Thanks to all that have posted here the FireOS version number, of the 4.6.1 update, that they have received on their unlocked USA Fire phones!

I would like to inform here, that now because the new FireOS 4.6.1 is based on KitKat, the Google-Camera APP (official from Google), is working flawlessly and I think that better than the original Fire- Phone Camera APP...

I also would like to know, if someone has noticed that with this new 4.6.1 update, the GMail APP (original from Google), has stoped sending notifications every time a new Email is received?
[Amazon Fire Phone] rbeavers:
Worked Great all Google services working !!

Thanks.
[Amazon Fire Phone] TheDynamo:
Hi, UK on O2 - didnt even realise it was unlocked until i borrowed a friends vodafone sim which worked in phone. Anyway that aside tested with new rom in post and works great. Also sideloaded updated google play with no issues (white screen initially but reboot resolved completely) no messages for map updating etc.

No phone acts and looks like a normal android phone after installing 3rd party launcher.

VERY VERY Happy!
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
I am sorry to hear that. You should have unlocked your phone first before flashing anything else on it. I think your only option is to reflash the German ROM and get an unlock code from somewhere.

Moto360 works great with this US version

Moto360 works great with the last update now and the update has to be the 4.6.1 US versions ending in 820 and not 320

I had the one ending in 320 and was not working and Google services was working from time to time, but now with the update ending in 820 everything was fix with latest google services and latest play store and Google maps all working great and obviously Android Wear for my Moto360 that works like a charm

If you have questions let me know and I will try to help

I have an AT&T fire phone unlocked.

How do I download mega file link?

I am confused as to how to get the file...
[Amazon Fire Phone] brthrjon:
Ditto for me. How do I get the file on my phone. I don't have mega client and can't install because I haven't done the upgrade. Rinse repeat. :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
One way to do it is to use a PC to open the mega link and download the bin file. Then you connect the phone to the PC and copy the file to /sdcard the on your phone go to settings, device, install system updates, and it will see the file and install it for you.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Kramar111:
[MENTION=4400134]jgriesshaber[/MENTION]
[MENTION=6681858]brthrjon[/MENTION]

just use Chrome or Opera for download

not Firefox or Internet Explorer :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] brthrjon:
File Corrupt... Can't get installer to rerun

So I downloaded the file to my phone. Ran the upgrade. Got a warning about the file being corrupt.

However, the phone now thinks it has run 4.6.1 and doesn't recognize the .bin file as having an upgrade in it.

Anyone know how to convince it to rerun the upgrade?

TIA.
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
You can install the update onto your system as many times as you want by recovery sideloading. In a nutshell, you need to boot your phone into recovery and use adb to Sideload the update. This requires seting up the adb connection and drivers, knowing how to boot into recovery, etc, all of which can be learned by either a Google search or looking through the xda forums. For example you can find a lot of information in this rather old piece that is of course written for a different purpose: http://www.droidviews.com/easlily-root-amazon-fire-phone-using-towelroot/

Could some body please confirm that is is safe to update my O2 locked UK 4.6.1 (3320) phone to the U.S. Unlocked 4.6.1 (3820) version to be used in the UK with O2?

I see that once updated there is also now way back to the original?

Thanks!

[Amazon Fire Phone] TheDynamo:
Hi, yes its fine. I have the same.
[Amazon Fire Phone] daniellsg:
Did it work?? I'm the same as you! :) locked O2 device
[Amazon Fire Phone] WalkableBuffalo:
Yes it works perfectly, updated to it myself, locked O2 user also, not had any issues yet, Google Play Store works perfectly
[Amazon Fire Phone] jammydav93:
Yes Play Store works perfectly for me too, Can't comment on carrier related things like signal as yet to get my SIM card in the phone but so far so good!
[Amazon Fire Phone] DForce:
Hi sorry for the newbie question but does this mean using the US 4.6.1 ROM on a locked o2 UK device will enable you to use any carrier on it?(I'm on Tesco and it's refusing my sim)
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
This thread is about an update file for an unlocked phone. If your phone is unlocked to begin with it may accept this update and work. However, if you phone is not unlocked by the carrier then simply flashing an update file will not unlock it.
[Amazon Fire Phone] DForce:
Thanks Najoor, I saw responses from TheDynamo, WalkableBuffalo so I'm assuming that a locked Uk o2 phone can be flashed with the unlocked rom, it wasn't obvious from the post/replies if other carriers are actually working fine(jammydav93 is still waiting for his sim), hence the post, hope one of the above can clarify this!
[Amazon Fire Phone] jammydav93:
SIM tray arrived this morning - I can confirm that Tesco SIM works when using the US firmware on a UK phone as Tesco runs on O2's network, I'm can make/receive calls fine.
[Amazon Fire Phone] DForce:
Thanks, will try this! :good:
[Amazon Fire Phone] miles650:
Hi, my fire phone is the UK O2 version and was originally on the O2 320 version of fire os 4.6.1. I have now updated to this US unlocked 4.6.1 rom and google play is now working perfectly. I was just wondering, as I have manually installed this update will I still continue to receive OTA updates such as the upcoming 5.0 version but instead of them being the UK version will they remain the US version? Or will I now have to continue manually updating from now on?
[Amazon Fire Phone] nifear4:
Worked like a charm :D. I hate ATT apps :P. Thanks for providing the .bin file OP
[Amazon Fire Phone] sapps:
[MENTION=5769394]najoor[/MENTION], I just purchased the Amazon Fire Phone from here. It appears to be AT&T locked (which was originally fine with me because that is my carrier), but says it comes with the unlock codes.

I don't have any plans at the moment to root, but I definitely want Google services on the phone. I guess my question is what suggestions would you have for me when I get the phone. I'm guessing I would follow this procedure.

Turn on the phone and register it with amazon to receive the free year of prime.

use the unlock code to take of the ATT restriction

sideload the 4.6.1 (820) update that you posted

install google apps using instructions found elsewhere

Does that sound like a good plan? you have any other suggestions or things to look out for?

Thanks for you help.

Sapps
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
Strictly speaking you don't have to root because this ROM leaves you with a lot of possibilities in terms of disabling the apps and such. The steps you mentioned above, all good steps. What I would add is that after you install the 820 update and have registered your phone on amazon, immediately disconnect from the internet and disable the following apps: Amazon Communication Services, Amazon Metrics Service Application, Amazon device client platform, DCP platform contracts, and two apps called System Updates in Amazon settings. This way, Amazon will no longer update your apps (or possibly patch your phone's root vulnerability) and also it will significantly reduce your wakelocks and increase the standby battery life because the phone will not constantly chat with amazon servers every 5 minutes. If you don't use Amazon's app store and kindle, disable them too to save a bit more power, but they won't patch your system otherwise.

What I am about to say is not a fact, rather an opinion. I am not a big fan of google apps and I have grown less and less inclined to use the whole google framework over time. It used to be possible to instruct google services not to back up anything, not to poll the location all the time, and not to send location data to google servers 5 times an hour. But that is no longer possible, say on samsung or sony phones unless you completely disable the google framework, which immediately renders youtube and maps useless; the only two tools that I use from google. On a phone like fire phone there are good functional alternatives to all google tools already installed, even after you disable the chit-chat with Amazon. So I have, on my own phone, not installed gapps and have sideloaded whatever apk I need. Again, this is super subjective so you do what works best for you.

Edit: don't forget to disable Kinesis service which is responsible for major battery drain and heating. You will find it under settings, display, configure motion and gesture settings. Disable all.
[Amazon Fire Phone] sapps:
thanks very much for the reply. I am sure I can do without the google play store. My biggest concern was how the phone was going to handle all of my contacts (which are all stored in my google account) and how it was going to work with gmail. But I am sure I can figure all that out as time goes on.
[Amazon Fire Phone] nifear4:
I believe you are good to go.

EDIT: You might wanna watch your battery usage and see if google services eats up a lot or not. I had to force-quit it once and restart the phone then it went back to normal.
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
I forgot to mention that you should disable the Kinesis_service which is the tracking of your head movements using the four front facing infrared cameras and drains the battery like a mother. I also modified my earlier response to your question to minimize the services you should disable so that your instant video and other things can still function.

[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:

Big thanks i have downloaded the file... and firmware successfully done... but the phone is still lock ... SIM NETWORK unlock pin
[Amazon Fire Phone] :
If a device is netlocked, it will stay netlocked, no matter what firmware version is installed. The only way to unlock your phone for all providers: entering a code provided by (for example) Amazon, AT&T, T-Mobile, O2.

HELPPPPPPPPPPP a newbie

I am a newbie to Android and to Fire Phone. I recently moved from iPhone.

How can I get google play on my phone? I recently got new Fire phone and it has version 4.6.8.

I've tried following steps from numerous posts (all basically the same steps, just different versions of apk files), but to no avail. I am able to open google play and download apps immediatly after installing it, but then it crashes and just hangs on a white screen. Neither have I been successful in getting any of the google apps to run.

Sir my phone is stuck on amazon and just blinging with amazon black window,

can u explain the procedure to flash phone with this bin file??
[Amazon Fire Phone] filxy:
hello

Is this the 4.6.6.1 OS version ?? my fire phone is stuck in a bootloop i tried doing adb but it doesn't complete while the updates are installing it restarts itself and goes into a bootloop again .It was working fine with the charger 3 days back and when i used to unplug it would starts the bootloop but now it is happening with the charger as well .what should i do plz help ?
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
No. This is 4.6.1, not 4.66.1.

If you don't know what your firmware was before this happened the safest thing to do is to download the latest firmware from Amazon support page and flash it onto your device in fastboot mode and it will be fixed.

If any of the above doesn't make sense to you Google it. There is a ton of help available online about how to do it.
[Amazon Fire Phone] filxy:
I know my firmware ,i was confirming about the one you posted. and yes i did download from support page and did adb sideload but before it would give me a adb success message my phone restarted.

I used Hammoud Abbass Rom as based Rom, and copied those files from V2 in priv app folder (SystemUi, Secsettingsprovider, Secsettings, SecMyFiles2014,SecMms_blue, SecContacts.) and paste in priv app base rom

And from framework folder (framework-res) and paste in framework base Rom. The phone reboot automaticaly and everthing works fine with full V2 themed, until the microphone when handsfree calling.
