Hi,

I own a Google Nexus 5 with the Lollipop 5.0 (LRX210) and it has full ROOT access. I would like to be directed to the right apps that I can use on this device and I will like you to recommend me to the right ones with genuine apps. Thanks
Hi,
You will need to be more specific here. Most apps that worked before will work now, or as soon as app developers update them.
I'm not sure what you say... Check the play store for compatibility of apps.
Or please be more specific.
Thanks!
Thank you. Thread closed.
We bought some cheap 7" tablets for our kids, as they'd been playing games on our TF300T and I wasn't getting a look in!
Google MID-741KID-PNK
On the TF300T, I was using the app "Kids Mode" by Zoodles to help manage their use i.e. blocked content, promotion of educational content, etc. I thought I'd be able to install that app and use it, but the tablet comes pre-installed with its own app which auto-launches on start up. The two aren't compatible so I've had to stick with the pre-installed app.
1. Is it possible to stop the pre-installed app from auto-loading and/or remove it? I'm not even sure where it is as it doesn't come up in the list of installed apps.
2. Could I try flashing a new ROM? No Laser devices come up on the XDA Forums though... so what would I use?
(current install - Android version 4.4.2, Baseband version Unknown, Kernel 3.0.36+ [email protected]_desktop #393 Mon Oct 21 2013, Build Number JDQ39)
Thanks!
Mark.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately there's zero development for Laser devices, which is a shame because they're awful and desperately need modification (got one for free when buying a laptop, it's collecting dust). As far as uninstalling pre-installed apps go, you usually can't without root access. It might be worth trying some of the root exploits that you can find in the root directory:
How To Root
If you have root you can use an app like Titanium Backup to freeze or uninstall a pre-installed system app.
Thanks timmaaa, I'll give that a go. :good:
No problems, good luck!

I'd like to root my Kindle Fire (2nd gen, I think - system version is 6.3.4_user4120720). I can't post a link to the method I'm planning to use, but a google search for "techhive how to root your kindle fire pcworld" will take you right to it.
My questions: Which version of the Android OS will I end up with when this process is done? Once the Kindle is rooted, is it then possible to install later (or the latest) versions of the OS, or does the device itself limit what can be installed?
The reason I want to root is that as certain web sites have become more complicated, the Silk browser has become pretty much useless. It's almost impossible to read the news any more. Pages bounce all over the place, or the browser crashes as pages load their nonsensical graphics and animations. I'm hoping that rooting will open up options for installing a better browser. In addition, my Kindle is no longer able to run the current version of Dropbox, which is important to me. And finally, it'll be refreshing to get rid of the stupid carousel!
Hi there,
Rooting a device doesn't change the version of Android.
Please use this forum to ask for help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd/7-inch-help
Good luck.
Thanks. I somehow missed that forum section.

Do you have Fire HD 8 6th Generation (2016)? Do you want it rooted? Request it then!
This is how to do it:
1) Download KingRoot. The version for PC is Chinese only. For English, get APK file. Very detailed instructions are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461 . Download APK file directly to the device for easier installation.
2) Install KingRoot. Can be done by tapping the APK file on the device. Watch for error message: "Installation blocked". Tap "More details", then tap "Install anyway (unsafe)".
3) Run KingRoot. Tap "Try it" button, let it work. Then tap "Try Root", and let it work again. There will be "Failed to Root" message after that. You will also see how many requests to root have already been received. Please note it down. We need more!
4) Request root for your device! Tap "Submit request" link at the bottom of the app. This will add your vote, and hopefully will help getting root faster.
5) Post below when you did it, to encourage other people to do the same. Please also post the current number of requests, to help keep track of our progress.
Do it now!
All the above is very easy to do, and should take 5-10 minutes tops. If everyone coming here for root does that, the chances are we will get KingRoot's attention and actually get root.
P.S. Big thank you goes to Ayredfr for the idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70198709&postcount=109 .
Just did it, let's get the root that we deserve!
Tried 50 times over the past month. Hope root comes soon.
I did it too. Let's get our device rooted!
I did it. I hope its help.

Just did it.
I assume someone has tried the computer-based Kingroot method too?

It's not working too on last 6th gen. This tablets with last firmware can't be rooted anyway
I just ran KingRoot on a Fire HD 8, and it said we already have 32 requests to root. Which is not bad. But could be better!
Just downloaded and tried a newer version of KingRoot, and it says 46 requests received already. Nice!
Tried and sent request.........
So, i'm very new to this topic. But just to be right...
Is it possible to put a custom ROM on the Amazon Fire HD 8 (6th Generation)?
Becuase i saw very much tutorials how to get custom ROM on the FIre HD 8 but lower Generation than 6... Possibly we can use it too?
I mean expect for the fact that we can't root it right now. (If i'm right ;D)
Thanks for your help

You need root before any custom rom or scripts.
Quit playing with your Pokemon.
Looking for this also. I'm on 5.3.1.1 and I'm waiting for root before I connect it to wifi

The amount of votes only has the impact of determining if there is any interest in root. When they actually decide to do it nobody can tell how long it will take to actually achieve root.
So I was attempting to follow the rooting guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/how-to-upgrade-to-lollipop-root-gapps-t3163950) and aside from being very confused on the whole post in its entirety, I was wondering where I could find the TWRP for a Kindle Fire HD 6, I'm currently running 5.3.1.1 December 20th if that matters. I'd be more than willing to provide additional information if needed, on request.
