Root or not to Root

yankgirl · 07-29-2015, 10:10 AM

I upgraded my Kindle HD7 and got a HDX. I was thinking of rooting my HD7, but I'm not sure what the benefits are. Anyone root their kindles? Does it help? What changes?

TIA

I have 2 2012 Fire HD 7 tablets. Both are rooted using n2aOS. It completely wipes the Fire interface and makes it into a regular Google tablet with all the Google suites. We like them.
