  It worked! Thanks! I did run into a problem I did not get a bunch of letters in the last line of the command prompt. I did find out what was wrong though.

  Do NOT delete the text when editing the “adb_usb” file to put the code: 0×1949. It should say this:
  
  # ANDROID 3RD PARTY USB VENDOR ID LIST — DO NOT EDIT.
  # USE ‘android update adb’ TO GENERATE.
  # 1 USB VENDOR ID PER LINE.
  0×1949

  I found the answer to on click freezing up, DO NOT copy and paste the 0×1949 code into the file, manually type it in. I don’t know why this works but it does.

  @dosh118 Yes it does. That’s why rooting a Amazon Kindle fire is so important for non-Americans like me and u.

  i got up to the part where i put the following in the cmd:
  * daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
  * daemon started successfully *
  List of devices attached
  5246002600000001 device

  BUT under list of devices attached, shows nothing. And when i go to superoneclick it freezes up and shows “not responding”

  Im getting one for Christmas. Is it worth it to root it? Will I get locked out of it if Amazon finds out I did this?

  how come no one puts what would happen if it didnt work, like if you put the files in something different when you download it, it does not work at all. i had to unload and reload the whole first program, and then do it exactly the way you did it. so if you could please put how to’s if it does not work. thanks
