FAQs

While rooting or unrooting my kindle tried to reboot and appears to be stuck in a bootloop and just says 'kindle fire', what do I do?
Pull the plug on your kindle. Hold the power button until it shuts off. Turn it back on. Reboot your computer and try rooting or unrooting again (this happened to me acouple times, no big deal).

My superoneclick freezes when I click root, what can I do?
First try rebooting your computer, if that doesn't help its probably some software on your computer the superoneclick doesnt like. syncing software is usually the culprit like itunes, htc sync, etc. You can try to remove some of those or try on another computer if available.

Where can I get the root check app?

  • @ybkyla oh, well then this should still unroot u, or just use ota root keeper app to unroot

  • @ybkyla I already have an updated version, check out my channel
