hi, kindle fire is my first tablet and today i've decided to root it. in the developer sub-forum there are a lot of post about how to root the fire... the question is: is there a standard procedure to root it?

No, probably not a standard way. I have done two, one using this method with the changes for 6.2.2 (burrito2).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417234
The information in the video description gives information on what you have to do differently for 6.2.2
I also rooted using the KFU, but that script also has to be modified to support 6.2.2 and you need to have the burrito2.bin file.
I believe the new way to root is using burrito3 but I can not speak from experience on b3, never used it.
allthrough it is mainly about driver you can do all the things you want with kfu
look at this post to avoid potential problems:

It was removed because it is based on stolen work.
Guys, I contacted jcase to make our plea & after initial digging, he kindly got with xda member fi01 & we now have root, once it was compiled by Besups! It only took them 2 days, probably less, but I contacted him this weekend & boy have they come through!
Read the thread, hit thanks & make sure these greats know how much they are truly appreciated!
Three cheers for fi01, jcase & Beaups!

This is great news! Just in time for the long holiday. Is this flashed through stock recovery? If so, how do we get to it on the HDX?
Sorry if this is a stupid question
I'm new to the Kindle scene (but am loving my HDX 8.9). Does having root mean that I will be able to install the Google Play Store?

YAY! I guess I know how I'll be spending this evening when I get off of work! Thanks to the developer for the getting us root! I've been a creeper around the XDA community for quite some time (since the Droid X) and have really appreciated all of the support.
Great job,thanks to them.hope custom firmware will be available soon

Cool! Looks like a little more help might be needed for the HD7 (2nd Gen), but it's a start.

guess i can go ahead and buy the kfhdx 8.9 4G on either black friday/cyber monday and have fun for the holidays!!

yipeee!!! hurrayyyy!!!
Versions
Just to clarify the version situation, the Kindle Fire HDX 8" is 14.3.1.0, and the HDX 7" is 13.3.1.0
Did root access fix the issues with wallpapers and widgets not working or is it more complicated than that?
Great news, do you think this exploit can be modified to root the kindle fire 7" HD 2013? Holding thumbs here :good:
Any word on root for hdx 7?
He's working on it. Go to the dev thread and see for yourself.
Thanks. I am keeping a check on it :fingers-crossed:. The time posted on the forums is not correct so i do not know correct time stuff is posted.

Thank you!
Thanks, kindle is perfect.
Just in case Amazon fixes the exploit in an update I have blocked the update servers from getting through my router.
The IPs below are the update servers in case anyone else wants to block them.
Code:
72.21.194.208
176.32.100.136
72.21.195.233
If you have a dd-wrt router just add this to your firewall
Code:
iptables -I FORWARD -d 72.21.194.208 -j DROP
iptables -I FORWARD -d 176.32.100.136 -j DROP
iptables -I FORWARD -d 72.21.195.233 -j DROP
This is wonderful. Please don't forget hdx 7". If you need any info please let me know

Look into the Android development. Root for HDX 7" is already working for me. ADB method worked like a charm, even though it does not seem that way from what the command prompt says. Use the root checker. A very big thanks for everyone involved.
Just a little advice for everyone. You may need to install superuser and busybox from 1mobile.
