I keep my R1HD as a backup phone. $60 and it runs better than the VivoXL, which I returned, because it sucked. I'm on a Nexus 6P now.

Thanks Guys

Can someone help me recover it? Is there no RUU?
I've just downloaded the update from o2 but haven't installed as yet. I'm glad I noticed this thread before I installed it. Did you do anything different when trying to install it? I know you said you are stock but have you ever rooted or put custom recovery on? Or is your phone completely untouched?

I have never rooted and always been stock. Now I don't know what to do and info online is vague.

Hi sorry mate the only thing I could suggest would be to ring o2 and ask them. I'd assume that you would have to send it in for repair/replacement. An update shouldn't do that as far as I know.
EDIT: Decided to take the plunge and installed without issue. Now on 4.3 sense 5.5 software 3.62.206.1

They stopped the rollout because it was bricking encrypted phones. The OTA was captured though. You can install it yourself from here if you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/dro...ota-official-marshmallow-build-mcg24-t3512813

Well I'm glad but I'm new to this so not sure how to proceed if I get wrong software I can break it. So that's why I'm asking for as much help as one can give so I don't brick the crap out of my tablet.

You could try, but you will brick the device. The locked bootloader will not load anything lower than 5.3.2.1, and we have no way of unlocking the bootloader. No root and a locked bootloader means no custom ROM or kernel.
That said, there is a way to install the Google Play Store even without root, on any firmware. Check out the supertool thread. Once you have the Play Store installed, you can use that to install all kinds of whatever apps you want.

Alternatively, one can sideload (free) apps obtained from reputable sources such as APKMirror. However, installing Play Store/Services offers additional functionality and convenience.
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.
