How to root Kindle Fire with SuperOneClick?

Titanium Backup is the primary reason that I want to root Amazon Kindle Fire. Titanium Backup needs root access to backup / restore apps. So how to root Kindle Fire? Very simple, just use SuperOneClick to root Kindle Fire. Really, just one single click.

Root Amazon Kindle Fire with SuperOneClick

Prerequisites

  • Android SDK Development Environment
  • Kindle Fire adb USB driver
  • SuperOneClick

Okay, here is the catch. You need to have Kindle Fire adb USB driver installed first. SuperOneClick v2.3.2 has auto USB driver installation function but I did not try it since I already setup Android SDK Development Environment and Kindle Fire adb USB driver myself. And I prefer this way because they are needed to install CM7 ROM too. How to setup? Follow this guide ~ How to install & setup Android SDK Development Environment? And How to install Kindle Fire adb USB driver?

  1. Hi Jayce

    Does superoneclick v2.3.3 work on Kindle Fire 6.3?
    I cannot go through rooting by using superoneclick v2.3.3. Is that because I have rooted my kindle fire by using Kindle Fire Utility 0.9.5?

    many thanks,
