We should make a YouTube video tutorial for using version 2.1.6. I really think it might help people with rooting. Anyone wanna make one?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Hey guys, just as an update... If you ever had any problems at all, 2.1.7 should fix them. We figured out nearly every problem had to do with timing. We now have it fixed and it should (should does not mean will) work with no problems. If you do have problems, go ahead and email me stevepink8@gmail.com
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Anybody have suggestions of new features? We've thought about having an optional TWRP recovery install (you would have to download the recovery manually from Team Win because we couldn't get permission to use it). I've been dreaming about add ons like, a "Now that you're rooted guide" and "How to install your first ROM". If you have a suggestion just post it!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] D8nkE:
I used this last night to root my new KF. Mac was a fresh install of Lion lastnight. Couldn't get ADB to connect with tool. Device couldn't be found. I manually installed the SDK and ran tool again and everything worked great. Other then the initial hiccup, this made everything really easy. Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Glad it worked for you! You may want to uninstall the SDK... It takes up a lot of space if you aren't going to use it again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Ok guys, 6.3 is out! Time to automate pokey's fast boot root method... Northmendo, email me and we can get started. I'm thinking about making two separate KindeWaters, one for 6.1.0-6.2.0 and one for 6.3
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
Pokeys fbmode works on all, so make one for all with that!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
What's the point of burritoroot's exploit if fast boot works on all? I see that burrito root is a little faster/easier but really I don't think there's even a need for it. I'd looked at pokey's fast boot method in the past but I didn't really mess with it much. I still want to keep the burrito root edition of KindleWater but, I like your idea of an app for all versions that uses the fast boot method.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Ok! I got pokey9000's permission to use his fastboot files! Tomorrow I'll start working on everything.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
6.3 root is going well! I haven't tested it yet because I'm cleaning things up to make sure I don't brick my kindle because of an error. I have almost everything in place but I want to verify it before the release.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jocampbe:
So excited to try this! I got my KF last week and didn't realize the firmware would update without me having to hit "install" or "approve" or anything. Been trying everything but I can't get my drivers worked out on a PC, but the previous version of KindleWater returns my device number in ADB, so I'm very optimistic about this one!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Well adb will list any device. It's just the android debug bridge (aka adb). The exploit uses adb to get to the device but because the exploit was patched it won't do any good. I've almost got the new one just give me a few more days.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jocampbe:
That's just it... I can't get adb to recognize my kindle on any of the PCs I have access to, possibly because of a one click solution I used to root my GNex. Luckily I have a mac I can try this out on.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mjybarr:
This method worked great. Followed the OP step by step. The only hang up I had is when I first ran it, it didn't install FFF or a recovery. Ran the method again, and bam! It worked! I was on verison 6.2.2 by the way. Thanks devs for the easiest method. Highly recommended!

Sent from Pure meXdroidMod!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Glad it worked for you! The reason for your problem is timing... Some kindles or slower computers aren't ready for the firefirefire installation by the time it starts which causes it not to work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
So, I've decided to go with northmendo's idea and make KindleWater a part of breakdroid. It should be ready soon for those of you waiting to root 6.3!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
northmendo finally got the time to update BreakDroid! KindleWater is now included in BreakDroid and roots kindles running all OS versions you can download it at northmendo.com/breakdroid
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Bryan05:
I just got a replacement kindle and the version is 6.2 can I root my Kindle with this. It will be my first time rooting a kindle is there anything I need to know? Thanks guys

EDIT: it just updated itself to 6.3
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
It will root all versions... I just put 6.3 because every kindle that has connected to the Internet for more than 5 minutes has 6.3...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iphonedownload:
Kindlewater worked great. My Kindle 6.3 was a virgin until a few minutes ago when I ran it and installed superuser. Would like to use setitonfire, but choosing do all it does nothing and choosing do each individually it does this:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] stefantumi:
Could someone please help me. I started breakdroid and pluged my kindle in. I was goung to install the whole package. So the process begun. Whith in the first 4 minutes my sister unplugged the kindle be couse she needed it and took the mac with her to the u.s. now i have a kindle that only gives me the firefirefire logo and i cant do nothinf. Kf utility dosenr know what boot mode it is in. Bur adb igets connected. Someone,somethin?. Whatt to do?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
open breakdroid from the first screen, select kindle tools, then exit fast boot mode
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
KindleWater in BreakDroid 0.6.4 now has TWRP recovery and FireFireFire 1.4a so, you'll have the latest and greatest! :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Ok guys, I'm not gonna do much more updating other than necessary updates to fix patches in root methods... I am now focusing more toward Nexus 7 development...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Well guys, I'm not adding any features now but I plan on updating if the root method changes. It's been real, it's been fun, but it ain't been real fun! Just kidding, I've loved working on this project!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] LowaEastSide:
I would like to thank the developer of this ASUME software (or build), if it wasnt for this system for the MAC I would'nt have been able to flash any of these GREAT roms into my K.F. I tried effortlessly with my Windows XP laptop to no avail, once I followed the steps that was set forth to the letter it was a breeze. Big up to the DEVS and everyone that played a part in making this happend. For real, I'm truly GREATFUL to you ALL, now I can have my taste and sample all the great flavors of Ginger Breads, Ice Cream Sandwiches, and last but never the least Jelly Beans, I got a Tummy Ack from all these goodies I indulged in.. THANKS AGAIN.. ONE LOVE. LETS KEEP FLASH. P.S, now I love my Kindle Fuego ALMOST as much as my TMOBILE 7'' GALAXY TABLET (O.G)..... :)))))))
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Glad to hear that! It's stories like this that make me want to keep doing this! Rooting shouldn't be exclusive to only experienced people!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stage:
Thank you Steve for helping get my device rooted!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
You bet, Stage!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Well folks, I'm redoing some timing scripts to see if I can make the root faster... I'll see how it turns out...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Bryan05:
Does this method still work? I really want to root my kindle
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stage:
Worked perfectly for me. Are you using a first generation kindle?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Bryan05:
Yeah I think it is first generation. Any way to make sure?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stage:
It should work as long as it's not a Kindle HD
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
Well, I may be selling my Kindle Fire soon... This project was truly great. I just want to thank northmendo for helping me out along the way. I also want to thank all the users for using it. This project has really inspire me to do a lot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zach.xtr:
Anyone have this work on the Kindle Fire 2nd generation software version 10.2.4.

I just bought a pair for my kids with the plan of rooting them yet no method has worked for me? Although it has been a while I am familiar with bash and adb...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ST3P_2:
It won't work on any Kindle's other than the first generation Kindle Fire. I wanted to make a new version for the newer Kindles, but time and the money to buy a new Kindle are non-existent for a college student.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lildodoo:
So I sent in my Prime in on January 25th, mainly for non-existent WIFI, GPS, and light bleed. I was assured it would take no longer than 10 business days for repair. Well, obviously 10 days came and went and my Prime's RMA status was still "waiting".

So after 2.5 weeks I emailed Gary to help me push it through RMA and he forwarded it to Hai Tran. They are both really a big help. Hai has continued to help me get my prime replaced ASAP. I finally received my replacement today and when I opened it I find a TF101, WTF!!!!! So I called customer service to get it resolved and was told that my serial number is a TF101 number, so there is nothing that he could do. I then asked to speak with a supervisor, and asked why didn't they look into the serial number being a TF101, when they are working a TF201. I told her unless they robots working in there they should have seen it was a TF201. Her reply to me is that the repair center can't tell them apart because they both look identical and can only go by serial number. I told her that's like me drawing 2 zeros on all my dollar bills and spending it like it's $100, stupid.

But, OMG.....REALLY, the TF201 and TF101 look identical. Give me a break, even my 5 yr old son asked me why I received a different tablet in the mail today. I spent 5 mins arguing with her about the two being very different, and she still insist on the 2 being identical.

So now I am stuck with a TF101 and hopefully Hai or Gary can help sort this out for me. I for sure will not waste another second of my life on the phone with the service center, as they completely oblivious as to what products they are providing support for.

Sorry for my rant, just needed to vent my fustration.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] David522d:
where did you buy it from, proof of purchase?

thats crazy if they left you hanging on that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
Uber fail. Sorry for your bad luck my friend.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anti09:
That... is actually pretty ridiculous, I'm sorry man. I thought it was bad enough when Sammy's lawyers couldn't tell the difference between an iPad and a GTab from 10 feet away; but a service center not being able to differentiate between two very different products, both of which they supposedly service? That's pretty shocking.

Edit: This may explain why so many people have ineffectual RMA service... fixes probably won't work if you think they're for a different device =P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
Lol I had a good laugh. That's so terrible it sounds unbelievable.

Damn Asus, I didn't realized you were that much of a ****up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Wow.

Somebody's family member at that service center has a Prime recently fixed of its light-bleed and connectivity issues :D

That's awful. It's things like this that make me 100% certain that if I had to send my Prime in I would photo and video record the process. I guess at this juncture you even need to take photos of your serial on your box, tablet, and in your settings screen :eek:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
lol! I just sent my tf101 in for repairs yesterday, crossing my fingers that I get a TF201 back in the mail.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Expect them to ask for proof of purchase. Receipt, box, serial number, and other proof. Only fair as anybody could make a claim like that to try to get a new device. Good luck getting it all sorted out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lildodoo:
I emailed them copies of my receipt, warranty card, and picture of the box and label with model and serial number.

I will update when I get a response from them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xsteven77x:
Seriously. That's unreal.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Oh just wait. Guarantee some people who don't unlock their bootloaders will get flagged as such.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gimik:
Jesus. I'm documenting the CRAP out of my prime as soon as I get home.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Well they did fix your wifi, gps albeit a totally different device so give them some credit lol. Man that sucks. Hopefully they wont deny their mistake and say you're lying.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lp_stealth:
Unbelievable, even if its a 1 off mistake which i doubt with all the horror stories how can a company not see a difference. This gives me no hope in humanity.
[Galaxy S II General] Tyrany:
On the Atrix they managed to recompile the services.jar to use the tablet interface on phone and now they are working on a script that changes the interface when a hdmi cable is pluged.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1483221

Actually its easy to do but the phone app fc because of the low dpi

Just download the services.jar and paste it on system/framework with permission

644, then change dpi to 120 and reboot

To get back to phone, change back dpi to 240 and reboot

no. i bad esn is reported and kept in a file by sprint and asurion, you wont be able to use it. your only hope is to use it on something like boost or cricket, or sell it/use it for parts. im sorry that happened. always best to meet at a local store, the employees can check esns right there, before you hand over any money
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
no flash to stock wouldn't help. you could try calling sprint explain the situation and ask why its bad. if its because of an unpaid bill they might reverse it for you. if its stolen there are only illegal methods which you have to find yourself.

When you trade phones on sprint do it at a sprint store next time

Sorry to hear that happened OP. Years ago my friend bought a brand new, sealed Palm Treo off craigslist and found out it had a bad ESN when he brought it into Sprint. Turns out the package was stolen in the mail. It's not a good feeling. Next time use this site or check with Sprint before buying.

Glad I read this thread I didn't know about the esn stuff (I'm still new with Sprint) but it's a good thing to know about. I will have to keep that in mind if I ever look at grabbing a phone off of something like a 3rd party site when someone has already owned the phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ficjay:
I bought a treo off ebay wih a bad ESN. Turns out it was stolen althought the seller had some other story. I reported to the police and ebay and not only got my money back. The phone interestingly enough still had "mom's number" on it so I called mom and was able to get the phone returned to her daughter whom had it stolen from her stuff while in the pool. Doesnt Craigs list have some kind of safe guards for the peddling of stolen merchandise also?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
NO craigslist is basically just the wanted ads from your newspaper online....cost nothing to post and sell that is why people use it vs Ebay who charges a fee
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
No safeguards.... But there's nothing stopping the purchaser from reporting the seller to the police if they discover the merchandise is stolen.

---------- Post added at 10:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 AM ----------

Every phone on every carrier has an ESN... At least the CDMA networks do. I *think* the GSM networks use the IMEI in a similar manner.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tensux:
thats an awesome success story, money back and girl got phone back, only thing that could have made it better is if they caught the thief

happened to me when i purchased a HTC Incredible back in my Verizon days. i put mine up on craigslist, letting people know that it had a bad ESN number and some guy in europe took it off my hands for a very good price. put it up on ebay or look for a european online shopping site but be honest, don't be a hypocrite and let them know it has a bad ESN.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Put on craigslist they can flash to cricket or some other thing but you may not get what you paid....lesson learned
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Or a giant esn scam site ran by the Chinese so they can program your esn into their fake knock off phones. (Sarcasm)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Like what was said before, I was willing to do locally if I sold my 4s, meet at a sprint store so they could confirm the phone was good before buying it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deathtrip:
hahaha, well since I own the site, I can confirm we're not Chinese, or a scam. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d1msum4lyfe:
I've always had the buyers come meet me at an official sprint store and verified in front of them :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deathtrip:
That works well, if you're in the same town/city, or atleast within 15 minutes.

For others, who prefer to use Ebay, checking ESNs either by contacting the provider, or using a service such as CheckESNFree.com are their only option.

Is there a way to root the XWLA4 official stock kernel without flashing another kernel?

I found some threads in the forum but i couldnt find a way without flashing.

My phone specs are:

android version : 2.3.6

Baseband v: I9100XXKI3

kernel v: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWLA4-CL900411root@DELLBUILDER01 #2

build number: GNGERBREAD.XWLA4
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menace1234:
it's easier to just download Odin program then a CF-Root kernal that matches or similar to the one you have, putting phone in download mode connecting your phone, select under pda the cf-root-XX***.tar file and flash. You can do it in 5min. (SEARCH THIS FORUM)

If you going want to be with the big boys you have to be bold.

Search the forums, but the above is as simple as 123.

If all faills (which it shouldn't unless you have a messed up infected computer with a faulty usb cable) then you can just start again and flash a whole new stock firmware + pit file - also information available here in the forum.

Ps. remember to back up before doing it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
There are other methods .

Zergrush etc .

But why root do you need root to run something ???

Seriously, it's just great. I'm looking forward to all the surprises you can come up with in this kernel.

I agree. I would even suggest that he could include the stock touch screen driver. (if I'm not mistaken the stock ICS kernel has the driver made by franco which has this drawback of stuttery scrolling)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] MaKTaiL:

I just want a phone smooth enough for all other tasks.

See CM7 Nightlies for instance, that kernel has stock touchscreen and it's smooth as hell.
