NEW all in one "KINDLE ROOT TOOL"

davethebrave14 · Mar 21, 2014

Follow this community on awesome updates and development for the KFHD 2013 model. One of the moderators here is releasing a Kindle "tool" which will root, install a recovery, and return to stock system on your KFHD 2013 model. If your kindle is bricked or needs rooting this tool will do it all for you. Credits go to Gran PC and Kyleberry for developing this tool. He's planning to release it some time soon.

This is fake,if there was a recovery, hashcode would have found out by now,and would have made a cm.

its legit, he is a member here, and he has referenced the information in the OP a few times in this thread.. I am certainly monitoring his work since I've discovered it.

HAHA 'trolling' ! no we can already unbrick kindles and root every s/w version out there. Gran is putting together a tool to do so easily right now. keep an eye at the google plus community. We have a few screenshots of the work in progress

MarcoJoo · Mar 24, 2014

Ok. Sorry. I retract my assumption

It's nice to hear. Did he mean with "Recovery system", stuff like TWRP? So it would be possible to install custom FWs? That would be great!

Sorry,I just looked at it now! Seems cool,but the TV mode is worrying me...

Right now it will retore any s/w version to 11.3.2.1 stock, root, install gapps, fix the background bug, and we're working on using gapps and amazon appstores together. This device's bootloader cannot be cracked so Gran has porting TWRP or CWM to use as a second recovery, and booting a second kernel (like the motorola safestrap) on his to-do list, but it wont likely release with this option, as the priority is getting people unbricked

for now only "nandroid" like backups (the sys partition as bin) and restores.
Gran said he will take a look at twrp but right now before we try to modify any part of the system, we need a good restore tool.

His tool is not finished yet, for now only sys restore is ready in alpha stage. But better ask Gran

The next step is custom kernel (booted from original kernel) and maybe twrp.

If anyone of you is a developer and/or want to help, just join us and ask for permission to join the hangouts chat.

I am not a developer so I can not do much right now.

But we need help for

custom 2nd kernel booted from original via kexec (i think gran got the part booting the kernel, but the kernel itself is missing yet)
cwm/twrp ports (cwm untouched yet, gran took a look at twrp)
(maybe 2nd boot a different rom)
stable cm source for our device (4.4)
sw based boot into fastboot
xposed modules for stock (multimarket,navbar with recent app menu, ....)
oh we have a 855 mb cache partition, so keep in mind we cannot touch partition tables yet. If you can use the cache partition use it

Hope I don't forgot anything

Hi people,

First of all, sorry to disappoint, but I'm not a troll. I'm just a developer who was not exactly pleased when Amazon patched the root exploit

This tool can restore any device as long as you can boot into fastboot. If you can do that, you're golden.

Here's a link to the very very very very early alpha version for Windows.. it can only restore devices (doesn't have a root feature yet or anything else) and it's not entirely polished, but it definitely gets the job done. https://peniscorp.com/KindleRoot_dist_windows_0.1.zip

Here's the source code on GitHub... but since it's written in Lua it's pretty much included in the ZIP. https://github.com/GranPC/kindleroot

Hope you'll find it useful

Maybe the bootloader cant be cracked, but that doesnt mean we can't do a second bootloader. Right?

Woop woop.

Also, how can i make aosp settings stick after reboot? It always goes back to the stock settings app. (I'm installing aosp settings as an update to the settings app after turning off signature check in lucky patcher)

I just pushed it to /system/app and removed the stock one. It's not rocket science.

Mineturtle33 · Apr 17, 2014

Oh. I installedit as an update to stock settings after disabling sig check inlucky patcher. Maybe thats why.
