Amazons feeble attempt to block root already Thwarted

Last week we let you guys know that Amazon was pushing an update out to the Kindle Fire. The update came labeled as 6.2.1 and as with most updates, took root away. What Amazon also tried to do was block the ability to reroot the low-cost tablet again via normal methods. Well, we knew that was going to be a waste of their time and resources and that it wouldn’t take but a few days for root to be regained by the wonderful developers that we all rely on for everyday life. Thanks to a group of awesome developers root is once again as easy as installing an app and hitting a button. If you inadvertently got stuck with a non-rooted tablet and wish to pursue all that is root, head on over to Rootzwiki for all the information needed to get back on track after that wonderful update.
