I only have access to an ancient computer that I've installed xubuntu on because that's about all I can get to run on it. Is it possible to root my HDX 7" from here?
I've done a bunch of googling and am just not turning up any recent information that seems to apply.

Try this site: http://www.howtogeek.com/133515/4-ways-to-run-windows-software-on-linux
It might not be anything , just not sure.
Search up VMware, Wine, or probably the best one, use a friend computer and/or a Remote desktop to root.
Also if has been updated to or pas version 4.1 you can't root right now. So your stuck until some one gets a good way of doing it. Don't worry too much about it, because you can call Amazon customer service and ask them to rill your device back to 13.3.2.7.
They don't like to roll em back so be sure to have a good story on how it doesn't work in and extra friend . With 13.3.2.7bis takes 2 minute to root. Website is www.towelroot.com, good luck.

As an alternative, is there a way to install CM-10 or CM-11 on it? (yeah, I expect if no developers have one here, it might be difficult to develop an image for it). For now I haven't needed to root it, as it's doing what I need for now, but if I want to start moving apps (or app data) off to a microSD card, I may need a root or CM1x version (and Google needs to be *smacked* for disabling SDcard functionality in later Android versions).
I have just purchased one of these NB7022S tablets from Staples as well. I have unsuccessfully been trying to root it for the last couple of days. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have one of these Nobis NB7022s tablets as well, but the screen has been broken. So since the tablet isn't usable in it's current state, would it be of use to someone to do a teardown/analysis of the device in order to make a CyanogenMod port to it?
success
Just rooted the nb7022s using kingo root. First download the android software developer kit on your pc then open the sdk manager and download every possible update in order to have the correct drivers, not sure which one did the trick because i just downloaded everything. Then in your tablet go to settings-about tablet- then scroll down to build number and click 7 times to unlock developers options on the main settings screen. Go to developers options and turn it on and enable usb debugging. Plug tablet into your PC and install and run kingoroot. Should connect and root your tablet and automatically install superuser. Now I just need to figure out what version of clockworkmodrecovery to flash as recovery because this tabket does not have a supported cwmr, any help on that would be awesome because i dont want to brick my very first rooted device lol. Hopefully this info might help another newbie like myself.
thanks buzzdb666 for the tip on rooting. However, now every time I turn off the tablet and on, it always does a factory reset/wipe so I have to reinstall everything . Wondering if you've encountered the same thing?
Would be an interesting experiment to try, but again, the tablet has a broken screen, and I can't have a mouse *and* a connection to the computer at the same time. I had thought I could at least get the debug info from the tablet in case someone wants to develop an image for a non-broken unit. Once again, it's available if any XDA developers would like to use it for tear-down or testing, since I can't do much with it otherwise. Unless there's a way to extract what someone would need via a microSD card.
Mine is doing the same thing after using Kingo Root. Not sure what can be done since I can't go backwards now.
Recently I tried to install android in my Kindle Fire HDX 7 and I install a thing called FireFireFire I think to my kindle then It messed up everything, so I don't know what to do and I wiped all my data and even the Option called SYSTEM. after that I reboot my Kindle and all I have is KINDLE FIRE on the screen that's it.

Why may I ask where you messing with the stock slot at all especially if you're not familiar with android .. Safestrap was designed specifically to keep this from happening . As of right now there is not a fix for you sorry . You probably would have known all that though if you had been reading at all in this forum or at least read how to use safestrap properly . This device is currently locked down tight safestrap was our only option there is no easy way to fix a brick there is no fastboot or repairs from a brick state that is public anyway.. There are warnings all over this forum sorry you missed them http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786190 good luck in your endeavor .
NO !!!

You really wonder why Amazon does not want an external Sd card ? The company a media company that also has cloud storage has interest in protecting copyrighted material, and that makes a business out of selling movies and music, and obviously they don't want you sideloading large amounts of your own media. Ect. Plus they've saved a few cents in manufacturing costs and get exactly what they want out of the device. You haveing use their storage and streaming... I don't know how many people that come in here thinking this is a regular tablet it is not. it is a Amazon media sales tool. And they have worked very hard to keep it that way, otherwise we would not be in these locked up predicaments.
I rooted the device,and changed the build.prop file.When I reboot the device,it shows kindle fire logo always.So I use V+&POWER into stock recovery,I reset the device.Now the computer couldn't recognized the device.I only entey the stock recovery.How I can do.Thank you,everyone.
If you don't have ADB access at this point, then there's nothing you can do.
The best you could try is contacting Amazon about it and seeing if they'll replace your device.

..I can tell you that at the moment your device is probably still fixable if you stop messing with it now. And start doing your homework. in pages past you will find other threads discussing this, there is even a root thread that discusses a certain Chinese root tool that roots via ADB anyway blah blah I have helped other people repair this situation but I am not willing to go fetch it for you. it is here and it can be done.you simply need to accomplish root on a device that will not boot ,the older Chinese root method we got desperate and used on older firmware works this way. once you have root and adb you will be able to change system file permissions,even push a different build.prop file ,as long as you have not wiped the system via safestrap with the proper research and time you will fix your device...somewhere here there is a direct link to, kindle help adb. that had correct drivers. You must uninstall previous drivers for your device on your computer and install the correct drivers to get a adb again. Good luck
Good eveing-
I'm not sure where to start. I have a kindle fire HDX 7, and just attempted to root the device yesterday. I was able to roll back to 3.2.8, then upgrade to 4.5.2 and successfully root the device. Everything was good.
I then toyed around with a few methods to install GAPPS. With each method, if I didn't achieve the desired results, I would factory reset, rollback to 3.2.8, upgrade to 4.5.2, root... etc. A process which I went through 3 or 4 times just to try and get access to the google play store. The final method was to use the steps layed out In This Thread, which is where my current problem started.
I was not able to get the play store working correctly. I then attempted to do a factory reset, and **** hit the fan. Upon reboot, I was greeted by the stock android welcome screen, asking me to select a language, and giving me the option to make an emergency call. My best guess is something in the "system" folders/files in the gapps zip doesn't jive with FireOS. From the provided setup screen, I am able to select a language and hit next, and then it takes me through to the FireOS wireless setup screen - and that's where things come to a halt. The process won't advance, the device is somewhat functional.. I can pull down the menu from the top, I can infact authenticate to wireless, I can fully access settings, I made a MAYDAY call... But I cannot get to a home screen. In theory - I believe this to be a "soft brick" as it doesn't do anything.. Though the operating system, is running.
I was toying around in ADB trying to get it to push the 3.2.8 bin image to /storage/emulated/0/, but it wasn't cooperating. After doing some research, I came to the conclusion that the stock USB cable won't work, and I need to order a Fastboot cable? Any truth to this?
I'm just looking for some direction here if anyone has any advice. Amazon said they won't replace it - so I'm kinda stuck at this point.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hi - thank you for that link. Am I to take one of the Kindle setup bin's and rename it to an apk?
Just a little vague on the instructions.

You saved my kindle - thank you!

For anyone who stumbles upon this post ...
Cables DO make a difference but a 'fastboot' cable is not necessarily the solution. HDX models do not respond to fastboot cables in the same way most other android devices do; they are effectively useless on this device for recovery purposes. However, a crappy cable can create all sorts of havoc, both with data transfer and charging. Whenever a tether isn't working as expected one of the first troubleshooting steps is to switch cables. Visually it is hard to tell the difference between a good/bad cable so you may have to go through a few. Fastboot cables are generally constructed to higher standards which may fool some HDX users into thinking that was the solution. More likely any high-quality USB cable would have done the trick.
I have solved this problem.

well I have searched around and cant seem to find solution. I'm a newb that has been dealing with a former friend that flashed a custom build on my galaxy note e from Verizon. well it seems he can control and get my info from wherever he is. I bought a new computer seeing my others weren't equipped. the fact is I need to get my pad back. I had two previous accounts here one was paintmaster pro and the other masterhide. he somehow was able to make them un accessible to me. so is there a way to get my original os back? or just stop the remote access he has? PLEASE HELP I AM HAVING PHSYICAL SYMTOMS NOW DEALING WITH THE STRESS FROM THIS. the build # he used is LMY47x.T3773vvRU1AOL7 . I'm new but not stupid all I need is a little direction and advice. I bought flash drives one is 65gb on sale for17.99 at store plus new sd cards as he has something attached to them. I found Facebook katana and canary programs. I'm not tech savvy enough to just hook up to new computer and check only for the fact that I'm afraid he has something planted to get into my computer if he hasn't already.
There wouldn't be anything on the tablet that would be able to hijack your new computer, unless he works for the NSA.
You can follow the information found here http://droididea.com/update-verizon...6-0-t377vvru1bpd6-firmware-stock-marshmallow/ to update your tablet to the newest stock firmware. This will erase anything he would have done to it. You should also factory reset it as well. I suggest using the Odin method because if it's been modified, the OTA wouldn't work and Kies might not recognize.
