Not sure if this is the best place to post this, if it isn't maybe someone can shoot me in the right direction.
I just got a Kindle Fire HD 8.9 running 8.4.6. I really dislike the crap Amazon OS on there. I've seen a few threads about rooting it and installing a custom ROM but I'm not sure about doing it on 8.4.6. Can someone maybe point me in the right direction on this? Ideally I'd just like to install a more vanilla Android experience. Any help is very much appreciated!

Thanks for replying
i have gone over plenty of those for here, While its helpful to others on lower versions of the kindle fire 2, there is litterally NO information on 10.5.1, The only information i have found so far is that kingoroot can root it. No i have google searched/Xda searched Everywhere on information if my system version is hackable but i see no response or help on it. I'm lost in the dark because who knows if amazon patched these exploits in 10.5.1 and if i wing i could brick? Or i might not, Who knows. nobody does because theres no information on 10.5.1.

I've had my HD6 for bout a year now and I need to root it to get GAPPS working right and some other things I need to make GPS based selling work on my Fire
I've come across some informative vids and threads but most are JUST outside my OS firmware or for HD7 or HD9 or something. it be optimal if I can get King root to work but from what I understand I'm right out of the firmware grasp of King Root. ANYONE PLEASE HELP?! Thanks!

The following threads (and the additional information above) should get you on the right track providing you with some options:
