Yes. In your app drawer is an app called home. This is the default kindle launcher. Run it. Now your books will work and will continue to do so as long as the launcher stays in memory.
Hey guys,
Sorry I was travelling yesterday back home.
So, I do have paypal Stericson.g1 AT Gmail (email)

1. An undo option for launchers and the miscellaneous stuff.
-- Long press on an item to undo it
2. Reminder that if installing an alternate launcher, kindle books will no longer work.
-- I will add that, I wasn't aware that this happens, is this normal when replacing the launcher? Like does this happen if done manually?
3. A warning against updating any of the Amazon apps in google play store.
-- What should the warning say?
Hey,
Sorry, I don't check my messages very often but I got notified of this post.
You need to root your phone to use this application. There are some topics on how to do this in the kindle fire forums... Can't link you to any atm because I'm mobile.
RootTools.apk, and RootTools for that matter Is used by developers.
after seeing how horrible the Amazon Homescreen is and all that can be done to help improve the device I decided to write an application that would help users perform general tasks on the Kindle Fire HD after rooting it that would make their experience better
But isnt this app meant for use without rooting the kindle ....isnt that how its meant to be used ..coz i am a total noob and have no idea abt how to root etc ..and dont have anyone who can help ..i was wondering if there is astep by step guide for some one who has no idea how things work ? ...Mine is Kindle Fire 2nd gen ...i have seen only the " how to" posts for older versions of kindle....
There are tons of how-to threads out here. Specifically look for a lot of the threads with "Noob version" in the subject. Here's a couple to get you started. If you're looking for an automated tool that'll help you root, and some extra hand-holding from some generous contributors and forum members during the process, I'd highly recommend the first link and the KF First Aide tool. It'll also allow you to take a backup of your partitions before you start doing anything.... just in case.

obviously you don't have to read the entire thread, esp since the first one is nearly 130 pages long now. However start by reading the first page, paying particular attention to the first Original Post (OP), and then maybe the last 5-10 pages. And like all threads out here on xda, do make use of the thread's search capability if you have a specific question in mind as many of the same questions are asked (and answered) over and over again. (hehh they could probably use for someone to put together a FAQ or something.)
Best a luck to ya!

Stericson, I've already done all this and have no need for the app - but you hit it out of the park! You got a PayPal donate page?
"The free version will allow you to install Android market" ... but you have to download it from the market? How, if market isn't installed?
