Hey, people.
Am loving my Note8, but does anyone know why Amazon Kindle doesn't work with Secure Folder?
Thanks!

My brother bought a kindle fire hd 7" from a guy on golsn. After getting home the guy reported it stolen and my brother's kindle won't allow him to do much. After contacting the company they told him he would have to file a police report and have proof of the purchase. Basically my brother is out of luck on that aspect... Does anyone know a work around for this or can at least point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Does it have a password lock if so there's not much you can do if it has a account on it just log it off and make your own Amazon account then it should work fine

No, it has no account currently and it will not allow him to sign up for an account or let me add my already currently working account. It just says error when we try.
Sounds like there's not much you can then

If you buy a factory cable, you might be able to boot the kindle into fastboot and factory reset it. I am not 100% sure about that and maybe someone else can confirm, but I think that is your best bet.
Yes, if I could get to fastboot I could do something. With his kindle fire. Anyone have any idea how to get kindle fire hd's into fastboot?
Hey everyone!!!
Great forum, so informative!! I think I've figured out how to root my new Nook HD. I do have a quick question though. I'm basically looking to root my Nook HD to be able to access my Kindle account and Amazon apps (I wanted a Kindle but I got the Nook as a gift).
Will the universal root work so that I can get Amazon apps & the Kindle reader? Also will that allow for videos from Amazon Prime as well?
Thanks
Maggie

Thanks!!!! I'll let you know what I find out about that, planning the root in the next couple of days!
I've got my 8.9 KFHD rooted and installed the Google Play store.
Is there a build.prop edit that will open up the tablet to some of the incompatible apps that won't break stuff like the amazon store, or the kindle reader app?

The only workaround I've found so far is to download them on another device, copy the .apk from /data/app or /system/app and side load it. Dropbox becomes real handy for this sort of thing. Of course, not everyone has the luxury of having a second device . . .
Thanks That's what I've been doing. Thanks to a rooted Nexus 7 and a Galaxy S 3

Has anyone considered or know if it is possible to build a rom for this based on the stock kindle fire hd? If so I would be interested in trying.

I read this and thought it was sort of a goofy question at first but now you've got me thinking...
What happens if you install a Kindle Fire HD 8.9 ROM on the Nook HD+? For that matter, has anyone tried a stock Kindle Fire HD 8.9 restore? I know there are boot loader differences but I'm thinking leave the Nook HD+ bootloader or (working) custom recovery intact. Just the ROM itself. They're both OMAP 4 based - granted the Kindle has cameras and the Nook has the micro SD slot but they're pretty close to the same hardware-wise.
I'm intrigued to think I might be able to have my Nook think it's actually a Kindle Fire HD 8.9...
Thoughts?
Browsing around on the Kindle 8.9 Dev forum found this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41301028
It mentions there being some secret data related to Amazon registration, along with serial # of the device. Given that, its probably not nearly as simple as getting a stock KF 8.9 ROM running on the Nook. You'd likely need a backup of the partition that post is referencing too. Also, could be that the Nook is using that area for something.
Very complex mess ... If you did happen to own both devices I guess you might be able to make your Nook spoof being your Kindle. Otherwise your best case I can imagine is your Nook is spoofing being someone else's Kindle which Amazon & that other Kindle's actual owner might not appreciate...

Ive been searching for a way to download Kindle Fire specific apps from the Amazon store to my Nook HD plus running cyanogen. Ive been "purchasing" the free Amazon app of the day for weeks, but a lot of them will only run on the kindle fire. You can purchase the app, but you cant download the kindle specific app unless you have a kindle fire.
As an alternative, has anyone tested downloading a kindle fire specific app, and copying the files over to another android device? Would the app still run?
Hello! I am trying to get my Netflix on my Kindle Fire to cast onto my TV. I currently have a Kindle Fire HD 7 (4th Generation) that is running 5.3.1.1. To my knowledge, there isn't a way to root my device with the current firmware that I'm on. If I am able to downgrade to 5.3.1.0, and edit the build.prop, will I be able to use my Netflix with my Fire? How can I make this work? Could anyone give me a step by step on what to do? I am a beginner at rooting and honestly anything Android. I have experience jailbreaking and with iOS, but this is all completely new to me. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you! Also, if this isn't in the correct forum please let me know.
Your best bet would be to post this to the Kindle forum since they would know how best to root and open up the Kindle for hacking.
AFAIK Amazon has limited the streaming capabilities of their Kindles to only see Amazon streaming devices.
