thanks friend, now it works perfect there is no way to uninstall the amazon app?, again thanks ...

a greeting :good::fingers-crossed::good:
[Fire General] Rortiz2:
mmm, in fire os 5.6.0.X you can not uninstall amazon apps, but the tool clean data and cache of all amazon apps.

If you want to hide them, install nova launcher with the tool and in nova settings go to applications> hide applications and hide all amazon apps

The photos attached show how my fire was after using the tool

Hello, i believe i have installed the adb and fastboot drivers correctly. i went through the Fire Utility tool as mentioned in a previous post and i ran the test for the drivers and they are there. however when i try to downgrade from os 5.6.2 to 5.4 i receive the error of adb:sideload connection failed no devices/emulators found. i have adb debugging enabled. any help would be appreciated.

Seems 1.7 is missing adb.exe in the files folder.

I manually added and able to connect.

I downloaded the 5.4.0.0 bin and put in firmware folder. Also installed the drivers.

Now I have a question. Not sure if this is a Canadian thing but my fire tablet 7 only has OS 5.3.6.4. no update to 5.4 or 5.6.

Your tool says I can downgrade from 5.6 to 5.4 will it work upgrading from 5.3.6.4 to 5.4?

I ran the clean and disable Amazon apps and some worked but not all as expected.

Oh and has anyone looked into adding a restart option to power.

On my fire tablet 8 it has power off and restart

Fire tablet 7 only has power off. (what a terrible design)
[Fire General] DB126:
There is a typo in the number on some 5.6.x builds. Drill down on 5.3.6.4; you will find it's actually 5.6 something which is the latest release.

What to do ?
[Fire General] Rortiz2:
Please go to settings> applications and see if those apps are installed. If it says something like an app not installed for this user, it is that they have already been disabled and the firewall is not needed.

I tried this on my kid's Fire 7 seventh gen. It was on 5.6.x and I ran the downgrade. It went into recovery and completed but. I selected reboot from recovery as instructed. Now the screen is just black. It won't power on. I keep getting the USB connected sound on my PC immediately followed by the USB disconnected sound with about 10-15 seconds between cycles. I tried disconnecting from PC and holding Power for 20 seconds to shut it off. reconnected and it's still looping. Then tried getting into recovery by holding the up and power buttons but nothing seems to work. Any one have any ideas?

[Fire General] RJGill84:
What would I need to remove (and from which script) to keep the Alexa app from being hidden?
[Fire General] Max_Pain:
Hi there.

Got three identical Fire 7s we are trying to de-Amazonize as much as possible to use them as Android tablets instead. All three are freshly reset. All are running 5.6.4.0. All have USB debugging enabled. I installed the Amazon and ADB drivers using your tool. No matter what I've tried, the tablets don't present the RSA key and so the tool fails to do anything it could potentially do because the device is unauthorized. I've tried revoking authorization and trying again. Restarting computer and trying again. Tried with both the latest version of the tool and the one before. There is no RSA key, no authorization prompt, and tool fails.

Ideas?

Thanks.
[Fire General] drizzt09:
By the USB debugging toggle is a revoke option. Try hitting that. Toggling off USB debug and back on then plug back in. See if the prompt kicks in. If not chances are windows is not recognizing anything being plugged into USB at all. Should hear the usb sound. And you should see device appear in Windows Explorer.

Another thing is at the top of the tablet in the notification section it should also recognize it was plugged in. May need to click it and change option from charge to media
[Fire General] Max_Pain:
Thanks for your suggestions. Those are all things i've already tried. Windows Explorer shows the device and asks me what to do with it. The device shows the USB connected in debugging mode. I've already tried revoking authorizations (which I mentioned in my post). I've tried enabling/disabling USB debugging. Nothing i've tried has made a difference.
[Fire General] drizzt09:
And the last one. Changing from charge to media or toggle to midi or whatever the 3rd option is
[Fire General] Max_Pain:
I only have options for media device and camera. Changing those did nothing.
[Fire General] drizzt09:
See if this tool helps establish a connection any better. They are fairly similar tools. Don't want to cross thread two similar tools but in this case one may help you better in your weird circumstance (or may not but worth a try) https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?ur...share_tid=3889604&share_fid=3793&share_type=t
[Fire General] Rortiz2:
1.8

I updated the tool since there was a few errors:

Added a few root options (only for rooted fires)

Now, you don't need to download manually the 5.4.0. The tool will download automatically.
[Fire General] trlkly:
I would like to request that the user be prompted whether they want to restart after installing ADB drivers. There are two reasons:

Restarting may not be necessary: The ADB drivers appeared to be working just fine without a restart, and, in the past, I've installed ADB drivers for other devices without restarting.

The user may have other programs running that they need to shut down. It would be better to let them say "No" and then let them restart manually when they are ready. You aren't even given time to save files with a forced shutdown , unlike with a manual Shutdown or restart. (I'm lucky that my files autosaved.)

I would suggest that you simply add another prompt, saying "ADB drivers may require restarting your computer to work. Would you like to restart now?" Only run the "shutdown /r /t 10" command is the user says yes.

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------

The script needs to pause between resetting the ADB connection and starting the installation of Google Play to give the user time to accept the ADB connection on their device.

It actually missed installing the first app when I did it the first time.
[Fire General] trlkly:
The script is also missing a "GOTO:extra or GOTO:menu" at the end of the :egg section. It jumps straight to the next section. It also does not allow time to accept the incoming connection.

The old 5.3.x scripts would timeout for 10 or so seconds between starting the ADB server and issuing commands, and would include text saying to click OK to "Allow USB debugging" on the device. I think that might be a good idea to implement. Though judicious use of the PAUSE command could also work.
[Fire General] Kaot93:
I have the absolute same problem with my fire. Tried 3 computers and also resetting the device several times, nothing worked. Tried the other tool right now but it didn't work either.

Please let me know when you found a solution.

[Fire General] Max_Pain:
Looks cool. Worked well for the 1/4 tablets, just like the tool from this thread. It did allow me to sideload Launcher Hijack or whatever it's called, which this tool failed to do. So 1/4 tablets is good to go.

No luck. Multiple tools, multiple attempts, all kinds of variations. 1/4 tablets connects well with both tools. The other 3 do not, on either tool. I can't get the tablets to pop up the prompt, no matter what I have tried. :eek:

EDIT: tried two more things. First, I moved all the software and drivers to my laptop. Thinking maybe only one tablet per PC (unlikely but why not try). No change. Still no prompt, no tablet recognized. Then tried resetting the tablet in question. Tried again. Same behavior.

It's got to be a hardware issue???
[Fire General] mrmazak:
You only mentioned resetting the tablets, but did not confirm you had then enabled developer options and turned on USB debugging., I know seems like an obvious thing.

Nevermind. I did not read the history first.
[Fire General] Max_Pain:
Yeah, sorry if it wasn't clear. I thought it was obvious. Developer mode enabled on all of them. USB Debugging was enabled by default in all of them. I've since tried toggling them on and off, revoking authorization, resetting one of the tablets, trying on my laptop as well as the PC. I'm out of clues. And I'm very tech savvy. I am a hobby programmer and hardware tinkerer for about 15 years. I'm out of ideas what else to try.

7th Gen Fire 7 Alexa here, already used the other "Tool" to debloat, installed Google Play Store & took care of OTA update, etc. - couldn't unzip V1.3 or V1.2 of this on the laptop but finally managed to do it on a desktop.

Successfully cleared out & reclaimed a little extra space (8 GB capacity, very limited as is - got this as a gift, can't complain about it) and with this tool, deleted almost remaining Amazon Apps still showing (Maps & Kindle, etc.) on the tablet. Newstand is remaining, that's about it.

I'm glad that the tool has been useful for you.

[Fire General] Letitride:
I downloaded the zip files (V1.2 and V1.3) & MD5 checked fine, but - couldn't open or finish unzipping it, frozen at 5% to 10% on the Dell laptop (well, it's "older" hardware - never had trouble like that) No big deal - unzipped it on a Dell desktop & gave it a go to use this Tool of yours. Thank you for the work.

I had previously used RootJunky's SuperTool to do all that on a brand new, never used Fire 7 Alexa ... that's all.

Your tool helped getting rid of the residual apps & reclaimed the limited space. Look forward to see what V1.4 can and will do.

[Fire General] DB126:
You'll have to reload FireOS and start over. Once disabled (apps are not actually uninstalled) there is no method of reenabling short of a full OS reinstall.
[Fire General] Ivorin:
This makes me wonder if "pm hide" would actually work on 5.4.0.0. If it does, it could have the advantage over "adb uninstall" of being able to easily undo it without (any?) drawbacks.

Has anyone tried this?

PM hide, when available, has a short half life on FireOS v4/5 as apps tend to reenable themselves over time.

Tool can’t find my Fire

I have a 7th gen Kindle Fire running 5.4.0.1. I'd had it jailbroken before but an OTA update got through and broke it, so I factory reset it. Unfortunately, 5.4.0.1 is the lowest firmware I can get, now.

I did put my Fire in Developer mode and then enabled ADB.

I'm trying to use this tool to install the Google Play Store. I successfully installed ADB and Fastboot on my computer, but when I try to install the Play Store, it says

"error: no devices/emulators found

adb: failed to get feature set; error: no devices/emulators found"

I tried going to Device Manager (Windows 10) and manually installing drivers, but it says the best drivers for my device are already installed and refuses any attempt to install other drivers. (I ran the drivers.exe file included in the zip and it installed successfully.) Could you point me in the right direction as to what I should try next?
[Fire General] Rortiz2:
Have you disabled checking the drivers signature? If you have done this, try to connect the fire to the computer and in the device manager, uninstall the driver and use the option of the tool to install the drivers. If it does not work, download RootJunky Supertool and use the option to install the drivers.
[Fire General] SapphireSakura:
I have, by going into my system settings into security, into that diagnostic screen and disabled signature checks. I tried uninstalling the driver on device manager as you said, then running the driver installation again. It said the drivers were already installed but I proceeded anyways. Still, when I go to install the Google Play Store, it says it can’t detect my device.

Update: I uninstalled it again from windows and reinstalled and now it seems to be working. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
