Hey, guise! Would you look at that, my first post here is one asking for assistance.
Alright, I have a Kindle Fire first generation, and I'm thinking about upgrading it to OtterX. I've already been there, done that, and beaten the bush up ten times over with playing with that Kindle. It's currently running CyanogenMod 11, Otter version, with self modified partitions which I needed to change up again anyways to offer more System space and maybe more Data space, something I wasn't worried about when I repartitioned it last time.
Anyhow, I was wondering if there was any way to power through the conversion process without a computer, as I'm lucky if I ever get on the computer.
Thank you in advance, and I'm sorry for asking such a noob question.

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist but fortunately there is an XDA area dedicated to the Amazon Kindle Fire at http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire which would be a good starting place. I suggest you post your question with all relevant details in the friendly Q&A forum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire/help where the experts familiar with your device will be best able to guide you.
Good luck!
Thanks! I was a little lost here, I started out on the mobile app (which was hard to navigate) and then realized that I should have posted this another place.

Hello, i have a SM-N900P note 3 originally on sprint, now flashed to Boost Mobile. I bought it brand new. It has android version 4.4.2 and im wanting to update to Lollipop on either a official version, or unofficial....whichever more stable. I paid a person to flash it to boost and he did so remotely, ive attempted to contact him for information on his process but have not been responded to. It is rooted and has TWRP and a full nandroid back up.
Please help me, im scared to try flashing a rom then ruining the ''boost flash''.
I can attatch pictures from my About Device if safe and helpful.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Paying someone to alter your device has left you in a position where you have a modified phone but no knowledge on how it got to that state or how to proceed. I firmly believe that if you can't take the time to learn how to do these things for yourself then you shouldn't be doing them at all. Having a modified phone, and working with a modified phone, requires a certain level of knowledge, it requires research, it requires work. Now you can see that taking the easy way initially hasn't really benefited you in the long run. Anyway, you have a lot of learning to do, Samsung phones can be especially difficult to modify due to the way that they're locked down. You're going to need to head over to the Sprint Note 3 section and start doing as much reading as you can. I can't really point to one specific thread because there's so much information that you need to take in. If you get stuck though there's a q&a section that you can ask for help in. Here's a link to the Sprint Note 3 device forum:

Lol look man, I am very familiar with flashing stock Roms and custom roms. As well as most other device modifications. I reached out for advice in hopes of hearing someone's output that may have already done this type of procedure.with that being said,if I can afford to pay someone to do what I may simply not have TIME to do,then that's my prerogative. These forums are to help people, not to write a reply that is in no way helpful. Maybe you should be the one that needs to do more reading. ☺??
P.s.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 flashed to Boost Mobile and pay only $35 a month, I'd say I was very benefited. Lmfao ???? You mad bro? ???

You came here for help and yet you LOL at the help....
Sounds like you take your device back to the carrier and stay stock but you also stated you are familiar with flashing, and yet you are "scared".
And sounds like you should be doing the reading, after all you came here to ask, vice searching and reading for yourself. Nevertheless
Good Luck and Thread Closed.

Hello,
timmaaa pointed you in the right direction, and as he suggested you will get more help posting your question in the device specific forum.
XDA Assist is not a "Support" forum it is to guide new users to areas they can find the help they need.
Please post your question in the link above or the Sprint Note 3 Q&A section to get the answer/help you are looking for.

Hello all,
I'm fairly new to the tablet scene. I have a Kindle HD6 but wanted something running plain Android, not KindleOS. Enter the tablet in the subject line. $50 for a 1024x600 IPS display with 8gb storage, 512mb ram, it was just too much to pass up. I have been messing with it, and overall its fair to good (especially for the price!). But, I am having a heck of a time finding information on rooting it. This is the exact tablet:
everbuying.com / product743323.html
I'd like to be able to move apps to the sd storage, setup a web server it (accessible via hot spot) and things like that. I have a decent Linux background, but tablets are mostly new to me. If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd sure appreciate it. Googling for things like "rk3126 root" and "h701 root" are getting me nowhere fast. Thank you so much!
Thank you for using XDA Assist. I think you got what you paid for. There's really nothing on XDA about your device. Try asking your question here,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2259645

Thank you! I will do exactly that

I believe a relative attempted to install via oden, A Verizon based module on this phone using odin. I am so unlearned about the android os that I do not know the terminology even to use here. Not complaints but just info, I am now victim to two arsons and thus homeless and rebuilding and so little time this is first chance I have had to post about this in some time.
I am not very adept at finding articles here so would appreciate any help any can provide.
I wish to and will learn all there is to know about Android some time in future and will master most of it except programing.
For now any help with any post or articles or what have you would be appreciated as well as any live help should someone so care to provide
You are welcome to PM or email me as well. [email protected].
If I am allowed to post this, I would consider paid help as well. If not allowed to post any part of this or if in wrong area, please help me correct my actions.
Thank you all in advance.

Hi,
Here is a thread on returning your device to stock with Odin, http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...mware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937
And as far as wanting to learn about Android and the things found on XDA, my only advice is to read read read. There is a lot of info out there, just search on terms or procedures you are curious about and read through the search results.
For your device, you can start with this thread to learn more about it... http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/guide-to-note-4-wip-t2939288
You can ask questions there as well!
Good luck!
Ty, Darth. Sorry for my noobness. I cannot seem to locate in the reccomended thereds, any thing about USCelluar phones or any link to any Rom, Kernal or what ever it is called. I do now know odin was improperly used and possibly a verizon upload was made to the phone and then on panic odin was ran and all possible options tried like flash tlock partition and any other options except pit.
I have not a clue where to start to fix it. I have been reading but if I seen any possible solutions, I missed them. Can someone please point me to some factory iriginal files for the USC NOTE 4 and some knowledge of how to use them? If some other files would work, where verizon or what have you, glad to try that to. The phone in question has never been on line or assigned any phone number since new. Not sure that matters. I do not mind messing it up further or experimenting to learn or help devs if any needed.
Thanks
Gh
I suggest then asking about your device here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/noob-friendly-question-t2866810
But I will tell you... Reading and research is a part of this hobby. Without doing a lot of that, people end up with big problems usually.
Here is the main note 4 section, I recommend reading through some of the sticky threads in the general and Q&A sections. Those are the threads at the top with a thumb tack symbol beside them. :good:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4
After you've read up and know a little more, then I'd worry about roms and whatnot. And any further questions can be asked in the first thread I linked in this post.
Good luck again!
I am confident in only big solutions. I thank you for your kindness and patience. I am only sorry that I do not know a rom from a kernal or a brick for now. I regret, I am not smart enough as well to follow the links so well or derive from then when I can. I do have unbreakable tenacity however and never lose a war due to it. The outcome for me is obvious but the time frame not so nice to me as I will not have time to read much for some months and now seek a quuick fix for a quick fix of feeling human again, for now. Any advise for a direct link to some adb and fast boot drivers? Seems this may be the sutipn and not odin for now. Seems I need to get what ever the file is called into the phone or files to recover to as mine goes to recovery every time but then losds the bum files it has stired. Would be nice to know how to idenify the files but all in good time.
You will need to ask in the threads provided. Xda Assist is here to help navigate the site, not for support.
If you have no time to read, and want things done quick, then I suggest to you that your heading down a risky path... And your device could suffer.
Also, XDA is a place to learn and share... Without doing your part here, meaning reading, you will have trouble getting people to help.
Thanks, and thread closed.
noob trying to get some xp and gain some knowledge.
i have the Amazon Kindle Fire 2nd gen running sysv 10.5.1
i have root access (kingroot, newest version. gained access once, then did factory reset, and did it again. kingroot stayed on HD after reset. idk why)
tested both times with es file mngr to ensure true / permissions
removed bloatware and advertisement apps. disabled some start-up processes snagged a couple of cool *root* apps and what not on the first go around.
only gained / access after the "factory reset" to not disturb too much and possibly fubar the whole gig when i'm so close to the goal
ultimate desired state atm is cm-11 (for otter2) TWRP 2.6.3.1 with some cool ass apps and blahblahblah
this is the guide im about to follow https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_otter2 with the exception of the cable thing. i feel fairly confident that i can fastboot without it since i have superuser abilities and ive read several places that its doable but much safer and easier with the "sudo" cable. im a big boy. im willing to take a chance but if its not possible without the cable of paramount capabilities then it would be asinine to brick my **** "cuz i figurd it wud werk alright"
Sorry to be so long winded. just trying to be well detailed to make sure you guys know where i'm at in my little adventure.
So finally to the question
i've read two very different opinions on this from multiple people, in multiple threads, on multiple forums, etc.
is fastboot mode or state (however its referred to) achievable on the AKF(2ndGen) v10.5.1 as / without that eversofrustrating cable? like, is there a credible dev out there that says "yeah, dudes. f*** the cable. i just make it sudo whatever i tell it to" not necessarily verbatim but, you're smart, you know what im getting at.
simply put CAN IT BE DONE!?! (really im just trying to flash a rom on something that my wife wont remove my right testicle for bricking just to get a feel before using the fancy new trick discovered for LG G3 VS985. super excited. just the tot to 10 then kdz to 12 whatever whatever has me only slightly perspiring)
thank you for your time patience knowledge and inconceivable willingness to help losers like me who have a linux literacy of the 3rd grade on a good day. you guys are so awesome.
and im not just saying that. i swear
hello,
Welcome to XDA.
I have a KFHD7(1st Gen), the customization process involves installing a 2nd bootloader. I'm not familiar with the 2nd gen though.
Look through the Kindle fire forum linked below and see if there is anything to help you, you'll need to look through the "Android Development" and the "Original Android Development subforums there for all the custom mods for that device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd
If you can't find what you are looking for then you can post your question in one of the Kindle fire Q&A forums linked below(whichever applies to you).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd/7-inch-help
or
http://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd/fire-2-help
or

If those don't help then try posting your question in the forum linked below.

The experts there may be able to help.
Remember to register an XDA account so you can post and reply in the forums. Good luck.
Okay so I hope I'm posting in a suitable area (I was debating to post here or in the Questions and Answers section). I don't usually use forums much but I try to be as respectful as I can as not to upset anyone or waste anybody's time. I'll put the important info in bold in case you don't want to read all the details. Getting to the point, I've looked several times on google and youtube but I never get a clear answer to this and I've watched dozens of youtube videos about the basics of rooting and what you should and are supposed to and not supposed to do however I still can't get an answer. I have a Samsung Galaxy Go Prime at least that's what all of my manuals say but after searching about rooting I've come to find that it's either closer related or the same as a more popular Samsung Galaxy Go phone. I've rooted it using the King Root app twice now because every time I turn the phone off it does the "seandroid enforcing" boot loop thing and both times I've restored the stock ROM, as I've heard it called, using Odin and used King Root to root it again. Now maybe I'm just an idiot but I don't think it should be doing that, or am I wrong, or am I doing something wrong?. I used to use an Iphone and I know that jailbreaking could be tethered and untethered, however I'm not sure if it is the same with android and rooting (or for that matter exactly what rooting does) as I have just recently switched. If anyone could find a youtube video explaining all of this too me that would be really helpful as all the ones I have come across while trying to find a solution are either really outdated or sharing knowledge about a particular type of phone. I will admit that I don't know very much about rooting because all sources I've tried to learn from either didn't explain anything or did not explain it well enough. The original intent for rooting my phone was to make use of my SD card, considering that the internal storage is only 8gb and the phone outright refuses to use my 32gb microSD for anything. I manually moved all of my files to my SD using the stock "My files" app on the phone and it didn't clear up much space. After rooting it I tried to use an app called "Link2SD" which unfortunately only moves part of an app to my SD and not the entire app, so if anyone knows a better solution to this problem as well that would be a great help. Thanks for any and all information and assistance, I really appreciate you and your time. :good:
