Root - HD 8 versus HD 10 - Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since there's a working root procedure for HD 10, why wouldn't that work for HD 8?
Aren't these exactly the same other than the screen size?
Assuming HD 8 has the same OS version (5.6.2), which is rootable on the HD 10.
I'm confused - someone please clarify.
Thanks!

Because, apparently, they are not the same.

But if both OS versions are the same number (5.6.2.0), then where would the code difference be?

No worries but you can always install Nova Launcher at least before you sell the device just to try it out.
Waiting for a good stock like custom rom
Why do people not research a phone before buying it? I mean come on, this phone doesn't even run MIUI.

Miui is from Xiaomi and EMUI is from Huawei. Almost the same name but complete different layer.
Can remove apps with System App Remover and install Nova launcher.
As of now, not yet. We just wait. And MIUI is Xiaomi's.

False. The chip isn't made by qualcomm but by mediatek, thus completely different

I just found this on change.org

It's a nougat update request
Don't they know about custom ROMs? Besides, they should've requested for Android O update. I'm sure Huawei won't bother anymore about updating this device.

I think yes. By default, Android phones will have 2 years of life. For the ZenFone Max Pro M1, it will be 2018 - 2020. But the upgrade will not in the near future because Pie builds is not complete and have a lot of bugs.

Fire HD 10 9th (Can I install a fresh Android?)

Initially thanks for any help.
I bought a Amazon Fire HD 10 9th Generation to my daughter, but even installed GooglePlay etc, the system is POOR.
Any chance to install a fresh pure copy of Android on it?
Thank you so much folks!

right now the only thing working is root if on stock 7.3.1.0. But that doesn't stop you from cleaning things up. You can disable apps and change launchers. The only hope is a developer looks into the bootrom for an exploit to unlock the device. You should disable OTA's so any vulnerability wont be blocked by amazon. Hard to say if there is a real vulnerability there, but there is some hope. When you say the system is poor, what would you like to change?

Michajin, I will try this action. When I said about POOR system, because I feel as apps by Amazon retarded the tablet and it's trash unnecessary.
