Hello, I would like to know if you are working on any custom rom for the amazon fire hd10 2017.
I ask it because as you have already managed to root the tablet we could use flashfire as in the case of the amazon fire 7 5th gen.
PD: For those who say that first look in the forum I have already done and I have not found anything.
Thanks
I have this Fire HDX 8.9 3rd gen https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BYHTK5Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I recently tried to start Optimum app for tv viewing and it claims it no longer works on my OS version and doesn't provide any other information. I have Fire OS 4.5.2 from December 13, 2014. It was rooted previously with TWRP, but I haven't done anything since then. I think I need to get to 5, but does the 3rd gen HD 8 work or support it? Any recommendations on firmware?
edit
I see that's there's other Kindle forums, but the server keeps timing out on me trying to list them.

Looks like your device doesn't support Fire OS v5
Since you have TWRP, you can flash one of many ROMs (up to Nougat) found here:

Hi Folks,
i have a Fire HD 10 (5th) Gen and well with all the amazon bloat ware on it its pretty slow. I was wondering if its possible to flash TWRP and a custom rom afterwards. I found some threads how to root the 5th gen but nothing on TWRP or custom roms. Any chance to get rid off the amazon mass, to get it fast again as it was back in 2015?
Specs:
amazon fire HD 10 (5th)
system update
fire OS 5.3.6.4 (626533320)
regards,

No root method for Fire OS 5.3.6.4, just try to customize, remove Amazon bloat, and install Google API service using Fire toolbox:

Want to block OTA update using NoRoot Firewall:

Hi there,
I've got a Amazon Fire HD 8 7th gen running Fire OS 5.6.8.0 which I'm trying to downgrade and to attempt to root and flash TWRP with no luck. Does anyone knows a guide to get it rooted or get rid of the Amazon OS and install a regular Android version?
Thank you in advance!

This is not going to work for lem2405 as they provide the hardware and fw version of 5.6.8.0. The link you provided states: "Fire HD 8 7th gen (2017) -- up to Fire OS 5.6.4.0 build 636558520 only" clearly will not provide a solution.
Hey guys,
any update on the issue? My HD10 also runs on 5.6.8.0 and I don't want to brick it. Is the limitation "up to Fire OS 5.6.4.0 build 636558520 only" still valid?

In that thread, the first post says "NOTE: If you are on a firmware newer than 5.6.4.0, a downgrade is necessary, this requires bricking the device temporarily. (The screen won't come on at all)"
after downgrading the firmware through bricking, multiple people have reported in that thread of success un-lock of 5.6.8.0. i suggest reading the last few pages; starting from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-fire-hd-8-2017-douglas.3962846/page-32
Thank you, I just saw this thread and thought, it's over after a certain fw-version. I'm gonna read the mentioned pages and try to downgrade first.
cheers

if urs is HD10 2017 (code name suez), u are better off reading its specific thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-fire-hd-10-2017-suez.3913639/page-66
again there were reports of successful unlock w/ 5.6.7.0 and 5.6.8.0 in the last few pages. BEFORE doing the full bootloader unlock, plz note there could be other way to root access (no TWRP or custom rom though) like this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tut-root-hd10-2017-hd8-2016-2017-easy-supersu.3726443/ or this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/hd-10-2017-offline-rooting.3734860/
check around as HD10 2017 got hacked for root access very early! good luck!

How exactly would you downgrade through bricking?
Hi, how can I root my Fire HD 10 7th gen? I have troubles downgrading it. OS version is 5.7.0.0 . I wanna install a different operating system, other than the crappy Fire OS. If I can, what systems can I install and how?
