I know this is an old post and partially off topic, but here is how I made this work using Nova Launcher on my 5th Gen rooted Fire tablet using ADB. Install the Google search app then Then; Disable the unified search so it doesn't try to use the stock kindle search widget adb pm disable...

I know this is an older post but I found a way to achieve this 90% of the way. I have tested a lot of methods; apps, tasker tasks, adb input swipes and keyevents, sqlite mods but so far only this nets a consistent and reliable result. I use these devices as Home Automation panels so I gotta...

I have no idea how you knew this but this definitely solve the 'reading stuck' problem for me. Thank you very much I was beating my head over this.

I don't use it in that way I just use it for accessing my current network shares from within applications on the fireTV, that is about all this script is intended for. To be honest I don't even think the way that the script is mounting the shares and in order for it to work would have to be...

FadeFx, your probably following along better than you think its just what I had to do was notably a cheat at best. So when I was trying earlier to execute it as su the service was starting but the SDCard was not being shared out so I had to dig from my local PC via adb to better understand how...

Essentially yes but there is a minor caveat. I was running the script through an an adb shell on the device in the script to work around another problem so my actual command was more like "adb -s emulator-5554 shell "su -c blahblah". The service starts however the share configured at...

FadeFx thanks for the suggestion sorry for the delay I just got back around to this. I have the development version and have been using the "dont overwrite" feature for a while now so I made the change you suggested, well I can still reach the share (which was never actually the issue) but it...

Hey no problems glad I could help get you sorted out, I'll PM you with some more specific information that I think you are after that should get you where you want to be.

To answer your questions; 1. No, this doesn't implement samba which is what would make it seen on your network. The way that I personally achieve this on my firetv is by sideloading and running "Samba FileSharing", that will do exactly what your trying todo there. 2. Until you said that I had...

Sorry I thought I had already replied to this a few days ago but apparently I didnt hit submit or something. Yes, that is exactly what this script is for and for that use case it works very well. Edit: Sorry, I incorrectly answered your question. You can't run or install android applications...

Unfortunately no. ES File Explorer lets you browse network shares but it does not let you mount them and this means that only ES File Explorer can see the contents no other application can see those files and that problem is two fold, not only is that because its not a feature of ES File...

Thank you for that information I am clearly blind and did not come across that but it was probably staring me in the face the entire time. It's ironic you mention the service and Tasker because thats exactly where I started earlier today on this (notably with very little insight into what...

Start Service on boot (wired) I know the Samba Filesharing app supports auto starting the service on wifi but what about wired? I have a fireTV that is always connected via LAN cable and would like to do this, even if its something I have to setup a script in my script manager for (root...

I hacked up a script to mount a single Samba/CIFS share using adb shell directly on the firetv. This can be executed using any script manager (I use Rom Toolbox Pro's scripter) and if configured by your script manager it will in fact execute and mount the share on boot. If you have more than...

Sorry, I cant directly confirm this for Liquid Smooth but like I said if it can be confirmed by the ROM developer that REMOTE SUBMIX support is compiled into the ROM then using mirror enabler _should_ work. I would suggest contacting the developer to see if this is the case. I can confirm that...
