It's even more simple now for those who are interested. No reboots required, and it works great on my new HD 8. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=3486603

The HD 8 2016 is also way better than the 2015. More ram and a newer and better processor too - it's 64 bit now. It also has a larger default heap size. I had trouble running more than a few apps at at time on the old one, and one app that had a specific warning that it couldn't function properly on Fire tablets works great now.
