Over the past two days I have been searching and scavenging unrelentlessly for a solution to my problem. Someone got me a kindle fire 7(7th Gen) for christmas and I decided I wanted it running stock android. It came with FireOS 5.6.0.0 and recently updated to 5.6.1.0, last night I was working on it before it updated and I couldn't seem to root it. The root wouldn't go through or it'd fail right at the beginning. After updating to 5.6.1.0 I came very close to rooting and I think it is a solution in the future.

Man that would be great, I hope someone can break Fire OS 5.6.1.0, I would love to run the newest android OS on this Tablet. Would make a great OBDII diagnostic Tool for working on cars. :highfive:
5.6.1.0 can be rooted on the HD 10. I'm told it's rooted with dirty cow via KingoRoot. If the new fire 7s have the same kernel, there might be a possibility. As of now, it appears the HD 10 2017 had an unpatched kernel that allowed for the root. it's something Amazon has yet to fix.
When will we have root?
I have three of these and need root access for them to be worth a damn!!!!
Hello,
I also have a new fire HD7 (7th Gen) with 5.6.1.0.
It is for a kid, so I would like to root it to get amazon stuff away and install Google ones.
Is it still unrootable?
Thanks.

Currently the only rootable Amazon tablet is the HD 10.

Looking forward to a root install on mine keep on rooting.
for a 69$ cost, it would be worth it if i could root and get it to do the things from google play that the fire store doesnt have. Tried two 10ionch ones and i had less than desirable results
How likely it is that this device will be rooted in the future? Look like there is no development for this product.
I’m considering to get one for my kids, but without root I prefere to select another device...
Noticed a few people say they want the root so they can install Google Play store, you can without root on the current Fire 7. Just did, you need to install the framework, account manager app, play services and then play store apk. Working, but quite slow, just got the Fire 7 so may be doing a few bits in the background updating so maybe causing the slowness.. or its just been a long time since i used a £30 tablet.. haha.
+1 above. One of the first things I did was put the Play Store on it. It would be useless to me without it.
The reason I want to root it is to see if it can be any faster with stock android. As it stands it is very slow for almost everything.
Should we stop getting updates at 5.6.1? Is that even possible?

So, currently this thread is very old and I have not touched my "7 in a rather long time. It has been left in a drawer, off. Tonight after work I'll be attempting to root and will be posting my results, whether they be inconclusive or successful, I will post what I know here.

Really hoping you're able to root it.
Just got mine in the mail. Should've researched it a bit more before purchasing but it was only $17 so I jumped on it.
It is extremely slow for a quad core, 720P device with 2GB RAM. I expected it to be much quicker. Does Amazon put that much bloatware or is there another reason it is so slow?

Nearly every amazon app will consume resources. Many will reactivate after a force close. A lot of it is because of the apps.
Ok, thanks for pointing that out. I will probably try that Kindle tool or fire tablet tool, whatever it's called to cancel OTA and remove some Amazon apps.
I've removed most of the stuff etc, but now I got a competely unusable tablet. Tasker etc works, but the lockscreen cant be removed. For motion detection quite bad. Rooting it also doesn't work, but that's nothing new. Should I sell it and buy a 10, should I update it? I was on 5.6.0.0 now I downgraded to 5.4.0.0

If you screwed up, just so a factory reset. Without root a thing you disabled or 'uninstalled ' will come back to life and you can start over. I love my HD 10 but hate it too. Finding it difficult to get a rom to flash. Woo i guess it all boils down to what you want your tablet to do. If you have a fire 7, you will be very United due to memory and what not. HD 10 is so far excellent with memory when debloated.

I want to use it just for a home automation dashboard. Just bought it cause it's been 30€, so I thought it could be a good tab for the wall. With unusable, I mean I can't put it on the wall, because the lockscreen is still there. It would be kinda useless to have motion detection with a lockscreen. And rooting doesn't work, or is there a new exploit? I would really love to root it, then I can finally use it. It's just lying around right now, until it can be rooted. I've removed the OTA update thingies, so no updates will be downloaded. Also it's shut down, so no problem there. I'm on 5.4.0.0 like said, if I have to upgrade to root, I'll do that, but for now, I try to stay on the lowest version possible, so when an exploit comes, I'm prepared
I hate this tablet there needs to be a root. it runs incredibly slow and I think it's because Amazon's apps are running please find a root solution

Amazon just pushed 6.2.1 to devices. It breaks any rooted devices and superoneclick no longer works it gets stuck on step #7 with this error:
export TEMPRANDOM=11153;export PS1=END:$TEMPRANDOM;mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system /system
mount: Operation not permitted
END:11153export PS1=""
Hopefully an updated root solution will be created soon.
I really hope so too.
Ugh, is there any way to block this update? I hate how Amazon auto-pushes and installs the updates.
No practical ways. CM7 might be worth looking into. I believe it breaks auto updates.
Yep, just got an update pushed to my device, and oneclick no longer works. Great.
Seriously, I think I'm gonna return this thing. Get a Transformer, or even just get a BlackBerry PlayBook instead until something better comes out (that I feel is worth dropping a lot of money on).
I've got one for my girlfriend. Same thing happened here too. Update 6.2.1 breaks root

Do not get a playbook! That is the worst device out there! I used it for a day and its just a huge dissapointment. Its depressing to use. I immediately returned it and I never want one even if it is free.
The transformer prime on the other hand is pretty awesome. Ive preordered mine and I'm really excited about it.

I have Amazon update server pointing to localhost in my hosts file. I have not received an update yet. Has anyone been updated using this method?
freeze OTASilentInstall
The first time I switched on my KF about 2 weeks ago it automatically updated to 6.2 firmware as soon as I hooked it up to wifi. 6.2 still allows superoneclick rooting.
Thank goodness I used root uninstaller to freeze OTASilentInstall immediately after rooting my KF (rooting is required for this app). I did not get any forced FW update and my KF remains in 6.2 and rooted.
I guess future new stocks of KF with the newest FW will not be rootable until someone finds a new method. Anyone who just bought a KF MUST NOT hook it up to the wifi immediately, otherwise it will update the FW autonatically, making it unrootable. You should first check the FW version (cogwheel icon in top right corner -> More -> Device -> System version) and see that it is 6.2 or lower. Then you should follow the guide to root the KF, and side-load and install root uninstaller in order to freeze the OTASilentInstall and stop the forced FW update. Then you can hook up to wifi and have fun on the internet!
Keep it nice and friendly.
Thread cleaned.

I did the same but didn't know if it would actually block it.
So far I have not gotten it.
I also have TWRP 2.0 with FIREFIREFIRE on my KF. Not sure the update will work with that.
Wife didn't get the update yet, so I quickly rooted, and renamed the OTASilentInstall.apk to .bak, rebooted, and we'll see what happens. I'm not overly confident about the hosts fix, but within the next day or so I guess we'll see which ones work. Maybe by then we'll be able to re-root in any case.
I'm glad that I went to cm7 hopefully the higher up's find away sound this
Sent from my Kindle Fire using xda premium
So are users saying they cannot re-root at all after the update?
Well I didn't get to mine before it installed the update. Noticed no one talked about what it actually did. Quick look shows there is more to the "more" menu now. Now in settings you also see sounds, Display, Restrictions (what is that about?), wireless network, keyboard. Think these are all new but not sure. Under device, there is now a seperate bar for app storage and internal storage. Seems like Market is not working and root is gone.

Sounds, display, wireless network and keyboard are in 6.2 but I don't see restrictions so that must be new.
I was hanging on to Stock because I thought the amazon prime membership might be worthwhile, but after two painful OTA updates, I'm out.
I had even frozen OTASilentInstall after 6.2.1, but the damn thing updated anyway! I can't account for this, but it did happen.
I'm backing up my stuff now and will try CM7.
For the record, 6.2.2 breaks root and you need BurritoRoot2.bin to get it back. It's a pain and doesn't yet work like the original. (As far as I can tell, you have to reset it at each reboot. Probably OTA rootkeeper will work, but still a pain.)
What was painful about 6.2.2? You can easily root it again.
I gave up on stock a long time ago lol. Running ics now.

yes, you're right. I rootEd again long enough to install CM7.
I'd just had enough jumping through hoops getting my hardware to do what I wanted it to do.
I wish companies like Amazon would understand they would do better to cooperate with users than to fight against them or treat them like fools.
Agreed, I stayed with stock after the last update and root, but not again. I guess I didn't think it would happen again so fast.
I'd drop stock in a hot second if I could get the gameloft 'Kindle Fire Edition' games to run. Sadly there's something I'm missing in the system that keeps them from running in CM7.

It's been said numerous times that freezing OTASilentInstall does not prevent updates. Also Amazon isn't trying to intentionally break your root..
this one prevented ota for me two times (6.2.1 & 6.2.2):

Yup. It is a pain.
On the other hand. Now that I finally flashed CM7, it's fantastic! It essentially solves the issue in one fell swoop.
It seems to me, it all comes down to how much you plan to consume Amazon's services. If little to none, then CM7 or some other rom is the way to go. If you have or want a prime account, etc. then you have to deal with the workarounds.
Fair deal.
The only thing that kept me off of CM7 is the video issue relating to audio sync. Video is around .5 to .75 seconds ahead of audio at all times on Netflix. So right now I'm running the MoDaCo stock ROM, which I don't know if it will prevent OTA updates or not, but paulobrien gives you a pre-rooted, odexed ROM that's ready to fly. Then I just use a different launcher, and it at least FEELS less stock-ish.
A little lost....I am currently rooted, If I receive the 6.2.2 and root breaks....exactly what will I need to do?

I used this thread and got Order And Chaos working on CM7, runs perfect. Also, almost all the gameloft apps I was looking for showed up on the market.
The ONC I bought on the Amazon Market doesn't show up and I didn't try that one since I had picked up ONC on Android Market for .99 during the sale at New Years, so I don't know if KF edition will run. You may have to purchase them a second time.

Oh, yeah, I had been using Go Launcher Ex with an ICS theme and was pretty happy with it.
The thing is, I had spent so much time setting everything up and the update undid a bunch of it, not just root. Plus it revived a lot of the bloatware I had already gotten rid of. It was enough to push me over the edge.
I backed up if I ever want to go back and I may also consider MoDaCo which looks good. MoDaCo with OTA protection would be very tempting, indeed.
I do give Amazon credit. What they did with KF, they intended to do and they did it well. It's just that I'm an inveterate tinkerer so I need my freedom! I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir here on that point.

My search-fu is weak this morning and I've not been following development here since I don't have a Fire, but ones of my wives friends asked me about rooting her Fire. I said I would check and I found the BurritoRoot3 post here which seems to work pretty smoothly. When the Fire first got root I kinda remember reading that rooted devices lost access to the Amazon streaming. I'm not sure I'm remembering that correctly so I thought I'd ask. Before I go ahead and root her Fire I would like to know if rooting breaks access to any of the Amazon services?
Thanks,

Rooting the Fire will disable the Amazon Video App as it specifically looks for Superuser. Here's what I did. I rooted mine, installed Market, downloaded (and also sideloaded) all the apps I wanted that were not available while locked down in stock mode and then used OTARootkeeper to temporarily unroot the device. Doing this gave me the best of both worlds.
I'm running GoLauncher EX with Market and a bunch on non Amazon approved apps AND still can use the Amazon Video service. You can also choose to run the stock launcher at any time.
OTARootkeeper will allow you to reroot with just a click to add more apps later.
All other Amazon apps and services work fine under this method.

Which made no sense since the "Guide" doesn't have info in it. Normally a "Guide" provides the information about the topic it is about, not asking for info.
Obviously it's a work in progress.
I wrote everything I know and I'll put in more when I know more.
So, I looked at my HD+ this morning. It updated the firmware. First thing I saw was an ad in the notifications. Didn't B&N advertise the HD/HD+ as having "no annoying ads"?
Additionally, the book I was reading was back at page 1 when I opened it. Good thing I had a bookmark. How hard is it to save the page I was on before rebooting with the new firmware?
Sent from my Infuse 4G using Tapatalk 2.
Could I please ask, what version is the firmware? 2.0.4 has been the most recent version for quite some time now, and is the version I'm using. It doesn't have any ads anywhere across the device. However, I'm assuming you have something more recent than 2.0.4.
Indeed, yes I see your frustration. I would definitely be if I didn't place a bookmark in a page.
Could I ask, is your Nook HD+ rooted, and Google Play installed, with a different launcher than the stock? If not, I would totally recommend it. I wasn't fond of the idea of rooting and so on, but after doing so, I'm now able to enjoy many of the Android apps and features; especially games such as Angry Birds which is originally free (you have to pay for it from the B&N store).
After rooting, I'm not the only user of the tablet. Haha, I'm not even the main user, my Dad, and brothers are. (I actually gave the tablet to my dad)
It's 2.0.5, check at the end of the thoughts, tweaks and hacks thread. Should be close to this one.
I'm not currently rooted. I have sideloaded apps. But a week ago my Nook mysteriously reset and I haven't sideloaded apps back to it. I will once I find my flash drive with my Linux/adb environment (boot able flash drive). I'm too lazy to make adb work on Win7.
I have CM7 on my Nook Tablet, and Paranoid Android on my phone so I'm not a stranger to rooting.
Sent from my Infuse 4G using Tapatalk 2.
So. The new firmware isn't the cause of the ads. I bought an app from BN.com and it is the cause of the ads. I paid money and it's showing ads.

Unblock It. Game is decent entertainment. Worth the $2 I spent, but I uninstalled it because I think PAID software should be ad free. I wouldn't mind ads if the app was free.
I was restoring my Kindle Fire HD 7 to stock so I could send it in for a replacement. As I was about to factory reset and send it back, my Kindle updated to 7.3.1!
Anyone know what's in this update?
I blanked out some info like the serial number and my name in the screenshot (if you are wondering what those boxes are)
You are the first to mention it on here.
This is a Kinology HD using XDA Premium
Doesn't appear so
According to Amazon's "Kindle Software Update" page, there is no indication that 7.3.1 has been released.
Have a look -> http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_left_sib?ie=UTF8&nodeId=201016350
My thoughts are something has gone wrong, you managed to do that accidentally, or you purposely did it (NOT blaming you just an option that I have to keep in mind, it could've been a joke and that's your sense of humor and that's fine, you do what you want).
I SERIOUSLY doubt that Amazon has yet to update the page before sending out another update. If someone else has this as well and proves it then we can all be a tad more sure that this is legitimate.
EDIT: Amazon has updated their software update page to 7.3.1, definitely confirming its existence.
Yeah I was confused as well when I couldn't find anything on the Amazon site. No I am not pulling anyone's leg either lol
I double checked my 'old' HD7 (that I am about to ship off to Amazon) and it still says 7.3.1..
This auto update happened on my old device a couple of minutes after I did this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235403
My replacement device is at 7.3.0 (auto-updated from 7.2.1). Since 7.3.1 doesn't show up on the replacement, I've got to believe that something went wrong when I flashed 7.2.3 to my old device.
This don't make any sense at all :silly:
Edit
Another person has mentioned getting the 7.3.1 update on the Amazon UK forums here
I also had a chat with Amazon customer service (I love these guys ).
They confirmed that
it is a limited update that is being pushed out incrementally.

kindle fire hd 7.3.1 update
Hi I am new to the site and relatively new to the kindle fire hd. I have just had (about 15 hrs ago) the 7.3.1 update and have experienced a few problems since. I had root access and google play working no probs. But did not stop the kindle from updating doh! Since the 7.3.1 update I have carried out the whole rooting process as before ( or at least I think I have) and everything went smoothly and root checker claims I have root access. I then reinstalled the necessary files for play store. But google play store will not run. ( says google store has stopped).
I have also had problems installing apps sourced elsewhere since.
I have concluded that this 'limited update' has tightened up security. Or have I simply messed up the rooting process.
Any advice would be appreciated
Thank you
Go into the development section and learn to install 2nd bootloader its made my kindle so much better plus i now use kinology rom fixes so many problems i had with original kindle os. It will get rid of non working play store

My 7" fire hd has just upgraded to 7.3.1, lost the root option but just re-rooted using binaryv18 and it worked a treat.

Great news!
Did you feel any improvements?
I am, SOOOOOOOOOOOO, glad they fixed the battery drain issue. It now stays charged over night.
