Software update 1314.3.2.1_user_321093620 - Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General

No additional info yet
Exisiting method of root doesn't work.
No visible changes.

https://s3.amazonaws.com/kindle-fire-updates/update-kindle-14.3.2.1_user_321093620.bin hdx 8.9

Still 4.2.2 according to build.prop, in spite of (unreliable) reports of a bump to 4.3 base

HDXPosed did NOT protect against the update on my device.
I am unrooted.

Root Broken
Same here, rooting process does not work as laid out on this update. Hopefully things will come together soon.

Oh no... I haven't even checked mine...

I'm currently using Cpasjuste's Xposed stuff in Rom-slot #1 and when I've checked the Settings -> Device -> System Updates, I've still got "Your software is up-to-date" and my version is still in 14.3.1.0_user_310079820
So for me Xposed app still do a good job from the automatic update!
And I did do this too according to Faznx92 "Renaming otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old in /etc/security/ might do it but was never tested."

I'll try to update hdxposed as soon as possible I must have missed something.

I guess I broke updates. I'm not running your program but this is my current HDX Thor setup.
I'm running from a safestrap rom slot
My stock rom has wifi disabled and android firewall blocking everything
From stock I renamed otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old in /etc/security/
From stock I also renamed com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apk.old in /system/app/
My rom slot has thor-gapps-rom-2.zip installed on it and android firewall is not running on it
Cpasjuste how does your app block updates? Does it change filenames or what?

Does the update remove Safestrap as well. Mine is off and I will keep it off till we have more info.

It screws everything. Yes safestrap breaks. The HDXPosed app Cpasjuste made doesn't block it. I think I blocked it from updates (read my above post). I think if it updates in a rom slot it updates the stock rom also but I'm not sure. Time for damage control.

As far as I can tell the rename of com.amazon.dcp.apk works. I did that along with Android firewall white list and the otacerts remove . Prior to the dcp apk rename I could go to device settings and do an update check. Renaming the apk stopped that immediately(it will report "Last Update Failed" if you check for an update) so I imagine that app is at least partly responsible for the update.

If this update changes the kindle to android 4.3 safe root should work theoretically.

It may still download the update, but the update will not install, instead it shows that the update is older than the installed version.
Just FYI, from what I can tell so far, if you rooted & installed the HDXposed framework on BOTH the stock & working rom slots, the update will not work. I have tested this on at least half a dozen devices.
If you decide to mess with the build.prop, make sure your changes are consistent like they are for the instructions to reflash the current version, i.e. if you were staring anew with the existing firmware version. There are instructions on this in at least three places.

AT&T SGH-I467 OTA Update I467UCAMF2

Hey everyone. I just got an OTA update for my Note 8.0 LTE (AT&T). It's a small update (16.3MB). The new firmware build is I467UCAMF2. This is probably just a bugfix update but OTAs are almost always a good thing.

OK so allow me to translate that into English:
"Because we're A, T and f***ing T, we decided to make Samsung replace Google's normal Android setup app with our own called AT&T Ready2Go. The problem is, again because we're A, T and f***ing T, our app sucks. If you have two-step verification enabled on your Google account, you won't be able to sign into your Google account during setup with AT&T Ready2Go. I guess we underestimated how many people actually have it turned on, so oops! Our bad. Here, it's enabled. Happy now?"
I manually updated a couple of hours ago. After playing around with the Note 8 with the update for about an hour I no longer experience the screen stutter/freeze/pause/etc. issue. I hope this in fact is fixed, but so far so good.

I'm still getting the unresponsive screen issue post-update. I've thought about doing a reset, but haven't actually done it yet.
Would be nice if someone had the OTA zip, as it is possible a root could be made from it if the right images are included.

A little of both. The bootloader is encrypted and locked on the AT&T model, but also, very few of us on XDA actually have one. Let's be real. People around here thumb their noses at tablets with an LTE connection a lot of times. They just have no hipster cred in the Android geek community. The in crowd just buys a WiFi-only tablet and tethers it to their phone. It's the geekier thing to do, even if it's a pain in the @$$. You can talk about why LTE tablets are useful until you're blue in the face but it falls on deaf ears more often than not.
Unfortunately, I'm not very optimistic that we'll ever see root unless there comes a time where the WiFi-only root method works on the AT&T model.

Is it encrypted? I got this tablet 2nd hand and I may never even put service on it. If I can't root it, I'll probably trade it for a wifi version. I know AT&T and Verizon pushed an OTA to the S4's that prevented root. Luckily I was rooted/rom'ed prior to that. My GN8 doesn't have the latest OTA. I'm still hopeful for root and unlock/simunlock so I can grab a pre-paid card for this tab.

[WARNING] HDX Update Released + Amazon open source

This is a notice for 2 things the impending update and the emulator.
I'm unsure if anybody has taken notice but Amazon's Source Code Notice page has an emulator (1314_3.0.1_Emulator_1_32_src.tar.gz) for the Hdx along with each version revision. Hope this is of some use to someone. This takes me to my main point.
The kindle update page does not have the 13/14.3.2.0 update listed yet (for Thor and Apollo). But on their Open Source Notice page it has kindle_src_1314.3.2.0_user_320091620.tar.bz2 listed. It's seems Amazon lets dev's on the update before it is released.
Amazon may have patched the root in the update (just a guess don't quote me). We need to look into this.
Hope this notice thread was useful. Please leave a response.
-UPDATE-
Kindle Fire HDX version 1314.3.2.1 update was just released (13=Thor, 14=Apollo). It now appears this update breaks root permissions.
Here is my current config but please be careful. It seemed to block the update.
I'm running from a safestrap rom slot
My stock rom has wifi disabled and android firewall blocking everything
From stock I renamed otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old in /etc/security/ <--- No effect
From stock I also renamed com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apk.old in /system/app/ <--- ......I think this is it + it needs something extra
My rom slot has thor-gapps-rom-2.zip installed on it and android firewall is not running on it
Until we're sure what this update breaks and does, stay watchful and power off at night.
DO NOT LET THIS UPDATE INSTALL IF YOU WANT ROOT ACCESS!
How could we prevent the automatic update?

Renaming otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old in /etc/security/ might do it but was never tested. Blocking ip's with iptables or block specific app from gaining a connection. Keeping the HDX off or wifi off. Running from a rom slot may also work for blocking the stock from updating.

You will usually see updates there about 3 to 5 days before they push or are posted to the firmware download page in my experience.
Thank you both Faznx92 and GSLEON3 for the useful tips.

Amazon auto updates. You can't stop it if you want to use wifi for some time. You may see it download but it may just happen. My hdx updated to the current version overnight on standby (back in November). I turn it off at night even though I'm on a safestrap rom slot. I think a lot a people may lose root. I hope the old gapps rom zip I'm using now conflicts with the update software. I also renamed the otacerts file and run Iptables to block some app connections.
I did the Android firewall block so hopefully that'll take care of that. No updates since I did that so can't say it works but I guess we'll find out soon enough.
Is there an app responcible for updating the system?
Yeah, I'm using droidwall. I hope it works too. This site gave some useful info.
here
Airplane mode for the next few days.
My attempts to prevent and update currently include the following:
* Moving of the otacerts as noted on this thread.
* Installed Android Firewall in white list mode and only allowing access to apps as needed so everything I need works.
* From the firewall logs you can see that going into device settings and checking for and update blocks some amazon apps. I have, based on the logs renamed /system/apps/com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apkBak. This has made all subsequent attempts at going into device settings and having it check for an update fail.
I am hopeful all of the above should stop updates. Please note the renaming of a system apk was done in a rom slot after installing safestrap. I would not recommend messing with system apps otherwise. Also there are two other com.amazon.dcp.apk packages. Messing with them will cause some other things to break in settings and will also break the stock launcher(which I use to launch the stock Kindle app which crashes under Apex launcher).
My xposed mod should also prevent ota updates if your rooted.

Unless I'm mistaken & I'm 99% certain I'm not, you have access to all 64Gb of storage. It is a loopback partition with the same shared storage pool, unless you have a gazillion apps, it should be fine. The biggest app files are usually .obb's which reside in /sdcard/android, which again, is in the shared storage. You don't really lose anything, you just only have 4Gb for the secondary (loopback) /system & /data partitions.

New update

Dear guys
I don't know if you know,but I just got caught off guard with the new update.It said it will install when the kindle is IDLE so I panicked. I did a factory reset and it got rid of the download, and still 13.3.2.2_user_322095220.
Please switch the net off kindles, but if you already have it downloaded do a reset! Of course it is a minor update, so I presume it wouldn't do much, and the exploit hopefully would work.
Remember: factory reset!
Doesn't matter. 99% of hdx users have gotten the forced update that blocks root anyway and AFAIK there is no new method.
I'm not factory resetting a device I can't root and have a custom recovery on anyway.

If you are still on version 14.3.1.0 and are rooted, then all you need to do is rename 2 files which has prevented me from updating and I'm able to use wifi all day long. If not rooted, go ahead and root offline, and then rename the 2 files.
rename otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.old in /etc/security/
and rename com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apk.old in /system/app/
I've done this on my 8.9, and still have root and am able to use wifi with no issues and have not been updated. I use my kindle daily on wifi. I tell my kindle to update and it says last update failed.
I've also installed Xposed and am using Google play store.
I'm looking forward to the newer updated software versions being rooted, so that we can go ahead and get the bootloader unlocked.

Can someone explain me why my kindle updated while it was in airplane mode?
I did a factory reset today and just connected to wlan to download some apps. I checked the settings and didn't see any updates downloading. Said my device already has the newest update while it was on 13.3.2.2. I then deactivated wlan and set my device to airplane mode. Now while my kindle was still on airplane mode, I got the message that it successfully updated to 13.3.2.3.2. What the duck is wrong with Amazon. Amazon became Hitler's stasi 2.0.

Well basically I think the way it works is that the kindle already downloaded the update, and the updated when idle. However this is a minor update- nothing to worry about. Just block the download sources on your router and forget about it!!!
Where does the update download to? Can it be deleted before it is installed?

Well considering they haven't released the root yet if it exists.... For the last one. The only people that would know are ones who have been able to test it.. It would be kind of hard for the masses to know the definite answer to that... But allegedly yes the new update will patch that allegedly possible root exploit. That allegedly exist.... That currently I'm sure hundred of tablets are sitting on airplane mode in a desk drawer awaiting for.... So Innoway those who wish to have access roots are paying a price to gain.. Because it is obvious to me the gods are not willing to release yet.

By the way people do do not download either of these on to your Kindle. Your tablet will find them and will apply them anywhere you put them.. So in other words if you have the OTA blocked successfully. And you download one of these onto your tablet it WILL find and attempt update. Which as far as I know is exclusive to this tablet..

Update 1314.3.2.6

HDX - https://s3.amazonaws.com/kindle-fire-updates/update-kindle-13.3.2.6_user_326001820.bin
HDX 8.9 - https://s3.amazonaws.com/kindle-fire-updates/update-kindle-14.3.2.6_user_326001820.bin
Root possibility - yes, Towelroot.

Root possibility - unknown.You can try and tell us)
But boot.img is totally similar to x.3.2.5 and changed files are apps, frameworks and trapz_scripts only. So towelroot must work.

2.5 won't let us downgrade currently. I wonder if 3.2.6 will. I really doubt it.
I am 95% positive towelroot will not work, unless Amazon got REALLY stupid (and I don't even have the HDX).

Towelroot still works on latest update but can't rollback.

I am actually getting closer. I think there is something different in the permissions or something of build.prop. I finally have mine showing the older version. About to try a rollback and see if it works. This is from 3.2.5.

I don't know what you mean by "totally similar", but one small change in the boot image is all that is required to patch towelroot. Take every update with a grain of salt...
Ok. I'm new to bin files. How would one go about flashing a bin file?

No Change to Kernel or Recovery

No change to kernel or recovery between 3.2.5 and 3.2.6--binary-compared those files within the BIN archive, and they're bit-for-bit identical.
There were noticeable changes to both kernel and recovery between 3.2.4 and 3.2.5 which probably accounts for 3.2.5---and 3.2.6--unable to roll back.
I can confirm that towelroot works.
So how would I flash a bin file?
I guess no one knows then?

If you are speaking about the update bin file you simply copy it to your sdcard and go to settings/device/system update and check now.

The Kindle doesn't have an sdcard. Do you mean the emulate/0 folder?

btw kindle has partition named sdcard
Can we use safetrap for this version?
I didn't try
but pretty sure that safestrap would work

Just another confirmation that towelroot does support/works to root the latest update ie., 13.3.2.6 :good:
I have not installed SU yet or attempted to block any future updates. I have read that renaming the proper odex file can stop future updates--any info on this method or other ways to accomplish would be appreciated. I would like to prevent losing root when another update comes along.
Thanks all.

Download the HDX toolkit and use the option to block updates.

Marshmallow 6.0.1 security update released, April 2016 (MMB29X)

Available at:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
At a minimum it should fix the CVE-2015-1805 vulnerability. If you see any other changes post here.
The bootloader and the radio are the same as mmb29v.

I'm not seeing that under Shamu Firmware. There is some stuff for it under Binaries, but not Firmware.
UPDATE:
Its showing up now.
This should be the list of the patches in this update. It's the April security bulletin.

MMB29X
Hey all. Ive been off the scene since July. I finally got my replacement N6. As soon as I turned it on, It had this update rarin to go so I installed it. Is this going to have any effect on unlock, root, custom recovery? I ask because it is brand new stock untouched other than the update.
Thanks Fellas

So, I was on the 6.0 Build for a long time but finally decided it was time to update. I moved up to this build and have had some issues. Before I just replaced the Hosts file to get ad blocking. But with the 6.0.1 builds the System is full. Easy workaround was creating a symlink to a hosts file that is placed in /sdcard/ But in this build it seems like it isn't doing any ad blocking. Anyone have any ideas why?
Thanks
Basically I have 3 wants aside from stock, I don't root so I can keep Android Pay, I want ad-blocking, and edit the Build.prop to net.tethering.noprovision=true
Hello all. Has anyone gotten V4A to work with this latest update? I flashed the latest version and ended up locked at the Google Screen. Thank God for backups.

No, its a Nexus. But look into the new SuperUser by Chainfire, it is systemless now. So version 2.67 or higher. Also the system partition is full now. You cant write to it without deleting a couple of items first like unused keyboards.
I have seen so many new versions of Viper, and as I said in my previous post I turned on my phone from brand new, fast boot, unlocked bootloader and rooted. I installed TWRP, version 3001. So at this moment I am stock rooted with TWRP version MMB29X. Can anyone kindly point me to the best and correct TWRP flashable version of Viper? Without V4A, I feel like I have half a phone. Thanks to anyone who can give me a hand. Peace guys.

Well I did what we all need to do and just kept diggin. Turns out wugfresh updated the toolkit for the new updates, I had to reinstall the newest TWRP, and flash the latest V4A. Killer. This is the best app there is for Android by far.

No idea why or what changed. I'm on slow internet at the mo so can't check. Maybe just changed one of the included scripts ?
