Shirt from video: store.christitus.com/sudo-apt-purge-y-2020-Short-Sleeve-T-Shirt-p205582378 - Store is still in beta, but I wanted something high end so it isn't the same teespring crap everyone else on RUclips is selling. Everything is fulfilled on demand, so it does take a bit for shipping about a month because of the virus, but a great quality shirt. I will say it runs a bit small, so if you are on the cusp between sizes, go a bit larger.
Please make a video about installing arch Linux with lots kernel and mate desktop
And how you customized it to be look like unity desktop
I am Ubuntu user and I want to switch to arch because hardware driver and other things
Brilliant short tutorial on clearing out the Amazon "stuff" from Fire Tablets. Thanks Chris.
It took me forever to get rid of a lot of stuff manually, but I gave up on removing the start screen ads. This is simple and fairly direct. Thanks.
@@honeysuckle3232 hmm, other than being cumbersome, I can't find a reason!
@@canobenitez Amazon bankrupted my dad's small business which caused my mom to leave him and I.
Nice tutorial Chris. I dumped my Fire tablet in a draw a few months back because it was totally unusable (ads/slow). This sorted that now, thanks! keep up the good work :-)
Thanks Chris, I've been waiting for this one, and it did not disappoint!
tim kim lol
BEST 7 MINUTES I SPENT TODAY THANK YOU THANK YOU! now im off to "fix" my tablet
Thank you so much for the tutorial! My Fire 7 5th gen feels a lot snappier now.
This just saved me lots of troubles, thanks!
Hey, thank you for a brilliant explainer/demo
Brilliant - tablet looks and works much better - thanks for a great video.
Thanks buddy, brilliant tutorial - sorted me right out!
Good Job Chris!. Also i saw minecraft's icon in the thumbnail :P
Excellent video, thanks for the info
Thank you this worked so well
super grateful for the vid, i love my fire now
2:50 The fastest path to becoming a developer. Lol.
Lol ye
Oh yes, I'll be doing this. Great tips.
Congrats on 200k 😊
Great first impression
YAYY!! I did it!! Thank You!!
Hi Cris, I tried the last version of the tool (8.0) on my 7th generation HD7 and it crashed.
So I installed version 7.3 that worked fine.
BUT, it removed the keyboard. So I needed to reset it back to factory, do a partial debloat, installed the Nova launcher, then the Swiftkey keyboard and finally go to a full Amazon Debloat.
This way it worked, but I constantly get a parental warning that I was not able to remove.
Do you have a tip on how to avoid having that parental message removed?
Thanks a lot
Hi Chris, after the update which came recently I attempted this process but it does not work could you have a look? With the new Amazon updates ?
amazing !~thanks for sharing
I did this just now. The new amazon app used seemed to make it even easier and took some steps out. Ex. The ads, it disabled automatically to my kindle (I think..from what prompts said) and didn't make me do kindle steps. Also be aware app prints are a little different but easy to if and very clear on what you are selecting, doing as well as undoing anything you did. Affect, opened a few app, silk etc, seemed normal. Did have to reload amazon for minecraft as that is where I got it. Easy fix with the app! Kindle seems to be moving a bit quicker
How does this affect getting security updates from amazon?
I have a Fire HD8 from 2018 and it was so extremely slow and irritating, especially when I am used to my Note9 and gaming pc. I never used it, so I ended up loading LineageOS on it via the method where you short a pin inside to ground. It was a bit of a pain to do, but now that I have a stable build of LineageOS on it, it is actually usable. It's really amazing how much difference a change in software can make. I'm thinking of putting it on my coffee table as a Phillips Hue slash Chromecast device.
Thanks it worked like a charm that last that was a little hard but not that bad the lock screen ad remover still don't think I got it but I think I did I have a new version of fire 10 thanks a lot help a lot
Hi Chris,
Thanks very much for sharing! However, I have a strange issue with my Amazon 7 Fire: I cannot access my bank account through it because when I scan the "QR code" from my bank on-line, it appears deformed (actually, vertically stretched)! Strangely, when I use the camera for other purposes the image is perfectly regular. I checked with my bank's HelpDesk and they told me to empty the cache, remove and reinstall the banking app, which I did. But still, the same problem! Any suggestion, please? Tks,
Luigi
Would be good to have seen the post amazon screen and use case.
For example does the show mode still work I have on pre 2020 fire tablets ?
I'd still like to use to talk to the fire while in the dock and to steer devices connected to alexa.
And of cause the amazon photo frame ...
Hi Chris, great video as always. Fantastic. Quick question. If you use this toolbox, does the Amazon Tablet still update the software automatically to keep it up to date or do you need to run the toolbox everytime it updates the OS? Thank you.
You can, and definitely should, disable OTA updates with Firebox. Amazon loves to break/block firebox's patches with their updates. If you've updated at all since getting your Fire, you're SOL.
Can you use the toolkit to only remove 'some' Amazon stuff (like start screen ads) and then add the Play Store and a hand full of Google apps to the Amazon OS tablet? I'm wondering if the tablet can kinda run as a hybrid running Amazon OS and all the Amazon apps, as well as a handful of Google apps. Do tell....
5:14 - Can I just say that I love that he referred to that as the little pancakes? My whole life I've only ever heard it called the burger button, but now I'm always referring to it as the pancakes!
I guess this video will bring you the 200.000th subscriber cause it should get a lot of attention.
Thanks
Thanks for the video Sir! Would there be a way to do all this using a Mac? Unfortunately in this case, thats the only computer I have.
Hey was curious will this erase all apps on the tablet or just the Amazon stuff? Thank u
I have tried this but the custom launcher won't stay like it used to.
This may be redundant, but would it be possible to have the "Amazon Kindle" app to be functional (reading books) or no, considering all of this debloating and removing lockscreen ads? It sounds like either you have Amazon on your Kindle or not at all? Also, I am wondering, if you use Novo Launcher; is there a way to keep it running? What I mean is when I press that center button (like the home button), it goes back to the default kindle app display.
Hello, Chris, if i do this, do i still have to add google to my fire HD10
Any plans on taking a look on the pinebook pro Chris? :)
Oh yeah, I love some cheap laptops. I'm still tinkering with the Pinephone and hoping to get a video done on that for next month.
Thanks for the help. It is looking real nice so far after do all this stuff. I got spooked when my Prime Video app disappeared as I am Prime subscriber and I couldn't get it back in Google Store but when I went to the Amazon Prime Video on Chrome, it let me enable it back and it worked. I don't see Netflix in the google store but I don't have Netflix subscription anymore.... Update: I got free trial Netflix subscription and it initially said I am unable to get the Netflix app. It says "My device isn't compatible." but I found the way to get it back with hybrid app in the toolbox so I got netflix back.
Great video I did everything you recommend your video. The Nova Launcher says it is not set as default. when I click on to set it as default it takes me to the settings screen. how do I make it the default launcher?
First of all, thanks for this video.
I am no longer able to launch the home screen when the Amazon Fire Launcher is disabled. How do I set the home-screen launcher to the Android version that you have? Thanks again.
Hi I’m super new to all of this just wondering if I can do this without a desktop? I only have my daughters fire 8 tablet. Thanks so much
Thanks for the video and can confirm worked perfectly on my Fite HD 10 2019 model. The only thing is I still want to use the Amazon store app as well the Amazon prime and music. Are you able to help? Thanks
you can download them from playstore
Hello..I turned on developer tools and turned on USB debugging. I noticed that "verify apps over USB" got turned on as well. When I scrolled down I noticed that "disable Bluetooth a2dp hardware offload" was also turned on. Just wanted to verify because when I was moving the USB cable over the tablet, noticed that something showed on the window then disappeared. Cable may have hit the tablet and turned on one of the settings. Can you please advise before I proceed. Just got this 2020 Fire HD 10 earlier this week. It wasn't on the compatibility list for the V9 Toolbox yet.Thanks
Sir I met you in my dream last night I was appearing some sort of IT exam and you were the interviewer You asked the question "what are the different types of Arch Linux" I lost my breath seeing you the Guru of me I was so excited that instead of your questions I was appreciating you and your work and guidance. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the help. Now I believe the removal of the screen ads are made easier with the new tool box, I did not have do much because it was already there. Or did I do a mistake?! Furthermore, I was not able to use the scrcpy, my computer (wind10) did not accept or work with it... :-/ had to do it directly on the tablet.
Hi. Very new to all this. Can this be doing using my macbook?
Hey Chris, I've been trying this for the last hour on my Fire 7 (7th Ed). The Toolbox software is "seeing" the tablet when I click on "View ADB Status" but I'm NOT getting the dialog box to authorize the tablet. What am I doing wrong?
Tutorial was easy to follow and seemed to all go well. Not sure what I did wrong but I get to the end and then I can't install any apps from the playstore. If anyone has any ideas please share!
Thanks for this, Chris! I was previously attempting to follow a couple full root and flash tutorials for my Fire HD8 2018, with little success. This tool made it idiot-proof and now my daughter has a solid little game and netflix tablet without all the Amazon junk (save for Prime Video).
Thank you, Chris. Yes, XDA is great. Can you use Linux to do something like this?
You can manually select the packages using ADB, see the debloat android video, but this application just does everything for you and why I showed it. The dev did say he will include Linux functionality in the future.
It wouldn't be difficult to make a Linux UI for it. I might have a go at it.
@@ChrisTitusTech I would like to see a linux version. Thanks again for great content
Thank you. Very easy to follow. My Fire 7 is much much faster now.
Fire Toolbox does not remove any apps from the Kindle tablet, it only hides them, which is what the toolbox calls it in version 12. I tried with version 7.3 also and the apps are still there, just disabled, so there are 20 or so apps residing in internal memory doing nothing. I could not even load Google services because there was not enough memory and it would not load on SD card.
Great one, thanks 👍🏻
Will I still be able to have FreeTime working for my kids after that?
Did it take a long time for you to install play services
@@Tata.._Tata just use the tool made by XDA and it's just a button click to install play services
Thank you :)
Need to see if I can get this to work for my 5th gen Fire 7 tablet.
I got it for one of the kiddos to use in the car.
Honestly all it needs to be able to do is connect to BT headphones and run a media player.
I received ines yesterday the main screen closes, the volume goes in and out I returned mines for a exchange hopefully it was just a defect not good so far
I really appreciate that you made a video about debloating Fire Tables, but it would have been great to see you actually doing the debloating process, not just saying where to click. Thanks anyways. You are awesome.
Is this better than rooting it? What would be the best approach to get the absolute most out of the kindle tablet?
old video but i was wondering if this process improves battery performance at all
is the ad removal for the lock screen only?
I use on of the tablet now am a beast on my video game 🇯🇲🔥
i'm having problems downloading apps from google play after following these steps. I've cleared cache and data but nothing. Any suggestions on troubleshooting? Error Code: -505
Hi Chris, sounds impressive but would this work with Fire HD 10 tablet 11th generation (2021 release)? I'm thinking of making use of the blasck friday offer.
maybe i missed it. Can you also remove the amazon ads with this? Help, mine will be arriving today! Thanks
Will this process to debloat Amazon Fire tablets apply to a Fire 7 5th gen released late 2015? I'd like to try and squeeze a little more life out of it, if possible. Thanks.
Sir can you please tell how you make your desktop look so cool. i am manjaro user and i want to make my desktop just like your
Fire Toolbox is now at version 14.1. Plans to update this video accordingly?
Personally I would keep at least the Amazon app store (I bought stuff there), are there any dependencies I need to keep for the store?
Before my Fiance bricks the tablet I modded for her using this step by step. Is it safe for her to install the amazon system update on her tablet? Even if I have to disable everything again and do the whole process again. Just let me know if it's ok to do a system update because she still uses some of the amazon built-in apps
They worked!
When I do the disable everything Amazon one of those apps I don't remember what it was It triggers my parental controls for some reason
Edit:I went through all the apps one by one and for some reason shop Amazon is activating my parental controls
I did it Amazon fire tools kit 8.2 in Fire 7 kids version. But cannot install kindle app from Google store. It always ends up with error message. I hid parental control with the tool kit as well but no luck. Please advise. Thanks.
Do they have any tracking on when you buy a subsidized tablet and cut the ads? Any breach of contract concerns? How does this compare to running LineageOS?
Doesn't seem like it. I think Amazon still thinks that it is sending you ads. The developer just made a disclaimer in legal jargon that you break your contract with Amazon with the ads. I have an ad support Fire and have been running the ad blocker for a few months now. I would assume Amazon doesn't care about the small percentage of nerds like us disabling their ads. They are already making boatloads of money from all the millions of users they are forcing ads down their throats.
Can you add more ram using modify system settings?
Does this work for a child's Google account and with family link? Once I sign in it checks for updates and then says something went wrong.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Since this isnt done with root, basically its just hiding all the amazon crap. Not actually uninstalling it. Is it stopping any of the processes? I actually used the toolbox when I saw it on your page. Obviously its a cleaner look, but not sure there is an actual performance benefit
Is there a way to DJ this straight from the fire tablet so you don’t need to have a computer or laptop?
can you do this for the fire 5th generation as i have that model
Thanks Chris....but I got my Google play store stuck at checking for updates....then something went wrong...then back to the same...anyone with the same issue and some kind of solution? thx
Will this work if you do not have a windows pc but instead have a chromebook
Hi great tutorial, does it void your warranty if you do so? Will amazon know what you've done if you have to send it back for repair or so? Thx for reply
This is my same question? And also, what if you still want access to some of the Amazon games and books
Any tools for moto E6s ? I want to remove the bloatware on it to make it faster
Hello I have a windows 7 pc and and when trying to run FTB it says "No device was detected. Please plug in a fire tablet"
There is no issues with usb port or cable, I tried installing universal ADB drivers from clockwordmod and few other sites, still it doesn't detects.
Any help for installing proper adb drivers for fire tab hd 10 2019 will be really appreciated.
Where do I find the toolbox?
For some reason I can't get rid of the Amazon search bar including the 3 sub categories from you, home and library. Also the Amazon app icons keep reappearing on my homescreen. How can I fix this please
I've looked all over my Amazon Fire HD 8 and can't find any of the whole "Automate" and "Run at System Startup" that's mentioned at 4:47
thank you sir
Can I add other languages to the device, such as Arabic?
can you get any other launchers for it or is it only nova?
The software for toolbox doesn't seem to be available.
Also the enable ADB is not there in Developer options.
Have Amazon stopped this?
So this will disable the amazon apps, but it does not remove them to free up the storage space? Is there another video or process I am missing for this step?
Thank you sir I hated the Amazon stuff on my fire hd 7 (2014) it was annoying
My device not picking up on tool box i enabled devoloper options even i changed the tool box version but still same problem my tablet not showing
I really want to do this and there was a time when i was really good at doing this kind of thing. Now age has worn my brain cells down and I am not sure I fully trust myself to do it. I would like to use my Fire but I just don't because it's like watching a nonstop commercial.
Wow! I'm going to try this! Ty❤
i have a question i can't open amazon site on any application . re install automate everything is opening. amazon site is blocked form opening on any application/app . i would like to just go and open when i want to check on orders and buy . can't even open with google ...
My tablet won't let the USB connect from the laptop to the tablet. Is there something I need to do to "fix" that (I have the 10HD 9th Generation tablet)
2 Questions: 1. Can this be run on an Amazon Fire Stick? 2. Can you then also run some other Android app at startup after the ad blocker?
Great vid.Puzzled by one thing, the automate app! Does this come in the toolbox or does it have to be pre installed? A link to the add would be great.
If you follow the instructions it should lead you where it downloads onto your tablet.
