I used a procedure recently published in CNET Review. Google for "root kindle fire hd cnet reviews". Use the top link. Very clear and worked flawlessly for me.

If you can get into TWRP it's real easy. The tutorial is well written.

[Q] What to install first? FFF or TWRP? (Kindle Fire HD 2nd edition, 2013 version)

This tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1638452
says: Install TWRP and then install FFF using TWRP.
The TWRP website says:
teamw.
in/project/twrp2/79
(with less then 10 posts i can not add urls, so please combine the above lines to get the full URL)
install FFF first before installing TWRP ("You must install the Fire Fire Fire utility before installing TWRP 2.2.0")
What is wrong?
Or does the TWRP sentence only apply for 2.2.0 and not for the most up-to-date version (2.7.0.1)?
the fire fire fire utility is for the original kindle fire not 2nd edition

What bootloader should i use for the 2nd edition (2013) instead of FFF 1.5?

Oh, seams like i missed that FFF 1.5 is not for 2nd edition (2013).
Hm, when FFF is only for Kindle Fire HD 1st edition (2012).

sorry for the wrong forum, i did not realize that "list all forums" is not ordered by name (i simply did not expected to finde more "kindle" forums spread around that page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php?tab=all).

No worries, just don't use the wrong firmware, you could brick your device.

Tate = 2012
Soho = 2013
So, my Kindle is a 2013 version = Soho
My kindle is the one without a camera, most IT articles call it "2nd edition" or "2013 version".
As i read some posts in this forum i get the impression that there is a 1st (original), 2nd (tate) and a 3rd (soho) edition. What is right?

os version is 11.3.2.1 (stock, but rooted)
OK so it is a 2013 kfhd, so this device has no custom ROMs or ability to have a second bootloader installed, you only can have stock rooted.
