Is it normal for me to always have to pick "always" upon rebooting my Fire Stick 4K when the boot sequence gets to the point of loading my custom launcher? Or is LM (LMU 1.0.7) supposed to boot straight into my custom launcher?
Thank you in advance...
Is there a way to delete the cache for the default launcher? I dont have root. There is over 900mb of data inside that thing.
Thank you in advance,
Jason.
FireTV gen 1 rooted on FireOS 5. I need to enable some app accessibility services but haven't been successful in my attempts.
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance,
Jason.
This is probably a dumb question, but what would be the steps to manually flash the monthly OTA's with this tool and re-root? This tool seems like it may streamline the process...
Thanks in advance.
Any launchers with widget support?
Ive got Nova, but since Ive went from FireOS 3 to 5, I can't add new widgets. Im rooted btw. Don't want the Android TV launcher...just a simple launcher with widget support.
Thanks in advance!
I've been on rbox's pre-rooted OS5 roms and just updated to 5.2.4.1_r2....but have a problem.
Is there some new trick to get my unlocked FTV (v1) to boot into Nova launcher and have the home button launch Nova? All I can get from the home button is the stock Amazon launcher.
I have xposed and...
I have a rooted FTV1, latest rbox firmware (Fire OS 5), xposed, rbox mods, and Nova Launcher. Ever since upgrading from Fore OS 3, I cannot add widgets from 'HD Widgets' or change wallpaper.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jason.
I tried it on the Amazon Fire TV. The app loaded and functioned, just couldnt load a webpage with it. After typing in a web address and pressing enter, it would just return to the app homepage.
Any suggestions?
Just checking to see if anyone else has this working and anymore progress? I have a rooted FTV1 with Nova. Ive never used the Android TV launcher. Benefits? What works with this setup and what doesnt work? Does the Play store stay usable and autoupdate apps? Do all the settings from the...
Will Wanam's XtouchWiz module or Firefds Kit work with v2?
XTouchWiz - http://repo.xposed.info/module/ma.wanam.xtouchwiz
Firefds Kit - http://repo.xposed.info/module/sb.firefds.firefdskit
Anybody have any idea if the xposed module, Firefds Kit (based off of xtouchwiz) will work on this ROM?

Thanks in advance...
You can use Terminal Shortcut for that i think. Just create the am kill-all command. You will just open the app and then click the command. Have to be rooted for it to work tho im pretty sure...
If you're like me, Kodi gets hung-up sometimes. If you sideload 'Terminal Shortcut Pro' from the play store, you can create a shortcut icon on the home screen using Nova Launcher (and other launchers I presume) to force-stop Kodi and restart it with one click. You can also use the app to...
Yea, not sure if something is wrong with root, but su works for me (just not the gui), but can't copy/move files to system/priv-app even when changing permissions. Seems something is not exactly right...
Sent from my SM-G930V using XDA-Developers mobile app
I tried the method in the aftvnews guide (and did it step by step just as instructed) and also tried Root Explorer on the FTV...no go. The Phonesky folder was created, but the Phonesky.apk will not copy to that directory. I even changed the directory to writeable in Root Explorer.
Any ideas...?
Can I update twrp like below?
adb push C:\bueller-twrp-test8.img /sdcard/
dd if=/data/media/0/bueller-twrp-test8.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
Ive upgraded fo Fire OS5 and fully unlocked, but twrp from the OP is unusable because I have a 720p display.
Just for clarification, how do I flash back to cwm once I've updated to twrp and updated to OS5? I got the blurry screen when I flashed twrp, so I updated to OS5 from twrp using the onscreen ip that I could barely read:
adb connect <ip>
adb shell
su
recovery...
What is the link to the apk if we bought through the playstore?
Can we get access to the amazon version so we can get updates like the previous poster said?
Thanks.
How do I get the updated version 1.2. I bought Youmap from the Play Store, which currently has version 2838916, July-31-2015. Amazon has version 1.2 and the trial apk on this thread is version 1.1.
Thanks you!
I had to add a passwords.xml file to my userdata folder. Create it in Notepad and there doesnt have to be anything inside the file, kodi just needed it there for me for some reason.
Ok. I can screen mirror with the official chromecast app from my phone or from chrome on my laptop to my Fire TV's....occasionally. Sometimes it works, but most times it doesn't. But when I disconnect from screen mirroring, so I can use a different app to chromecast to my Fire TV, no...
Yes, Im using my phone as the sender and I lose the ability to connect. It works great when it works, it just stops working after a while until I reboot everything.
Does the paid version work better than the trial apk? I can cast sometimes to my FireTV, but its flakey. I lose the ability to connect. I have to reboot everything including the router, then it'll work for a little while and then not. Ideas?
Thanks in advance
Ok thanks. Yes, I have root and I dont use wifi with FTV. Im not using samba...but that would make sense. Guess we're outa luck with ES and ftp...no biggie. I like the FTP Server Ultimate setup tho.
I thought I tried the Lan tab. Will go back and check...
In the meantime, I installed 'Ftp Server Ultimate' onto my FTV from the Play Store and set it up to start the ftp server at boot and can connect to extUsb and internal. Works really well.
Another note, if u install AndFTP from the Play...
without having to go into Amazon settings and eject it. I've tried a few apps that I had used on my phone, but they don't work on the FTV.
Thanks in advance if someone has figured it out,
Jason.
