[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaparahia:
Hi

I rooted my KF and install GO Launcher with method that was discribed in first post. But this method is usless to install Google Play. How can I install GP? (Sorry for my English)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedarksavant:
So here's my wild ass guess (WAG). The fastboot "waiting for device" thing happened to me as well with my Fire (not a 2). My fix was getting root installed and getting it into fastboot mode on one computer then doing the fastboot commands and getting it out of fastboot on another computer.

I've seen posts where people get adb working and copy files with it, then issue a fastboot command, reboot the Kindle then fastboot can't see it anymore.

My WAG is somehow the USB drivers are confused by seeing a similar device but it's different enough for the driver to fail. The solution I've seen given to people on Windows is to uninstall and re-install the Fire USB drivers (I'm on Linux, so my solution was to install fastboot on my Powerbook and send the fastboot commands from it since it saw the device when Linux fastboot wouldn't).

These are probably just the rantings of a raving lunatic, but try to find another computer and see if you can run fastboot commands and get it out of fastboot.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmodek:
Sounds like you did the same thing as me. It's bugging me because I don't know EXACTLY what I did to finally get root access, I just know it worked! I had to reinstall drivers a couple of times and run the q program until it showed 'rooted'. Whatever I did, it worked and it's fun to mess with!

Kindle Fire 2

EDIT:

I was able to root my KFOT 10.2.4 and got Google Play, Calendar, and Gmail to work. Got ADW launcher to replace the default.

So, about a week ago, Amazon pushed an update that took my software to 10.2.6, which removed my root access and set my launcher back to their default.

The last root method that worked for me I found here.

My question is, will that method still work? (I assume it still works on the HD as well...)

On a side note, has the bootloader for KFOT been cracked yet? I'd like to get another ROM on it so I can use ICS in its full glory (if possible)

:good:

UPDATE v.1.6.2.4 [4-1-2013]

what's new:

-Improved launch time in root (it's really faster)

-One key uninstall for root

-Sort app

_________________________

- the app comes in 4 different flavours (5 considering the default Gray).

- all the file.type icons were done from scratch to match the minimal clean holo theme.

hey all!

am i the only one who loves the awesome ES File Explorer,but was never satisfied with the look of its UI?

it made me feel like this:

time ago,looking here on xda,i found this thread.

the mod was looking nice,but i was still not satisfied..furthermore the guy abandoned the mod.

so lately when i had a bit of time i modified even more the whole thing adding almost all the missing icons and folders,to make it look more minimal and HOLOish.

i thought it was nice to share it on here:

INSTALLATION:

if you want to keep your settings

:

1) do a backup of your current ES explorer with Titanium Backup

2) uninstall your current ES explorer

3) install the themed version and restore your previous ES explorer backup: DATA ONLY

if you don't care about your settings

then just uninstall your current version and install the themed one.

don't try to install the themed one over the original,it won't work,apps have different signatures.

in general

: you can install themed apk over the themed one,in the case you like to switch or try different flavours.

to go back to stock ES,you'll have to uninstall the modded version of course.

WHEN YOU UPDATE TO THE NEW MODDED VERSION YOU DON'T NEED TO UNISTALL THE PREVIOUS MODDED ONE

SETTINGS:

FOLDERS: go in settings--->theme settings--->folder style: choose YELLOW to get your custom color.

for all the versions the default style is always GRAY

if you then choose BLUE,you'll get blue folders except for net and lan shares,which will be gray due to the app limitations.

violet apk style options example

:

default: gray folders

yellow: violet folders

blue: blue folders (lan/net/ftp/bluetooth stays gray)

BACKGROUND: go in settings-->theme-->color: choose

default

for gray background. otherwise,black or white

grab the apk flavour you prefer down here and enjoy your awesome ES file explorer ;)

let me know if there's something missing,i'll try to keep the apk updated as much as possible.

NOTICE:

the icons work is under CreativeCommons License

all the icons are done by scratch,some are derivative of original google docs/android dev resources.

it took a good effort and quite bit of time since i am not a graphic designer and i am glad to share it with the community,

if you want to use the icons or need bigger res.files just drop me a PM.

..and of course credit my work on your thread/website/blog/whatever,thanks :highfive:

[Android Apps and Games] Magnumutz:
Thanks mate, i too wondered why they dropped the bluetooth share...

Now i have it back and themed, that's AWESOME!

THANKS!
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
edit:

oi,i if you want a light background just go in settings-->theme-->color: choose white.

the only elements i could change and make in blue are the selection highlights,but the app does not provide a switch so it should be another apk just with blue selection. about the folders,i think that gray looks better,but if you want it blue then let me know,i'll do it when i got a bit of time :)
[Android Apps and Games] Mesograt:
Gray/dark background def looks better when the folders are gray. If you can make the folders/other images blue that'd be great :D

Either way you rock thanks C:
[Android Apps and Games] meethere:
Awesome, wanted the same change

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
ok today the devs wrote that bluetooth sharing is going to be fixed soon,when it will come out i'll update the whole thing here :)
[Android Apps and Games] polobunny:
Very dark and more grey than Holo, but muuuuuuch better than the default look which also made me cringe. Even with the dark background and everything modified to my taste it wasn't so good.

Do you plan on keeping this up to date though? There's not many updates to ES file explorer, but asking nonetheless. :)
[Android Apps and Games] toxicpaulution:
Could you incorporate custom colored folders. Instead of the yellow(which are not coming up) and the blue? Like put the whole rainbow of colors like red green and purple :)
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
yes i will keep this updated. i am changing the colors in the next release,in the end there are 3 folder color options,so i think i'll make it gray,blue holo and dark yellow or green pea. suggestions or color examples are welcome :)

btw in the meanwhile you can put a white background if like this it's too dark.
[Android Apps and Games] toxicpaulution:
Please :) we don't see enough purple around these parts :/
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
this is also quite dark,no? what about picking from here?

[Android Apps and Games] toxicpaulution:
They look good too :) I wouldn't mind the darkest of the swatches.
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
that doesn't sound bad. let's see,i'll do some tries :)
[Android Apps and Games] toxicpaulution:
Ill test whatever you'd like :)
[Android Apps and Games] polobunny:
Just tried it and just as I thought I like it much more. Can't wait for a unified Holo look if possible. :)

Virus TROJAN ANDROID BASEBRIDGE

Installed this modified es explorer and sophos security said it contained a Trojan called android base bridge
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
Hi,just scanned it now with Avast and i got nothing. Can you may provide a screenshot?

I did a bit of research and i read that other apps (eg. Badoo) were also flagged with this type of trojan,which in the end turned out to be a false positive. I change only the icons in this app,so if you have any kind of issue contact directly the developers. Again,next time before making any kind of statement,do a bit of research and use also other scanners to see if there is effectively any kind of problem ;)

In general,i want to apologize for the delay of the last update,these days i don't have that much of time,there were no relevant changes in the stock app anyway. I'll put it up as soon as i can.
[Android Apps and Games] kieranc88:
I shouldn't have to do any research I simply stated that sophos security said it had a Trojan screenshot attached
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
Yes,and making such statement here it's kinda wrong,because the modifications i do have nothing to do with the core app itself,i just change the graphics. If you have any complaint,just head on ES forums. To my scans the app is absolutely clean,this was the 4th release of the mod,it was downloaded around 2k times in total,no one ever had any problem with it. So i think that in your case it's just a false positive.
[Android Apps and Games] kieranc88:
I'm not saying your modded app contains viruses or Trojans I'm only telling people that the security app sophos States that it does, I'm not doubting your integrity in anyway. It's all cool
[Android Apps and Games] hsn97:
Come on people these all antivirus and security softwares are just stupid , there is no viruses or trojans that can harm androids, using my phone without any stupid antivirus or security apps from an year without any problems!

PS: @OP you have simply given a new life to es! It is so much perfectly themed! And only a holo fan can understand how much i liked it :D

Hey , thanks for the awesome mod , can you post a full change log ? or new features added other than theme ? or is it just a theme mod ?

[Android Apps and Games] twerg:
Bugger, should have read the thread more closely.

Uninstalled my ES File Browser to instal this mod, I then found that it is of an OLD version.

Looked fine, would look forward to a mod of the new latest version but that has themes anyway, might find a Holo one aleardy though..
[Android Apps and Games] brmbjn:
Dark theme ?
[Android Apps and Games] skeletonboy:
The default theme of every apk has dark gray folders and you can use a black background, but keep in mind this is the old ES File explorer ver 1.6.2.4. You can try it out if you want, but I don't know how it may work on the latest Androids.

Hi

i have MEDIAS N-04C and wanted to reset to factory settings, but it is asking for password. anyone know what it is?

or any way to re-flash stock rom?

SOLVED :)

What you have to do is remove the battery, copy the IMEI somewhere...

Then If your IMEI is：0123456789abcde

Then your Password is：1bcd

Take the second digit, then the last 4 and last 3 and last 2 in the IMEI, then it is the password for recovery.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyanKFCM10:
I am not sure if this can be done, from what i have read a few topics on this in numerous places and nobody has had success with an actual external hard drive. Of course for it to even be possible you would need an adapter and there is still no way that i have found to make the Kindle to be able to read the content on the external drive to make it usable on the kindle. If it is i would also like to know how because the 6ish GB that are made available besides the cloud drive are quite small and can run low real fast.

the problem is the rootkit. dont use it. do it the right way, use fastboot or adb. its quicker/easier and youll learn how its done. or eventually youll be starting a thread titles "i bricked my gnex, help?". the basic steps via fastboot.. fastboot oem unlock, fastboot a custom recovery of choice, flash a custom rom or the su binaries in your new recovery, then reboot and profit. easy.
