[Q] Challenge: Find me a link, please.

Can I get a link to a thread on a WORKING method to root the KF2 running firmware version 10.1.3? There are thousands of people out there with old versions of rooting that do not WORK. Extremely frustrated. I've wasted a lot of time, and I cannot find what I am looking for in any threads.
I have installed drivers onto my machine and now need to get TWRP to show Online. It says offline all the time and I'm wondering if I simply haven't gained access to the correct version?
PLEASE! Help.

I think you're getting a little confused here. First of all, TWRP never shows online or offline...It's custom recovery that sits on your recovery partition. You're probably thinking of KFU. Second, neither TWRP nor KFU work for the 2nd gen Kindle Fires. You cannot install any ROMs on the 2nd gen KFs, only root them. There are instructions for rooting them, but they aren't anything like the original.

1. Thank you for clearing up my confusion on TWRP and KFU. You were correct.
2. I will follow insturctions on the new root method.
3. I want to make sure: NO ROMs are working yet on the KF2? Thanks, Amazon? Will someone crack that? Are you optimistic?
4. I also want to make sure: this is now bogus? Or never WAS for the KF2? Only KF1? ---> http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/3...kindle-fire-miui-android-jellybean-update.htm

Thank you for the link to the thread, in which I will eventually find what I am looking for.
I now see info in there that is for the KF2HD and that the new ones are locked?
Is there specific direction for KF2's and how to frickin' root them?

The KF2s are the same way. They're already running ICS, so rooting and installing a new launcher is usually sufficient to get a decent tablet experience, but you still won't get the typical ICS interface you might be used to. You won't have any kind of decent recovery to fall back on in case something goes awry, so you should be very careful when messing with files you wouldn't normally have access to. If you do decide to go with a launcher, stay away from the ICS launcher. As tempting as it may be, it has caused a good number of the original KFs to be bricked, requiring the intervention of a custom recovery to fix.
As far as installing any kind of ROMs, you might as well forget about it for now. The motivation for getting past the new KFs security seems to have dwindled quite a bit in the last couple of weeks, and I personally think it's not going to happen, but you never know...

[Q] Howto 2nd bootloader an recovery when on latest 7.4.6 software?

What guide should I follow to install a 2nd bootloader and recovery? I have a 7kfhd with 7.4.6.
Most guides are a bit outdated or for previous software versions.
Should i downgrade the software first? If so, to which version?
I already rooted it. I just don't want to brick it so soon as it is for gift. I have read all I could but I still have many doubts. So I prefer to ask to someone who knows more before I brick it.

OK I will link you to the tutorial but before going through this process please tell me one thing, are you going to put a custom rim on it or do you want to leave the amazon os on it and just have a custom recovery? Because if you follow this guide, your kindle is going to boot loop unless you flash a specific file from kinology instead of one of the files in the tutorial. Here's the link though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271909

Well, I wanted to install cyanogenmod or similar, please advise me. I got this model because I read that it had many custom roms. This tablet is for my parents so I'd like to foolproof it. As much as I've tried the original software I can't find any reason to keep it, it is complicated and very limited, I don't want a stock based rom either.

OK good, that makes thing easier, simply download a ROM of your choosing and the gapps flashable zip that go along with it, and put them on your kindle before you start any of the process in that tutorial. Once you follow that tutorial there is one key thing you must do, check the first check box that more than likely will have red text under it about your bootloader version being to new. If you don't check that you will probably get a red screen that you can't fix without a fastboot cable. That pretty much covers it, just make sure to read through the tutorial, it's very informative. Oh and if you put a cm 11 or cm 11 based ROM, make sure to flash the most recent twrp flashable zip (from the dev section for your device) from within twrp like you would any other ROM. I believe hashcode recently added selinux support to twrp and its required to flash the cm 11 ROM. Any other questions just reply back!

To use fireflash, it really works best if you use fastboot to downgrade to 7.2.3. Hashcode has a 7.4.6 bootimg here http://hosting.crackflasher.com/get.../Hashcode0f/tate/kfhd7-freedom-boot-7.4.6.img (from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848&page=50 ) to use if you're already on 7.4.6 Amazon firmware and use TWRP 2.6.3.1 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848 The firmware your Kindle is on must match the bootimg file you flash.
Just remember to drag and drop which ever ROM you want onto the internal SD card before flashing because FireFlash will flash TWRP as long as you check the boxes the op says to. Stack override for one. You should be able to access TWRP and flash the ROM from there.
Make sure to read that OP a few times so you don't have issues.

[Q] KF7" Refuses to boot past "Blue" Logo

Hello, I have a Kindle Fire HD 7" running the downgraded 7.2.3 from KFFA. Then I used Hash's TWRP 2.6.3.1 + 2nd Bootloader thread to get Stock with TWRP but for whatever reason I can't seem to install a ROM that will boot past the "Blue" Logo.
My screen doesn't do the "White haze" that others have mentioned.
Still boots into recovery allowing for wipes + installs.
I have reverted back to 100% stock then made my way back to stock + TWRP three times now, and have looked rather extensively through any threads even somewhat relative to my own problem.
I've been using the Factory fastboot cable to get into fastboot if that makes any difference.
I have downloaded the GAPPs and ROM twice, and I have a very stable connection that hasn't given me issues before.
ROM is the same as from Hash's thread for TWRP + 2nd Bootloader. (cm-10.2-20131115-UNOFFICIAL-tate)
Have tried my cable from my Note 2, Captivate, Epic 4G Touch, and stock KFHD 7" cable as well as the factory fastboot cable.
Kinda stuck, have gone round like this for about 4 hours + now and I must say, the KFHD 7" has been the biggest pain out of any of my Androids by far xD Great tab though.
Any help would be much appreciated. I could always just run stock, but, I'd really like to have CM 4.3 or 4.4 based on my device.
Thanks!
If I left out anything, please, let me know and I will respond ASAP.

You have no OS and that's why it won't boot past TWRP. Go into TWRP and adb sideload a ROM onto TWRP and flash it and boot into system. You should probably read a bit before just posting. The link answered your question.

You need to check the zip and make sure it did not get corrupted during the download. Goo.img is updating their servers and downloads can be corrupted. Try downloading from the crackflasher mirror. Make sure it is the ROM for your year and model Kindle Fire HD. You also need to update your TWRP to 2.6.3.1 right away, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128848 Before you flash, factory "swipe" then flash ROM then wipe Dalvik/CACHE then boot into OS. Just drag and drop ROM onto internal SD card before booting into TWRP.

Oh boy lol, let me just correct everywhere you went wrong, cause I've tried to be nice, but I can't let you get away with not even reading the OP.
"You never said you could access an OS." ---> "I could always just run stock"
"You simply said you could not get past TWRP" ---> "Then I used Hash's TWRP 2.6.3.1 + 2nd Bootloader thread to get Stock with TWRP but for whatever reason I can't seem to install a ROM that will boot past the "Blue" Logo." (PS: Being stuck at the "Blue logo" is much different then not being able to boot and being booted into TWRP.)
"You need to check the zip and make sure it did not get corrupted during the download." ---> "I have downloaded the GAPPs and ROM twice, and I have a very stable connection that hasn't given me issues before."
"Goo.img is updating their servers and downloads can be corrupted. Try downloading from the crackflasher mirror." ---> That was where I downloaded from the second+ time I downloaded the ROM.
"Make sure it is the ROM for your year and model Kindle Fire HD." ---> "ROM is the same as from Hash's thread for TWRP + 2nd Bootloader. (cm-10.2-20131115-UNOFFICIAL-tate)"
"You also need to update your TWRP to 2.6.3.1 right away," ---> "Then I used Hash's TWRP 2.6.3.1 + 2nd Bootloader thread to get Stock with TWRP"
So, I just copied and pasted all that from you post, and my OP.
So, let me quote you again from another post you made in my thread.
"You should probably read a bit before just posting." READ THE OP BEFORE TRYING TO HELP MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA!!! x'D

I've been here longer then you, just an FYI. Also, your grammar is horrid.

I give back to the community by offering free Android and iPhone modding in my area, and free support via text and email.
Plus I make sure to tell them to check out the Dev's thread or website and to consider donating to the people who make the magic happen.
The only service I make people pay for is electronic repairs which is a flat rate of $20 + customer buys the parts.
So I think I give back to the community at least a little seeing as I have at the least 20+ people a month asking for help cause some idiot installed a unstable ROM on their phone and 4G vanished or other problems.
By the way, since we are laying our d*cks on the table, might I add that boasting about how many "Likes" you have or "Thanks" isn't something to be proud of, you earned them yes, but don't shove that in other peoples faces, that's just childish.
Thanks again for trying to help.

OK before this turns into a flame war, lemme ask something. Did you factory reset and wipe the system partition before flashing the cm ROM?

No, I got Hellfire to flash, but so far nothing else will flash 0.o :/
Also, I did all my restores from KFFA, BUT, I did do a original backup via ADB and did a restore via Fastboot thinking it might have been KFFA but no go still.
And yes, the thread kinda goes to poop cause I was already kinda upset cause this has been the most frastrating Android to work with, and then the pressure got compounded just cause I decided to ask for help :/
If any of this info helps, please let me know, I believe Hellfire is CM 10.1 . . . I believe, that's off the top of my head though.
Thanks!

To be honest I've only installed kinology... Wife won't let me get rid of the kindle os. I didn't really needed kinology but I wanted to update and did not want to reset it up again. He basically ran a neater version of what I was doing.

[Q] Is there a 2nd-Bootloader and TWRP for 7.4.7?

I recently bought a KFHD 7 2013 with version 7.4.7 loaded on it. Root was fairly simple but after reading through Hashcode's and seokhun's threads it seems like the installation for Bootloader and TWRP is updated for up to 7.4.6. I was to install some custom roms to make this device into a full android tablet so does anyone have any info for kindles with 7.4.7?
Has anyone tried and succeeded using the methods in the tutorial for 7.4.6?
Is there another way for 7.4.7?
Please post up if you have any information.

OK put it this way, the current method does work for it, because the main thing to know is we have to downgrade the boot loader first anyways. You can also downgrade the is if you wanted. Anyways point being, the current freedomboot image more than likely doesn't work with that version, but here's the important little bit about that. The freedomboot doesn't really matter as long as you put the ROM and gapps on the device first or Don,t mind going through the trouble of pushing it onto the device with the adb command afterwards when it's in recovery. If the current freedom boot version isn't the same as the os version you typically will bootloop. So yea in short yes it works, just put the ROM you want to flash on the internal storage first so you can flash it without a hassle.

Oh I see the link was missing a hyphen! I need to go to this thread and use the tools provided there. Since Rootjunky.com posted up a really good video to get into fastboot mode I should have no problems getting this to work. After I downgrade I can easily follow seokhun's guide and have CM or PA installed in no time. Thanks a ton!

I hope my question is simple to answer, unfortunally i am a little bit confused about the many versions of the kindle fire and i dont know what tutorial is the right for my device.

surpisingly the answer is no. You can backup the recovery partition and the bootimg but thats about it, the system partition is bigger than the ammount of ram the kindle has, and fastboot stores the image in the ram when flashing, luckily theres a utility that can restore your kindle if it bricks, it flashes a smaller system image first thats incomplete but has enough thtere to get adb shell access, then pushes a amazon ota onto the device and forces it to update thus providing you with the full os.

Help me out?
Hey man. Sorry this isn't an answer to your question. But how did you root your 11.3.2.2? Im just having the worst time trying to find out how. If you'd answer this, you'd have my many thanks.

I thought the old method involving a fastboot cable worked. If not try downgrading the os and rooting it.

I used this german tutorial, but it is only a german explanation of a xda-developers thread.

Its the downgrading method with factory cable, without factory cable it will not work.
To make this cable is not really difficult, so try it. :good:
Hope you understand me. :crying:
