Is anyone working on it?

Just out of curiousity has anyone heard of anyone else working on rooting the new kindle fire?
Havnt seen much of any activity on v. 10.1.3 work at all...
I know I can't do it myself so I'd like to know if anyone is even working on it yet xD
Cant wait to get a full port of any android operating system on this thing...
The new kindle fire wont even let you use a launcher so this book shelf thing is looking pretty lame...
Anyways back to the main subject at hand here;
I'm not a coder and I most liekly never will be, Although heres what I can offer; If anyone needs a tester just shoot me a message or post here!
I'm on system Version 10.1.3 by the way.

I am interested on this too. Thanks.

I am confused. What device are we talking about here?

Kindle fire HD 7" has already been rooted. If you are talking about the bootloader, it has not been cracked yet, so no custom roms.
If you are asking about the KF 2nd gen, then this is the wrong section.

This is the right forum....

The KF2 got merged with 7" KFHD a couple of days ago.

Yep posted a while ago, I'm pretty sure they merged them because most kfhd exploits work on kf2

I just rooted my Kindle fire (non HD) using the HD method.
Worked perfect the first time.
Im not a coder or a developer but I got it to work for me

[Q] I don't see any threads for my kindle

Okay, I'm totally confused about my kindle and what guides I should be following. I mean, I see nearly a thread for every kindle but this one. I see a device section for just "Kindle Fire" then "Kindle Fire HD" 7"/8.9" and Kindle Fire 2. I have, from what's on the box, Kindle Fire HD. It's 7", but the "Kindle Fire HD 7"" shown on amazon's "what kindle do I have" page has a camera, and this one doesn't and I don't see any other Kindle Fire HD listed. Any help?
I have volume a power button on one side, a volume rocker on another side. No camera, and a software version of 11.3.0.3.
EDIT: UL'ed Home screen screenshot
EDIT: According to Amazon's adb set-up page it's a 3rd generation tablet.

Oh you have an hdx I think. There's a new forum for the kindle hdx, look for it on the main list of devices, I'd give you a link but I can't grab URLs for forums from within the xda app. I haven't seen any development yet for the new kindle, I wonder if binaries root method will still work or if they managed to patch that. Wouldn't try random rooting methods since the hdx is new and we don't know if there's a viable means to recover it after messing it up.

It's not an HDX but appears to be in the same generation.
I can't post the outside link to the amazon page because I'm new. But, go to amazon then append this after the .com, /dp/B00CU0NSCU

3rd gen should be hdx, also 11.x.x os is not an os used by any of the kfhd's or kf1/kf2. If you said 10.x.x I would say kindle fire 2.

Meh. So all 3rd gen kindle fires are considered HDX on XDA? I mean, that attempted "link" IT shows Mojito as the OS and is grouped with the HDXes but it just says HD on the page. It's an 8gb model and the HDXes come in 16, 32, and 64gb versions.

Yea I think amazon calls the, 4th, but we refer to them as third. Think it was mainly because of the processors used, 1st gen had omap, 2nd gen was omap but with m-shield on, now the new ones are snapdragons.

Might be the remake of the Kindle Fire HD 7 (not HDX). http://www.amazon.com/kindle-fire-hd-best-family-kids-tablet/dp/B00CU0NSCU The new one leaves out the features you mentioned but has 4.2 Jelly Bean, quad core etc.
Any of the newer generation have no exploits yet and it is strongly recommended not to even try any of them of you will kill that tablet.

I am confused
I have the $139 New Kindle Fire HD 7 and dont know what method to use to Root and Mod it.

The problem is the organization on the forum
KF and KF2 should be listed together, KFHD 7", 8.9" , 7" 2013, listed together,and the hdx's have there own group.
If its KFHD 7" w/o the camera its the 2013 version and do not use anything on this forum unless it specifically says 2013 model.

Whick Kindle Fire HD 7 I own?

I have very serious doubts on the information presented on the kindle fire hd.
I purchased this tablet (99€ ) (http://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B0083PWAWU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A11IL2PNWYJU7H) and I do not know if this is the first, the second or maybe the third generation kindle fire hd?
I do not know if the roms in the forum (modding area) refer to my tablet and looking at the site of cyanogenmod.com I noticed that there are 2 versions of the kindle fire, otter and otter2, but nothing for kindle fire hd . To which I must refer to my tablet?
Thank you!
PS. I apologize for my English

If I had to take a guess it is a kindle fire hd 7” 2012 model, and BTW there are 4 code names outside of the stuff that came out this year, they are otter, otter2, Tate, and jem. The 7" HD is a Tate model. I'm only basing this on the fact it was labeled at 7" model, but you can see the front facing camera in the pic that the 2013 models don't have. The HD model's cyanogen mod aren't listed on their website because they aren't official yet, you have to learn the process for flashing ROMs on kindles here because it's not as straight forward as some devices like the first gen kindle, and the ROMs are also posted here at xda in the development section.

I agree with stunts. Also, from the ad "Share your screen with the HDMI output Share your favorite photos and videos on your TV or other high definition screens via integrated HDMI port." The 2013 KFHD7 does not have and HDMI output. Pull down from the top > click more > click on device > now you can see the version you are using. 7.xxx is the Kindle Fire HD 7 2012 model

Excuse the Noobness - Just Used KingRoot on my HD 7

Hi everyone,
I'm a total n00b to these forums and I apologize in advance if I am breaking any rules or if I'm not following the proper protocol for this type of post.
I got an Amazon Fire HD 7 as a gift and I just put the latest version of KingRoot on it. I installed it and ran it ...and it says it was a success so I believe my device is rooted at this point.
My goal is to strip all the Amazon software from the device and install Google Play Store + Apps so that it becomes a pure Android-only device.
Any links or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

You want to be in the Fire HD 6 and 7 forum.. (BTW: You can get rid of some Amazon stuff and install Play Store but nothing can make a Fire HD pure Android .)

Lots of questions buying Kindle Fire Hdx - 7"

I am currently looking to buy Kindle Fire Hdx - 7" - 64gb and have lots of questions on purchase,
Should I wait to buy a different tablet which will be used mainly as an ereader of my color pdf books and magazines running my apps but I want a tablet good for gaming and watching movies as well so how is the Kindle in that regard?
The tablet I looking at has ads and how hard would be to totally remove the ads once rooted.
I want to be able to use the upcoming Fire OS 5.0 with a Lollipop ROM.
Is that possible now and how would it work as a dual boot or would the ROM and OS run concurrently?
Any words of wisdom on getting the right root and ROM for Kindle Fire Hdx?
I dont have tablet yet but seeing there are some conflicts with newest 4.5.3 or 7.5.1 firmwares. The number maybe higher that the ones I listed I just grabbed to numbers from YouTube posters.
Why 2 different numbers I am guessing 4.5.3 is for Kindle Fire Hdx what the other number mentioned?
I want to be able to use this tablet as a converted setup using google play store so how hard is that to add to tablet and what would it break in the process?
I want to purchase this tablet soon so posting now to get some feedback started. If this thread should be placed somewhere else for better coverage feel free to do so.
TIA!

Ok I bought my Kindle Fire HDX 7 and after updating the tablet its now version 4.5.4
I now want to root tablet and use a Lollipop ROM and if needed install I guessing I need to install GAPPS to add google play store and other google apps from what I been reading here or are the google apps installed when I install the new ROM?
So what ROM and Root method should I use and where do I get GAPPS if needed?
