[Q] Kindle Fire HD 8,9" 7.4.6 - Qemu rooting - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to root a Kindle Fire HD 8.9" running version 7.4.6 using Qemu.
The Kindle is already recognized as an ADB device using the necessary drivers. The Issue occurs when I run Qemu.
Without admin privileges it starts the whole reboot cycle but does not have the necessary permissions and fails
With admin privileges it gives the error that "ADB is not a recognized internal, external command, executable program or batch file"
How can I get past this?
Thanks

You need to run Root by Restore first, I have never personally had to use Qemu, root by restore has worked for me everytime!

Oh Windows with your stupid drivers and topheavy system...
You need to remove your current drivers and install the HDX drivers from Amazon's website. I don't use Windows, so that's as far as I can help you.

Do this root apply to the s8-50F ?
EDIT: This method indeed does work on the S8-50F variant. Was having problems with device staying in adb while running program, but a reboot of pc fixed that and gained root effortlessly. THanks!
Glad It Helped !!!

The download isn't working for me. It's not downloading as a zip? Any suggestions?
If youre using windows, download a program called 7-zip and downoad the file. right click the root software and click extract here. or open with 7-zip. You could also use winrar. The format of the file is in .7z right ? that means search up http://www.7-zip.org/
Any idea how to unroot?
Not sure. Have you tried the full unroot method in the su app?

Thanks both of you. I ended up returning it, root and all, but I'm sure your suggestion would have worked.
After rooting, has there been anything anybody's been able to do about battery life? I don't imagine there's been any Roms built for this device yet, but didn't know if maybe someone's figured out something that's helped extend their battery life, because when playing certain games like clash of clans for instance, I'm lucky to get an hour and a half of game play, and that's with my brightness turned all the way down. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

This root guide works on s8-50f! thanks Xakep
This is a very easy and usefull root instruction, i rooted my tab s8-50f with no problems.
I followed the steps described and got instant root without any issues.
My machin is windows pc with windows 8.1 pro 32bit. Plug your tab and windows recognized the drivers just make sure your device mngr shows lenovo s850 and you are all set. Then just run the flash tool and it will run in less than a minute your tablet will reboot and your tab will be rooted.
Yes this is probably the easiest I've ever rooted any device in the past. If at first it doesn't take, don't worry it will. Just repeat the process till it does. Thanks Hash.h for putting up this thread and passing along the info

Where can I download the ADB drivers for S8-50 from?
I think drivers come with tablet. Try to connect the tablet and it will show CD drive on which is the driver.
error: device offline?
I followed this with no luck. I have adb installed and running "adb devices" shows the tab connected, but when I run the tool "error: device offline" scrolls repeatedly and no root.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Worked great. Thank you.
Awesome little tablet.

Tried on another computer and succeeded.
This worked brilliantly...
but then I upgraded my firmware using the in-built system and it de-rooted. Now the exe no longer works.
New firmware is S8-50F_S000200_150121_ROW
Exe -appears- to run well, but appears to fail on the last command. Unfortunately it disappears off the screen before I can check the exact nature of the error. It appears to go fine until the final attempt to copy the SU binary into place fails with a 'File not found' error.
I've also tried the other method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/guide-lenovo-s850-row-t2927400
The flashtool fails to find the device (I know the drivers are installed), so I'm unable to install the new boot image.
ADB shell fails
mount -o remount,rw /system
with the response
mount: Operation not permitted
so none of the 'push' operations will complete as the /system folder is read-only.
Any suggestions?

Same problem here. Lost root after the last update and now I can't get either root method to work.

[Q] Kindle Fire HDX ADB Problem...

[FIXED]!
Hey guys, I am having some trouble working with ADB with my kindle fire HDX 7". I have dev options enabled and ADB Debugging. But when i connect my Kindle Fire HDX 7" it does no show the drive on my Mac but Android File Transfer reads it fine. So, thinking that it is fine I install ADB and Fastboot. But, anytime when I try to locate my device in ADB (adb devices) it doesn't show up. Thinking it might be a bug with my computer not showing it as a drive I try to use a command but it says: error: device not found. (Or something like that.) I hope someone could help me on why my device does not work with ADB. I am using Fire OS 4.5.2 (Un-Rooted.)
Make sure you have Amazon's drivers installed.
https://developer.amazon.com/post/T...p-the-ADB-driver-for-Kindle-Fire-Devices.html
Does this work for Mac? (I see the AVD thingy for Mac.)
Oh, nevermind I got it to work. Thanks alot for your help!

fire os 4.5.5 rolled back and up to 4.5.2.. safestrap 4.1 unsable to install rom

I am completely confused, I have no os on the HDX but do have safestrapv4.1. I am trying to sideload a rom.zip to the HDX from my windows7 laptop, but after trying loads of command lines I'm still trying to understand I don't think I'm any closer. I have Android studio, minimal ADB and Fastboot installed.
My Laptop see's the HDX as 'unspecified' device, allows to eject but not open so I can copy a rom to the HDX. Recovery shows files but for the life of me I have no idea how I get a file from my desktop to the HDX.
edit:the thread title is more confusing than my objective. @unsoft brick this broken b1tch.

Need help fixing kindle fire hd6 (4th) gen

So right now I have no home menu for my kindle fire as that application. Is broken.. Also I need help getting adb installed, because windows 10 is rediclous. My idea was to install 5.1.2 os launcher. or other wise known as amazon launcher. Which is responsible for homenu via adb. (my fire is rooted so no need to flip over that) But overall I need someway of getting the launcher or just simply reinstalling 5.1.2 but I like I said. I need adb to be properly installed and windows 10 is not working with me on this. (and its also annoying to know that microsoft forced my shift right click for command prompt to power shell. so I have to type cmd every single time.)
UPDATE: I forced installed through adb a older version of the fire os which works fie. however I lost my option to side load through adb, or apply updates through adb... how do i fix that? the version I have at the moment is now 4.5.3
