Hi, did you figure this out? I have a 2017 HD10 on Lineage 12 as well and plan to give it to a relative. I think stock would be better for them. thxMy Fire HD 10 (2017) is rooted and running Lineage 12.1. I am planning to sell it and would actually like to revert to stock (the standard Fire OS install) to make that process easier. Can anyone recommend an easy way to do this?

I guess it is easier to upgrade your relative to make him or her more compatible with LineageOS.Hi, did you figure this out? I have a 2017 HD10 on Lineage 12 as well and plan to give it to a relative. I think stock would be better for them. thx

I actually never did figure it out -- and ended up selling it as-is. I got tired of making things work with the Fire HD and got a more mainstream tablet instead.

Perhaps I will just put mine on eBay where people might actually pay more for a rooted and TWRP'd Fire Tablet than a stock one, at least that's my hope.
Fire OS 5.3.1.0 was the last version to be rootable,

You don't really have much option. Only FAT32 is practical. And you cannot store any file over 4GB. All the recent FireHDs do not support exFAT, NTFS.hey guys i have the fire hd 10 9th gen, whats the best format to use for the sd card as portable storage?
Therein lies the rub. Apps disabled via "pm uninstall -k --user 0 ..." and related varients remain on the device and cause untold headaches when trying to reenable / sideload. This is usually followed by a series of additional hacks that may or may not work and generally lead to further convolution....The apps aren't even installed to begin with, they were removed by the debloater.
The first one is the one you'd want to follow. Make sure to read it the instructions at least twice before beginning. The second one is not for the HD 10 2017, but for the HD 8 2018. Two completely different beasts.Hey guys, I hope this hasn't been asked a million times but I was wondering if this method of rooting the fire 10 with TWRP and Magisk is the best: https://xdaforums.com/hd8-hd10/orig-development/unlock-fire-hd-10-2017-suez-t3913639 also I was wondering if this HD8 tut would work with my HD10 https://xdaforums.com/hd8-hd10/general/tut-root-hd82018-via-magisk-t3906554
I have already rooted my tablet using a method involving ADB and Kingoroot(which gave me SuperSU) that I found here on XDA but I miss having a custom recovery like I have on my phone, same can be said for Magisk Manager. I want to know if you guys would recommend the above method linked. Admittedly I don't have a Linux but is it true I could install Linux on a USB and use it on Windows PC? Any advice would be massively appreciated! I know there isn't much difference between Magisk and SuperSU but if it can be done I wouldn't hesitate to reset my tablet and re root.
My Fire OS is 5.6.1.0 FYI. Sorry for the long post!
Spot on. This is not a generic Android ROM/device. It is an highly customized Amazon ecosystem portal that happens to look like a traditional tablet and uses some flavor of Android as a base OS. If their gizmos were hexagonal and ran Linux we wouldn't be having this conversation.Even a proper uninstall can cause issues. For example just uninstalling the parental apps without disabling the administrator, will cause headaches like the formentioned. From my experience, if you uninstall them, without clearing it's other settings or configs, it will disable security features one by one and eventually will just have to reflash. Amazon has a lot of apps setup in configs that don't normally exist. Finding those configs is not easy
