I can confirm that this script works on my 2013 Kindle Fire HD 7 (KFSOWI) running 11.3.1.0.

Thanks!

Now, if I could just set a lockscreen image...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Yea I miss the kf1 lockscreen, you could simply lock a file with read only access and the lock screen had live wallpaper, can't do that on any of the newer models.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlamborn3:
Thanks!

Stunts -- I really appreciate the hard work you put into this. Read through it several times before taking the plunge and was able, a few minutes later, to post a screenshot to Facebook showing off a Death Star live wallpaper that has my son and best friend green.

I don't do a lot of Android mods cuz I use Metro PCS and their phones can't really have much done with them, so I don't bother to root. Rooting my KFHD and playing with launchers has been a great way to spend my free time the past couple of days.

Happy New Year and thanks again!

Finally !

Finally Mr Stunz it works! I thought it was a no go for the 4th time trying but finally. I kept getting the error live wallpaper stopped. But when I needed to do was "install" live wallpaper picker!

Now it works!

Thanks for your intelligent hard work.

Thank you for your work stunts, but I have a real big problem. Everytime I try to use your script with my KFSOWI (New Kindle Fire HD without Frontcam), I get the "Too Low System Space" Error Message. I already tried:

- Removing all optional launchers

- Putting the device in factory reset mode

- Removing Swype and Silk Browser via TitamiumBackup while using your script. At that point somehow ADB couldn't work no more... So I put everything back

Stunts, can you please, please help me. I did not find any solution in any forum of my foreign language and there are many users experiencing the same issue. Please helps us :victory:

PS: In ADB shell "df /system" shows me:

OK I don't have my script in front of me right now but do you have busybox installed? I heard one the hdx's some people were having to install it, guess it's not included in the root process. Try running the command "busybox" from a terminal and see if it recognizes it. If it does it will list a lot of commands, otherwise it will say something like command not found.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoyalTenenbaum:
Thank you very much! I've just installed busybox from 1mobile market and after executing it, everything worked like a charm!

Does anyone have the background fix working on the kfsowi?? I'm on rooted 11.3.2.1
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I'm relunctant to say this will work on this device. It should work but think of it this way, right now we have no way of restoring that kindle from a brick. I'm trying to make a sparse image that can restore the kindle from a brick but my progress is a little slow going, partially because of my stupidty, but also because i don't have a bricked 2013 kindle(or a working one for that matter) to test my images on, so i'm having to try making a sparsed image, upload around 850mb to devhost(atleast an hour or 2), and then wait for someone to download it and test it on their bricked device, and repeat until it works. I would personally be more confident applying the fix manually to that device, but as long as it is rooted it should work. I have many safeties in my script, just check to see that you have busybox installed before running the fix, as i heard anythign after the 2012 models don't come with busybox in the rooting method.

Ah I know the problem, if your not running it as admin then do so, if that still doesn't do it then launch the bat file from within a command prompt. Something is just screwing up with the findstr command that is built into windows, probably just a weird path issue I've seen before.

What about this?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Exactly what it says, ignore the cannot remove time errors, at some point if I ever remember to I will update this utility, I've must had a lot going on between debugging Firefox OS, and trying g to unlock the god forsaken bootloader on my phone(curse lg for using a bootloader that's not under GPL and has measures in place that make it difficult near impossible to get to oem-unlock screen). Anyways you just need to make room on the system partition so it can do its thing.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
ok after taking a glance i'm seeing that it posted the too low on disk space error on your device. I don't recommend installing the live wallpaper picker and widget picker until after the fix is completed, otherwise it will abort because of that. Remove any extra launchers and widget pickers, etc from system folder and try it again, those errors about not finding files aren't a problem i think, least i know the initial ones aren't, I'd have to check my script to double check the last one but it was just a backup or something that didn't exist when it errored out at system space low so if i remember right its completely unimportant.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sugaree:
First, thanks so much for taking the time to respond to this. Especially when it sounds so repetitive to the rest of this thread ('it' meaning my problem). Second, thanks for all your work to help us all out!

Back to my issue... I did try that before looking for help, based on it saying low on disk space. It didn't change anything. :/ I was thinking I'm missing files for some reason on my kindle. But then again, I'm a noob and don't really know. I'll try it again and see for the heck of it and keep checking back here for further help if it don't work. Wish me luck!

It says "Could Not Find....\Stuns Wallpaper Fix\framework-res.apk.orig" Not sure if something was forgotten in the zip file.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I really need to hide that message... So many people complain and no one sees the explanation. That is just the initial cleanup of the script to make sure a few filled aren't still hanging around in the event that the process started and someone terminated the batch job. If the files are there then great, if not it doesn't matter. I might release a small update to disable some of the output and add a dalvik cache cleaner to help with disappearing status bars and such.

Interesting, i'm half asleep and i ahven't looked at my scripts code in a while but from that output i think it checked to se how much space you had left and it registered as 29 mb when it needed atleast 40 on the system partition. I really hope amazon isnt populating the system partition just to be a douchebag... I might take a look at my script and edit it wheni get time off, i don't even know what day i get off this weekend yet.

That's an unpleasant thought... I just used ES File Explorer to check and there's 126 items in system/app ... Granted, I don't know how many there used to be, but that seems like a ton. Most are things like Amazon things, but a few are things like Calendar and Email.

so i tried this out on my kinfle fire hd 7" running update 7.4.8 and removed all my launchers and livewallpapers and widget picker i even went as far as to factory reset an it still said i had low partition and to remove any alternate launchers etc.... cant seam to get it to work help is needed

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I heard the latest release of amazon os doesn't leave much room on the system partition. Idk if there's much I can do in this situation. I might look into it but I'm a lot more busy now that I have a full time job, I try to do some tinkering on the weekend when I have time.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cecr:
shame.

I moved to CM11 but contrary to what others have said, I don't find it as smooth as the Amazon PS, there's a noticable lag on most operations in seems. But I can't stand the black wallpaper in Amazon, and if its true that it can still update even with OTA disabled, then I don't want to be rooting it after every update just to get functionality back.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonicanomaly:
With Kindle Fire First Aid set to disable OTA and otacerts.zip renamed, I have never had issues with an OTA update sneaking past, even with wifi left on for days/weeks at a time.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cecr:
look on this site, you'll see several people report that OTA has occurred in recent times , even after being disabled. You'll also see others have reported that lock screen ads, aka 'special offers' have reappeared after being disabled (it happened to me). Amazon obviously want to claw back control bit by bit. Just because it hasn't happened to you yet, doesn't mean it will never happen.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonicanomaly:
I was on 8.4.3 for nearly a year, unupdated. And now I'm back on it, for a while (I forget how long; I recently reset everything) without a forced OTA. So if something was changed, it was recent. I was assuming the version in question was an earlier one such as 8.4.3 or 8.4.6 since this is in the wallpaper fix thread, and 8.4.8 and beyond are not currently workable with it.

For me, on the 8.9", I have successfully managed Kindle Fire OS without forced updates by sticking to 8.4.3 and manually updating the GameCircle app after downloading and extracting the newer version from 8.4.6. I also obtained an updated Appstore (necessary to utilize coins, unfortunately) by installing a backup I made from a tablet with 7.4.9 and thus the latest Appstore. So I was able to block OTA updates with KFFA and renaming otacerts.zip, regain wallpaper, and have working GameCircle and Appstore. Unless the OTA Updates are finding a way to sneak through with GameCircle or Appstore, since those are the only updated things I have on my system, I don't see how it could manage to be forced to update while using the same system version and OTA-blocking methods that worked for a year...

Granted, that seriously sucks if the newer versions have been made to force the OTA again, or if there's some way Amazon can break OTA-blocking that's worked for a year on the same setup, but yeah. I will say that the lock screen ads do come back with a vengeance for me, but I've been using KFHDxSettings which has a reported bug of exactly that. Haven't bothered killing the actual system app for it because I've found that doing so causes an annoying lag between trying to wake the tablet and the lock screen actually appearing.

If its the latest amazon os then it doesn't surprise me, I heard they shrank the system partition or something.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
They did,nothing except Amazon apps allowed. Maybe downgrade to an older version?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Technically I could probably make it delete the original framework-res.apk and then check for space and put the new one onto the device, though I will have to do some recoding for the case of if there still is not enough room. Maybe I'll look into it this weekend, I do most of my coding on the weekends now since I work full time.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
Dude,delete the framework-res.apk? You'll get a bootloop. You won't even get the chance to check for space. But the story would be different with a flashable zip. Learnt that the hard way?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
If I remember correctly adb commands still work when framework-res.apk is not present, otherwise this utility wouldn't work. If I didn't then replace the framework-res.apk and rebooted, then we would see a bootloop.

Kindle Bricked

I tried to run this script and now my kindle will not boot. When given the option to restore to factory defaults, this also does not work. Thank you for ruining my kindle.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Sorry to hear it bricked it, I have plenty of safeguards in place but sometimes they can't protect from every scenario, your kindle should be recoverable though. What you will need to do is get a fastboot adapter (preferably team blackhat) and it will throw the kindle into fastboot, from there you can reflash it and it should work again. If it's the 8.9 inch model you won't even need the adapter to fix it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
ok time for a update with a usual disclaimer:

I am not responsible if this kills yuour kitten or burns your house down or bricks your kindle

This update in itself is a bit dangerous the way i had to script it, so i don't advise testing this on x.4.9 unless you have a means to restore your kindle. If it does brick it we will know this was not a very bright idea, if it works great, also in this release i have it set to autoclear the dalvik cache to reduce the chance of status bar errors.

Anyways if you want to test it then here it is: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567722804

if this turns out to not work i will release my other release that was the old one but with the dalvik cache wipe, i've been meaning to for months but never gotten around to it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
Good job stunts. I opened it up and looks like it'll work (btw,will the low disk space still be an issue?)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I have no idea, that's the purpose of the test, it backs up the original to the data partition, removes the framework-res.apk, then it checks for low disk space, if it still fails it should restore the original file with its permissions, or if it passes it will continue and hopefully work. I'm going to bed now, have to get up early for work.

I'm willing to give this new fix a try in the next couple days on my KFHD 8.9 which I recently updated from 8.4.3 to 8.4.9. Of course, I lost my wallpaper fix and immediately noticed the lack of space in the /system partition while trying to reinstall all the google apps stuff. I freed up some of the space by converting a couple apps to user apps, but that barely net me enough to finish getting the Google Login Service and Framework apk's in place.

Anyhoo, I need to get a couple more things taken care of, and my partitions backed up before I give it a whirl. I've never bricked this thing yet, and I'm not running twrp. Just using Nova Prime as my primary launcher, and the Kindle launcher when I'm reading or watching Prime movies.

Oh and if I'm to understand correctly, since I have the KFHD8.9 (first gen) I'm able to get to fastboot to recover it without having the fastboot cable, right? I hear this is the case but never having had to do it, I'm not sure if I have all the prerequisites in place. So I definitely want to verify that as well, that I can easily recover if necessary once I make those partition backups.

Thanks for all the work you've done on this script, stunts!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Yes you can get into fastboot without a cable, though it may give you some trouble doing so in windows. Might be a good idea to do a "adb reboot bootloader" just so it will kick it into fastboot so the drivers can install before hand to make it a bit easier on you if need fastboot access later on.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dakois:
so now my kindle is bricked. what can i do without a factory cable to unbrick it?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
If it's an 8,9" you have to install the fastboot drivers when the kindle is plugged in while off, if fastboot drivers are installed the you shut the kindle off, run" fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" then plug kindle in and run kffa. If it's not the 8.9 you need a fastboot cable/adaptor unless you happen to have twrp + 2nd bootloader installed.

Interesting, well if you wanna disable the safety that's preventing it from working then edit the batch file so that line 184 has the word "REM" and a space after it right before the word "if". If you feel like helping me diagnose this further, also add a line before that that says "echo %sys%" and a line after that says pause, that way it will output a value to me that makes more sense as to why it's not working, might just be something is offsett slightly I need to fix for other people on newer kindle os versions. It should output the value and pause for you to write it down.
