thank you will test it :)

To hide Icons, you don't need to do such complicated steps.

1st.: in notification panel just press and hold the settings Icon for 2-3 seconds and release, then the Icon will turn around and open a new setting in the settings section called "system ui tuner".

2nd.: in there you navigate to statusbar

3rd.: there you can turn on/off all the needed Icons, thats it.

See attached Screenshots :svetius:

Hello

Recently received this item https://www.aliexpress.com/item/DHL...00002254023.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.GBBX1z from what I can tell its got a bunch of bloatware on it, reports 32GB as 64GB storage and incorrectly reports CPU type, should be MTK8752 but is actually MT6735. God knows what else is on there. Not planning on using my main google account or anything serious just for kids to play simple apps and video once I lock it down with parenting controls :)

Can anyone advise on a place to get a clean ROM as most likely I will end up with a partial refund rather than all the hassle of having to send the thing back.

Thank you for reading.
[Fire TV General] rockon999:
Hello!

In light of the recent blocking of YouTube on Amazon devices by Google I have put together a list of steps to install Google Play Services and the Android TV suite of Google applications without root. In addition the Android TV YouTube app can view paid content (movies, TV shows, etc)!

This was tested on a Fire TV Stick 2.

Newer versions of these applications may work unless otherwise noted (but have not been tested obviously).

APKS:

Google Play Store (Android TV Version) (com.android.vending_8.5.39.W-xhdpi_8_PR_178322352-80853968_minAPI21)

Google Play Services (com.google.android.gms_11.9.75_230-182402865) [DO NOT USE THE ATV VERSION]

Google Accounts Manager (com.google.android.gsf.login_4.4.4-1227136-19)

- The KitKat (4.4.4) targeting branch is the only one to support Fire TV.​

- Other branches will crash (5.x, 6.x)​

Gmail 5.6 (com.google.android.gm-5.6.102685581.release-56008676)

- Newer versions may work but have stability issues and will crash or fail frequently.​

YouTube (com.google.android.youtube.tv_1.3.11-10311100) [OPTIONAL]

- Unfortunately the latest 2.x series utilizes an unknown, odd method of signing into Google accounts (not system standard) and I have not been able to get it to work. If you don't mind the cookie-cutter Android TV video app style of the 1.x series it works perfectly (update: actually, live videos don't work)! I suspect the 2.x breakage results from Google adapting their web version (youtube.com/tv) instead of making a native app. [UPDATE] You can install the 2.x series AFTER you login on the 1.x series and you will remain logged in. However, the 2.x series has several issues. Mainly purchases are not playable and it crashes occasionally.​

Google Play Movies & TV (com.google.android.videos_3.28.14-tv-32800144) [OPTIONAL]

Google Play Music (com.google.android.music_8.5.6561-3.Y-65613) [OPTIONAL]

Instructions:

1. Install Google Play Services

- Open this once!

2. Install Google Play Store (Android TV)

3. Install Google Accounts Manager

4. Install Gmail

5. Open Gmail

6. Add a Google Account

- This interface is navigable with the remote but easier with a cursor app/mouse.

- If you can't navigate the interface repeatedly press up and down until a shadow appears around the button.

7. All installed Google Apps should now recognize your account has been added.

There you have it!

You should now have access to all the Google content you've been missing, Play Services to allow side loading, and YouTube free of any nasty blocking by Google or Amazon :)

Credits: Thanks to Moose200 and AFTV News for locating the functioning Google Accounts Manager version.
[Fire TV General] atlkidz:
Instead of of putting all these apps on your fire tv 2 just download an app called 'SMART YOUTUBE TV' and sideload it to the device ..the best thing about it is there are no ads..
[Fire TV General] rockon999:
The goal of this guide is to get access to the official Google applications. The official YouTube app allows you to view paid purchases which is not possible with simple wrapper applications. While I prefer to entrust my Google account to official sources, you are welcome to suggest alternative third party applications in another thread.
[Fire TV General] kfernandes29:
Tried this on my Fire TV 3, no luck. Sad.
[Fire TV General] rcrh:
Trying this now on my 1st gen fTV and it would be GREAT to get the google apps working - particularly Music, Movies, & TV.

- play services failed on the first install but working on the second attempt.

- gmail interface was very tricky. It kept looping back to the first screen if I didn't arrow down quickly to select "existing account".

**

Notes:

1) Youtube works but I can't cast to it from my laptop or phone. It doesn't show as an option.

2) Play Movies/TV starts movies but only the audio plays. Trailers play fine though. I only have problems with content I've purchased.

3) Play Music doesn't show "stations". I works great with my library of uploaded music but none of the streaming content works.

I guess the intent was to get Youtube to work so anything else is a bonus.

Thanks for this guide and the links to the working apks.

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

One other thing that really isn't a fault of this guide but only you install PlayMusic it stays live in the back ground and grabs every press of the play/pause button on the remote. It doesn't matter what app you're in, if you press play/paus Google starts playing. Even if you are trying to reboot your fTV Playmusic jumps in there.
[Fire TV General] rockon999:
Thanks for the feedback!

- Occasional failure is to be expected ;)

- I'll look into casting, I'm assuming there is likely a missing library/application that the Android TV version depends on.

- Does purchased content still work in YouTube? On a 2nd Gen Stick I have (frankly) astounding video playback in Play Movies. I'll see if I can play around with this on my old 1st gen and see if another APK version works better.

- I'll also look into Gmail (it is the most stable on 2nd gen, but 1st gen might have some quirks that would necessitate a different version)

- On my FTV if the music is paused in the app it won't continue to run in the background, I'll see if my 1st gen stick operates like yours does.
[Fire TV General] rcrh:
- wow, I didn't know Play purchases could be viewed in Youtube. And yes they work there. FANTASTIC!

- gmail mail isn't an issue. I was able to get through it. I'm assuming it's used just to get an account set up.

- To be clear the behavior for playmusic is: pause music, exit the app, hit play button, music resumes. This happens even if you're in another app that uses the play button.

Let me know if I can provide any additional info. BTW, I'm looking at YoutubeTV and it seems to also work with this set of playservice apks.
[Fire TV General] mijorus:
I can confim it works! Play store doesn't work of course, but you can use any playservices-dependent app with no issues. You can use yalp store as a replacement. Gmail app can be unistalled after you added the account if you want, it still works. Thanks a lot
[Fire TV General] alsatea:
Thank you it worked with me.

I need a working version of Youtube TV app for AFS. I tried phones app but couldn't locate the location of the device. I could not make pass the location check.
[Fire TV General] mijorus:
You can use the old version, still works fine

[Fire TV General] mijorus:
You mean the paid subscription to watch TV steams? Cause there is not that service in my country, I can't help you.
[Fire TV General] iSlaker:
Hey, thanks for posting this method. got a 2nd gen AFTV and been looking online for a few days now and this was the first method that worked, but... like someone else here I can't cast from my phone/laptop. the devices won't see it. I looked everywhere in the app, I'm signed in, but there doesn't seem to be an option to give me a link code. if anyone can figure this out, please let us know. thanks!

Updated the 1.x version of YouTube with the latest 2.x version and remained signed in. got a code and now I'm able to cast to it from my phone. I've not tried live videos or purchased content. For regular uploaded videos it seems to be working fine.
[Fire TV General] Spillunke:
Thanks for the hint! Now its working ;D
[Fire TV General] Warrior1988:
I find it odd that the version doesn't match the code name. Version is 5.1.1 but code name is Kit Kat version did Amazon seriously just make a device with a chopped up firmware?
[Fire TV General] rockon999:
Amazon's Fire OS is Android Lollipop with only *some* of Android TV's systems and no Google APIs. As a result Google apps tend to be finicky on it and generally the older you go for a Google app the less features they depend on (or expect) and thus they're more likely to work.
[Fire TV General] Warrior1988:
Really what it comes down to is Amazon wants their market place to be used for purchasing and can't blame them for wanting to make money.
[Fire TV General] JeffDC:
Did not work on my FTV3.
[Fire TV General] rockon999:
Unfortunately this guide was designed and tested on Gen1/Gen2 devices. FTV3 runs on Android Nougat so these APK versions will likely fail.
[Fire TV General] wisteria 714:
I followed every step in your instructions and It worked like a charmed on the FIRESTICK. I'm able to sign-in to the newest YouTube app without a hitch. Smartyoutube is great but to laggy especially with 1080p 60fps. I don't have lagging now. Before your method, I was using OGyoutube and it worked flawless, I just didn't like the Mobile UI on the big screen. Thank you
[Fire TV General] Warrior1988:
Can someone test something for me? Reason I ask is because I was able to.

Type: adb shell

Then: mkdir /data/local/tmp/test
[Fire TV General] Y2Bogus:
I echo the sentiment of the FTV3 users, I can't get this to work on my Fire TV box on a string. Tried several versions of google services.
[Fire TV General] r.sorujlall:
does this command simply creates a file name test? ask because i'm not so familiar with command line
[Fire TV General] Warrior1988:
wow I didn't even know that Amazon releases their devices source.

mkdir is a command in Unix that is used to create directories/folders in the Unix filesystem. If you want to get real specific, then yes, it IS making a file of type directory. But, for most people on the surface, it's a folder to store more files in.

In this case, it will create a folder/directory called test in the /data/local/tmp folder.

Does anyone know the correct APKs to install for the Fire TV 3?
[Fire TV General] Bellany:
Have i understand this correct that on the fire tv stick gen 2it is possible to install and Use the Google play store?
[Fire TV General] jackal992:
Hi guys!

I was successfully using the method described in the first post to use Youtube (I know about the presence of Smart Youtube TV...) on my Firestick gen 2 basic edition.

Unfortunately with the update to FireOS 5.2.6.3 I was "signed out" from my google account (and from Youtube).

I tried to redo the whole procedure again, cleaning the cache, reinstalling everything, but Gmail cannot sign in to my account anymore, so I'm stuck with using this android tv version of Youtube without being logged in.

Have any of you had the same problem? Did you solve it?

Thank you very much!
[Fire TV General] the great potato:
I just searched on the stick and got a YouTube app and so far it works fine. I do have the play store files but not play store so I can use news on app for local news, don't know if that has anything to do with it.
[Fire TV General] bloomba:
Hello. I tried to install as explained on my Firestick 2Gen

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saboture:
I made a post here and one over on reddit about how I thought my quick wireless charger had fried my phone. In reality, my phone had just deep discharged and I didn't know what had happened. This is all coming from someone who uses 4s LiPo batteries every day. Anyways, last night my phone hit 0% without me noticing and would not take a charge. Even after leaving it on a cable charger all night I woke to a black screen and no boot. I've been researching the issue and it seems like the reports are pretty scattered among Note 8, S8+ and a handful of HTC U11 users. The prevailing method for recovering from it is "stack charging", aside from getting a replacement phone.

Stack charging is a method in which you plug your device into the charger, wait 5 seconds or so and then unplug for 30 seconds and rinse and repeat in what are called cycles. I saw a few people saying this worked for them but after doing it for over an hour my run was unsuccessful. As I was about to call AT&T and order my replacement I said to hell with it and put it on my wireless charger while it was connected (but not charging - that's the symptom) but nothing happened. I took the phone off the charging pad, unplugged the rapid charger cable, put it BACK ON the wireless charger and got nothing but the wireless charger pad lit up. I then plugged in the rapid charger cable while it was charging on the pad and almost immediately a Grey ring with a lightning bolt popped up. It was missing the percentage and the charging animation but it was a development in my case. I let it sit like that for around 10 minutes before it hit 1% and the animation started working. During that time both charging bricks were slightly warm to the touch so I think it was using both to charge, my theory is that the phone was dead enough to not have any kind of active charging management so it was allowing both to work until it hit 1%, which is where I removed it from the pad to charge normally.

So the order of operations here

Place phone on wireless charger - Confirm device is charging via led (mine is blue when charging on the convertible charger

Connect OEM rapid charger

Give it a minute or so.

At this point there should be a grey charging circle. When this changes to 1%, leave it there bit longer until 3% or so just to be safe and remove it from the wireless pad to switch to cable charging entirely.

If anyone can confirm that it was or was not using both charging methods at the same time, by all means please do as I'm genuinely interested in this. This could save people from having to send in their note8/s8+.

If this method DOES work for you, please comment with what you find, this may help a lot of people potentially.

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheMadScientist:
I have had the deep discharge issue on several samsung phones All the way back to the S2 and galaxy stellar Where they would shut off at 0 % up to 10 or 15 and not do anything....I would in sense do the same with a cut off usb cable and jump start the battery, But of course This isnt quite as easy as a removable battery. But this similar method work on my kids tablet in same situation and a old S6 I had sittin here... So this is a good find as it seems to confirm more of what I have noticed over the years....Never thought of it as deep discharge.:cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] emike09:
Fantastic!!!!!!!!! This resolved the issue for me. Thank you so much for the weird resolution. I wonder what it is that makes it work. My theory is the charging pad gives the charge management firmware enough juice to think about what's coming in from USB. Normally the battery has enough juice to do this, but in our case, it did not. Seems a strange design to not allow USB to provide enough power to start the management firmware. My guess is it's related to safety and ensuring that anything that comes in over USB is clean reliable power.

Sorry if this is possibly off topic, I haven't been hit by this "bug" although I've gotten several kernel panics in instances batt goes down to >15pct in circumstances where I am not able to charge. Once I do get it plugged in during above mentioned instances, a few minutes will pass and the message that comes up is "charger is WDT expired". Now I've google that and I've only seen results directly related to OP's issue/fix. If any of you guys know anything about this, I'd really appreciate any info. Should note that I'm rooted and on U2 BL. Thanks guys.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DAvid_B:
Sometimes heating lithium batteries will also kick start charging. I have had devices in the past that would not charge and heating them with a hair dryer helped. Then you have to do the plug unplug thing till the battery gets enough charge to continue charging. I have not done this on a cellphone though.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] peanuts18:
THANK YOU !!!! that worked... granted I didn't have a wireless charging pad and had to go buy one... but I found a cheap walmart one for $10 and it worked just as you said... now charging normally. I have insurance on my phone but would have had to pay $120 deductible and still making payments on the phone, only had it a year. (about 14 days past the 1 year mark of buying it) Thank you for figuring out that combo of jump start charging.. so awesome.
