Feel free to discuss anything (tips/tricks/hacks) about the fire tablets here… The added benefit is these can replace an Alexa device. Since I used adbLink to disable the screen from shutting off, I do not see the lock screen. It could be annoying and I hate amazon as a company for this BS. What this means is there are adds at the lock-screen. Other Notes: These are ad supported tablets. (you need to be good with a soldering iron!) I used double faced tape to hold the tablet up.
These aren’t the exact cables I used, but these cables have magnetic tips that make it much better for picking up and returning to the stand (bonus is the led helps you find the plug in the dark) - Linkįor my wall mount tablet I used this plug LINK soldered to a 22awg wire fished down the wall to a plug in the basement. Battery life is tremendous even though I modded them to always keep the screen on (no signs of image retention either). I’ve been using these with great success as dedicated HR tablets! I have the HD10 wall mounted in my kitchen and have two HD8s that sit on stands in other rooms. Please share anything from photos to configurations. Feel free to discuss anything regarding the fire tablets or comparable devices. Also, if your tablet has a “newer preloader-version” such as the 7th generation devices, then you may also need to open the device and use something conductive (such as a paperclip or tweezers).This thread was originally started as a PSA for the Prime Day sale for the Fire tablets. To complete this unlock and root method though, you will need a Linux installation or live-system and a micro USB cable.
From answering questions to testing the process, we often see great things come from these types of collaborations. In the guide linked below, XDA Senior Member k4y0z thanks a handful of people for helping along with this process. A couple of months ago the Amazon Fire HD 8 had been unlocked and rooted and now the same thing is possible on both the 5th generation and 7th generation of the Amazon Fire 7 tablets. This also doesn’t stop our enthusiast user base from hacking into these devices either. Still, this limitation hasn’t stopped the Amazon Fire tablet series from becoming huge sellers for the company. Unlike some OEMs out there, Amazon isn’t a fan of letting their owners unlock the bootloader of their devices.
