USE MY NEW VIDEO FOR 6.2.2 USING BURRITOROOT3!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ88CYWv0FU

NOTICE: Anyone on 6.2.2 trying to root, you must use BurritoRoot2 instead of the original, amazon patched it. Use the instructions below:
1. Follow the video setting up the driver, extracting the kindleADB folder to the c drive, and placing the su files into the kindleADB.
2. Download the below BurritoRoot2.bin file and place it in the kindleADB folder (just like the su files).
3. Open command prompt and navigate to the kindleADB folder as I show in the video (cd c:\kindleADB). Then copy and paste each command one at a time from the guide linked below.

If you are on Windows XP you extract the .android folder to....
C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\.android

I need help installing the drivers or nothing shows up when I type adb devices, how do I fix?
Go to the link below and download and extract the kindle fire utility, then run the install_driver.bat. It will install the drivers for you.

Cant find my kindle or adb steps not working.
update to the newest firmware v6.2.1 and try again.

Where do I download the burritoroot apk? The link doesnt look the same as in the video?
jcase has changed the name and location of this file. Just click the github link in the guide. Then click the "kindleroot.apk" link under download packages header. DO NOT CLICK DOWNLOAD AS ZIP or DOWNLOAD AS TAR.GZ

I'm outside the us and ant get a file explorer.
Go to your Quickoffice app ehich is pre-installed on your kindle, (just press "register later") choose the "browse" icon and then choose "Internal Storage". There is your file at the bottom (thanks klinck2)

How do i unroot?
(Thanks Knopv01!) Now it works. Unrooting does not work with the BurritoRoot for me, but I intalled Voodoo OTA from the Android Market and after rebooting, it works like a charm. Can unroot and stream Amazon movies.

    Hey everyone. If you have a Kindle, Windows Phone, Android phone, tablet, etc, or Iphone, Ipod Touch and Ipad, go on your app store, search and download ( Bamboo Wallet or Junowallet ). You will get money for every task you do. At the end you can redeem it for a gift card. Like the Xbox, Playstation, Itunes gift and even more. When you are downloading it add my invite code (DG845812) and you will also get money in return.

    Hey Nate, if you dont know about Kindle root process, shut up! For dayd and days, I have tried to root my Kindle through your videos, but I could not, because of error on update of Android Composite ADB Interface. Although I did all that you said, my pc could not update this fucked Android Composite bla bla. Only thing what you do, is to say "watch my x video".
