It seems the forums are mostly used for when something is wrong...and nothing wrong with that. But, I just have to say, I really like my HTC Inspire 4G phone. It isn't the greatest phone in the world, but it was free on my plan, and I have been very happy with it. The latest upgrade made me...

Is your Kindle Fire rooted, or are you using the stock email program? I have never had an issue with the stock email program, so I'm not familiar with the issue you're describing.

Most people haven't actually bricked their devices. They just think they have. The bad news is, you may have actually succeeded. When you try to restore the original rom it removes the boot software that lets you do a recovery. If the restore isn't successful, then you also don't have a way to...

In theory, there could be an app out there that could do that. Especially if you are loading apps that are not part of the Google or Amazon store (ie. downloading apks from random websites). When you get an app from the store, it will list the permissions. This is one of those things that some...

Actually, if you have installed Ice Cream Sandwich on your Kindle, then you are most likely rooted. On your Windows computer you have Admin Accounts and regular user accounts. Typically, Android devices run as regular user accounts. When you "root" your device, you are basically giving your...

Are you using a third party launcher like ADW or Go Launcher EX? If so, you'll need to follow this: [Q] Rooted with Go Launcher, but can't read books - xda-developers See the second page for the answers. If your device is just rooted, but still running stock launcher, then you have a different...

If you can boot into TWRP, you are still okay. You should be able to mount the Kindle SD card still. Copy over a ROM and install like normal. You still have your bootloader installed and working. This will help explain: [GUIDE] Kindle Fire For Beginners - xda-developers

That's one of those features that I think would be awesome, but isn't there. Nothing worse than when I pick it up and my daughters have put all my games beyond my skill level. So the short answer is, no. It is designed as a single user device.

See if this thread doesn't help you with the issue. There is a link someone provided for the file as well in the body of the thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414383&highlight=original+amazon+kindle

This update wasn't terribly exciting. I keep hoping for some ability to modify the launcher a bit more, at least wallpaper. Also, I would love it if they would stop making the side-loaded apps Icons fuzzy. I have liked the reading view on the web, and still think the Kindle Fire is pretty...

rap1833, The Kindle Fire uses an older format from the Pocket PC/Palm Pilot days called Mobipocket. You can modify the files, add art work, and if you are creative enough, you can even create a table of contents and the like. As long as the files are not DRM protected. Here is a helpful link...

I'm very interested!!

I've never tried to stream videos from my PC. I would think the ES File Explorer would let you do that, as it will map a drive to a server, and then use the Native video software, but that wouldn't work for DIVX. All of my videos are in the MPG4 format. I should try playing them on the Fire, I...

I have my Android phone for music (and a 32 GB storage card). I love to use Netflix on my Kindle Fire, read books and browse the web. All things that it does better than my phone. I have a Kindle and love it for reading books, but the Fire is better at night (black screen with white text) makes...

This has been driving me nuts too. I sent a complaint to Facebook. I don't see this being Amazon's issue, as they just have a link to the webpage, not an actual app. I would prefer an actual app, though.
