Never mind everybody....I figured it out.

Never mind everybody.... I figured it out.

I am trying to get this to work on an Amazon FireStick 4k. The Fire Stick does not have a settings panel for the Notification Access. Is there an adb command that can grant this access? If so could you supply me the command to grant this access ? An example would be great! Thanks.

Many thanks for the response. I actually tried that exact same command and the error was "too many arguments". I also tried installing Musixmatch with "install -g" .....which is supposed to grant all permission upon installation....it automatically granted the "draw over other apps" permission ...

I am trying to get the floating lyrics function of Musixmatch to work on my Fire Stick 4k ( not rooted). The app requests to draw over other apps....which I granted with SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission with adb. It also needs Notification Access to find out what song is being listened to ( in...

Does anyone know where I can get the image for 6.2.5.8 for the 4k Mantis? Thanks.

I have a Fire Stick version 6.2.5.8 ( have been blocking updates for a while). My questions are : If I update to the most recent version of the Fire Stick OS, will I lose any of my customizations/modifications ( Launcher Hijack, changing multiple things with ADB ,etc)? Also, does anyone have a...

Sorry about that. I was considering this a 'rooting' thread rather than just a 'mtk-su' thread, I guess... and I thought this the proper place to ask the sort of questions that I was asking.

So, Am I better off leaving well enough alone as far as the Amazon apps are concerned? I went through and 'pm hid' a bunch of Amazon apps a while back before root was achieved on the Fire HD 8's. Everything is working pretty good now and I don't want to mess anything up and have to start from...

Trying to use this tool on my newly rooted FireHD 8. Not having any success. The computer says can't find file specified, then comes up and says no device was found. Adb working OK from command prompt. I have a Fire HD 8 2017 7th gen. The computer has Windows XP service pack 3. Any help would...

Thank you, cybersaga .

I have a question, if anyone knows. Before obtaining root, I used the 'pm hide' method to effectively disable all of the (safe to disable) Amazon apps. As I understand it, to actually uninstall certain Amazon apps, you run the risk of messing up the Fire's OS and rendering it inoperative. I had...

Thank you so much, diplomatic ! I changed permission of libsupol.so and that took care of it! Supersu updated binaries and I changed permissions to 'grant' and I now have root. I previously 'hid' the safe to hide Amazon apps... will I now be able to uninstall the Amazon apps? Thanks again to...

Thanks for responding diplomatic . Yes, I did run 'daemonsu --auto-daemon' from root. Just to be sure, I did everything again, but nothing changed....I had the same results as I described in my previous post. Any suggestions? Is there another way to get permanent root other than the dutchthomas...

Hi, need a little help, here. I have a Fire HD 8 7th gen. I used the Terminal method (no PC) of getting temporary root using r12 version of mtk-su. Every thing OK ,so far (Got the hash mark indicating root). I then used dutchthomas' method of installing Supersu. I used the cp command instead of...
