ADB status offline when trying to root Kindle Fire I'm trying to root Kindle Fire but it always show "ADB status: Offline" when I start "run.bat". Could you help me out of this problem? :(
I tried to plug, unplug, connect, disconnect the Kindle many times but nothing changes. I'm using Windows 7 x86.
I had the same problem with Kindle Fire Utility, and I actually figured this out.

The install_drivers.bat replaces the driver, which is not what you want! You need both drivers in place, the regular Amazon Kindle one, and the ADB driver. To get it to work:


Uninstall the Android ADB driver in Device Manager (right click to do this)
In Device Manager, right click the Kindle device and select "Update Driver Software", then point it to the included Kindle Fire Utility folder that has the driver /drivers/kindle


Then, it finally worked -- both drivers were in place -- then ADB showed up as online and I could get root, and do all the other stuff with KFU.
