Amazon goes all-in on Vega OS for Fire TV devices (Android based Fire OS media streamer’s days are numbered)

Amazon has released two new Fire TV Sticks in the past two years… and both have shipped with a Linux-based operating system called Vega OS rather than the Android-based Fire OS that Amazon had been using since the company released the first Fire TV Stick more than a decade ago.

While Amazon says the Fire TV Stick 4K Select (2025) and Fire TV HD (2026) are small, cost-effective devices that […]

Znalazłem w szafie stary tablet Amazon Fire HD 8 - ma wieki, nawet działa, tylko że operuje na fatalnym i ograniczonym Fire OS.

Poszukałem pobieżnie porad i widzę, że od 8 generacji ludzie przerzucają je na Lineage OS - tylko ja mam w ręku 7 generację. Chciałbym go przerzucić na działający OS, ale nie chcę zrobić z niego cegły, a sam nie bardzo się znam - czy polecacie jakieś konwersje, czy lepiej nie próbować? Czy Lineage może zadziałać?

Amazon is escalating its war on Fire TV apps used for piracy. Last year it started blocking sideloaded apps that had been blacklisted from launching. Now you can't even install those apps on Fire TV devices in the first place. https://www.aftvnews.com/fire-tvs-now-block-piracy-apps-on-installation-instead-of-at-launch/ #AmazonFireTV #FireOS #FireTV #Piracy #MediaStreamers

Well it was fun while it lasted. Last month xda-developers forum members Pro-me3us unveiled a method for gaining system user privileges on Fire OS devices, giving users more control over the software that runs on their Amazon Fire TV devices and Amazon Fire tablets. Among other things, it allowed users to replace the default home screen and disable certain Amazon apps and services.

Fire Toolbox 42 makes Amazon Fire tablets more like Android tablets by disabling & replacing Amazon apps

Amazon’s Fire Tablets are some of the cheapest tablets worth buying, especially if you can get one when it’s on sale. But part of the reason Amazon’s tablets are priced so competitively is because they ship with a custom version of Android called Fire OS that’s tightly integrated with Amazon’s app, eBook, music, and video services rather than Google’s.

While that tradeoff is fine for some […]

Fire OS hack lets you install custom launchers on Fire TV and tablet devices, disable OTA updates, and install blocked apps

Amazon’s Fire TV and Fire Tablet devices run a modified version of Android called Fire OS that allows you to stream music and video from Amazon, Netflix, and a wide range of other services. You can download and install third-party apps from the Amazon Appstore, and while Amazon doesn’t publicize this fact, it’s also possible to sideload third-party apps.

https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/debloating-fire-tablet-08-29-25/

I read about the Fire Toolbox utility for “debloating” and customizing Amazon Fire Tablets. That inspired me to buy a cheap ($35-40) Fiire 11 tablet from 2021 on Woot back in April or May. I finally got around to using it. Unfortunately, because of updates, some of the Toolbox’s utilities like setting a custom launcher do not work reliably. But I managed to remove a decent amount of Amazon bloat and telemetry. My goal is to set it up as a device for reading articles from my Miniflux instance as an alternative to my phone. Here are my initial key steps:

• Used Fire Toolbox to sideload F-Droid Basic
• Installed Iron Fox (web browser), Markor (markdown editor), Frigolio (Wallabag client), KDE Connect, and Syncthing
• I configured Iron Fox to my liking and imported the uBlock Origin rules I use on my phone
• I logged into Miniflux on Iron Fox (synced my clipboard with KDE Connect to get my passwords
• I synced my Markor directory from my phone to my Fire so I could save links from my browser for my newsletter workflow
• Connected Frigolio to my Wallabag server by sharing clipboard with API key and login information from my computer via KDE Connect

I gave everything a test run in the morning and it worked well. Fire tablets have low-end specs, but Iron Fox felt about as snappy on the tablet as it does on my phone (Google Pixel 6a running GrapheneOS). One potential annoyance is that when I woke my tablet up (I had set it up last night), I was presented with a screen trying to get me to log into an Amazon account. I was prompted to finally set this up because I was being tempted by a $250 sale on Google Pixel Tablets (which are supported by GrapheneOS), but if the Fire works well for my limited Miniflux purpose, I think I will opt to save the $250.

Report: Amazon could launch a high-end Android tablet in 2026, eventually ditching Fire OS

Amazon has been selling tablets with a forked version of Android called Fire OS since 2011. The current lineup includes a mix of budget and mid-range devices with starting prices between $60 and $230.

But according to Reuters Amazon could launch something different next year: a premium tablet that sells for around $400 and ships with Android rather than Fire OS.

While it’s still unclear if […]

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2024) tablets bring memory and camera updates (and AI features)

Amazon’s newest Fire HD 8 tablet for 2024 is… a lot like the company’s 2022 model of this budget tablet. It’s the same size and shape, has the same display, and has the same processor. But the good news is that it also has the same low price tag… and does bring a couple of significant updates.

The new Amazon Fire HD 8 has 50% more RAM than its predecessor, and a slightly better rear […]

Amazon is blocking sideloading of apps on at least some Fire tablets, but according to AFTVnews it's most likely a mistake that should be corrected soon. https://www.aftvnews.com/amazon-fire-tablets-mistakenly-block-sideloading-apps/
