Any Ideas anybody?

Greetings and welcome to xda. The signature verification error is normally an easy fix, we have a dedicated thread for the rom you are trying to install here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/orig-development/rom-cm-12-1-2015-11-15-t3249416/page369
If you ask your question in that thread I'm sure the experts will help you
Good Luck

Hi,

So panic over
many thanks
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.
i did also
hopefully something happens soon
I did it ! Big thank you for this post
I did too.
Feels good man
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.

Thanks @Michajin. That did it for me. Couldn't figure out for the life of me what I was doing wrong as I hadn't messed with TWRP in years but got it going.
