hey guys got my coupon and am about to order a pure edition..ftw.. lol but I'm going back and forth between white and black front.

real question is if the aluminum band color changes depending on the front color...motomaker makes it look like with white the aluminum is more our aluminum, whereas the black front is accompanied by a darker aluminum...

thanks..
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solutions Etcetera:
Yup. White front comes with silver color aluminum frame. Black is supplied with a darker grey color.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Go with black, it's much nicer looking. With the white you see all the sensors on the front and it looks super cluttered. The black is just... elegant.

if you debloated it, why is it still over 1.33 gigs in size? every debloated rom i've seen, and the one i personally made, were around 600 megs (when extreme debloat comes in), or average about 850 megs... is it the stuff you added?

There is an Xposed module that can do it on rooted stock 4.4.4. I tried it out once but most of the apps I wanted to use crashed in it.

[Fire TV General] jbzcar:
Hello!

Bought a Fire TV from Best Buy today on a whim, and was pleasantly surprised to discover it came with version 51.1.1.0_user_511069920 installed, so I was able to downgrade and root! :cool:

I did my research and was pretty sure it would have come with something newer, I guess these guys don't move very fast at Best Buy, lol.

This thing blows my AppleTV 2 out of the water in terms of performance, specifically XBMC. :good:

Very happy and pleased to be a part of the community! :laugh:
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
Hey congrats. i just did the same as well. I bought 2 from staples. I have been playing toy all day and it is running like a champion! my firmware was the same as yours

I rooted/disabled updates/kodi/some apps/
[Fire TV General] jbzcar:
I am honestly shocked these "old" devices are still just sitting on the shelves!
[Fire TV General] Hav2roll:
I have two rooted Amazon fires and I just picked up a new rootable Fire at BB and after blocking the three recommended websites on AFTV news via OpenDNS, I'm stuck at the "Unable to update your Amazon fire TV" page. Did you guys block all three websites?
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Do this. When you reboot and ensure your not doing wireless. ensure you remove the ssid if you have connected to it and use ethernet. When it starts to show checking for updates, remove the ethernet and it will ask you to login without the update. Then root/downgrade/upgrade/upgrade to rbox.

As for being available. All bestbuys in the area of LA have the firetv's sold out. :( I need to make one more for a friend.
[Fire TV General] Hav2roll:
Thank you for the fast reply. I am running the set up through ethernet and I have the three websites blocked and I've tried pulling the Ethernet and leaving it with the exact same results every time. Has never connected to a Wi-Fi. According to the serial number this is a version 2 if that helps. It try's to connect to update and ends up on the final page telling me unable to update your Amazon fire TV.

---------- Post added at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

I left it on the unable to update your Amazon fire TV page overnight hoping it would timeout and take me to the account page but of course that didn't happen.
[Fire TV General] navigates:
I'm surprised how AFTV hasn't taken a note of this. I suggest return the serial version 2 and find one with Serial 3. For example 70900305 or 303 and so on. You can pick up those serials from bestbuy. You will not be able to get past the update in series 2. I've tried about 5 of the series 2 this last weekend and couldn't get through the forced update.

Another thing to note and change from earlier that the Series 2 will force update to the latest firmware and not the one version up which was the case earlier.

Bad news but at least now you know. Return it and find yourself a serial 3. Best buy in woodland hills, ca had about 10 pieces last week and they are all sold out. Try to find one from best buy in your area. they have the correct ones lying around. where are you located. do you want help doing it?
[Fire TV General] Hav2roll:
Thank you so much for answering me. I didn't come here blind asking you these questions, I have read somewhere about the versions causing issues so for you to confirm that for me is much appreciated. I have four of them that are version two and one of them I tried OpenDNS for the first time and didn't do it correctly so it upgraded to an unrootable version. I've corrected that but now I was being over cautious with the remaining 3 fires I have. This sucks.
[Fire TV General] DEREKTROTTER:
You guys are so lucky still been able to pick up rootable AFTVs.

No wonder people are selling them on eBay for £100+
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Don't get disappointed. If they are returnable, then return them. There are lots that are still rootable at bestbuy. A friend wants one so he is buying a few from all over. I'll revert back with the findings. If I find the rootable versions, I can buy them and sell them straight through if you guys like.
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
Yea i ended up with 3 of them, Kept one and returned the other 2 at staples. Im seriously thinking about going to repickup the other 2

I blocked all 4 actually

i returned 2 rootable fire tv yesterday, might have to go repick them back up
[Fire TV General] Axecaster:
What is the 4th to block?
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Can you also elaborate what serial numbers are you picking up. Is it the 2 series or the 3. IMO 2 are no longer rootable and you cannot get around the forced update.
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
atv-ext.amazon.com

a1910.d.akamai.net

They were all rootable. I checked the serials numbers with the checker http://www.aftvnews.com/amazon-fire-tv-serial-number-decoder/

Im seriously thinking about going to get them again, I dotnt care for root, I just want xbmc
[Fire TV General] navigates:
the decoder is flawed. If you get the series 2, you cannot get past the forced update by pulling out the ethernet. With series 3 you can. Hence asked what serials are you referring to.
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
Your not lisiening.

I use the decoder on all 3 boxes and it was correct. It allowed me to root and I have my box now. The other 2 boxes serial numbers were closely simliar, and on top of that I took the fire tv out the box just to check the serial numberand it had the same firmware as the first tv i rooted

All 3 boxes were rootable> i bought these boxes 2 days ago, and i kept 1 box that is rooted and returned the other 2,I never knew they were in high demand so im going to go back to the store i rerturned them too and buy them again and resell them!

They must have been series 3 since I could root by pulling out the ethernet cord

I rooted by pulling out the ethernet cord and it worked right away!

Hope i explained well! Why do you ask? Do you want them?

Update; Just checked the serial numbers and i called the store to check the serial number son the other 2 they all start with 709003 which indicates series 3
[Fire TV General] navigates:
I understood what you said in the first place. Anyways we are talking the same thing. Yours must be series 3 as the decoder says series 3 is rootable. the flaw in the decoder is that it shows series 2 as rootable which is incorrect. AFTVnews should correct that as it misleads people.
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
Update: Just checked the serial numbers and i called the store to check the serial number son the other 2 they all start with 709003 which indicates series 3
[Fire TV General] navigates:
correct those are golden. They are perfectly rootable with the ethernet trick.
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
Do you think i should buy them? if i do where to sell them and how much?
[Fire TV General] navigates:
If you fix them up and sell on ebay you can get about 160ish or slight more with shipping and fees you'll get 145. Your cost 108. So about 35 bucks which I don;t think is a lot for the hassel you go through. not to mention, the buying customer can always be a pain; I have an extra for myself as I like tinkering with mine all the time and if I ever brick mine, I have a backup. :)
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
yea shipping/ebay and paypal fees will come to about $15..Even tho some are going for $185
[Fire TV General] navigates:
If you can start it up and quickly just root it, and sell it for 185. That would be nice. Now if you have to downgrade and upgrade and then put the boot menu and then put kodi and then put google play and all the customizations. that will take at least 1.5 hours to the minimum.
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
2 hours is well worth $50 to me

On another note how do I install google play on this fire tv?
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Its straight forward. You have to install about 4-5 apks including busybox. I have a batch file that does it except the busy boy and framework. I've timed myself. I can finish it all in 1 hour 15 mins. but it does take time to transfer files etc.
[Fire TV General] Axecaster:
Are these additional blocks a recent development?
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Here is the list of my google play apks. in this order.

adb install "HDXPosed-1.3.apk"

adb install "Google Services Framework 4.0.4-338691.apk"

adb install "Google Play services_4.4.52 (1174655-036).apk"

adb install "com.redphx.markethelper-2.0.beta.apk"
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:

right now im just rooted, no unlock bootloader or anything

do i just install those apk's?

[Fire TV General] porkenhimer:
I honestly think they are using a diffferent server to install updates, cause I never was effected by updates til the last one in December. I got no warning, no popup, it simply updated itself then rebooted after telling me it had just updated. The next day I googled it and seen a bunch of sites where people were sayin that the same exact thing happened to them the day before. Not saying they are doing it to everyone, but I do believe they have found a way to get past people blocking updates on their router. Its the only thing that makes sense to me, cause my Fire TV never updated til the last update so they have to be doing something different. Guess I will wait and see if it updates me this time, but it hasn't yet.
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Interesting read. I have those blocked on my router as well as the update disabled with /su. I hope that works as I've done up about 20 firetv's that way for family and friends.
[Fire TV General] jljaries42@gmail.com:
Refurbished AFTVs from Amazon for $79 -

Has anyone tried rooting these?
[Fire TV General] vipercoyote:
Thats what i did block updates via fire tv with/su. as long as it blocked their it wont even check for updates
[Fire TV General] navigates:
Yes ppl have tried but now it all depends on which version of firetv you get. I got 2 additional rootable ones which I'm going to return back to bestbuy.

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------

I sold my updated firetv and regot it from bestbuy and rooted it. total net loss is about 25 dollars. :)
[Fire TV General] ant17:
The 2 wire ATT router cannot disable updates, sooooooooooooooo, I used adb to apply the disable update script.

[Fire TV General] hoanganh322:
Hi guys, I have a fire tv with serial 709002014152025, can I root this fire tv?
[Fire TV General] navigates:
In my experience there are a few series 2 that are rootable without the forced updates. Try the ethernet trick and blocking updates to see if you can enfore the firetv to boot up without the update. if you can do that then you are set. follow on. Now if you had the series 3 such as 70900305xxx. then for sure the ethernet trick would work. I've purchased one on ebay brand new sealed with serial 303 and am almost sure that is a good rootable one.

Give it a shot. you can never say for sure unless you try it out. Here is what the decoder says for your serial

Rootable: Yes

Likely Software Version: 51.1.0 or 51.1.0.1

Manufactured: By Foxconn on 4/8/2014

Hardware Revision: 02

Unit Revision: 01

Condition (New or Refurbished): New

Assuming you have not updated it by now. ! where did you pick this one up from? staples?

I noticed recently that when booting up my OPO I see the 1+ logo, however there is a text in the bottom that is cut off.

I noticed this after flashing the Sabermod ROM, but now I have flashed back to BlissPop ROM. There is no issues with the phone or recovery, everything works fine, however its just that boot logo.

Is something wrong with my bootloader or is the boot logo corrupted? See the pic attached.

I found I made a mistake with the unlock, which explains why couldn't flash the kernel.

The IMEI I had wasn't the right one. I took the number out of the battery since the phone doesn't start and couldn't use the #60#

Once I used the flashtool-> BLU option and accepted the suggested IMEI and went and got the code from sony page and then it worked.

Then went and booted in fastboot mode and still couldn't use the kernel. Hower using command line it succeeded.
