I am however at grrcon. Keeping busy with work. Do we have a firmware file for 5.x yet? I've been pretty busy with my new job lately. ^.^;

1st-gen Fire TV hasn't received final Fire OS 5, only a developer preview. The developer preview file version 51.5.3.0_user_530042950 is here. There is one update to that developer preview, but I haven't received it yet. I'll post it at aftvnews.com/software when I get it.

You could compress it with 7zip first.

But usefull would be a Source-Code-File like "firetv_src_51.1.6.3_user_516012020.tar.bz2" and not the bin file like "update-kindle-montoya-54.5.3.2_user_532008220.bin". Is that right?
Greetings by Idijt
Is this project binned? Is there any work still happening on this? Thanks!
What's wrong with you?So as i assume there is nothing to install/try or develop (no commit's in githab - only uploaded a year ago rom) .
So i assume that this project is just a some trick to get what ? New row in CV ?

Hey,
i've got one question for the installation:
you use the recovery as boot partition (because you dont want to mess with the actual boot partition where the bootmenu is).
is there a reason we cant use rbox's bootmenu, add another entry "usb boot" which will boot from /system/boot/usbboot.img ?
Or is the only reason that this just hasnt been added by rbox so we have to use another way?
I think this would be the most brick safe version and shouldnt be a big problem for rbox to implement....

[edit]
i'm really looking forward to this

I've been up for entirely too long. But I'm almost done with a very basic installer application. After a bit of testing on my end, I'll send links out to the survey takers for testing. The initial version will be a giant apk with what ever the latest nightly is, fully included in the app. It will overwrite your recovery partition which you can always reflash until I get to the multiboot manager I'm also working on.
