Thanks, Dumbsum, for this terrific step-by-step illustrated guide and the associated files! I picked up a used Fire HD 8.9 LTE earlier this year and was unimpressed by the stock operating system but too inexperienced (and chicken) to try rooting it and flashing a different ROM. The discussion threads I found at https://forum.xda-developers.com/kindle-fire-hd weren’t streamlined (dumbed-down) enough for me to take the plunge, but now, with your generous help, I’ve been able to gain root access and test drive a couple of different ROMs. I’m currently using LineageOS (lineage-14.1-20170718-UNOFFICIAL-jem.zip) with Open GApps 7.1 ARM nano; the things that work seem to be working well (but there’s no Bluetooth, GPS, or native camera support). Since discovering your guide and successfully installing replacement ROMs, I’ve been searching for the elusive LiquidSmooth ROMs for the Amazon jem but sadly I’ve com up empty. I’ll keep searching and checking back here — maybe someone will make some archived LiquidSmooth ROMs available soon. Thanks again for your very helpful guide!
Thanks Bill! Hope you will share with others when needed. If you come up with anything new please let me know. I’ll update the site accordingly 🙂
