FAQs
============

There is no mount r/w button at the top, what do I do?
You dont have root. you must root first, watch my other video linked above.

There is no extracted folder, what do i do?
The location has just changed. it is now located at sdcard/SpeedSoftware/Extracted
Keep trying if it doesnt work the first time.

OR

"solution: in root explorer
go to preferences, archive extract folder
change to read: /sdcard/extracted
The directory has changed but you can change it back to the original. Then extract the zip again and you should be able to go to the directory directly."

  • @JessieDiaz25 multi upload is dead now because of the govt. so there are alternate links in the video description

  • @dgamer84 theres an alternate link in vid description

  • First of all, thanks so much for these videos. It all worked perfectly on my Kindle. I just got done installing Marketplace. The only thing is I can't download anything. After I select a program, it just hangs. The Kindle doesn't even add a notification at the top left to indicate that it's downloading. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  • @loafungusOM try a reboot

  • Has anyone had an issue with not being able to see all the Apps available in Android App Store when using a "rooted" KF compared to a regular device.

    When using Android Market through KF to download Angry Birds, I only have the choice of Angry Bird Seasons. I don't have the original nor Rio available. However, when I use a normal Android device, those choices show up. Various other apps like Twitter, etc, also don't show up. Any clue as to why that might be the case?

    Many thanks!

  • @robxfong00 yeah its because the kindle isnt even suppose to have android market, so it doesnt know all the compatible apps. if you need an app thats not on there, you can always side load it

see all
