[Q] kindle fire hdx root - Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

hello im new in here.. I buy today the kindle fire hdx 7 from a radioshack store that was closing in 80 bucks i want to root it and istall a android rom because i dont like the amazon one ..but this tablet is old and come with this version 13.3.0.2 and have an update ready to 13.3.2.5 im scare to update but i cant find anything to root my version any help ?

Try to remove the update before it installs by erasing and registering the kindle. Then, read the twrp thread and other threads in the dev section.

Usually. You can roll back if you need, but not if it updates much further.

Here you go. Start here. You will probably need to roll back first. All of this is risky. I suggest reading a lot before doing anything rash. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2986004

You are still okay, but either turn off WiFi or disable updates now. Use towelroot and the HDX toolkit to do so. If you leave it on WiFi much longer, you will not be able to replace the native is with an alternative build.

i root the hdx and have SuperSU install and disable the ota from the toolkit .. but when I try to use safetrap does not work what could it be I still in the same version

I am not sure. I know little about safestrap. But, be careful. I do know people who have bricked devices troubleshooting safestrap. You can still use an alternate recovery, and I recommend that highly

CFAutoroot will work on the latest firmware. I unrooted, updated through Kies, and rerooted just to be sure.

Out of curiosity, how did you unroot? I forgot to check for the OTA before I rooted and never got it.

Okay, I mistyped. You unroot through a factory restore via Kies, but the Knox counter is still tripped.
No, that's fine.... Just making sure of the proper way to unroot. I was pondering using the posted .tar file and using Odin, but wasn't sure if that was the best method.

[Q] Help needed to ROOT 6435LVW

Hello,
Sorry to start this thread because I have read many but can't find the actual help to ROOT this device Verizon HTC6435LVW.
When I go into bootloader I see this (Image: Bootloader)
and when I try to install recovery got this;
(Image: recovery error)
Can someone tell me where to unlock my bootloader or how to root this device.
Thanks in advance.
Been so long I fooled with it. But try this?

Before you can send a recovery you need to unlock the bootloader and achieve soff. Like mentioned above the website linked is a one click program that will unlock and turn the device soff. From there you can flash a custom recovery and then flash the newest su zip found on the su website and you will achieve root.

Make sure to use the DNA specific one or it won't work. Let me know if you run into any issues and I can help you out. But it's pretty self explanatory. Follow the directions and profit. Good luck.

I just flashed it this morning and did a restore. Was at stock and up to date before flashing. Using 2.7.0.0
I've been trying this method since TWRP went official on the S5 and it keeps telling me it's not supported. Same with GooManager and Flashify. I don't want to go the whole Odin route if these methods should work. I'm on Philz recovery but want to go to TWRP since I had that on my S3.

Use Odin to flash TWRP, unchecked reboot. Pull the battery. Then boot your phone into recovery.
I cant seem to find a twrp file to Odin. .do you happen to have one please

Not sure if you still need it, but go here https://dl.twrp.me/hltespr/ and download the .tar file and then flash through Odin.
Or use twrp manager from the play store to install it.
Which version would one install?? I went from 4.4.4 nh7 custom to oc5 official.. 5.0 . Im now rooted once again... not sure which twrp i am suppose to go w. ???
