1st option does not bring the app to the main screen just buried in the managed installed apps folder.

2nd option - a little confused here by what you mean. Somehow install google play and download kodi from there and it shows on the front page with the recent used apps?

3rd option - I think i've had this before but it doesn't add the app to the front page of the normal fire tv gui it uses its own launcher.

2nd option - download an amazon app store app (from some place like Aptoride - you need to adb install it to your fire stick)
This will replace the amazon app store app that the fire tv stick has so if you use it then it might not be worth doing this but it will show all user apps on the home screen

I don't think theres any other way to get apps onto the main screen other than these methods but if someone else knows feel free to say

Freeze on exit

My Device:
Amazon Fire Stick
Rooted: = No
Fire OS: = v5.2.1.1
Kodi Version: = kodi-16.1-Jarvis-armeabi-v7a.apk
Method Used: = Install from zip. = plugin.video.TheITFixer.zip
Apps: = ES FileExplorer Kodi
Method Used: = adb install

Problems:
Kodi freezes on exiting.
I have to unplug the fire stick to get out it.
The ITFixer repos seem to work just fine thus far :good:
Just need to know how to solve the freeze or what version of Kodi is compatible with this setup. :fingers-crossed:

Thanks to the OP for taking the time to create and maintain this. :highfive:

EDIT: Never mind it sorted it's self out :D

    Random repo created by a random user? What could possibly go wrong?

    What on earth are you talking about

    1 - its not a random repo - its a backup of my setup which includes all the best & most common repos and add-ons - install on a fresh version of kodi and you will have pretty much everything setup in a few mins ready to go - saves you adding every repo manually & installing everything yourself

    2 - I'm not a random user - I'm a recognised contributer to xda - I post useful & meaning stuff


    If you choose not to use it or its not something you need just move on please

    My Build Wizard

    This is my custom setup that has all the popular addons and repos and fully tested based on the silencerom skin optimized for the fire stick.

    Recommended clean install of Kodi 15.2

    To install-
    1. Goto file manager under system then add source
    2. Input this URL http://firetvguru.x10.mx/fire then choose done
    3. Choose ok (it will auto fill the name)
    4. Go back to the kodi main screen
    5. Choose System then Addons
    6. Choose install from zip
    7. Choose the fire folder then plugin.program.fire.zip
    8. Go back to the kodi main screen
    9. Choose Program the program addons then choose fire wizard
    10. Choose Fire TV Wizard then Fire TV Builds
    11. Choose Fire TV Build or Fire TV Build Adult Content ( GUI fix is for the skin if it resets )
    12. Wait for it to download and extract then agree with the prompts and force close Kodi
    13. Open Kodi
    14. :D ENJOY!!! :D

    I didn't see your post count, so sorry about that.

    BUT, people need to stop replying "if you don't like it, move along." It's a discussion board after all. EVERYTHING should be checked for validity, not just taken as word of God

    Indeed that's why you should try it before commenting or judging

    I'm all up for discussion but I don't like things like this is better than that or negative comments which aren't constructive eg doesn't work as the user hasn't said why or given any information about errors and so on so it's not a useful comment
