Question! I followed all of your videos and everything, except the Su binary won’t download. I have google play, taken off fire launcher and replaced with yours, rooted… Did root checker and it said it checked out and now isn’t. I do have kingroot(didn’t work) and it will not get off my fire. I think it is the source of the root not installing properly. Any suggestions? 5.1.1 Fire
Thanks for the packages and batch files – I couldn’t have done this without them!
I’m running SlimLP on teh 5th gen Fire tablet and it seems fine – except for two problems.
First, I can get a good install of the Kindle reader for android, and the tablet shows the correct Amazon account information. Still, I don’t have access to the e-textbooks stored on Amazon. Is there a workaround?
Second, I started with a 16GB micro SD card and everything was great. I now want to move to a 128 GB micro SD card. I dismounted the old card, installed the new, and now I can see the command “mount SD card”, but I just don’t get a result. Is there a limit on how large a card I can use?

same trouble as anthony. everything goes smooth but never see screen with option “2” to install. tried unplugging and a different usb cable that wasnt a fire cable.
Well, I used Flashfire and made a backup file.
Then I reinstalled CM12.1 and Gapp. When it booted up and got hung at “Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped” I
Gee, I wish could flash the backup from this USB connection, AND Gee, I wish I knew how to turn ADB Debug to on without the GUI.
I can get to fastboot mode. Does that help? Is this a brick yet?
On a 4th Gen HDX 8.9″ running 4.5.5
Well I managed to get through all the steps of installing Google Store. Everything looked great until I clicked the Store icon. “ERR RH-01” Did a ton of research, all the same fixes to no avail. They all suggested clearing cache and data, forcing stop then rebooting. I’ll survive if there is no work around but I thought I’d ask.
The Supertool is indeed super. Particularly for a newbie like me.
Two questions: is it currently possible — on a rooted Kindle Fire 7 inch fifth gen running OS 5.1.1 — to install TWRP? I desperately want to do a full device backup on my new Fire — and have been having no success at doing so to date.
Also, having been trying to run the Supertool option #4 to turn off Amazon OS updates — also with no success.
Whatever the answers, thanks for the tool. A very nice piece of work.
you can install twrp on 5.1.1 even on 5.0.2 you could only temp boot it
Second submittal. I have gone through all of the ADB install routines. The script for no. 7 seems to start but you never get the “running” note. If you hit the space bar, it says “waiting for device” and hangs there. What am I doing wrong?
well you go the adb drivers install which is great now get the fastboot drivers install to continue pass this point use option 1 to test if adb and fastboot drivers are installed
Has anyone realised how quiet the audio is through headphones on the new Fire 7″ tablet (3rd gen)? I’m guessing there’s software limiting the max output (volume boosting apps just cause the audio to compress and get mushy, not any louder).
Root Junky, is this anything that can be rectified at any point do you think? After using your Supertool to unlock this tablets true potential, this is a great buy but compared to the output of my other units, this is a little frustrating.
Look forward to hearing your thoughts…
Hi ther
I’ve got as far as the “Allow USB Debugging” prompt but after allowing I cannot get the next screen showing item 2 “Install google PLay Store” Please can you help me?
