[WORKING ROOT] How to root Amazon Fire HD 8 & 10! (NOT 5th Gen / 2016 model)

Hello everyone,
A fellow XDA member found that KingRoot now supports Kindle Fire HD 8 and Kindle Fire HD 10 on 5.1.1 as of 02/07/16! It is very easy, go to www.kingroot.net on your device, install the latest version (ignore any security warnings) and click root! You may want to install SuperSU etc. Disable OTA.
I have to go now, just wanted to make sure everyone knew the root is out and working!

Just tried it 3 times on my Fire HD 8 running 5.1.1. Didn't work for me

Yeah I already had that installed. Go figure Kingroot worked after I opened the store and google settings once more.

PM me for extra help, make sure you get the latest version.

while your bash was useful, you may need to step back for a bit.

used kingroot which successfully rooted my kindle fire HD 8 but then when i went to switch launchers its all gone wrong.
I copied the fire.launcher file to my sdcard then went back to remove it so i could use Google Now.
I then realised the Google Now app wasn't working as it was asking me to update Google Apps. so i copied the fire.launcher back into the sys folder i found it.
Then i lost launcher and could only access apps via the recent app tab.
so i rebooted and now it loads with no launcher.
I cannot do anything now.
ive tried rootjunkys unbrick method and it doesnt work for me.
Anyone got any suggestions

Do you have adb installed and working? We can try a few commands, you need to install Google apps in order to get now launcher to work. Your tablet is fine we just need to get adb shell command working. Use rootjunkys script for install play store.

My message didn't get posted. Odd. If you need help don't be afraid to message us.
Edit:
If adb is installed.
Open command prompt. Type "adb shell". Then type "su".
It should say [email protected]
Now type this in.
Code:
pm install -r com.amazon.firelauncher
If it says install success, type "exit", then type "exit" again to get out of adb shell.
Now reboot your device.
If it fails let me know.
If you don't have adb installed, youtube how to install adb shell.
I have rootjunkys script on tip, Tricks, and the Root post.

Hi, thanks for the response.
Yes I have adb installed and yes I have Google apps installed I've been using rootjunkys super tools. I'll try your adb shell method

Ive manage to get ES file explorer installed and when i go to the com.fire.launcher folder its empty.

sorted it.
Copied the fire launcher apk into the download folder while connected to my laptop. found it in ES file explorer and installed it.
now all working i guess in the process of trying to add a new launcher it must have copied the folder back but not the content.
phew!!! thanks for your help

Glad you figured it out

Didn't Work
I have the Google Play Store and framework. It just does not work.

It doesn't seem to be working for me either. I also have GApps and Framework installed per rootjunky's script.
Edit: About 10 minutes after posting this it just worked. I did the exact same operation I was doing, but this time it succeeded.

Some users have had to try it a few times, mine worked on the first. I made sure adb shell worked and if you can update the Google framework then try kingroot.

So it means that kingroot is harmful for device?
is there another way to root called adb shell? how does it work?

no kingroot is ok
problem was in steps for replacing launcher
there is no other known way to root

No king root is fine. I just managed to balls up replacing the launcher. I had google now launcher installed but I didn't have Google apps installed correctly. Since fixing my issue I have now successfully replaced fire launcher with Google Now launcher. Which is better but it still needs a better OS. Finding the fire OS very laggy and I can't install the latest versions of some apps. Using kingroot with purify has helped performance in my opinion.

I would not try directly installing Google now launcher, because it a little tricky sometimes
I install another launcher first, remove stock launcher, then install Now launcher
Sent from my Motorola XT1060 using XDA Labs

Hi There, I have done just that, disabled the fire launcher, then the Nova was activated automatically. Afterwards, I installed the Google launcher and the Google app, uninstalled the nova launcher, reboot.. Now my kindle is stuck in "fire" logo and refuse to start. I cleared the cash partition also didn't work.. Any advice?

[Working] Xposed Framework on Fire HD 8 (6th Generation)

Hello! I have managed to get Xposed Framework working 100% on my rooted Kindle Fire HD 8 2016. My apologies if I posted in the wrong forum or incorrectly titled this thread as I am new here.
The following method I used is as follows.
1. Downloaded the Xposed Framework installer located at:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/material-design-xposed-installer-t3137758
2. Get some sort of File Explorer app. I personally recommend ES File Explorer.
2. Install APK normally with either browser or file manager app (ex: ES File Explorer)
3. Open app and go to official tab.
4. You should see something that looks like xposed-v87-sdk22-arm, next to it there should be a little downward facing arrow.
Click on it.
5. Select xposed-v87-sdk22-arm64 from the dropdown menu.
6. Click on Install or Install/Update
7. By now you should see a little console window popped up displaying that there was an error finding "app_process64". This is normal.
8. Go to home screen and open your File Explorer app.
9. Navagate to /system/bin/ and delete the file: "app_process64_xposed"
10. Reboot your tablet ("Optimizing System blah blah blah" is normal when booting.)
11. Open the Xposed installer app we downloaded earlier
12. If you see a green box with a checkmark in the middle it worked!
13. Go give coltxL2717 a big ol' thanks over on his post at:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70607706&postcount=4
He's the real MVP!

what kind of xposed tweak would you recommend for this tablet?

Thank you for this! Rooted. Installed the framework which was needed first and have now installed Xprivacy module. Important to control what applications can and cannot access (location, network, identity, accounts, etc.)

Has anyone tried this on the older model?

What module is working to modify the home button to launch a new launcher app instead of returning to the Fire OS home screen?

@coopmaster Confirmed also working with HD 8 (5th Generation), buy using arm only; not the x64 or x86 and no further deletion is needed.

Yes, exactly fine. But make sure not to test every Xposed module cz it might soft brick your Fire !
I recommend 'GravityBox [LP]' as it has pretty extensive features.

Get the [LP] Lollipop version.

I got it working by choosing soft reboot from the xposed installer menu

If someone could help me with a module to change nova launcher prime that'd be great!

"app_process 64 xposed cannot be deleted"
Using ES
Update: Woops, forgot to enable Root Explorer.

Hey, I am stuck at the step where I have to choose the framework. I only have xposed-v89-sdk22-arm64. How do I get v87?
I read that v89 works and used it.

v89 downloads then when the popup to install appears, the app freezes and i'm booted back to the desktop...

i broke it
So, i'm pretty sure i messed up the process, i selected the wrong option from the drop down and it gave me an error. Once i restarted the Fire 10, it's now stuck in bootloop. (fire logo). I tried logging in to the recovery (vol Down+power) but it doesn't let me and restarts.
The tablet was rooted, and had google apps installed.
Any suggestions to get it back?

Ugg, same thing happened to me. I followed all the directions after rooting. Stuck at "Fire" logo as well.
Had to boot into recovery and flash stock image (5.6.1.0) to get working again......
UPDATE - 2nd time around all went well. First time I couldn't delete the file using ES, so I just figured I'd reboot first.... Bad idea. Make sure you delete the file first (Enable Root Explorer in ES if it says it can't be deleted)

How to remove Viper4android drivers

Hi all, I've had quite a few issues with Viper4android, including extreme battery drain (since installing my phone will drain from 80% to 0% overnight with no use), and inconsistent volume in various apps (Spotify only has about 60% volume output with random bursts to 100%).
How can I remove all of its components and revert back to stock? I'm guessing it's more involved than just reflashing the stock rom, perhaps I need radio files + others too
My phone is a Samsung s6 edge plus (SM-G928i).
Thank you all, and apologies if this is in the wrong place!

Actually, its much easier than reflashing your ROM (though that would work fine too)
All you have to do is hit the menu button/3 dot icons>uninstall drivers>reboot. And you're done.

This just removes the drivers, uninstalling the app after removing drivers and re-enabling your stock audio(if you had to remove/disable it), this should put you back to stock.

By extracting a copy of the audioFX apk from your stock firmware
Or
By extracting it from a nandroid backup if you have one
Or
Find someone with your device and have them upload a copy of it.
Or
Find a copy with a Google search for:
"Audiofx.apk(or whatever the stock audio is called on your device) for (your model number and firmware version)
FYI, you would have had to manually remove or disable your stock audio yourself. It wouldn't have happened automatically, so if you yourself didn't remove/disable it then you probably don't have anything to worry about.

Did you flash V4A via recovery? Or did you install the app manually?
If you don't see the stock Equalizer in your app drawer then it was probably removed during installation of V4A (when done via recovery) but if it was installed manually then the equalizer app should still be installed/visible in your app drawer. All you have to do is open the app and toggle the on/off button.
If the app was removed though, you'll have to reflash your ROM to get it back.
NB 1. If stock EQ was already enabled, you might wanna disable it and give V4A another shot. As I've personally experienced issues with both of them enabled.
NB 2. Uninstalling the drivers practically kills the app. But you can go ahead and uninstall it as recommended by @Droidriven

I flashed a recovery file for it. So I might just take the easy route and reflash my rom I might give it another crack when I get my new phone in April / May!

Yep, my installations on all devices I've had have been via app which required me manually removing/disabling stock audio.
I've encountered installations on some devices that required using terminal emulator or adb shell to implement correctly, slightly tricky stuff that I don't remember the details for.

Just flash your ROM and you should be fine. Keep in mind though that any other additions/modifications you made to your system partition will be overwritten.

Uninstall Flashed App - Viper4Android
Hey folks,
I am new to xda and so this question might not be appropriate for this particular thread -- I don't know, I guess I'll take my chance. So, upon rooting my android device last week I went ahead and downloaded the Viper4Android audio enhancer as a zip, and installed it through the TWRP recovery terminal. This flashed the app on the phone drive. However, the Viper4Android driver is not installing properly and all my attempts to fix that are going in vain, thus I think the best solution is to uninstall the app and install a new package following a specific xda thread instructions to the letter. So my question is how do I uninstall a flashed app? I can't seem to find the app folder when the installation files are located. The app is present in my app menu. I am a root user and have directory apps like Root Explorer, Magisk Manager, BusyBox, RomToolbox etc. Btw, I've read most of this thread, and it mainly discusses the removal of the drivers. (Which I presume never installed in my phone anyways, as Viper4Android never worked -- hence why I am looking to uninstall the whole thing, and try anew). I have a Moto g5 plus.
How should I proceed? What's the best tool to uninstall a flashed Viper4Android App?
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,

Settings Force close

I installed a new version of the settings app (I'm assuming from the OnePlus 7) and now it only Force closes. Any suggestions on how to downgrade it? I can't access the app info. I'm not rooted and don't want to. I also can't access recovery because I guess my phone is encrypted and asking for a password but I never set it.

What did you download, from where? What OS? Substratum (this could be it if your themed)? Logs?

It's the OnePlus settings app from apkmirror. No root or mods or themes. Open Beta 18

Hi,
I had the same issue as you but I was rooted and had TWRP. I tried to install OOS 9.0.5 again but it didn't worked...
So the last idea I had was to boot on the second partition.
And it worked.
You can try to boot on fastboot and type : "fastboot--setactive=_a" or "fastboot--setactive=_b" to switch partition and reboot. It should work for you too.

Oh that's a good idea. I ended up getting one of the app uninstaller apps from the play store and was able to uninstall the settings update.

Nope.

Nope.

No idea. I'll maybe look into it. But it's not something that immediately hits me as "hey I can do that". I'm incredibly lazy and stoned a lot (stage 3 colon cancer survivor). So keep that in mind lol

Well dang, I still can't get call screening even with this. That's the only feature I truly missed when I left pixel 2 xl for a op7pro. I just have the worst luck trying to get it back.
Also I had a super nice stable device on 9.5.13 with root and a lot of nice things and the only reason I even went to 10 was the other thread said it was working on 10 and xxx said it worked on 10 and now I've been on 10.0.1 for 3 days and it's the buggiest thing I've used ever

It's incompatible with your set up or you didn't follow the directions. (I'm not angry). But I've posted screenshots proving it works
So try eliminating variables till it works.

Well I am on the T-Mobile version converted to international so mine is the gm1915 which you already said might not work. I completely clearer out every magisk module I had, rebooted to a stock rooted phone and things were fine, installed your first module, rebooted things were fine, installed the companion module and get a bootloop. Thankfully I have twrp and uninstalled the companion module and now it boots. I just have a gut feeling it's not going to work on here and I REALLY hate wiping my data so I'm just going to wait and see if someone else makes a breakthrough on the gm1915 model

I completely clearer out every magisk module I had, rebooted to a stock rooted phone and things were fine, installed your first module, rebooted things were fine, installed the companion module and get a bootloop. Thankfully I have twrp and uninstalled the companion module and now it boots. I just have a gut feeling it's not going to work on here and I REALLY hate wiping my data so I'm just going to wait and see if someone else makes a breakthrough on the gm1915 model

Well you didn't follow the instructions. You didn't install Google phone. Please reread.
If you don't install Google phone before flashing the companion. It won't boot.
I provided clear instructions. Follow them and you'll get call screen.
How to install (Magisk Manager or TWRP):
0. Uninstall kirisakura kernel companion, it's included.
1. Install "Anxious7Pro_v*.zip".
2. Reboot.
3. Install google phone apk from apkmirror or just use the apk in the companion module.
4. Set up google phone, i.e. grant all permissions (including "Draw over other apps" and "Modify system settings"), set as default phone app, open app and set up available features.
5. Install "Anxious7ProCompanion_v*.zip".
6. Reboot.
7. Profit.
Also you should pretty much always have BusyBox installed if you're rooted.

I have no idea what kirisakura kernel companion is, but is compatible with Smurf kernel? Could that be my problem?
I also had Google phone installed before I did this, I preferred it over oos dialer from the start

You should follow the instructions. If it says install Google phone, you should do that. If it's already installed that means you should uninstall to install. And it's just a handful of shell script commands. It is NOT the issue.
I'm not trying to be difficult. But you've twice not followed the instructions. If you don't follow them. It won't work.
The instructions were set up specifically for this. The non-boot that is caused by Google phone being installed as a system app prior to being a user app. I have no idea why in hell that would cause a non-boot. But it does. As I said I am very lazy. I did everything I could to make this a one and done module. So I wouldn't have to provide much support.
Kirisakira companion is listed as feature but I actually rewrote it and that will probably be put into the original mod from freak07. It's just to emphasize not needing to install both.

I think it's ridiculous it requires instructions but it's the only consistent way I've found to get all the listed features working. Please please please ? ?? read them carefully and follow them. Meaning the below paragraph is the ridiculous part btw.
It makes no sense Google phone causes a non-boot when installed as system app first. Even in a module by itself. It causes that.
I spent a week figuring out the easiest way to do this. And I got it down to under 10 steps. Please follow them.
I even spent time leanring how the unity module template works ecause the companion module is unity. And I'm really lazy.
Simplified instructions
How to install (Magisk Manager or TWRP):
0. Uninstall Kirisakura kernel companion and Google Phone, if both/either are installed. Reboot if you uninstalled.
1. Install "Anxious7Pro_v*.zip".
2. Reboot.
3. Install google phone apk from apkmirror or just use the apk inside the companion module.
4. Set up google phone, i.e. grant all permissions (including "Draw over other apps" and "Modify system settings"), set as default phone app, open app and set up available features.
5. Install "Anxious7ProCompanion_v*.zip".
6. Reboot.
7. Profit.
If you don't follow the instructions, you'll probably end up in a non-boot/bootloop.

@TotallyAnxious I will post here. I will be doing clean install of Beta 4 in a couple of hours, and post feedback here. One question though... I am a beta tester for Google Phone. Should I not use it, and instead install the nodpi version of latest .APK that you linked?

Didn't you just confirm it works with that screenshot? And I use beta too. But I have stable in the companion module and you can use any verison. I just don't want to provide a non stable starting point. I get less issues reported that way haha you'll learn overtime I consider how to minimize the effort I need to put into support beyond the OP. I'm incredibly lazy.

lol same here (lazy). But I think that testing your modules with clean beta 4 install is worth the time and effort.

I don't think it is but I haven't tried beta OnePlus software yet. But I doubt it's gonna be that different with a clean install. Can you post the screenshot here so people see it works? Until it's posted here, people can click the link to see it.
