http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2035334

It indeed works!

Thanks so much took a few tries but got it to work!

Hey guys, I have Kindle Fire HD 16gig, version 7.2.2. I managed to get as far as this..

adb shell
echo 'ro.kernel.qemu=1' > /data/local.prop

Until I get permission denied, anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks

Did you do the reboot in the right places? Might also try the HTC Sensation temp root which is based on this method. It provides 2 batch files to automate the temp root part. Just need to manually mount the filesystem as writeable and install SU binary and app.

I'm rooted and want to add Google Play but when I click on some of the needed downloads my monitor just keeps flashing and never completes the download. Any ideas?

Clarke33,

Hmmm, maybe your Internet Service provider is having trouble tonight. Try again tomorrow AM,

if you still have trouble call me anytime after 11am PST GMT -8.

The question was asked in the other forum and not answered. If I can change system permission why do I need to root my device? With the first command I get rm failed for /data/local/tmp, Permission denied. Makes sense. What Is the secret? What version of adb should I be using?

dockmon,

I am sorry for the delayed response, we were down for over 1 week. Anyway, How can you change system permissions, this is only allowed if you are Rooted.We go by the date. The current ADB is 01/05/2013, our Noob Guide has the latest software and ADB. If you go here:

You will be able to obtain the latest versions of the software. There is no secret, just some steps that take advantage of a known exploit in Android Ice Cream Sandwich. Rooting gives you power to do anything on your Kindle, it is worth taking the time to Root. We are back, responding to the posts now.

Hi prokennuxusa,

Can You tell me if I can use Your tutorial to root my new Kindle Fire HD 8.9 (System version 8.1.4_user_1413620)?

I just need a Google Play Store but if I understand correctly I first need to root my device to be able to do that...
