Hi, I know what to look for before asking.
I would like to know, if someone has a download link of the version Fire Os 5.3.2.1 for the amazon fire 7 7gen
I ask it here because I've looked everywhere and I can not find it.
Thank you very much

I don't believe Amazon publicly posted that build which came preloaded on the initial wave of 7th gen devices. 5.4.0.0 was the first downloadable build for the Fire 7 (aka 7th gen).

hello,
is it possible to install android 4.1 on a kindle fire 2.
i tried the kfu utility, it says ADBnline, but boot status keeps unknown.
so i am not able to root it.
greetings,
evert-jan
There hasn't been a kindle fire utility made especially for the new kindle fire so that explains why you might be running into errors. Try using it again. Do you have the newest version.

Yes i tried the latest version. No luck
Take care!
I may take your Kindle Fire 2 into brick!
Kindle Fire 2nd gen is so different from 1st gen!

As the post said before DO NOT USE KINDLE FIRE UTILITY FOR KF2. IT WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!!!! You're lucky you didn't have the right drivers as they are different from the ones in the KFU, or you would have definitely bricked your device.
You can root the KF2, Its been possible since a week after it came out-

Do we have a wiki for the fire HD/fire2 yet? Just curious because I have had some free time lately.

Did you ever care to look trough the current forum posts? You are asking questions discussed here for hundreds times. Please, make a small effort to educate yourself before asking anything.

Hi Timurg,
Sorry, but i did look at the forums. The only thing i found was the KFU (for the kindle fire 1st gen) and a rooting tool for the Kindle Fire HD.
So i understand that the rooting tool for the Kindle HD is also usable for the Kinle 2nd gen?
Greeting,

Yes the root tool does work for KF2, most things that have worked for the HD will work for KF2. That said not everything that works for the HD will work for the KF2 as they do have slightly different software.
Not to be a **** but, the posts above are right everything you have asked about is in these forums, you just have to dig a little deeper.
This thread will help you with the Play store-

As for running custom roms, no, its close but not yet. The closest thing to android feel you're gonna get is using an alternate launcher-

Hello I am new to these forums and I have looked everywhere but can't find how to root and turn this kindle into an android tablet. I have a kindle fire hd 3rd generation 4.5.2 serial number 00D2 0708 3522 07L8. If someone can lead me in the right direction i would appreciate it greatly and thank you for your time.
Please all I ask is a simple answer if it's rootable and where on this forum can I find where to root this device
I'm after the same with no joy
So do you think there is no root for this version yet?
Can't be done

Only for soho. If you try to do it on another device it'll probably get bricked, so don't.
Darn
I purchased the KFHD 7 for my daughter after reading a bunch of good reviews. Didn't realise it had the crappy proprietary Fire OS on it until after the fact. Can't wait until someone figures out a root method to set her free!
I have a Kindle Fire HDX 7"
Bought this kindle fire a few months ago thinking I could root the device which I did ok. Then I went looking for instructions to install Google Play Store and Google Play Services as I hadn't had to install Google Store before. That was a few weeks ago. Since then my kindle has updated it's system to 4.5.2. After that I couldn't root the kindle at all never mind installing Google Play on it! When will someone figure out how to root this kindle and install Google Play on it! I am passing the point of no return with this kindle. If I meddle with it any more it will be unusable!!!!! Grrrrrr!

Please tell us how you rooted your Kindle. I guess many would be happy to root it in stock condition and then disable updates.
I read it has a Mediatek board. Have you tried MTK droidtools?
How did you do that?

Finding a bunch of reviews that don't mention that the fire locks you into a closed ecosystem is quite a feat. And none that do mention it. Kudos for the finessed search skills. Well done!
Reading reviews not noticing that Fire OS may be a bit different from stock Android...
Anyways, has anybody yet managed to root the KFSOWI 4.5.5 version without the special cable?
Someone told me using KingRoot (normal app) may help but it doesn't work for me. There MUST be some skilled developer being able to root it easily...
Does not work on kindle fire 3rd gen. tablet.
best option for now
Best option for now, would probably be to downgrade your os before this one and disable updates till this one is rooted. i found the update file versions. Im gonna try it now.
Hello,
i bought the kindle fire HD 3rd gen from 2013. I rooted it, but the update to OS 4.5.5 removed the root permissions. Is there still a way to root it or do I have to downgrade it? If I have to, how can I do it? I only found tutorials for other devices or OS.
You're in the wrong forum. Try here:

But I don't have the HD 6 or 7, just the HD-Version without cam and with dual-core-processor.
This forum is for the $50 7-inch 2015 (5th gen) fire tablet.

I agree. I have a 4th generation as well. I've been rooting devices for years but I can't seem to track down anything for the 4th edition. Any help would be appreciated.
