Is any one know a boardid in kindle fire HD
it's mean you can't flash new rom in kindle fire HD,
It's been locked
4.0
rumor said it is ICS.
wish it could be jelly bean.
I want another ROM for Kindle Fire 7" (4th gen), but I can't find any.
I've currently followed the guide [here](http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/how-to-upgrade-to-lollipop-root-gapps-t3163950), but I am not very satisfied with it. I am now running Fire OS 5 and using the 5.2.2u2 bootloader.
Is there any ROM recommended / how do I use the current ROM (e.g. CM 11)? Also, if I use ROM like CM 11, which version should I use, and what bootloader do I have to flash?

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.
