amazon kindle fire hd

I seem to be missing the mark with these devices. The first one, 7", Sent back do to a battery issue, needed charged constantly, finally replaced it about a month later for one that seems to work and stay charged better. I get myself a paperwhite, to find it has some glitching issues where it...

So, While helping someone buy a new computer today I was playing with the new Kindle Fire HD. My thoughts on it, as an owner of the 1st gen Fire... It's a lot lighter than the 1st gen, but it just doesn't feel as well put together, I'm not sure it could take the knocks that mine has taken...

Considering the KFHD. I have a RazrMaxx with unlimited data plan. Is there an advantage getting the KFHD from Amazon, or can I get it anywhere? Will I just be able to use 4G or wireless right out of the box or will I have to notify Verizon(my carrier) and pay some additional fee? Is there...

I just got a Kindle Fire HD which Im planning to give away as a gift to a friend. But I need to boot it and write a review on my website before giving it. So, how can I make it look like I never switched it on? When we boot the tablet, it'll give us a setup wizard. After resetting, we will...

Hi All, I bought 3 Kindle Fire HDs from Best Buy on Black Friday (in another state). All three have what I would call noticeable light bleeding from the corners of the viewing area. It can be seen very clearly while the unit is booting up (kindlefire splash screen) - its in the corners on the...

While browsing the web, I am getting constant crashes on the SILK browser. I thought this was a tried-and-true browser and did not expect to have this much trouble. I have read several threads on the AMAZON site also discussing problems with the browser. If anyone has any thoughts or...

I got tired of not being able to do anything, at least easily. I can't get google apps. I can't get play store. I can't get a real keyboard. I can't use a grown up launcher. I rooted it, I installed other stuff, it didn't seem to work well that way. So I took it back, and got a Nexus 7...

Hi everybody! This thread will be a long-term report to see what happens when a Android tablet user (I own a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, rooted with Android 4.1) dives into the world of Amazon. I also own a Galaxy S3 as my phone. I'll be updating this as I go along. First off, why pick...

So, I put some movies on my KFHD. I converted them and they play flawlessly, I have no issue there. My problem comes with the way my KFHD display's icon with no titles. So, the only way to know what a movie is, is to play it. There's no way (at least not one I can find) to edit the "grid/list...

I'm considering buying a Fire HD for my both of my sons for Christmas. They are 8 and 7 years old. I'm not sure if this is a great idea or not, but they are both begging for a Nintendo DS. I think something like a tablet would offer some gaming (I really don't think they need a full on gaming...

I have recently acquired a Kindle Fire HD, 7". After having problems with Amazon's applications not being updated quickly enough, I decided to look for an alternative to their app store. I noticed that Google Play does not have the same issues, and decided to try to install it. After a little...

My alter ego on a travel forum (same user name, the one I use everywhere), wrote this review of the Kindle Fire HD earlier today. I own a Nexus 7 and an iPad 2 myself. I bought my sister a Fire HD for her birthday and she bought it round over the weekend. I had a play and I mostly like it...

I just recently got a Kindle Fire HD, and I was surprised at how restricted it was, so I rooted it. I've now successfully installed the google play store (the main reason I rooted it) and I have a few questions regarding google play and rooting. Please answer any or all questions that you can...

So, earlier this month I decided to update my sisters 3g keyboard kindle to the fire HD for her birthday. She loves it, but I noticed she spends more time on her old kindle then the HD. When I asked her about it, she tells me it needs charged. I guess the device spends more time charging then...

nvm

I just got a Kindle Fire HD and was downloading some apps onto it just fine. After I DL'd a handful though, every app I open in the store just says "Save for Later" theres no green "Get app" button. I click save, go to my save list, and still can't DL it. I didn't DL a whole lot of apps, so I...

How do I create folders with the Fire HD like I could with my older Kindle?

Can anyone verify the ability to install the Nook app on the new fire HD? I doubt you can install it from the store but has anyone side loaded it yet? I get in theory why Amazon does this but it makes it really hard to get away from the Nook platform. I'm thinking of getting my wife one but...

Just got the HD, and I must say it's a huge upgrade in terms of hardware and performance. Not going to replace my Nexus 7 for general Android enjoyment, but if you have bought a lot of stuff from Amazon like me, this is a good tablet.
