An OTA update for the Kindle Fire was pushed out today bringing the firmware up to 6.2.2. My household Fire got the update this evening and while the update brings the usual handful of performance tweaks and bugs fixes, 6.2.2 also incorporates full screen browsing capability; a feature many Kindle owners have had on their Amazon Wish List for a while now. The update will of course break root, but if you’re of that crowd, no worries, Justin Case’s Burrito Root has been updated as well. BurritoRoot 2 requires ADB, so as long as you have that all set this should only take a minute of your time.
adb push BurritoRoot2.bin /data/local/
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/BurritoRoot2.bin
adb shell /data/local/BurritoRoot2.bin
adb root
adb shell id
if uid = 0 continue, if not start over
adb remount
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb shell chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
adb remount
adb install Superuser.apk (skip this step if its already installed)
You can force update your Kindle Fire by downloading the update here, and storing it in the kindleupdates folder on your device. Then go to device in the settings menu, and your update button should be activated.
Download BurritoRoot2 from here or here.
