Nope - but you can downgrade to 13.3.1.0 following the instructions here. You could have easily answered you own question reading the OP of the TWRP post. Seriously, you need to start reading up on your options. No one is going to respond if you don't do your homework.

Hey guys, I just got my replacement kindle. It came with 3.2.1. I did not update it yet, which I possibly won't, and I was wondering on how to root, and disable OTA on this version, thanks if you can help me.

You bricked your device before because you just clicked what you saw and did't read any how to...
So maybe you start to read this time? :fingers-crossed:
And no need to crosspost your questions in several threads...
To answer another question, for OTA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665683
With this tool you get root, and OTA...
But if you read the how to's to first downgrade again and get TWRP and CM11 or Nexus, you will see you don't need that step....

nader1450,
Follow the correct procedure and you'll be ablke to downgrade, installing a ROM backup is not going to help you in any way.
There are not many memebers with this problem, and those who do are following the wrong procedure or not following the steps correctly. I have not yet seen a single case where people were not able to downgrade where it was not caused by user error.

I'm not really sure what just happened here. Lol.
I have an at&t s2 I777.....it is rooted one i guess (it was gifted)..
I want the ICS on it...and believe me i know nothing about how to get it....
i googled and found many people explaining the process for a windows PC version.
I have a mac and if some one would please care to explain (step-by-step is much appreciated)..i attach the present status of the I777...
Thanks....
Senior members will probably scream SEARCH at you 'til blue in the face, so I'll throw you a bone since I've been stalking for far too long.
This (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878686) is a guide to Heimdall (basically Odin for Mac) find a kernal to flash (I started with Siyah http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19650906&postcount=1) and follow the Heimdall guide to flash to your GS2. Next you can download any ICS Rom (I've been using ShoStock2 since version 1.1) to your phone and flash the zip using CWM (there are a plethora of guides on this should you need it, so search.)
Check out my thread, no need for a computer to flash the update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722064
I would suggest you follow the guide linked in my signature. It has instructions for using heimdall with the mac.
Do *not* install Siyah 3.4 on your phone if you are running Gingerbread stock or modified firmware. You can not use an ICS kernel with a Gingerbread system.
If you have any questions or problems as you work through the guide, feel free to post your questions in that thread.
Edit: if you already have ClockworkMod Recovery on the phone, then you can just download the firmware distribution you want and flash it in recovery.

Yes, it is based on the last AT&T release. You will need CWM to install the ROM.

When you use mobile Odin, it gives you a choice to root while flashing.

Honestly, I keep all of my fingers crossed for OP action.
I've searched and searched for a proper guide to do this, but without look. Somehow Google are not able to distinguish between the standard X and X+. Does anyone here have a guide thats broken down in all steps? I've never rooted my Android phone before, so need all the basics.
Thanks!

Hey guys, I have a little problem I tried to find the solution in other posts, but I didn't found it, so this is my last hope... I hope you can help me.
So I have an Asus Memo Pad HD7, and I rooted it using framaroot 1.9.3, then one day it appeared a firmware actualization in my notification bar, I updated NY android and then after some days I just wanted to check if the unroot option in the framaroot worked, well my mistake it worked to well, after I clicked I rebooted and them the supersu was gone and I had unrooted tablet again, but when I tried to root again it told me it was rooted and then after reboot it wasn't... I can't root it again
The weird part is that recently I made another firmware actualization and supersu appeared magically in my phone, I tried to start it, but it showed an error saying my phone was unrooted... then I uninstalled supersu and tried to root again, but I can't...
Please help!
P.s: I didn't instal any rooms and I already tried factory reset in settings.
P.s.s: The weirdest part is that people say they unrooted to do a firmware update, while I did it with my rooted tablet. And Avast says my device is running in high privilege mode, but Root Checker says it's not.
Please any help will be appreciated!
Without knowing which firmware you are on now, it's not really possible to tell you how to reroot correctly.

My android is 4.2.2, my kernel version 3.4.5 and my model name is ME173X. I can't find the firmware though, the best I found is this: Camera firmware: 80000 and Build Number: ME173X_WW_user_4.2.4.04152_20140714 release-keys.

Recovery + SuperSU zip or custom rooted stock rom will probably be the way to go.

Sorry, I don't have a lot of experience with android devices so, I hate to say it, I'm kind of noob on that. Can you please help me with a tutorial explaining how to do that?

Framaroot uses a bug to get Root access and root the Device.Maybe the update has been fixed.Try to downgrade your Software and root again.

I don't have the device, so I can't really help directly, but I mean, there's a picture guide with stuff circled that you need to do. If it's too complicated then it would be wise to invest in having a qualified shop or tech to help.

How is downgrading any easier than the root guide for the current version you're on...?
I think rooting via Fastboot is safer than framaroot.

I provided the link to what you need already. It's on the 2nd post of the thread. It has a step by step with pictures. You need to unlock the bootloader and install the custom recovery so you can install the superuser zip. If you can't follow the picture guide, then you should really enlist the help of someone who does this for a living since this is your only tablet and are very unsure of yourself.

After reading the entirety of your [ROOT/KERNEL] Root Method for FOF6 / 5.1.1 thread, I realize that I am way over my head. So over my head that I have only just read about rooting. Can anyone point me to the rooting for dummies (T-Mobile Galaxy S5, upgraded to FOF6/5.1.1)?

1. Download the kernel
2. Flash in recovery (if twrp asks if you want to install su say NO)
3. Reboot and profit.
So I've rooted my old nexus 5 and I just now got a galaxy s5.
I have version 5.1.1 baseband version FOG6...my question is, can I root with that baseband version and be okay? I am a super noob when it comes to o anything non nexus.
The more info the better, thanks!

With this kernel? Yes. But be warned if you use an mhl adapter it will not work. Samsung broke it with the FOF6 update which this kernel is based off of. Soon as samsung releases the source I'll update it to FOG6 and mhl will work
