I was given a Kindle Fire HD as a Christmas gift. When traveling, holidays and so on, I usually take a laptop and each day backup photos from our digital cameras to the laptop. The Reasons for getting the Kindle was to save weight by taking Fewer books with me, and leave the laptop at home. However, I have been unable find a way to transfer photos from the cameras to the Kindle without going through a PC, can it be done?
Whoever chose the Kindle was badly misinformed, if it was being sold as a laptop replacement. It is Primarily a device for downloading and displaying media sold by Amazon. To be fair it can be persuaded, albeit reluctantly, to do some of the things a normal Android tablet computer can do but That does not include the USB hosting. This is the Feature That Allows most Android tablets to copy files from memory cards and sticks via a simple and inexpensive OTG (On The Go) adapter cable. Some users have managed to hack the Kindle Fire HD’s firmware and operating system to give it this kind of functionality but it is a complex and risky procedure.
suggest That You sell or pass the Kindle Fire on to someone who wants an e-book reader and media device, and replace it with a proper Android tablet. It shouldhave a minimum of 16GB on board memory, support for USB hosting and, ideally, a built-in SD (or micro SD) memory card reader. You can moonrise transfer and manage your photo files using ES File Explorer, free from Google Play, and all of your e-book needs will be met by the free Kindle app, or free e-reader apps like Aldiko, Better World Books, Cool Reader and FB Reader.
