Root [1st Gen] Rooted Kindle Fire (1st Gen) problems

Hello everyone.
I just rooted my kindle fire 1st gen (6.3.1) using the Kindle Fire Utility 0.9.6
The instructions I found online indicated that I should use option 2 (Install Permanent Root with Supervisor).
Rooting was successful.
I tried to sideload Subway Surfers. However, the software keeps crashing
Did I miss a step somewhere?
Thanks
 
Which ROM are you running... Is it rooted stock? Whatever it is......one thing I noticed about my rooted Kindle is some apps simply won't work on some ROMs and other ROMs they will work just fine. A recent example is my wife's rooted Kindle......I've never had a problem running Fruit Ninja but the particular ROM she has now (a JB ROM)....the game will immediately FC! If it is an app you can't live w/o, I would suggest you try a different ROM :)
