When did you buy it?
You realise that since the fire HD came out the "standard" kindle fire that is now available is NOT 1st gen, it's 2nd. They upgraded some of it's internals but it still has the same screen, which is why it is not a fire HD.
Check out this thread in 2nd gen it may offer assistance

Ciao Ebisco, to root my KF v10.2.4 I have to use only one of these two guides or both?
