  • This too damn much to be doing .

  • Jeff u just made me wanna go get me a kindle fire. Great video!!

  • i need help what plug do u use

  • is this even legal?

  • short fuse when i come to click the download now it says connection lost. what can i do so that it won't do that any more so i can download it.

  • For the GO launcher just go to their website via your Kindle and download the apk files. OR google search the apk files and you will find them and they should auto update as well. Hope I helped.

  • Go launcher, Clayston and any other mentioned do not show up in amazon's app store, I need a launcher or the rooting was worthless, HELP

  • I'm not seeing GO launcher in the store.

  • Thank you! This is awesome!!

  • amazing!!! you have made the easiest to follow instalation video for the fire i have seen

  • I did reroot but it still gives me that error

  • THANK,you.

  • @gpraiser Fellas means everyone y'know...

  • Are you seriously calling Windows "Clunky"?

  • God Bless you Jeff!!! That is very helpful!

  • thank you so much Jeff!!! I love your voice!!

  • I've installed the Kindle Market several times and keep getting the below message:

    The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. The it provides a 'Force Close' button. Doesn't matter if I try again or not, will not work. Also, following the instructions will place two (2) icons and apps on my kindle. What am I doing wrong?

  • im stuck  everytime i press the market or the opener it stops and says i need to set up a google account when i press yes it goes back to home sreen what am i doing wrong?

  • hi, i have ver. 6.2.2, i tried the superone click but hangs/ freezes up at step #7..

    appreciate your help. thanks!

    

  • will this work for 6.2.2?

  • but will it blend?

  • Very nice.. one question. can i still use my amazon premium membership and download/view contents (books and movies) from Amazon after installing Android Market ?

  • I have a question. How can you set a permanent live wallpaper with the go launcher? the wallpaper keep reverting back to the default everytime I hit the power button.

  • Hey, there are women watching these videos too! I used your tutorial to root my Fire and now was looking forward to adding Android Market to my tablet. You started off your video by saying "fellas..." and I was slightly offended. Girls can be geeky too!

  • so glad i found. There is an Android app that I really want and couldn't associate the Kindle with the Market. Your video tutorial is a lifesaver.

  • When are you going to stop saying "Alright Fellows" and get with the program? There are females using this too... :)

  • if i already have iteams in my kindel and after i root it will it affect my past apps,pics and such iteams??

  • "Wasnt' that hard" Yah right wow that was way too hard for this dude big time lol! That said I'd sure like to learn that just the same so I could indeed put that app on my brand-new KF! You lost me when you started all the cut/pastiing things back & fourth! Oh well good job anyway, I think/gusee lol!!

  • what kihd of keyboard is that? please and thanks

  • do u have to have it rooted or just using go launcher ex

  • can u do this by using go launcher ex no root plz answer

  • Will this kill the warranty?

  • @megusta535 no it will not, as long as you unroot your kindle before sending it back. it's very hard to check if the kindle has been rooted once you've done a factory restore

  • @megusta535 yes

  • @megusta535 who gives a fuck?

  • do u hav to install the android market to change the wallpaper? i didnt install it and i dont really want to.

  • now...how about showing how to do this on a mac?

    -_-

  • is there any wat to do hard reboot or power on the kinfle fire with safe mode?

  • hi, this video is great, however I'm in Mexico and I can't download the launcher from the app store (actually can't download anything at all). Is there a way to also push the launcher into the kindle???

  • It is not in the app store how do i get it??

  • to get go launcher if ur not in the USA,just go to settings>device...then allow installation of applications ....press OK on the warning,then go to the web browser...google go launcher apk....d/l it ,then in the top left corner,press ur name and click the d/l apk file and it will install

  • go launcher ex is not there

  • can you give the same directions using a Mac?

  • For those who are outside the US and can't get Go Launcher EX because you can't access Amazon AppStore, the solution I used is called Market Opener. I can't post url on comment but you will be able to google that with keywords market opener apk.

    Just browse to it on your KF and hit "Get The Kindle Fire Market Opener". You can then access the Market and replace this with Go Launcher Ex if you want :)

  • Thanks Jeff. Managed to get it working but not through adb push. Somehow adb remount was not permitted. So just in case others face the same problem I did, I used a hybrid approach of copying the files Jeff provided to the internal SDCard. Then I used RootExplorer to transfer them to /system/app folder, reset permission to 644 and installed them in the order of adb push from your instructions. Restarted and I'm greeted with tons of wonderful apps on Android Market :)

  • Thanks man!

  • Can you root a kindle fire without a usb, please respond

  • @flamingbunny23 yes, if you are already rooted then type into the youtube search bar: How to Install Android Market - Rooted Kindle Fire (No ADB, V2) . Then the video that is by nat3mil with 15,000 views is the one you should follow

  • @NabhanKhan100 Aight thanks bro:)

  • At 9:05 when I press "Yes" to adding an account, the market place closes its self, therefore not allowing me to use the market. How do I fix this issue? Please help!

  • @chowt3809 I have the same issue. My kindle fire was rooted successfully and the market worked fine untill a kindle fire update happened. Now I am having the same problem as you

  • Hey jeff...what root alows you to do in your KindleFire? pls answere

  • kindle fire too?? your the beeest jeff xD

  • jeff your awsomee

  • i rooted my kindle and did everything ok . but i cant find the go luncher..

  • remount failed: Operation not permitted! HELP!

  • ya step seven = rooted?

  • When I rooted, mine stopped at step 7. A comment on the tutorial video said that if it does that' it's rooted, will this affect my ability to do this with the Android market?

  • thumbs up if your watching this video on your kindle fire

  • ssssssssssssssssllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lllllllllllllllllllooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­r !  please!

  • Jeff?

  • Easiest one to do and explained very clearly and stop by step by Jeff. Thanks Jeff!

  • Update: Was able to install Go Launcher from the Android Market using the Claystone launcher, just an FYI to anyone that prefers it.

  • Used Claystone because i couldn't find Go Launcher, worked like a charm. great video!

  • @Lenilya Thank You!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Is it worth rooting? because i find that i can do pretty much everything without rooting, besides the google stuff.

  • hey...can i use this android market even if i am outside the U.S??

  • on the copy homescreen message they misspelled copy (coyp)

  • i used claymores not claystone now i have a kindle paper weight ;)

  • one problem, the appstore doesnt appear. i performed all these steps to the letter.

  • Thank you works great!

  • most prorams will run inside the stock amazon skin after they've been downloaded btw.

  • you can use the ics launcher as well

  • go launcher is gone!

  • If you set the default launcher to Go Launcher, how do you get back to the Kindle? And is it worth it to root it?

  • Just wanted to say thanks so much the the awesome videos and instructions on doing all this for everyone. I followed your instructions on your videos and everything went smooth as glass. Thanks again!

  • I tried another how-to video and the market did NOT work! this one worked like a charm! Million thanks!

  • if you dowload this, do you have to dowload the facebook app that whole separte way? And if you download an app in that launcher, will it apperar in the other one?

  • You Sir, are a godsend!! I followed your root tutorial and this one and everything seems to be working fine! Thank you so much for helping us out. Much appreciated. I'm sure you have seen the comments about go launcher no longer being in the amazon app store. I am using claystone, like someone suggested. It does have ads but it also does work.

    Good luck everyone and tip your hats off to this kind gentleman! ^_*

  • but cant you just go to market.android.com and download apps from there???

  • @kindlefirewire Can I install the android market on UNROOTED kindle fire?

  • Wait, is the GO Launcher available in Android App store or not? I am confused. Is there an alternative launcher to GO? I do not want to go through this to have the LAST most important step be an epic fail.

    So, if GO is not available which it sounds like its not what do we use instead?

  • I have been debating about getting the Fire because it did not have the Android market now I will problly get it after seeing how quick & easy it is to root & install. What apps are not able to be used on the fire? Can we add live wallpapers?

  • You just need to download any launcher, you dont specificly need Go Launcher EX, just search Laucher in the Kindle market.

  • it asks me if i want to add an account when i click yes or no it does nothing.

  • On behalf of all kindle fire owners outside of America...we can not use the amazon app store...is there another way to see android market without using a launcher?

  • can't find the Go Launcher EX app in the amazon store...any solution?

  • i tried to download the go launcher but my kindle fire says that the app is not compatible with my device what do i need to do?

  • So will the new apps downloaded from the market show up in the fire launcher?

  • about my below question. Can I use the icescream laucher instead to show the Android appstore by following your instruction to get an IC laucher? Because all I have to do is using the web brower of Kindle fire and go to the website and install the laucher instead of going to the Amazon Appstore (which is not available for Vietnamese users). I have already root my kindle fire

  • For some reason, we Vietnamese can't access to Amazon appstore. we can use stuffs like books, etc. but we can't download app from amazon store. That's why i'm stuck at download the app GO laucher EX to display Android app store. can you show us how to do it.

    Many people from Vietnam are looking for a solution =.=. Help us please

  • @cyberman1503 Hello Did you find a solution, I am outside USA too

  • it sounds like you need to sideload the market and launcher apps after doing the root stuff

  • I can't find GO Launcher in the store.

  • Thank you soooo much!! This was mu only concern with the Fire!!! U make it super simple n I run go launcher ex on my Infuse already!!! Fantastic!

  • @kindlefirewire can you still use the amazon cloud and borrow books once the kindle fire is rooted

  • awesome man!

  • So will the apps I download from the Android market show up in the Go Launcher only or the stock launcher too?

  • @b2a1c3d4e5 Stock too

  • ketapsco, download and install getjar and then go launcher. no need to root.

  • Go Launcher EX is not in the amazon app store.... rooting worthless?

  • @ketapsco Sideload?

  • Claystone does not give you access to the android market

  • Used Claystone Launcher and works as good as Go launcher EX

  • Comment removed

  • so let me get this straight i can get the andriod browser with the andriod appstore while keeping the amazon android browser that comes with it and still watch prime videos and everything else if i unroot it after? please respond

  • hey, i cant find go launcher ex on the amazon app store. i tried buying it via amazon.com app store so it would send to the fire but it still wouldnt show up. any ideas? thanks

  • can I still watch prime instant videos

  • Thanks a lot for this video.

    I have a question: is there any way to install the launcher pro without using the Amazon Appstore? i live in Brazil and I have no way to access it.

    thanks a lot!

  • @nelsonarashiro yes you can

  • You sir are awesome!

  • Kindle fire is useless out of the USA because you won't be able to buy anything from your browser UNLESS you got an ip address changer. I wouldn't recommend buying it. Amazon prime won't work for you

  • Im thinking of buying this, but is it worth the shipping? I live in Sweden? And can it handle most of the apps/games?

  • @granath55 Same problem here, from Netherlands...

    but it ships to our countries so i think its possible, maybe not the movie app..

  • @wolt96 I'm gonna get it for movies and games. Just say I will find movies on another place.. :P

  • @granath55 well it has flash support so maybe you can watch movies via mega video?

    don't know i am a apple user but i want something news

    But going to use it for web movies and a some gaming and Facebook because thats very smooth on a 7" tablet

  • @granath55 i got one,watched something on megavideo the other day...and even since amazon stopped ppl outside USA from using app store...i still got my apps without rooting

  • @jammarocka15 Ok. Now I just need to figure out how to ship the tablet to sweden, because Amazon.com has done so only people from the US can order.. do you have any idea?

  • @granath55 ebay.com :)

  • this makes me want to get a kindle fire
