Does OTA Root Keeper work? - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I downloaded the Voodoo OTA Root keeper and I want to know does it work with the kf.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yZy5wcm9qZWN0dm9vZG9vLm90YXJvb3RrZWVwZXIiXQ... It's says it works with any devices using ext3 or ext4 file system and Google style incremental Ota update zip .

Thx

[Update-Only] nfx-update-kindle-6.3 - 3/30/2012

[Update-Only] nfx-update-kindle-6.3 - 3/30/2012
UPDATE ONLY from 6.2.2 to 6.3
Just for clarification this is not a complete rom this is only an Update
AND THIS IS ONLY IF YOU HAVE 6.2.2, not CM
Ok I have packaged up the 6.3 update with only the files changed or modified removed and added from 6.2.2
Included in this is:
unsecure boot image
busybox
su binary
and su apk
This is for anyone with root and Custom Recovery (Like TWRP) already installed and still on 6.2.2
this will not format system it will just update the need files.
So all current apps will remain and all data will be intact.
Install and wipe dalvik and cache, then reboot
Download Update 6.3
Files updated, added or removed

I would image so but you will lose some of the customization he does to his
A few dumb questions...
1) Can I flash this with CWM?
2) Will it overwrite my FFF bootloader?
3) Will it overwrite my overclocked kernel?
4) Will it prevent the OTA amazon 6.3 update?
5) Will it overwrite my customized build.prop?
Thanks!

If you still have your custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) then you can flash this and gain root. However, if you installed the Amazon OTA 6.3 update, you probably lost your custom recovery, in which case you will need to root another way.

How do you expect to flash it without a custom recovery?

Keep root?

I just rooted my GS3 and I want to get the latest update for my phone so I can have the brightness slider. How can I apply the update without losing root? Also I dont want to wipe my phone or install custom ROMS cause I just set up everything and got all my apps and I dont want to do that again.

Temporary Unroot to Install Apps

Some apps won't let you install them on a rooted device. The rom I'm running came with superSU. I go into superSU and disable superuser then reboot. After doing that I'm still unable to install the apps I'm trying to install from google play. Is there anything else I can try?

Ok, games require external sd in many cases to store their files. Since you are on a stock rom, you will need to flash a custom kernel for this to work properly.

ota update...now I messed up

I was rooted, then used mobile Odin to unroot and went back. I installed the latest update and now need to root again on my mac. It seems the process that worked with ics will not work with the new update? Any advice?

grab the rooted JB ROM for Odin, install virtualbox and windows xp Virtual machine and re-root. There may be an easier way, but this one works for sure.

Well, do you want a custom ROM, or do you want 100% unrooted stock without custom recovery or 2nd bootloader, because those are your two options.
I can't find a stock ROM compatible with twrp, just side load cm onto it and install it again, or use kffa to restore stock amazon os. I think restoring stock will get rid of twrp though just a heads up.

There are no stock KF ROMs for the KF2, there are only CM, PA or AOSP based ROMs. Flashing the stock update from Amazon will get rid of everything, including root, TWRP, and the 2nd bootloader.
So what would you rather have?
I want to go back to stock plz I tried flashing a bin 10.2.6 and renamed it as a zip but I get a error but I still have twrp and side loading but yes I want to go back to stock plz I have no os btw

Download the Kindle Fire 2 software update from Amazon
Rename it from update-blah-blah.bin to update-blah-blah.zip
Push it to your device
Factory reset!!!
Flash in recovery and reboot.
So download update file from Amazon and rename it as a zip OK good I'll try that but will I get a red screen btw that's why I want 10.2.6 so it will update and won't get red screen
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Red screen is completely avoidable on an os higher than that, u just have to downgrade the bootloader first.

The update will replace the bootloader, recovery boot and system partitions with pure stock, so there's little chance of bricking...unless you forget to factory reset.
So factory rest now and then flash OK btw what will happiness if I don't do a factory reset and should I wipe cashe and davlick cashe and system
