Amazon Kindle Fire - Discussion (Post # 3013)Secondly To charge the device, you need to buy an adapter from the "American plug to the European". For example, such
Amazon Kindle Fire - Discussion (Post # 2936) Charge better with original charging as it gives 1.8 A.
Thirdly To connect the Kindle Fire to a computer, you need to purchase a “usb - micro-usb” cable (type B) - suitable cables from Nokia and Samsung phones.
In the fourth It is necessary to download any free explorer via Amazon Market (from the device itself) (for example, ES File Explorer) and set it in the settings “Allow installation of unknown applications”
Now you have an almost full-fledged device, but do not forget that the video is only in
"mp4" , books in format
"mobi" and
"pdf" , and they can be uploaded only in the documents folder, otherwise the device will not find them (the subfolders in the documents folder will also not be understood by the device).
For recording to another location, playing other formats and converting, use third-party programs, or converters. (For playing video for example
MX Video Player or
Moboplayer , for reading
Cool reader etc.)
To install any third-party programs, you need to create any folder in the root “for example folder 1” and copy the * .ark file there, then launch it through Explorer.
Programs and games can be taken from our forum (see
Android - Programsand
Android - Games), from Amazon Market, from Android Market (if you make root), from markets that can be used without root (see the Topic Cap).
