Ok, so I have been able to confirm that using a modified Sony Xperia script, the Binary Root Mothod is able to initiate a desktop restore. HOWEVER, I am woefully unfamiliar with Kindle devices & I have not had time to study the partition structure, so I went no further than initiating the Desktop Full Data Restore mode on the HDX 8.9.
Based on what I have seen thus far, I do believe that root will be possible using existing Binary methods once a HDX desktop backup can be properly modified for these devices. The standard Kindle restore leaves the accept or cancel buttons grayed out. However, as you can see in the attached picture, using a modified version based on a Sony script, allows for the restore selection to be made.

Once I have some time, I will see what I can learn about the method Binary uses & see what files are currently included in previous Binary method backup files. In all likelihood, the root process will remain the same for the Kindle line as previous versions. At this time however, unless you know what you are doing, leave well enough alone & lets see what @Hashcode thinks.

Well at least things are moving here. It's been so sad seeing no development on this thread. I have the KF HDX 7" and willing to offer mine for testing. I've been itching to see at a least root. I also did run the Bin4ry method and the restore reboots but doesn't do anything else.
Really? Unless that's new with the hdx, any backup/restore should work fine. Even if its files are corrupt.

Are you SURE? You know EXACTLY what is pushed in the desktop restore?
I am not familiar with KF Binary or First Aide backup/restore methods, but unless Binary is solely adding the necessary files for root, that could be disastrous. I find it hard to believe that is the case, considering how badly display & performance are affected during the previous HD versions desktop restore methods.

I have manually corrupted files and was able to send them to the device just fine. The restore option was not grayed out, but when you hit that button, it does nothing and just does not restore the data.

Be careful. I can tell you that I was at one point able to get the SU binary into a temp folder & copied into xbin, however, when I tried to get bb over as well, the device rebooted & I have not been able to get any ADB connection since. I have reset & removed devices, used different pc's & even factory reset the HDX. After four hours I cannot get any ADB access period.
You try using a terminal on the kindle and manually restarting the adbd service? I'm not aware of if you need root access to do so but maybe you can get some debugging output or just get it working in general by tinkering with this. For reference try something like
Code:
stop adbd
start adbd
Edit: also at this point you technically are rooted, I'm not sure if u have to have an apk to interface with the su binary, but after trying to help my friend root his Alcatel phone (don't get me started), the thing is rooted but while trying to get it switched from using supersu to superuser I believed superuser isn't functioning but we still have root access, and I don't believed superuser is in the/system/app directory, so point being, if u can sideload superuser and es file explorer you might be able to fix the situation if busy box caused the problems.

Yeah, I've tried just about everything I've ever seen or done to resolve abd issues since 2007. Still a no go. Going to give usb otg a try. Otherwise it's RMA & start over. While the SU binary is in place, I still cannot access it. Calls to SU or trying to open the SU app cause an instantaneous FC & reboot.
I'll tell you though, I really like the tablet. Awesome display & the SD800 w/Adreno 330 flat out rocks. This is totally what the Nexus 10 should have been.
I've also been able to determine that Motorola is the OEM. There are Motorola backup files native to the device at least. I am also going to run this weekend & pick up a 1k transistor, to make a Motorola factory fastboot cable, since I gave mine away with an Xperia tablet. With the factory cable, I should be able to issue fastboot commands. That may enable me to devise a BL unlock.

Simply put.......... get it, or find a different app with root access to freeze it.
We suggest titanium because its the best at what it does, and is worth every penny to a serial flasher.

4. download old market from here, and install

How to put market back in system using titanium backup???
Don't just bluntly delete the apk, disable it! From a root shell, enter
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
There, it's "frozen". No need for a paid app, S-Off or whatever. Just root.
Yeh but not everyone is as fluent as you in adb, damn took me 4 days just to get it setup correctly and now a month later I'm still learning the basics. With TB its a simple long press on the app and freeze but if you don't have adb its a long process installing for first time and then learning the commands.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
4 days to download the SDK and run it? Did you order a new PC in the process?
EDIT: Consider installing ConnectBot or Android Terminal Emulator. That way you don't need adb and the soft keyboard is good enough for the occasional tweak.
Like i said smartass not everyone is as up to date as you may be, bear in mind that i only bought my first android phone 6 months ago, only found xda 4 months ago and have never really tried to hack anything before except a few games.
It wasn't the downloading that was the problem with adb it was the instructions i was following, they were a little misleading as to where everything should be so as i was getting errors left right and centre so i decided to look further into it and realised i was missing things and a few things weren't in the right place, i never asked for help though mate figured it all out on my own and it's perfect now.
All i'm trying to say is the people having these problems most probably haven't got a clue how to use adb or the terminal for that matter as if they did they probably wouldn't be here asking questions therefore giving them the easiest, quickest possible way to solve there problem is best imo.
You're probably completely right about that, sorry for being a "smartass".

I tried that but I couldn't update any app from the market when disabled.
EDIT: it is not because of that but after removing market udpates it behaves strange, seems that I am able to install 1 or 2 updates but any successive update fails. I will try to get the log to see what is the problem.
EDIT2: seem to be caused by low memory
That's odd, mine still auto-updates applications (but not the market itself).

Totally agree. I to this day still have no idea how to use adb or fastboot!!! When I have tried I have failed miserabley lol.
On topic, I personally just deleted market updater from the rom zip before I flash the rom and have no problems with AP updates.
Lol I must be a smarter arse to get away without using sdk, adb or fastboot for so long.

you do not need to use adb. Just open the terminal emulator and type
Code:
$ su
confirm granding superuser priviledges
prompt should be changed from $ to #
Code:
# pm disable com.android.vending.updater
thats all.
you can restore it similarily using the "pm enable com.android.vending.updater" command.

Since every method proposed in the thread over in the General forum to prevent updates doesn't work, even having custom TWRP recovery, i'm reaching out to the developers to ask for help on this. I suspect ADCP is involved myself but have no way to trace it.
What if I set /cache to read only? That apparently is where the .bin gets written to by whatever process downloads it, and from there it's read by recovery. Is /cache used by anything else on a typical Android system?
Not everyone wants to use CM7 but that appears to be the ONLY thing that "breaks" OTA updates. I'm sure there's some link in the chain we could interrupt to stop this creeping menace. I'm sure i'm not the only person with 6.2 rooted sitting here with wifi off!
Just a suggestion, but if you set the folder kindleupdates on the sdcard to read-only (it's where updates are downloaded to), would that break OTA updates?

Unregistered fires will not get OTA updates. Renaming com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apk.bak will unregister your fire but you will be able to sign into and use all of the amazon services individually.

I just went to do that in File Expert, and I don't have a /system/etc/otacerts.zip.
Any other possible locations for that file? I'll try it.
Edit: Found it in /system/etc/security. It has a 1.6kb file called releasekey.x509.pem in it. Renamed to otacerts.bak
Edit2: Just to be safe, moved the file to my sdcard and deleted it from /system/etc/security. Rebooted ok, temp unrooted, Amazon Videos works, my books work, everything seems ok. Note that I am also one of those who disabled OTASilentInstall as well though that doesn't seem to have mattered for some.

Interesting, I wonder if they recently unregistered it,after the update had already downloaded and was just waiting to install. My fire has never been registered and has never seen an OTA, in fact a couple of amazon techs told me that it was unable to be updated while unregistered. Although now that i think about it, I can't imagine amazon techs know anymore than anyone else
Wrong forum... Rename /system/etc/otacerts.zip does help.
this would be great. at least then we could edit the binarys before updating to include FFF and TWRP.
Mine is still on 6.2 with these methods.

Yes, Jayce, but there are people reporting use those methods and still getting the update.
I added another layer of protection, the program Droidwall. I allowed Amazon Apps and Amazon Videos plus a bunch of others but did not allow ADCP. Now if I browse to Amazon App Store, buy an app, it no longer pushes to my Kindle, despite the web page saying just go to the Amazon App store App on my kindle and it would download automagically. I had to manually initiate a download of the app. So either otacerts.zip or firewalling off ADCP disabled remote push of apps -- and hopefully disabled remote push of updates, that part remains to be seen.

new method (not confirmed yet i think)
Kindle Fire 6.2.1 breaks root and you cannot re-root. To prevent this, simply install DroidWall. If you are afraid of downloading the update and want to keep wifi disabled, just do a google search for Droidwall.apk and sideload.
Once installed, launch Droidwall. Make sure the mode says "Mode: White list (allow selected). You will have to manually select which apps to give Wifi access to (I selected Email, Browser, Netflix, and Amazon Video on Demand). You should only select the apps you REALLY want to give access to. Then hit Menu and Apply Rules. Enable Wi-fi, and you should be good.
I tested while running Wireshark and watched the bandwidth according to my Tomato router - no more huge files being downloaded.

Has your log of the app shown you anything?
Where does it log to?
This works if you rename OTASilentInstall.apk to OTASilentInstall.apk.bak and apply the rooted 6.2.1 update. NOTE when you apply the update you have to rename the apk again.

I was using the Droidwall method all day yesterday and today only allowing Netflix, Youtube, Pandora, Spotify, Onlive, Dolphin HD and Market Place wifi access and Just a few minutes ago my kindle was attempting to download and install the update while I was pushing a few apps and I did adb reboot and before it could finish and I'm still at 6.2 but now I've just disabled all wifi access which sucks.

Same err...My WiFi is off.
Until some solid solution is found to stop these forced updates.
After several hours i have finally been able to root my brand new kindle fire hd which came preloaded with 7.2.2. While setting up it updated to 7.2.3 on its own. Anyways here are the steps i took:
Prereq:
1. Download the ADB Drivers and QemuRoot method files. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893838
2. Download Binary v17 Method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
3. Download and install the latest java. http://www.java.com/en/ This is a very important step in which allowed me to succesfully root my device.
Steps:
I recommend uninstalling all drivers in order to start fresh and do a factory reset on your kindle.
1. Install ADB drivers. Extract Qemu Root and Binaryv17 files.
2. Open cmd run as admin and execute runme.bat from binaryv17.
3. Select Method 1 and your kindle should have a screen pop up requesting a restore.
4. Simply tap on Restore on your kindle and it should reboot after that. Kindle will be slow and sluggish. Thats ok.
5. After Binaryv17 is done run qemuroot.bat from Qemuroot method.
6. Choose option 1 to root.
7. Executable should go through different steps in order to root your kindle.
I saw people posting about not being able to root 7.2.2/7.2.3 devices which have not been rooted before. I can confirm it does work if you follow the above steps. The trick that it for me was the installation of JAVA. I kept getting multiple errors when i did not have it installed on my computer. Hope it works for you all.
Thank you very much vida69!
I used Windows 7 Ultimate 64 sp1
installed the lastest Java

I bought my Kindle Fire 7 HD 32g last week, my Kindle was version 7.2.2 from factory, and updated to 7.2.3 (have not been rooted before)
I did a factory reset, *** and then without registered my Kindle with my Amazon account, and the device Language >English (USA), I followed the vida69's instructions step by step.
and my Kindle is rooted

Thank you for this information --although my case is a bit different. I rooted my Kindle Fire HD 7" when I first got it and it had &.7.1.?/3. Put Google play on it, Titanium BU, Screenshot Es, and Root Explorer. Disabled the OTA updates (I did not get affected by either 7.2 or 7.2.3!). However I was interested in trying the 7.2.3. So I downloaded it and did the upgrade.
The update was smooth and provided me with the latest including Swype Keyboard (especially for the Swype Keyboard).
Much to my surprise, however, every single app that I had sideloaded or purchased and loaded from Play after I first rooted was still there! And all of them were functional. Except that all of the "Root-requiring" apps won't work now (Tintanium, Screenshot ES and Root Explorer in the RW mode).
The rest are there, and I can still access the Play store . . . So I will try the root process using your tips, but have no hurry since I have my apps and market too --not bad. Only thing is I will have to get root eventually so as to turn off the future OTA updates!
Really surprised since on my original Kindle Fire, whenever I updated it basically wiped the machine clean. This update was like flashing a rom and not clearing the cache or the dalvik or (especially) not doing a factory reset! I am surprised it worked!
Kindle Fire HD 7" 7.2.3
So i didn't even know my KF updated from 7.2.2 to 7.2.3. I previously rooted 7.2.1. so I already had a pretty good idea of what needed to happen. One thing that I will note is that when I plugged my kfhd in I opened a cmd prompt and typed in "adb devices" when my serial number showed up I knew that I could proceed with the scripts.
Hope it helps.

Glad to hear you we able to re-root. We've got some discussions going as to how to can disable future updates.

I have the same problem. I´ve tried all step that mentions above. :S
Work like a charm for me; no need to do de qemu root, just the root many android did it for me, i did have root access before 7.2.3
Thanks a lot!

Works for me too. No need for qemu. I have not rooted this before and it auto updated to 7.2.3.
First I got permission errors, but after I restored to factory settings I was able to root it. I used a separate computer to do it though so I'm not really sure if it really is the reset to factory settings that did it.
Also, I had to download Android SDK to get the new adb because adb packaged with the root tools can't detect the device.
Success (!)
Hello all, I am a noob to THIS forum. I have successfully rooted according to the above mentioned guideline, but not without one issue.
For all those doing this for the first time, just remember at the "Restore" screen mentioned on step 4 of vida69's post, it would be best that you use a simple password for the restore point, as just pressing "Restore My Device" does not allow the exploit to continue. :good:
Found this out the hard way.
Happy rooting!:good:

The adb.exe replace from SDK solved the issue from me too.

I was having some difficulties doing this last night and I found a solution. Here's some proof that I'm rooted:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

All I did was enter my SDK Manager and installed the following driver: Google USB Driver
Then ADB DRIVERS showed my Kindle Fire HD 7".
Note: I was never rooted before, so people saying that it only works if you were rooted before, that's a lie!

got KFHD rooted in WIndows 8
I use windows 8 and got problem with connecting to kindle fire hd 7" to root.
The adb.exe from Binary v18 does not see my kindle fire ( i installed driver from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893838)
I decided to uninstall the the Amazon adb driver, and installed google usb driver from android sdk.
The adb.exe from Binary v18 still does not see my kindle fire, but the adb from android sdk see it.
At last i have changed something in RunMe.bat from Binary v18, put them all in one folder.
Run the RunMe.bat first then the rootQemu.bat.
here is the file:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/57kOoY4Z/tool_root_KFHD_723_windows_8.html
Sorry for my bad english
Success Rooted again one more time !!!
Follow the steps above, as superuser CMD prompt. Install Java and run Runme.bat then menu.
after that I side loaded Fileexpert to give root permission to move Vending apk and google services.
Due to Geographical Restrication I was unable to use Amazon Appstore. That why I have to use this method.
Now I am rooted with version 7.2.3 user.....and Google market 3.8.17 installed.
For user Outside US use these steps.... even you had new kindle fire HD with preinstalled version 7.2.3.
Anyway thanks to all who make this happens.:laugh:
i have an s5 neo, which for all intents and purposes for now im using as a tablet.
ive finally got it rooted. i went through and cleared out some obvious system apps that i wouldnt use on there (powerpoint, excel, things like that)....
within that little bit i also removed mtp application, at the timei thought it was only purely used for kies, and since i was now rooted i wouldnt be using/able to use kies.
but since then (im guessing, the only thing thats different), i went to use my cable to connect to the computer just to remove some pictures onto my PC hard drive.
my computer sees it, enough to start charging, it knows somethings plugged in, but i cant actually see the phone. on windows 10 desktop or windows 7 laptop.
the program i used is called appmaster uninstaller. it works great on my phone (that i am still using as a phone), the samsung captivate glide. i can remove and restore system apps, user apps, with no problems at all, within the appmaster app.
since i know and trusted this app, i used the same one on my s5 neo. it removes things fine.... but it will not restore anything. it just looks like its loading for a split second, and then nothing. no successful restore message (or failure message!). i tried in my file browser going into the trash folder for appmaster and installing it again via the system installer. it didnt work properly. i have a, i guess you could call it shell/ghost, of mtp application, listed at 0.00kb. but it didnt work right. tried moving it to system/app, still no dice. i *do* in fact have non play store sources allowed on it. i also have tried it with usb debugging both enabled and disabled. it brings up the notification to pick the camera usb setting, or the other (mtp i think) setting... but neither works. my captivate glide lets it work on camera mode so i tried that. but still nothing.
i tried downloading the free version of titanium backup, as ive heard alot about it. i was hoping i could use it to restore the mtp, even if it was from another apps trash. but at least from what i can tell this isnt possible.
How can i restore this, or other, system apps (or any apps), if i wanted to, and have it work properly? i have no issues on my captivate glide at all, it works great. it seems something with the new version of android or soemthing is what stops it maybe? or is it that knox deal? i dont have it enabled but its still there... i thought about removing anything that looks like knox, and then seeing if that was somehow (although disabled) stopping things from being restored?
for now ive done things the long way. remove the case, remove the battery door, remove the sd card, insert into PC, reinsert into phone, reinsert battery door, reapply case. but i would really hate this to be the method i have to use from now on, id much rather just use the cable to transfer things.
can anyone offer any help??
Ive googled and found other people with the same problem, but no solution offered. at least that ive come across yet.
thanks

Uh... Reflash your Rom? Factory reset? I've never even heard of that app, should have started with tb.
Would factory reset lose root access though? I wouldn't worry about that on my captivate glide, but with this one having all that Knox lockdown stuff, would I just brick it to reset it?
Can anyone confirm that with the factory rom (but rooted) that titanium backup will in fact properly restore things before having to reset everything?
I did find a work around with an app to use the cable to connect, but I'd still rather find a method to restore properly if I can. I'd like to even try it first just to make sure but titanium backup doesn't quite seem users-who-aren't-geniuses-but-know-the-basic-functions friendly in its user interface.
I know it's a common enough issue that I can Google about it, but haven't seen any good solutions yet.

Question 1....
Do you know FOR CERTAIN which directory/folder the original MTP app was located in? (on my phone it's in System>>priv-app)
Question 2....
Are you able to source a copy of the original app? (I can provide a copy, but it'll be from a 4.4.2 firmware).
Once you have a copy of the app (provided you know it's original location) it's going to be an easy job....as long as you have root access.
I'm not 100% sure about it's location before, but luckily the app I used does remove properly and so I do have that apk in its recycle bin (I've never been confident enough to just delete entirely.)
I would guess either system/app or system/priv app. I can do some googling to be more sure.
Worst case what would happen if I tried a wrong location? Would it just not work, or is it worse than that?
I do indeed have root access
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
My guess is it would be a case of it simply not working if it was put into the wrong directory.
So, you just copy and paste it into the directory? Or is it more difficult than that?
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
That's part of it, but there is more.....
First you have to locate the correct directory and make sure that any traces of the original app AND it's associated odex file have been removed. To do this, you will have to change the 'state' of the directory from RO (Read Only) to RW (Re-Writable)
Next you have to copy/paste (push) the app to that same directory.
After that, you have to set the permissions to their correct settings (usually rw-r--r--) and reboot (very important step as this will force the rebuilding of the 'new' odex file).

Which program is that that you're using to look at them? Mine, to go into a file manager anyway, all have folders. You go into that folder, there are 2 other folders and an apk, both in app, and priv-app.
So I'm guessing in my case I'd have to make new versions of those folders as well first?
I'd have to go in and have another look but I don't believe I saw any odex files...
I can come back with screen shots if it would be easier
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
I use an app called Root Explorer.....
And yes, screenshots might well help....
Ok, so here are my screen shots. Upon further looking around, in system priv app I did come across a folder that did say mtp application. Inside of it is a folder called arm. Inside there is an odex file.
I also took screenshots of an app I didn't touch for comparing
Hope these help. Would be awesome if it's as easy as copy and pasting the apk from recycle back into that folder. But then I'm not sure if the odex would need edited?
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
@Pawprints1986 just PM'd you.....
This is what I see in the system>>priv-app folder on my device......
There are no 'arm' folders contained anywhere in that location on my device.
For me, that throws an 'unknown' factor into the mix where I simply don't have the experience or knowledge to be able to accurately advise you.
So unless someone else can step in and help, my advice now would be to re-flash the firmware. ....
Sorry fella....

Hmm... Is it a rom vs true from the factory Samsung type difference for the filing? In one of those folders is an odex file, which when I look at roms I see the word deodexed alot, which I'm not sure what that means but I have noticed it.
Or possibly a Canadian vs USA difference for some reason? Maybe a carrier difference?
Do you know enough about things to be able to explain why it is that this device from what I've heard, to factory reset, would lose root and custom recovery. But on my old device it's never been an issue? On my old one I've factory reset, and installed the stock rom, but one time even accidentally booted into the factory reset software instead of the rom, and still never lost root or my custom recovery. that phone is carrier unlocked and I never lost that either. This one now seems more complex. Or locked down.
I was thinking of resetting, reroot if needed, get custom recovery on there right away this time (still haven't tried yet as I'm still learning about boot loader and whether it's unlocked with root or not) and make a backup of that brand new reset, to keep as my "ROM" of sorts, before changing or removing anything apps wise. Is that a good idea to do? The only thing I question that's not on my old phone is the OEM unlock option. If I don't lose root on reset but that gets disallowed, I have a brick right?
Is there some sort of a Knox lockdown as far as restoring apps? That's the other thing that worked perfectly on my other device. This one it removes no problem, but to reinstall things it doesn't want to work. Before resetting I'd like to try a couple of the recommended app remove and restore apps to test them out, so I'd know which to install after reset. Are there any besides appmaster which are free to try? I found titanium backup, but to actually try removing and reinstalling it needs the purchased version...
Sorry, so many questions. Still newer than I realized I guess as far as rooting goes
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
Factory resetting won't kill your root access.....at least it never has on mine.....all factory resetting does is to remove user apps, data and settings....so the worst it will do is remove your super user app....It probably won't do that anyway....and if it did, it's a simple matter or re installing it......
Is the software in your screenshots the official Samsung firmware?
Hmm. So where I read before must be misinformed.
Just now I went looking for where super su stored itself, since it was automatically installed with the root package I wasn't sure. It looks like it made its own folder right at the front of the system. There's a folder just called su, although no apk that I saw.
I know resetting would also reinstall factory apps, but that's kind of the point anyway right now.
Yep my screenshots are rooted official Samsung software.
So, is titanium backup the only other good removing and restoring app? Is there a way to try it with that function before buying it? Since I'm not even sure it would restore properly... I thought for sure my other one would too so I'm not ready to just rely on anything just yet... Is like to try it out first.
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
You have to have made a backup of the app in titanium backup before you can use it to restore that app.....so trying/buying it for this purpose will not help.
Might have to find something else to try it with then... I wouldn't mind buying it, if I knew for sure it will work on this device
Sent from my SM-G903W using XDA-Developers mobile app
No 3rd party app is going to help do this in this case.....any app that restores another app has to have some sort of previously created backup (copy) of that app to work with in the first place......usually created by the app you would use to restore your missing system app. You don't have that app created backup, so without that, you're pretty much stuffed however you try to do it......
I know for mtp I'm screwed, but I was thinking of trying to remove and then restore a different app, with either titanium backup, or another recommended app... Like just to see if it's something weird with the restore function of my whole phone, or just now with that particular system app remover and restore program. Then if I do do a fresh restart, I'd know which app to rely on to restore as well as remove. Can't hurt I'm thinking.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
Well I wouldn't have started the thread if that debloater had worked. I already turned on USB debugging and of course did all the required setup. It just didn't work. It's just....blank.
So I'm wondering if anyone has successfully attempted this method.

With root you can uninstall whatever you don't want.
Without root use adb commands to uninstall apps from the 0 user.
I'm not rooted but I have debloated with this method.
I haven't rooted yet
It's strange, I did everything and the debloater didn't work, it was blank (device connected was red)

I would imagine it should work but sound tedious. I would just install apks from a file manager.
When you remove them unrooted with adb I believe you are only deleting the user profile of the app. I believe it remains fully on the device but instead of being stuck on 'disabled' it removes from the list and uninstalls it just from userland.
Keep in mind without root we only have read access to the system, not write permissions.

can you please have a more detailed instruction, I'm pretty noob with this adb thing
Firstly you need to install adb on your pc, have you done that? If not then just search for adb xda download. Then install and then open file Explorer and find adb folder and open it. Then anywhere in the Open space of that folder right click your mouse and select open command prompt. Then connect your phone (make sure you have lg drivers are installed) your phone screen may ask for security permission for the pc. In the command prompt window type in adb devices and it should give you device id, then type adb shell, then on next line you can paste the 'pm user....' line up to 0' from the reddit link, then after the 0 leave a space and from the pastebin link copy and page the name of the app you want to delete 'com.lg...' then press enter and the uninstal is done. Do that for each app you want deleted.

seems like you had some success's, the failure one's are normally due to those apps not being part of the system, I also had a few failures. and then later on where you have the package manager errors, I'm not sure, maybe just run the process again for those with the error and see.

Which bloatware do you talk about? My G6 has few "possibly unwanted apps" which are easily to uninstall or can be deativated. Else, I would not buy a phone with official Google-Android, when I don't want those services.
Something else, whenever "do not disturb" is on, I have a persistent notification. Is it possible to get rid of that?

Looks like what happened in the middle there is you pasted text that was meant as descriptive, not literal (the "- AirDrive") which crashed the package manager and then subsequent commands failed until it recovered. Start over at the AirDrive line but be careful not to paste that extra text (the Google Duo and Google Docs lines have it too). You might need to reboot your phone first to restart the package manager.
