Amazon Fire HD8 - Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I just got an Fire HD 8 on black Friday and am wondering if there is any custom rom for it? I do not want to use Fire OS and want to see if I can root and install a custom ROM. I notice on another forum that there is a custom ROM for Fire tablets, but I am not sure if that will work for the HD 8. Hopefully there is something that can be done for this tablet.
Hope something can be done. Please let me know if this is possible.

No root or custom roms on the new 8 HD yet it seems Hopefully soon!

[Q] Want CM11 but unsure Yoga 2 10

I'm buying this tablet later today off of Lenovo's website, but I've looked at the custom ROM it comes with and I don't think I like it very much. I've noticed that there are no other ROM's available for this tablet so I want to try and port CyanogenMod .
I've never flashed a custom ROM before but I have rooted many devices many times. I was wondering if anyone has either ported an CM build for this device or if anyone knows if its very risky to port and flash my own build. Thanks in advanced!

So there will never be a custom rom for this devices?

What should I do with my Kindle Fire HD 8 (6th Gen)?

Hello,
I recently resurrected my old Kindle Fire HD 8 (6th Gen) running Fire OS 5.3.6.4. I really have no idea what to do with this thing. The stock OS is slow as snot and doesn't have much functionality. Would love to get a custom rom running (if that's available) or at a minimum a custom launcher. Any suggestions / tips on what's possible?
