5.1.4 may or not be downgraded, a couple of reports seemed that it could be downgraded, but it would be safer to wait...
5.1.3 and 5.1.2.1 cannot be rooted (27 April 2016)
but both can be downgraded to 5.1.2 (see restore firmware with stock recovery)
Root System Version 5.1.2
6 April 2016: Currently System Version 5.1.2 Root with
Kingroot KingRoot thread
then see rootjunky's supersume video

or manually install supersu with a terminal emulator

The option to download other apps seems to have been removed on the 2015 fire hd 10.
Anyone have ideas how to get around this?
Maybe it is too early?

How did you get this link? How do you know this is the correct firmware? I am sking because it is not yet linked from the amazon support web site. Thank you.
You can examine my other threads referred to amazon and you can see that I never wrong)
If this firmware incorrect - it just not install, no problem.
I did not mean to offend you. I just wanted to know how you found the link.
No problem) it has been published by mistake a week ago and were available about 10 mins
Official links to software updates http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201830190
In case anyone was wondering, I did a hash compare between the file originally posted by ONYXis and the file posted on the official Amazon website and they are the same.

By the way if it is not clear to newbies, if you are fortunate enough to get a phone with SU4.21 instead of SU6-x, do NOT, I repeat do NOT flash VZW-4.4.4-SU6-7-release-keys.xml
Because then you are taking a valuable phone that can unlock the bootloader and forcing it to upgrade and it can never be downgraded again to SU4 from SU6
ie. the SU6 cannot unlock bootloader at this time, the SU4 can via sunshine
you CAN root the SU4 but it is using a different file than in this thread

Hi!
I want to root my kindle fire 6.3.4 version but it doesn't work with the KFU 0.9.9. Could I expect a new version of KFU which will run with the version of my kindle?
Greetings XDA Team:
I've been looking all over the Internet (for a new article) in regards to installing a custom ROM on my brand new Amazon Fire HD8 Tablet but haven't been having any luck.
The current OS version on my tablet is 5.3.3.0 and I have the Fire HD8 6th Generation.
Could someone please guide me through the entire process of getting maybe Lineage OS or any compatible Android Custom ROM on my tablet please?
Looking forward to your kind assistance!
