Kindle Fire Root try

最近拿到一台KindleFire, 不可免俗的要學習刷機(flash ROM),
想要flash ROM 之前 必須先對Kindle Fire 的韌體做修改
讓KindleFire 不受Amazon限制,  能夠連上 Andoid Market/Google Play,
網搜後發現 首先要做的就是
Root - Rooting Kindle Fire, 拿回superUser/admin/root 的權力 ...
[" ... to attain privileged control (known as "root access") within Android's subsystem ..."]

0. 安裝 JDK 32bit 版本, Android SDK, Android NDK

1. 安裝 KFU(Kindle Fire Utility) 0.9.6 或更新的版本
   [可從 xda-developers.com 下載] (有KFU 就無須Android SDK?)

2. 手動安裝 google USB driver for adb [讓電腦的adb 程式能透過 USB 控制 Android device ]
或者直接用KFU的install_drivers.bat

3. 在command prompt 下 adb devices  命令
確認 adb 已經認得 KindleFire

4. KFU -> run.bat

[手動安裝 google adb usb driver]
a. 用KindleFire附的 micro-USB線 連接電腦
Device Manger -> 找到對應的device
right-click -> Properties -> Details -> Property ->  Hardware Ids

Kindle Fire USB hardware Id 應該長的類似
USB\VID_1949&PID_0006&REV_0216&MI_01
USB\VID_1949&PID_0006&MI_01

b. [android-sdk]\extras\google\usb_driver\
編輯 android_winusb.inf 檔案
在 [Google.NTx86] 與 [Google.NTamd64] 兩個區塊下
插入以下3 行
;Kindle Fire
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_1949&PID_0006
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_1949&PID_0006&MI_01


c. 到 C:\Users\UserName\.android\
或者 [androidSdk] 所在磁碟, 譬如說 D:\.android
編輯 adb_usb.ini  檔案
輸入 0x1949

D:\> mklink /D .android C:\Users\Username\.android

或者 

C:\Users\Username>  mklink /D .android D:\.android

d.  更新對應的device  driver (選擇目錄 [android-sdk]\extras\google\usb_driver\ ) ,
就會出現Android Phone -   Adb Composite Interface
