1. Get a USB cable
Chances are that at some point you’ll want to transfer files from your computer to your Kindle Fire. You’ll want to purchase a micro-USB to standard USB cable since it doesn’t come with one. If you have a cable from an existing smartphone or other device, it will work with your Kindle Fire.
2. Stock up on free ebooks
3. Send Documents
Learn about the system the Kindle Fire uses for documents. You can transfer PDF, TXT and PRC formatted documents to the device using a USB cable, or send them to the email address listed within the ‘Docs’ app and they’ll instantly be available to read on the device.
4. Download a file manager
6. Change the User Agent in the Browser
By default, the Kindle Fire is setup to optimize for each web site, which often means the mobile versions of web pages. Such pages are limited in the features they include. The device is fully capable of displaying full versions of web pages just fine though. Go into the Browser and select “Menu” > “Settings” and change the “Desktop or mobile view” setting to “Desktop”.
