
Thank you! By factory cable you mean one of those fast boot cables right? And just to make sure you mean this thread right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848

Yes, and yes. Good luck.
Do not forget: put a custom ROM on your SD Card before you go through with flashing TWRP, you cannot boot into stock ROM, you will loop into TWRP. Be ready to flash a custom ROM when you get into TWRP.

I've used this thread here twice and it's worked both times. I never had to downgrade and didn't need a fastboot cable.

Drop it right on the root of your internal storage. Just the same as an mp3 or picture, drag and drop.

Technically, you can drop it where you want outside of the system folder. Dropping it into the storage as a whole (not a folder) makes it easier to find. To find the rom, you'll just scroll strait down to it while in TWRP.
Got it done guys works and looks great ! Thank you for all your help! !

never mind, figured out what was wrong - in the "Part four" step, I assumed that documentation has not been updated and was trying to flash with 'boot/11325-boot.img' instead of boot/11310-boot.img. After changing to boot/11310-boot.img it seems to work

Hmmm...this is not confirmed to work with the Kindle Fire 11.3.2.5 though
Hey guys. I have a Kindle Fire HD 7 D025A (1st gen I think? 2012 release) that was rooted a long time ago and had the Cyanogen os put on it. Its become very unstable (reboots a lot, launchers crash, etc) and I would like to restore it back to the way it came from Amazon. The unfortunate part is, I am a total newb at this, and I wasnt the one who rooted it originally so I have no idea how it was done. Can anyone give me a step by step guide on the correct way to restore back to the original? Been trolling websites all morning, but with as many different releases of kindle as there are out in the world, I want to make sure its done right.
Thanks in advance.

Umm ok, thats more confusing than anything Ive ever read in my life. What is fastboot? I installed the android sdk thing it called for, but fastboot nor adb is an executable. I am a complete and total NEWB. Have never done anything like this before.

Bleh, that was annoying. So finally got the stock zip to work. Had to wipe twice in order for it to boot into something not TWRP. Thank you very much btw and sorry if I seemed a little short. Im a computer guy by trade for over 20 years, but this programming and hacking stuff has never been my cup of tea. Finally into the basic default setup pattern now.
Ok, so now that Ive been shown and taught how to return this Kindle to stock, can you show me a list of all the custom OS's I can put on it? I know Lineage doesnt support it, and I know Cyanogenmode has a version 14, but I want something that will continue getting updates.
