I'm confused. If memory serves, you download both the framework and the app. You work with the framework. Open it, touch framework, select install. Go back to modules and select that, tic the box to activate the module. Done.

Does that help?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] mumraa76:
Hey! They are separate files. Framework installed no problem. However when I go to "modules" it says "No Xposed modules were found!" I've seen videos online where the HDXposed is actually installed before it shows up under modules. Or is there a modules folder I can put it in? Thanks for your patience!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Angel0fDeath:
Your supposed to download and install the module.

Did you do every step in the instructions? Are you sure?

After downloading AND installing both files, did you go to the installer and select install? {That's a separate step from the first install. } Then look to see if the module is there.

Also, if somebody helps you, you are supposed to press the thanks button. If you do not, agents of the international XDA network will sneak up to your house at night, soap your windows, and put toilet paper all over your plants. You have been warned. :=}

HDXposed may download with a "zip" extension, which needs to be changed to "apk"

When I downloaded the HDXposed module (on my PC), it was detected/stored as a "ZIP" file . . . simply renaming it to an "apk" file on my HDX (after transfer) allowed it to be installed successfully.

AOD,

Everything was hunky dory...then a day or two after I installed the Google apps an OAU installed itself to my dismay! I checked out my Google Apps and everything seemed to be OK. But a couple of days later I started getting "Google Play Store has stopped" right when I powered up my KFHDX and whenever I tried to access the Play Store. Actually, just now when I tried to go there to get the exact error message, it actually worked and I was able to search for and find an app...but then it crashed when I pressed the 'Approve' button.

Anyway, even though during the initial rooting/app installation process I chose to run the routine to disable over the air updates, it doesn't seem to have remained configured. So, since I'm 61yo and have occasional bouts of CRS, I don't really remember the process I went through to get everything set up. I think that I need to run the Framework again and select #4 to disable over the air updates. But do I need to do anything else with the Framework before I reinstall the Google services and all that? I just need a little guidance before I give it a go so I don't brick my device.

Also, maybe someone could explain to me why the OAU fix didn't stick - that's what got me into this predicament in the first place.

Thanks!

If Ota updates are blocked using the toolkit, do I need to update to the latest version of hdxposed? I'm on 1.0. Is there any other reason to update to 1.3?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] earlgrey_44:
Please be explicit about what happened so we don't have to play "20 questions". Did the thing update to 13.3.2.4 from the earlier firmware even though you blocked updates? Something else?

If GP is complaining, try the easy stuff first before you catastrophize. Delete the 4 google service and account apps from the device, reboot, then reinstall them again one by one, rebooting each time, doing the play store last.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Angel0fDeath:
I don't think so. I think the only changes he made was to block ota updates in 1.2 and 1.3.

I'm not 100% sure though.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Wayniack:
Thanks for the response. Sorry for the lack of information.

Yes...I'm on 14.3.2.4 now. I was on 14.3.2.3.2 when I rooted and installed the Google Apps. I definitely blocked updates during the process of setting everything up, but it appears to have not taken...or I just thought I did it but didn't do it correctly.

I've uninstalled Google Play & Play Services, but I'm not sure how to uninstall the Google Account Manager or the Services Framework since they don't appear under 'Apps'. Can I just install over them or what?

Regards,

Wayne

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 AM ----------

OK...I uninstalled the two apps that appeared in Apps, rebooted, and then reinstalled the 4 apps (installing the 2 that didn't appear in Apps over the original since I didn't know how to uninstall them). I'm still getting the error 'Google Play Store has stopped'.

Thanks
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] earlgrey_44:
Bummer. Good try though.

Incidentally, on the Kindle, you can go to Settings/applications/manage all applications/ and you will see all your installed stuff - not just what is on the apps menu. Things can be uninstalled from there too.

The first thing to try when the google PS acts up is to delete the device from your Google account and then log it in again. That's why I suggested deleting all the account stuff and starting over. So, you might try that since you now know how to get rid of your Kindle google account entirely.

I'm not sure why Amazon account blocking is not working. The only guess I can make is that sequence of steps in the procedure might have been off. Did you root before you blocked updates? You should have. Some folks don't because towelroot is choice 8 on the menu while "block" is choice 1 or 2 I think so people have assumed they follow the numbers.

I'd wipe my google account entirely, reboot using the 20 second hold of the power button, reinstall all my google stuff, and rerun the block feature on the rootkit.

Unless anybody else has a better idea, Re-running the whole procedure from the beginning would be the only other thing I would try.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Wayniack:
Hey...thanks, Man! I've uninstalled the apps did the 20sec power button shutdown, reinstalled the apps following http://the-digital-reader.com/2013/10/27/install-google-apps-kindle-fire-hdx/#.U7rXkLHrwf8 and Gmail came up and worked great. I'm puzzled because even though I have it in airplane mode it was able to connect to my wireless network and update Gmail. That seems weird!

Now I need to ask: which app do I run to get to the option to block over the air updates? I have: Xposed Installer, towelroot; Safestrap, SuperSU. I think it's the first one. Or should I just re-run the whole thing from de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v32_de4f0d.apk? I just want to make sure I have OAUs disabled before I turn my wireless back on.

TIA

You can use the Toolkit to block OTA updates.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] earlgrey_44:
More than strange - more like miraculous. Methinks you're missing something. Glad the Google account is back up though.

Yeah, why the update blocker is problematic for folks is a mystery to me beyond what I said upthread. Assuming that you are indeed rooted and that the Xposed module is active, I'd start the toolkit like Angel of Death says, run the blocker option again and hope for the best. It worked for me.

Let me know if you can continue to send e-mails w/o an internet or cell connection. I will send you a case of Perrier and ask that you turn it into Chateauneuf-du-Pape for me. I'll pay the return postage. OK? :D :silly:
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] mjculross:

You make a good point, except that the "ATT nanny-manager" constantly gets in the way by limiting the allowed size of large downloads, so I completely avoid that by downloading/sideloading using PC !!

Just rooted and installed all Google apps!

Just a note of thanks to all who contribute to this forum ! I did a factory reset first, then used the toolkit to block OTA and install Towelroot. From there it was easy to just follow AngelofDeaths's directions, Within a few minutes I had installed all the google apps I wanted, plus a few root apps, and installed the Apex Launcher for customizations. My Kindle is now a rocking tablet again. All Amazon apps still work as well, except for Amazon Music (it crashes upon hitting play). No problems at all.

Hi! I had the Couldn't sign in issue too and finally resolved it by going to my Google account security settings, then to App passwords. Using the 'Select app' drop-down menu I selected 'Other' and typed in 'Google Play on KFHDX' and hit generate.

Well, all is not well in Wayne's World. Google PS stopped working and it would tell me so frequently. Then this morning my Kindle started a reboot loop. Every once in awhile it would get to the desktop and I was finally able to do a factory reset which got it stable again. After re-entering my Amazon account info I was able to function...for awhile. Now it's looping at the language selection page. It's already been configured with my Amazon account and preferences, so it shouldn't keep asking for my language pref, but it is. Not sure what to do at this point. It's on version 14.3.2.4 right now.

Anyone been here before?

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] earlgrey_44:
Sorry your install has gotten borked. No way to tell the "why" at this point.

If we had control of the device, you could wipe it, reinstall the ROM, and be back in business. Since Amazon holds tight to that capability, I suggest you put the problem in their lap. If the thing wont stabilize with just their stuff running, tell them about it, let them fix it or replace it for you.

So basically, there is no answer? No one apparently has 14.3.25 on the 8.9 yet and can't get the play store on it.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Angel0fDeath:
First connect to a WiFi network.

Then enable updates using the toolkit.

After you've enabled updates again choose your language pref. on the language screen.

After your done quickly disable updates again (using toolkit ).

This should stop the language pref. Loop. This happened to me once when I did a factory reset. When you disable updates using the toolkit it also prevents your tablet from registering your language pref. With amazon.

Also, what do you mean its a spyware link o.O? The toolkit link takes you here:

As I posted on another thread, I have the current 14.3.25 firmware on my 8.9 and I rooted it with the towelroot apk. Just make sure you follow the instructions exactly as they are written and also download a root checker to be sure towelroot worked properly. After rooting, I then followed the instructions on this thread and have been running Google apps including Play store, music, and so on for the last couple days. I didn't even need to downgrade and I have to say that the instructions still worked perfectly with the 14.3.25 firmware.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Wayniack:
It was already downloaded, but the instructions led me to believe that after installing the framework, it would automatically appear in the Modules. Not to trash anybody who is graciously donating their time and skills to benefit the community, but considering the potential for bricking an expensive device by 'hacking' it, a little more time spent on being precise and complete in providing steps would be a good thing. But I'll be the first to admit I don't always live up to that standard...but I try. ;)

Use Voodoo OTA RootKeeper to enable/disable root on-the-fly

I use the Voodoo OTA RootKeeper v2.0.3 (if you can't locate it on the Google PlayStore, then download it directly from their website & sideload it), which allows you to make a protected backup of your root & to selectively enable/disable it. If you do install/use Voodoo OTA RootKeeper, make sure to remove SuperSU since using both of them together can result in confusion/problems (one thinks that SU is installed, but the other one has removed/disabled it !!).
