Hey Guys as soon as i heard that Amazon was offering a device with ads for a lower price to amazon prime member i was pumped and ready to remove those ads as soon as i got the device in hand.
well Amazon has made it really easy for us in many ways.
You can just flash one file that i have put together to remove the ads and all of the amazon apps in one shot.
Requirements
Moto G 4th gen tested on the XT1625 and XT1644
Motorola Drivers installed
Motorola program RSDlite 6.2.4 or you can use this RSD-Flash Script for Mac or Linux
The Files and remove-amazon-bloat.xml file i created HERE
Steps
1. Boot device into bootloader / fastboot mode by powering down then holding volume down and power until it boots
2. Open RSDlite 6.2.4 and select the remove-amazon-bloat.xml
3. press START and wait for device to reboot thats it once rebooted your amazon apps and lock screen ads are gone.
NOTE If you are having problems with RSDlite and windows 10 use this XT1625-Amazon-Bloat-Ads-Remover-Without-RSDLITE
Also works on Mac and Linux now.
Extra Credit
If you have already unlocked your bootloader on your Moto G 4th gen you can do this same process with one simple command from fastboot mode.
