Thanks!

Hi all,
I've been looking to root my kindle fire for a while now. I have been sideloading apps for several months now, but some of the apps I would really like are incompatible with my tablet.
I am running FireOS 4.5.5 on my 3rd Generation Kindle Fire HD. Note that this is a now relatively old tablet, as I believe it was released in 2013.
I have read and understand threads on how to root Kindle Fire 4th Gen running 4.5.5 and Kindle Fire 3rd Gen running 4.5.2, but I cannot find a suitable guide for my in between tablet. I don't feel comfortable winging it, since I am completely unfamiliar with Amazon's custom version of Android.
Unfortunately, the easy root path of upgrading to 5.0.n and then rolling back to 4.5.3 is unavailable to me, as the developer's version is not made available to 3rd generation tablets.
With this information, can anyone tell me how to root my tablet? I don't necessarily need a "noob step-by-step" guide, but at least a general outline would be appreciated.
Also, this is my first post; hopefully I'm following all the rules and regulations!
Thanks!
ditto
I also am very interested in finding a successful way of root the same device. It seems this is maybe the only kfhd that hasnt been successfully rooted. I am a noob though and may need step by step response.
Hi everyone, I have a fire hd 8 5th gen and I would like to obtain root on it so I can install android on it. I just wanted to ask if it is possible to root this device and install android. I am asking you guys because I have not found a way to install android on it.
Anything helps, Thanks!

There's no way to do an exploit to root your Fire tablet, you can convert your old Fire HD 8 to digital clock.
You can buy a new Fire HD 8+ on Amazon and migrate your valuable contents and files (including Google APKs, photos, videos, documents, projects, and others) to a new Fire tablet.

Ok, thanks for the info. I have installed android on my fire 7 2015 so I still have a android tablet.
Let me know when there's a new hack to possibly install android.
Thanks for the info,

I don't know why you would buy a $100 fire hd tablet when you can buy a samsung Tab A for $150 that has android (my personal favorite kind of android) instead of doing all the crazy hacking to just get a stock version of android, I also looked at videos on how to actually install android on the new fire hd and you have to brick it and then do some other stuff which is very risky!

Well, I wouldn't drop a Benjamin on the clunky device you referenced (5th gen HD8 goes for $40 USD). As for Samsung's customizations you either love 'em or hate 'em. I fall into the latter category being an AOSP bigot.
tldr: Don't assume your tastes and hesitations are universally shared.
Hey y'all.
Firstly apologies if the answer to this is on the forum somewhere. Can't seem to find it!
I bought a Fire HD 8 12th gen for my daughter for Christmas on black Friday.
Going to unbox it this morning and set it up ready for her.
It's been a while since I had a fire HD but know I need to sideload Google services etc to get some of the apps she wants.
I know there were some initial issues with Sideloading on the newest version.....is this still the case?
Is there an idiots guide anyone can point me to?
Should I skip setup when booting it up and keep to the original firmware version? Will this help?
Thanks in advance all
