Got the triangle screen and following instructions in guides are not fixing it. Heres my scenario. I got my kindle with 6.2 on it. Got it rooted, installed market and go launcher and was great. Then the update of course came thru and broke root. Still been able to download market apps and use go launcher. So I followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417284
to regain root and install twrp. It says root is successful, but superuser force closes everytime trying to open or use it. I can open my tibu and root explorer and everything still gave me root access. Went and changed the MarketIntentProxy.apk to MarketIntentProxy.apk.bak so market links go to market by default. That worked. Noticed that all amazon apps downloaded have a default amazon icon. Thought nothing of it. Went to install twrp anyway. Stuck at triangle now. Followed all instructions to fix and the KFU keeps flashing error device not found constantly and boot status unknown. Not showing up in my devices but I can eject via the safely remove hardware program. What happened? Did everything as guide states and watched the videos as I was doing each step.

Hey Everyone -
I got my Kindle two days ago and decided to root last night.
I first upgraded to 6.2.2 and then followed the new directions for rooting.
After some hiccups getting the computer to set up ADB correctly (ran into some conflicts with the drivers installed with my Nexus) I got everything working. I followed all the directions provided and installed superuser.
Here is where my problems begin...
I side loaded root explorer but I can't switch the file system over to R/W. When I load up the app I never see it requesting root permissions or see them granted. The superuser log is 100% empty.
When I load up OTA RootKeeper in order to try and watch prime videos I see the following:
Superuser app installed - checked
Device rooted - checked
Root permission granted - unchecked
Filesystem supports root protection - checked
Protected su copy available - unchecked
It seems to me like my device is somewhere between rooted and not and I can not for the life of me figure out what to do next. I can't install the market, OTA Rootkeeper won't work so I can watch prime videos. I lost functionality and gained nothing.
Any suggestions?
hmm...
thats kinda what happened to mine, i had root explorer but not superuser. I just restored it back to factory settings and re-rooted it, and now it works just fine with no problems. Good luck!
I have a problem with superuser that I can't understand.
So I bought this new Samsung Galaxy Note 3, and I rooted it by flashing my phone with Clockworkmod 6.0.4.5(1116) with Odin, and then installing UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip through the recovery window.
To be honest the process didn't go ideally smooth. Since I misunderstood how to proceed with the process, I had to reinstall Clockworkmod a few times.
After finishing from that, I started trying to use software that needs root access (like LuckyPatcher), and lucky patcher was hanging at the beginning black screen and not proceeding. And I tried many other programs, and they always don't proceed and stop.
So eventually I went to the Application Manager and select Superuser, and chose to "Uninstall updates", and only then, all those Superuser prompt messages started popping up asking me to grant LuckyPatcher and all other software that tried to access root... and since I chose to Uninstall updates, the phone restarted.
Of course, after the phone restarts, we're back at square 1, but the programs, to whom I granted root access get root access for some time...
I tried updating Superuser from the market, but when the program starts, it says "The Superuser binary (su) must be updated.", and I have a option called "Recovery Install", when I choose it, the phone keeps showing a message saying "Installing Superuser..." and it never finishes. Yesterday I left it and went to sleep, and eventually it gave an error message. I would say that Superuser update itself requires root access which it couldn't get... but that's as far as I know. I tried the "Uninstall updates" trick but it never worked.
Also I have to say I tried to install Superuser versions 1.51, 1.60, 1.65, 1.80 through recovery with a zip file, and it didn't fix it. And I installed CrashROM from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535355
and it didn't help either.
What do you think? How can I repair that and have normal Superuser permission asked normally? Please advise.
Thank you.
Any help, please?
Problem solved
The solution was to specifically install SuperSU from the market and not superuser. That fixed it.
I received a new ADT-1 yesterday and I turned it on and went through setup, it took an update of some sort at that time, the device is currently at LPW39. I used the npjohnson method 1 to root my device, this went fine and stopped there last night.
Today I attempted to sideload some apps using the guide that Webstarr posted, sent ES File Explorer and Sideload launcher to my ADT-1, both showed up but when I try to open Sideload launcher it never opens and an error message comes up stating that Sideload launcher and stopped working. When I attempt to open ES File explorer the screen looks like it trys to open the app but never does.
Also I started getting another error message during boot of the ADT-1 that says "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.location has stopped.
I checked and had a 192.0 mg update so I used SuperSU and removed root to take the update in hopes that it would fix some of the issues I described, I start the update and about 25% into it I get the error on the install screen. It sits there and then reboots back to the main screen and all is as described above. So I have access to everything stock but seem to have some strange issue with the sideloading and the location processes and I still have that 192.0 mg update to take that fails every time I try it.
Thoughts on where to go from here?
I decided since my ADT-1 wouldn't take the OTA update without erroring out that I would side load it and see if that worked, used the molly-LPX13D-from-LPW39.zip.
Well it didn't, here is what it returned. Can anyone give me some guidance on what I should be doing to fix it?
Es File Explorer and the Sideload Launcher can be sent to the Adt-1 directly from the playstore but I think it has to be from the Chrome Browser.

I downloaded Kingroot today, ran it & achieved ROOT. SUCESS! If I had only stopped their. I downloaded Rootchecker Pro & it said I had Root. Great. Then I uninstalled Kingroot & installed SU from the play store. SU tried to update the Binary & failed over & over, reboot, failed over & over. THEN I did some reading & realized you cant delete Kingroot. I figured I could just re-download & re-install it & get ROOT again. During the process Google Security popped up over & over & I accidentely clicked Enable. Kingroot said it was installed but at the end of the apk Process where it usually says "DONE" or "OPEN", Open is Grayed out I cant click it & Kingroot isnt installed. I cant get it to install now. Rootchecker now says Root is not Properly installed. I went in to Google Settings & turned off the App Security, I verified I have Allow Apps from Unknown Sources checked. I can NOT get Kingroot to re-install so I can have ROOT again. Any help will be much appreciated. Would a FDR allow me to re-download Kingroot & Install it? I dont want to FDR but I really dont want to do it if its not going to help me achieve ROOT. Thanks Jason T
I've tried various root methods without success, last one worked BUT was unable to access the play store, "my files" section or the basic package installer, making it imposible to disable the knox security log for the notification issue and everytime I successfuly root it I can install busybox, supersu and root checker but beyond that I am unable to proceed further. When I restarted the phone it stays stuck in the att boot logo while vibrating from 2-3 times on a loop.
From that point on I have to wipe memory/cache and start all over again...
I Started up the phone without supersu but even that it has factory reset, there is lag from the phone.
anyone help?
I'll post device info
there's also a problem I found myself trying to fix the first problems after rooting it was a "dm-vareity verification" problem, son't know if I spelled correctly but that was basically what it said
Thanks In Advanced. :laugh:
