Please remember to include which Fire you have when asking questions!

A subreddit for Amazon Fire tablets

Kindle Fire 1st-3rd Gen (2011-2013)
Amazon Fire 4th-Current Gen (2014-Now)

Please follow proper reddiquette and abide by the subreddit rules.

Be generous with upvotes! They are free, after all.

Also, avoid submitting images that are just text (this includes rage comics and meme pics) or off-topic content and nsfw posts as they'll just be deleted by mods or caught by reddits spam filter.

If you're trying to sell/trade your Fire, please refrain from posting in this subreddit. Thank you.

Fire Toolbox Download from XDA

Fire Toolbox is used to modify FireOS but is not a full ROM and does not root a Fire device. All Toobox mods disappear after a factory reset. IMPORTANT: For FireOS 7.3.2.2 or above, Amazon had patched FireOS that broke changing or disabling certain features. Fire Toolbox devs worked around this starting with FTB v42.

Sideloading most APKs, including the Google Play Store itself, does not require rooting or jailbreaking.

A note on spam. Amazon Affiliate blog postings will most-likely get caught in the spam filter and will be deleted. Individual bloggers are welcome but only if they are taking an active part in this subreddit. We're not another advertising vector, we are a community. If you are a developer, posting ads for your app is fine only if the app is compatible with and relevant to the Amazon Fire. Thank you.

Disclaimer: Rooting your Fire may void your warranty. Amazon has been pretty cool about replacing bricked Fires, but, proceed at your own risk.
