Kindle Fire
So I have looked on how to root kindle fire(6.3.2) and when I try it GoogleUSB drivers(from KFU) doesnt work and always fails.
Anyway to get it to work?
Thanks in advance
Error messages?
Can you give us the error message and Windows version? I have seen some problems with XP preventing the drivers from installing.

I watched the video and I've read several threads about trying to solve my problem, but without success.
I rooted my Kindle Fire tonight utilizing the Kindle Fire Utility, but was unable to get the Google Play Market to run correctly without force closing.
I followed the directions in these forums and went to install FireFireFire to see if that would assist things, and during that time my device locked up at this image.
The forums will not allow me to post an image or a link but it is the standard Kindle Fire logo with the Android logo above that.
I attempted to follow the directions in the Kindle Unbrick Utility hosted here, however my Windows 7 is not recognizing the Kindle at all anymore. It's listed as 'malfunctioning' under windows and all of the unBrick utility options says the device is not responding.
I tried to reinstall the ADB drivers from both Kindle Fire utility and by manually editing the android usb driver in the Android SDK file.
Any ideas or did I just completely destroy my Kindle Fire after having it rooted for approximately six hours.
EDIT: Oh, my goodness. The unbrick just worked randomly. It still force closes google play but I am just going to cut my losses, I need a drink.
Hi Folks, I'm hopping for some help/guidance here. I have been serching and serching but not found a fix or solution that actual works.
Idealy, I would like to use KFU to root my kindle fire and then load jelly bean 4.2.x. I have tried some other tools to root too but so far no luck.
I mac available (10.7) and win7 64bit box avaiable (they main way I have tried.
Kindle Fire 2nd get running 10.2.6
I have tried to install the KFU drivers a bunch of times, and they seem to install but kindle allays either shows up as kinle (mass storage MTU device) or marked out as kindle other. I can't seem to get it show as the other drivers. If I try and update to them complains that it's a not MTU driver or that I don't have 64bit version (umm I can see it grrr).
KFU shows
ADB status: Online
Boot Status: Unknown
It can direct the kindle to reboot into fast mode but the change never happens after reboot, then hangs waiting for device.
I have updated java, installed android SDK tried other things to no effect... just not sure what I am missing in what seems to be a pretty simple process for so many (I'm not new to unlocking devices or using new roms either).
Thanks for any help!
Superclick was able to root
Superlclick was able to root and set it to be able to use non store apps but still can't get KFU to interact with it right. I'm sure it's me, just not sure what I'm doing wrong .

Still cant root this kindle fire and it's been almost to a week. I run windows xp and have a kindle fire 1st generation with 6.3.2. Now the problem I'm having with rooting this kindle fire is that when I try to install the drivers it says its unassigned. I went into the control panel and I checked the box for installing unassigned drivers but that doesn't work. I heard you can manually install the drivers but Idk know how to do that and even after I do what do i do after that. Anything I can do to root this kindle fire?
Hello XDA forums,
I have had nothing, but problems install TWRP on my Kindle fire version 6.3.2. I have installed the drivers on windows 7 and when i connect my kindle fire. In device manger the kindle fire displays as "Android Phone", at the top showing the drivers are correctly installed. The problem is anytime i run the install.bat file to install TWRP my kindle fire is stuck on the Logo and in the command prompt it just says "<waiting for device>"... The install.bat file will be stuck here until i close out of it. I then i have a unbootable kindle fire which i boot up linux and run the SoupKit application to fix the kindle fire boot mode, so it can boot propertly. Can anyone help me figure out why i can't install TWRP on my kindle fire? I was thinking about doing a factory reset and starting over to see if that works?
Anyone help out?
Update "After trying 3 different computers i finally found success with my desktop running windows 8.1. I had to modify the driver signing feature and disable ti in order for my kindle fire to be recognized in fast boot. I honestly have no idea why the drivers seem to work on windows 8.1 x64 along with recognizing my kindle fire in fast boot. My windows 7 laptop and linux even was having troubles installing TWRP on my kindle fire. The windows 7 laptop was unable to recognized Kindle Fire Utility and my kindle fire wouldn't show up in device manger." I Was luckly after messing with kindle fire and drivers for about 6 hours i finally found one pc to work.
I have bricked my kindle fire and need help. I have apparently wiped the OS from my kindle fire and failed to backup everything before I started. I can access TWRP but the PC(using windows xp) will not recognize the kindle. If I let it boot "normal" (gets stuck at logo) the PC will partially recognize the kindle but I have no access to the files on kindle (only recognized in device manager). I get an error on Kindle Fire Utility v0.9.9 stating that the "system/bin.sh" file cant be found or something like that. Please help as I have read and read and tried everything but to no avail.

Ok. So I still have not solved my problem but somehow in the command prompt I am showing a device when I type in "adb devices" but now I'm worried about what to do or where to go from here. Can someone please help me.
