[Q] Kindle Fire 6.3 - Is it possible to sideload google market?

I have rooted my fire before using the method from this thread here. So I realized the main reason I wanted to root it was to get the marketplace. Now I know with 6.2.2 you could use "Superoneclick" then after installing the marketplace and changing permissions you could then use SOC(superoneclick) to "Unroot" the device and yet still keep the google market.
My question is, using the KF Utility for 6.3 by Teamwin, can you succesfully unroot the device and still keep the market like you could with 6.2 or has this ability been broken. As you can tell I have done some research and to no avail have found anyone saying how to unroot a 6.3 KF and yet still keep google market. Also, if this is possible is Google Play also possible and perhaps Google Books
Thanks (sorry if this is answered somewhere I did a search on the forum and didn't find anything to these specific items)
NOTE: I do know you can sideload apps but I heard sideloading the market is next to impossible without first rooting the device.

I understand that. I am trying to have the Google/Android Market be on the unrooted KF 6.3 OS. I would post the article but I don't have enough posts yet lol. The article is on Lilputing though. The article title is "How to sideload apps (even the Android Market) on the Amazon Kindle Fire". They are using SuperOneClick (which apparently doesn't work with 6.3) and in using SOC they quickly root the device, install the things they want, then unroot using SOC and keep everything.
My question is, is this possible on 6.3 using KFU or is SuperOneClick now supported for 6.3...

Yes you can. Root with KFU. Side load the market (google play) as a system app along with the Google framework and once every thing works download OTARootkeeper and install.
You can then unroot an re-root at will.

Ok. Thanks. I have heard of OTARootkeeper but thought it just mimicked a Root/Unroot device. I didn't know if that would work with 6.3. I am surprised there isn't an article out there discussing my specific question. I thought it would be a common thing to ask. Thank you though I will give that a try.
Edit: I haven't done this just yet to test but my end goal was to have the KF unrooted and still have access to the android market. Using OTARk makes it seem like if I want the android market I just "quick root" it back to get it. I may be misunderstood what "root" really means when it comes to the KF.

Here is a better way of explaining.
1. Download Google play store and Googleservicesframework. Apk
2. Move the Google play store to system/apps
3. Install Googleservicesframework apk like a normal application.
4. Reboot your device
5. The play store should work. Now you may unroot your device.

Thanks for all the help and clarifying. One last question. To unroot do you suggest using OTAKroot or is there a way to make a more "solid" unroot and yet still keep the play store? Again thanks for quick helpful responses everyone.

I suggest OTA root keeper. Its the only way I know to unroot your device. If you like the answer I gave you hit the "thanks" button

Ok so I have everything done however it's not the exact result I was hoping/expecting. I was wanting the main stock look of the KF but with the market installed and working. Right now I have unrooted but am having trouble figuring out how to get back to my Amazon KF stock launcher and my Amazon Prime videos.
Edit: I can't figure out how to get to my Amazon bookshelf anymore. I have the Amazon App store and Kindle App from the market but how do I get back to the amazon bookshelf?

You have to clarify a bit more for me...
1. Is the play store up and working?
2. Did you download any custom launchers?
3. Did you download any custom lockscreens?
4. The steps you took were root, installed market, unroot, correct ?

Play store is working. I tried Go Launcher to see if I could get the Default Launcher through there. No lockscreens. It is currently with CM7 unrooted via OTA Rootkeeper. But when I rebooted after unrooting it I had the CM7 android interface still. Not KF default interface.

This video is what I essentially was trying to accomplish. He has the Launcher.apk but it seems to not work on CM7 or at least not 6.3. Right now, I can't get to the instant video screen or bookshelf at all...

This video was from November, that was before 6.2 :/ I think this method is outdated... sorry

So you not only rooted but you installed a custom ROM.
That's a whole other story.
To get what you want you need to restore your original ROM from backup. Reroot with KFU. Side load the framework and market and unroot with OTA rootkeeper. You should have made a backup from restore before you installed CM7.
Do not repeat do not upgrade the kindle reader from the market if you wish to keep using the original launcher.
It would help if we knew why you wanted to be un rooted.
Rooting only gives you access to your file system. The only custom softwear you need is superuser. Unrooting with OTA rootkeeper just makes a backup of SU and then removes it. You can then watch movies etc. But when you need root back you just restore your SU backup in OTA rootkeeper.
Why do you need to permanantly unroot ?

Since you are loading ROMs, I'd recommend MoDaCo rom. It's the closest to stock with the play store already added.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439916
Another option
Keep stock, root, add SU, (and add go launcher if you want) Just add a shortcut to the kindle launcher. Unroot. Then you can switch back and forth. Simplest way.
I sideloaded the market app with file expert when I was happy with stock.
Though I don't know why you insist on unrooting.

I guess I misunderstood what rooting really meant. So I can use KFU to root the device but after doing so DO NOT install CM7 and instead just sideload google market and once installed just use it to install any apps but at the same time since CM7 wouldn't be installed I would be seeing the basic interface from KF as it is stock?

Correct. You do not need to do anything after you root unless you want to. Everything on your KF will stay stock. I would recommend you flash a recovery (I prefer CWM) that way you can reload your backup if you need to. Whst I would do is root install firefirefire and CWM. Reboot to CWM and backup everything. Then load the framework and market. When you root make sure SU is properly installed before you move ahead. You will need a copy of root explorer or another file manager to make this all happen with the least pain.
Remember if you keep the stock launcher DO NOT update the kindle reader from the market. The stock KF reader is not the same as the market version but the market will see it as an old version and try to get you to update it.
I run both the stock launcher and go launcher. I keep a shortcut to the stock launcher on my go launcher dock and a shortcut to go launcher on my stock dock. I toggle between them as needed.

I followed everything except CWM. Is that something similar to KFU as far as how to root it or is that like the TWRP that I had before for recovery? And thanks for explaining all this.

It is like TWRP. A recovery program. I like it much better. But it does the same thing.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Ok. After some tweaking I now have reset the device back to factory settings. Re-rooted, used CWM for backup/recovery. I used the MoDaCo and successfully installed the Google Play store. Installed OTA rootkeeper and used it to "temp unroot" my device. I was hoping this would give me access to the "Watch Now" on the Amazon Video but it still is greyed out. Truth be told, I got the month free of Prime for getting the KF but I probably won't continue to pay. Regardless, is that the only feature that I can't get with the rooted device? If so, then I am to say, happy for sure.

Android Market "Google Play" Install

So i rooted my kindle fire, and, using root explorer, successfully installed Google Play. But i have a few questions.
1. I have v3.15.19, but i cannot find some apps, like 100 floors and Rockplayer(lite).
2. Is there anyway to get Google Play to auto-update?
3. Is there anyway to get Google Play as my main Market, because when it gives me any links, it opens up Amazon Market, not Google Play
4. What else can rooting do for me. All ive done is install Google Play. I know i can install ROMS like CM7 or CM9, but what else can i do?
Thanks!
EDIT: Well I flashed a few ICS Roms(CM9 and Energy) but never having a android device before and getting used to the kindle fire's OS, I really didn't like ICS, and, luckily, I made a backup and i just restored the backup and everything was back to its old state.
Oh yeah, and for 3, I went into the Amazon Market, and went somewhere in the menu that let me decide to open links automatically or have it ask me which one. So that problems solved.

you can flash modaco if your on rooted stock it may give you more benefit in the play store if your having issues. google play and amazon work side by side quite nicely plus you have the benefit of the stock experience if thats what you really want. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439916

sense no one gave a good answer to Question number 3 I will give it a try
3. the only way to make it so that it loads the Google Play store instead of amazon app store is to Flash a non-Kindle based ROM but before you run and flash a custom ROM.
If you are a prime member I would suggest that you do not flash a non-Kindle based ROM because you will lose your access to the Amazon's Lending Library, and Amazon Instant Video.
I would suggest you flash a non-Kindle based ROM if you wont a full android experience and do not need the services listed above

That isn't necessarily true. I have a rooted KF and am still able to access my Amazon subscription services and videos.
I flashed the MoDaCo ROM and am using GoLauncher EX to still give me the Aneroid feel. In order to get around Amazon's rediculous 'no root' block, I simply use Voodoo OTA RootKeeper to 'save' my root status and fake an un-root status. Then you can restart your amazon app and it will allow you to access your prime and instant video stuff.
When you're done watching, you can return to root status using Voodoo again.
Hope that helps!

That is not what I was Talking about. I know you can use that method to access the services on a Rooted Kindle but to my knowledge there is no method to get access to Amazon Prime services on a Non-Kindle Based Rom.

Amazon doing something new to block play?
I rooted my KF (6.3.1) and installed the services framework and play (3.5.15), but it won't allow me to login to my google account, says "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server".
Is Amazon doing something new to keep us away from Play -- something in a hosts table or firewall setting somewhere?

Download and install MoDaCo. It is pre rooted stock UI with Google framework services and Play Store already installed. Besides being a little faster, you really won't notice a difference.

how to install android market?

i rooted,and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351283 i used vending 3.3.12,...i succes market installed..
but,every times running on message show `add on account on market`then disappear .. how download apk???

Since you're going through the trouble of trying to install the market manually (and the lack of specificity), I can only assume you're running the stock Amazon software. In which case, I would strongly suggest saving yourself a butt-load of trouble and flash the MoDaCo rom (you do have recovery installed, don't you? Gawd, I hope so)
MoDaCo is not much different from stock, except it has Google apps and Market pre-installed, and it's missing most of Amazon's "assume the position" software. Besides you'd be hard pressed to find a better "stock" experience anywhere else IMO.

Two Kindles - Sideloading?

hey everyone, i have two kindle fire's. I recently rooted one and the other is still stock. i was wondering if anyone knew if it were possible to download a "kindle fire edition" game from the stock kindle and sideload/back it up on the rooted device. Might be a noob question, since i have no idea if you can even back up a amazon appstore app since i believe it doesn't actually deliver an apk when you install. any help/info would be appreciated. thanks.

I'm also open to any other methods of loading kindle fire edition apps on a rooted device if anyone knows of any...

I am assuming that you have tried to download the app directly from the Amazon store onto your rooted KF and for some reason it didn't work. So try using ES File Explorer. Put it on the unrooted KF. Back up the game using ES. That will create an apk file, then transfer the apk file to the rooted KF and install.
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire using xda premium

Interesting
I wasn't even aware i could use es to backup and create apk's... i'll try that a little later. thanks for the info.

nope
no luck. tried a couple different apps and neither worked... could have something to do with the drm on gameloft's games though. might try again with something else. if i have a recovery image of stock kindle and a recovery of cm7 can i switch to stock via twrp install, backup then recover to cm7? would that maybe work?

You can sideload games just fine on a KF. The problem is the DRM won't allow you to launch the games unless the second KF is also linked to your amazon account.

You can link your Android device to your Amazon account through Kindle reader...it might work to get around the DRM.

good to know... thanks for the info. just had a case of wishful thinking i guess. its not that hard to switch between recovery img's though. thanks

[Q] HBO GO no longer working

Forgive me if this has already been gone over but I cannot seem to find any other discussion about it. I am running the energy ICS rom for my kindle fire and I can no longer run HBO GO since the last play store update.
I uninstalled the play store app and tried to get the app from amazon but it of course says my device is not compatible. I tried side loading an apk for the amazon store version and it does finally launch, but force closes shortly after. I've been trying to find a more updated version of the amazon store HBO GO apk but no luck. I figured maybe if I could get the newest apk that might work. Anyone else with this problem? What am I missing here? Any help would be much appreciated.

You should get gederom.It works with gederom I think.

I'll try that. Is this a nice looking rom like energy? Eh I'll just give it a shot. Can always go back.

No luck on gederom either. HBOGO just says "HBOGO has stopped working" when you try to launch. If you try to do a report you get "Google Play store has stopped responding".
Any other suggestions? I wonder if someone could get the latest apk for HBO go on kindle from the amazon store if that would work. Is there any one that can point me in the direction or maybe somehow rip the latest version apk. The one out for download that I have seen before is outdated and also force closes.
EDIT: Any way to make the Amazon app store think I am running stock kindle fire? I'm just amazed I cannot find anyone else asking about this issue. I can't be the only person with a custom rom kindle fire that wants to use HBOGO can I?
EDIT2: Going to try using IMEI Generator to get amazon app store to let me load the app. Hope this works.

I've been having this issue since they made it official for JB. It ran while I was using twa_priv's JB ROM, but not so much on any other ROM. There's a permissions issue that's causing the app to crash on a lot of JB ROMs, but there's a patch/hack that needs to be applied to it for it to work. It's currently above my smarts range just looking at the coding, but I'm sure one of the devs will figure it out way before I even crack the surface on changing code level permissions.

Well I didn't get Amazon App store to recognize my custom rom Kindle as a stock Kindle, but it didn't matter after all. The following fix makes the Google Play store HBOGO app work again. Credit goes to user diesteldorf for helping me figure this out.
"First, your Kindle Fire has to be rooted but I assume it is. Second, you must have an app called Root Explorer installed.
The file you want to edit is the build.prop file. Go into the Root Explorer app and search for it. It will usually be somewhere in the system directory.
Next you'll want to edit the file. Root Explorer should keep a backup of the original build.prop file but you may want to keep a backup just in case.
Here is a link to what should be the stock build.prop for the Kindle Fire. You'll want to read it using a text editor or MS Office.
Here are the settings you'll be interested in changing:
ro.product.model=Full Android on Blaze or SDP
ro.product.brand=generic
ro.product.name=blaze
ro.product.device=blaze
ro.product.manufacturer=TI
Then Save the changes to the build.prop file and reboot your device."
Once you have done this simply uninstall the HBOGO app from your device if you haven't already and reinstall. Should fire up like normal now.
Once again thank you diesteldorf. I was about to pull my hair out(okay not really).
EDIT: One other thing of note, I actually went back to my backup of energy rom so I am assuming this method should work for any ICS rom but can't be 100% sure of course.

I am having this same problem using hashcodes jb rom. I will give this a try and hopefully this will solve my problem. I need my HBO fix!

The funny thing I found out is doing this fix makes the MAX GO app stop working. I gotta say if someone knows an easy fix that wouldn't interfere with this HBO GO fix i'll take it, but to be honest I really don't care about MAX GO at this point.
Also my feeling is that MAX GO will probably get the same store update that HBO GO got and maybe it will just start working again anyways.
