Hi,
I have a 16GB Kindle Fire HD 9". It has been running PACMan 4.3-Build 1 for about a year. I do have fire flash 1.1 installed.
I'd like to upgrade it to 4.4. Could anyone recommend a stable ROM (no need for cutting edge)? I've used PAC Man because of the Hybrid feature. So would prefer a ROM with such capability though I did hear that it's now available as a module.
Thanks
I have Fire HD 7 5th gen, and i currently using it with slim 5.1.1 beta unofficial Rom..

Just to be clear, the tablet I believe you are referring to is the Amazon Fire 7" (not HD).
As of right now, the answer to your question depends on which version of FireOS your new tablet ships with. If it is a version lower than 5.1.3 then it can be rooted, before installing [ROM][UNOFFICIAL] CM-12.1 [20 Apr 2016]
FireOS 5.0.1, 5.1.1 or 5.1.2: Root it using the SuperTool by carefully choosing the correct options corresponding to the exact version you have.
FireOS 5.1.2.1: Download version 5.1.2 from this link and downgrade to it using the apply update from ADB option in stock recovery, then root it using the SuperTool as above.
FireOS 5.1.3: No method of rooting this particular version has been confirmed (yet).
Warning: Do not attempt to downgrade from 5.1.2 to 5.1.1 or from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1 - doing so will brick your device.
You may also want to consider an alternative ROM for this device, such as one of these:
[ROM][AOSP] Fire Nexus ROM - LMY49J [20 Apr 2016]
[ROM] SlimLP 5.1.1 for Amazon Fire 2015 (Ford)
[ROM] Resurrection-Remix-LP-v5.5.9 Amaz�³n Fire 2015 (Ford) (17-12-2015)
BTW, similar questions have been asked recently here and here.

Is there a good chance it will be 5.1.2 or 5.1.2.1

Some stores like Frys and probably Microcenter have them in stock. I bought one the other week and it was 5.1.1, no shipping fees either.
Hi, I've got a brand new Kindle Fire with 7" screen (the 59$ tablet), which was shipped to me with Fire OS 5.1.2 last build 31 March 2016. What alternative rom can I install on it? What guide do I have to follow? Thanks!
All of the ROMs available from XDA are located in the Original Development section.
