Is there anyway to downgrade my Kindle Fire from 5.3.1.2? I really want to root it.

Thanks for the report. I really need to root this damn thing!
my fire tablet (5.3.1.0) using mac
iv downloaded the supper tool. when it gives me the options 1-8 i hit 1 to instal google play store i hit enter it then asks me for a password. i have no password on my device please help
The password you’re being prompted for isn’t the device password, it’s the password for your user account on your Mac. The upload procedure needs to run with elevated privileges, so needs you to type in your Mac password.
Rootjunky, can we root Amazon fire 5th gen on 5.3.2.1 yet?
I have 5.3.2.1 and have so far managed intall the play store and king root. King root won’t root after many attempt’s.
Have you had any luck with this yet? I also got King root installed but rooting fails everytime. Thanks.

Hello to All,
I tried to downgrade my Kindle fire 5th gen from OS 5.1.3 to 5.1.1 and the result is totally not responsive device (i should read all the warnings before i did that ….)
Now I can’t power up the device, also there is no result when i connect it with the factory cable. When i plug it to the USB i can hear the typical short sound for new device connection, but right after it get disconnected again.
Please let me know if there is any way to restore the device.
Thank you
I wish I could help you
