I've recently picked up a 3rd generation fire hd6 & am struggling to find a decent case for it as it's all about the 4th gen stuff nowerdays.
if anyone knows of a source for gen3 hd6's it'd be most welcome.
thanks in anticipation
Solved

Guys,
Quick question:
Is Saturn/Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" 4th gen (2014) rootable or not?
(Ancient wisdom says 4.1.1 & later 4.5.1 are not rootable)
What firmware Saturn is shipped with?
For some reason, I cannot make forum search work at all, sorry.
You're right. Since the 4th generation HDX 8.9" comes with FireOS 4, there's no way to root it at this moment.
EncryptedCurse,
Thanks for prompt response! :good:
The only reason I asked, reading this thread it was unclear to me, whether Saturn comes fresh with 3.X or 4.X OS.

It is for USA.
One question, I spoke to customer service on Amazon, They stated the 4th Gen kindles HDX 8.9(2.5 snap dragon) and new HD6 and HD7 models have OTG support enabled....
Is this true? And 3rd Gen (2.2 snapdragon) which I have, it is disabled.
All over the net im seeing disabled all the time.
And I haven't seen anyone here speaking about OTG support at all.
They might've misunderstood your question. I'm pretty sure they don't.
Amazon love to force you to use bandwidth and their cloud storage.so they do this on purpose. Along with the no SD slot has been a trend with companies that are affiliated with each other..
I have the hd6 and from what I remember otg is functional. I can confirm this evening.
The hd6 does support otg.

My mother has a Kindle Fire HD (3rd Generation) 7inch I believe? Running Fire OS 4.5.5.
I was wondering if Android can be put on this type of Kindle because the Fire OS is so bland and boring with nothing more really than the amazon and kindle store.
If it is possible I would need something that is the most stable. It doesn't have to be the most updated version of Lolipop with all the frills. Just basic or flashy enough that it runs smoothly with the least amount of problems.

Hi,
I have an issue with a Kindle Fire HD7 (2nd Generation). Basically, the appstore version installed is wrong and it gives me a Error code: 500 stating 'Appstore was unable to complete your last request'
This Kindle is new to me as I like to buy and sell them for a bit of spare cash, but I do have another Kindle Fire HD7 (2nd Gen) with a working appstore (Version 6.2401.2205836.0_880576510)
I cannot for the life of me find this version anywhere. My question is, can I somehow extract this app from the working Kindle, or does anyone have any idea how I would be able to get hold of this version?
Thanks in advance,
Dan.
i received my dads old kindle fire, am i right in thinking i can turn it to android? would be alot better
