I am running into an issue with the Nook app that I use to read magazines, since almost all the Magazines on the Kindle App are for Stock KFs or Ipads. Anyways, the app works fine after the initial install. When I go back to it later in the day, this is what I get.
I also have this same problem. Uninstalled nook app and the reinstalled it. It works fine after the initial install then gives you an error when you go back to it. Wont sync or allow you to shop at all.

I do have a trouble ticket in for it with nook. Let's see what they say.

After doing the MAC address fix, the Kindle App now thinks I am a Kindle Fire. The only reason why I had the nook app was to get Magazines. It appears to not be needed now.
NEVERMIND. It seems like I jumped the gun. Some of the magazines now are available for Kindle for Android.
So does changing the MAC address on the KFire help with getting amazon VOD? While I'm not a big fan of the Amazon bloat I would like to take advantage of the free month of Prime and the ability to stream videos, but I don't want to be stock to do it.
I think I solved one of the issues. Since I changed the MAC address, I have not gotten one error all day with several reboots along the day. Maybe the nook app used MAC address for something???
To get the magazines to appear right set the lcd density to 180.

Did something just not go through or something?
Because i registered my little bros kindle fire then rooted/installed a kindle fire for him and 4 months later he sold it to my other brother, so i did a complete wipe and isntalled amazons latest update and it gave me another month of amazon prime for free!
The free month is probably based on the user account, if the account its been linked to hasnt had prime before, that would explain it
Did you remove the fire on your account at amazon.com?

I just picked up a 7" fire hd and researching how to root and all I see are version 7.x.x.x.. My device came with 11.3.0.0. Has anyone rooted with this version??
That's the new kindle fire hdx... We haven't even rooted it yet.

I don't think that's the HDX. The HDX has a software version of 13.x.x
With that being said, I don't think there's any harm in trying to root with Bin4ry to see if it works.

Then what is it?
Are you sure its not separated into 11.x.x and 13.x.x based on the different device size? (7” and 8.9”) because a few days ago someone else had the same thing on theirs but I swear it was an hdx because of the resolution size and such, looked different.

You have the 2013 Kindle Fire HD with no camera. This section is mostly for the 2012 KFHD (you can tell by camera).

Its not a HDX its the 2013 no camera model. Is there a section for this model? I couldn't find one.
O that is very interesting, I was wrong, after some research I just found out that for some reason they made a second generation HD model, don't know why the heck the would do that. Guess it was released alongside the hdx models and no one mentioned it? Guess we ha e more models than we thought to try to obtain root on.

You have the newest version of the kfhd kinda like the kf2 is sold as the same product as the kindle fire one. The closest section we have to that model is the hdx section right now. Hang in there I'm sure root will come.

It will be rooted sometime in the near future I'm sure. For now, you can side load the Gmail app, some Google books, Google Magazines and that's about it as far as Gapps go.

In the new version thats not an option (theres not an about option). You can find firmware version in the system update menu and thats about it.
currently its on 11.3.03
I can't even get ADB to work with this version. I've followed the instructions on like 5 different pages and no dice. I even downloaded the entire google sdk and downloaded drivers from the addon page for amazon devices. Windows 7 64 bit. Nothing works. It is incredibly frustrating.
I too have the firee HD 7" 2013 model with version 11.3.0.3. Haven't had any success finding any answers either. I was told this was "THE" place to look for a root option. Guess we will just have to keep waiting. I'm new at this but I have been reading a lot out there and I would like to give a shout out for all the people who make this site happen. Thanks guys.

I have the same Fire HD 2013, can not copy Vending.apk to system\app, no root access.
Rooting has not been verified with the 2013 model Kindle's. It's not recommended yet. When an exploit is found it will spread like wildfire. Everyone sit tight, you don't want to brick your device.

any one try cydia impactor?
Same issue - KFHD 2013
v 11.3.0.4
For now I am sideloading apps installed via Box / Dropbox
Installed Nova Launcher but can't change background wallpaper
Hoping KFHD 2013 gets its own forum soon to avoid additional confusion like I this. My purchase was made after researching on XDA, but the lack of organization failed to uncover the differences.

Some but nothing yet.
I just ordered a factory fastboot cable which will be here by Jaunary 3rd, 2013 (I paid for 1 day shipping, yikes costy). Anyways can someone please point me to the images that I need and what to do with them with fastboot. Thanks, Nathan
Just use this, it does the work for you, assuming this is the 2012 model with a camera, otherwise I don't believe it has the images for the new one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096888

Thank you but can you point me to the system, boot, and recovery.img files?
It downloads them for you off the internet, if you actually just want the images you can get them in kindle SRT utility. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254

Thank you, I run Ubuntu so I need the actual files. I'm not scared to use my keyboard. Also I don't want to deal with the stupid Java JDK thingy. Thank you so much
Now if only the Post Office would hurry up and get my cable to me.
Has anyone been able to sideload the Kindle app on the new Glowlight plus without rooting?
If so, how well does the Kindle app work?
Thanks
