Can't get Kindle Fire emulators to work

Connecting to Fire 8.9 via USB

I posted a couple of weeks ago about not being able to get a 1920x1200 (Amazon Fire 8.9 HD) emulator to work with B4A. Since nobody responded, I bought a Fire 8.9. Now I cannot get B4A to recognize it.

When I tried Bluetooth, my computer finds it but when I say to connect, it times out. When I turn the Fire's Bluetooth on, it says to make sure the other device is using "166220", but that is not an option on my computer.

I got B4A Bridge onto the Fire, but when I try to connect with B4A, it just never connects. No reason as to why.

I have both these problems with my other tablets, so it's probably my computer, but I have no idea what's causing them.

So my last chance is to get USB to work. I'm trying to follow the directions at https://developer.amazon.com/sdk/fire/setup.html, but it says that in the SDK Manager under Extras, there should be a line for "Kindle Fire USB Driver" which is not there.

The page https://developer.amazon.com/sdk/fire/connect-adb.html#Prerequisites says "In your Android SDK directory, at \extras\amazon\kindle_fire_usb_driver, run KindleDrivers.exe" but that file is not there either. Following the instructions on these pages, I had previously used SDK Manager to download the Extras and other Kindle files and they all show up.

I've Googled for Kindle Fire USB Drivers and KindleDrivers.exe but couldn't find the driver(s).

Surely someone on here is connected to a Fire. Can you tell me where to find the drivers?

I would still like info on getting the emulator for it going as well, but I would settle for the driver.

Please?

Well... After posting the above message, I looked in SDK Manager one more time. Clicked Tools and Manage Add-On Sites then User-Defined Sites and the URL I had put in to download the Fire files was no longer there, so I typed it in again, returned to the main SDK manager screen, and the Fire driver line appeared. So I installed it and followed the rest of the directions and am now connected to the Fire.

I have no idea why driver line didn't show up and/or install before nor why the URL line disappeared, but that's computers...

I would still love to know how to get the emulator working.

Hoi,

i haven't a kindle, but reading this or this let me think it couldn't be very difficult to connect.

If i placed the Amazon-url in the AddOnSites, 2 Drivers are automatically installed in the Android SDK - and stay there, also if i restart the tool.

Maybe a failed installation somewhere ?
