Wondering if anyone has encountered this. I get texts to approve any downloads on my son’s tablet. I get a text, I click a link, I click approve (or otherwise, but so far not necessary).

Last two attempts I’ve clicked the links and it gives me the information page but no approve or deny. I’ve tried restarting everything concerned but no luck.

The apps are paramount plus and bbc iplayer. The phone is an iPhone 16.

Wondering is there another way for me to approve?

I just grabbed a new Kindle Fire HD 8. The only thing I really want from it is reading and being able to highlight it color. It’s not a bad tablet. I was going back and forth between getting this and getting a Lenovo Tab One 8.7” and just loading the Kindle app on it. Anyway, the only thing that really bothers me for some reason is the cutesy search bar on it. I’d love to get rid of it or at least modify it so that it is a regular search bar. I’ve searched online for a while and found nothing and I suspect that there’s nothing I can do about it other than live with it as it is but I figured if any group of people knew of a way to change or eliminate it, it‘d be this group. So, am I stuck with it?

my amazon kindle fire e8(i think the info weared off on the back ) it starts but it gets stuck on the fire logo and when i connect it to my laptop my laptop doesnt recongnise it when its adb mode and in recovery mode it says abunch of stuff about the cache(not good stuff)

i recently was gifted this and have tried registering my amazon account numerous of times but it it seems to get stuck on this page everytime. all the software updates are up to date, wifi has been restarted and re connected to the device. not sure if there’s anything else i could do.

I searched on google about amazon tablet news to see if there's any news about the next tablet and found out that the next tablet might have android os instead of fire os!

I never used android tablets and honestly I think the fire os is great. especially that you can easily use android apps on it.

I'm not feeling anything about this. yet I hope the tablet won't lose it's touch and become just another android tablet.

Hi everyone, I am trying to help out my grandma. She uses the google app to do searches on her Fire tablet, but recently when she uses the google app, for seemingly no reason amazon internet (amazon search engine) will open with a prompt to get virus software (see attached photo). I cannot delete amazon internet, i tried clearing all data for the app as well and nothing is working. Does anyone know of a solution?

I looked around but so far one link I found was a dead link.

I need it for my 7th gen fire so I can download a custom ROM (lineage OS)

amonet-austin-v1.4.1.zip

does anyone have any advice?

Hello, I got a fire HD 8 not too long ago. The fire OS is filled with bloatware and ads, and I came to find out if its possible to root it so that I can install a new OS. I've done some research but all that I get are post from 2-3 years ago saying that it isn't possible. I came to find out if its still isn't possible or not. And if so how???

Is this the best youtube app to use on the fire? Mine keeps opening the Silk browser with scammy "security" links.

Following this tutorial: https://xdaforums.com/t/root-twrp-downgrade-fire-hd7-hd6-ariel.4676003/ I have gotten almost all the way until the end where I got stuck at part 2: Part II - Disabling OTAs + TWRP and part: 3 unlocking the bootloader. Both of which I completed but when I restart to boot loader it just doesn't start start back up. Adb will run the command successfully saying it will restart to bootloader but it only shuts down and come back on. My device isn't necessarily bricked as I can just turn it back on holding the power button. It just refuses to boot into TWRP.

So my kid played his tablet this morning before school, put it down after playing some Roblox. When he switched it back on this afternoon it seemed like it had been factory reset, the user profiles were all gone and it was like it had never been set up.

However, it did have some of his photos, my pin code to unlock it, and the WiFi password saved. I'm at a loss here, the boy is heartbroken and swears blind he just put it down like he does every day. His whole profile, games, apps, data (and my parent/owner profile) is gone.

Potentially more expensive but no more FireOS.

My kids tablet pops up with an add every 15 to 30 seconds and it is totally unprompted. I will just have it open with nothing running and then an add pops up. No matter what I am doing the add pops up. It has made the device unusable. The adds are timed to get an “award”. When the time lapses it just takes me to the AppStore to download it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, i just bought a fire hd 8 from vinted for only 27,50 euros, but i am curious from what year my model is, the picture is from the vinted listing.

Since the Amazon app is so hit or miss regarding whether the remote lock function will work, we began using the curfew settings a couple months ago to help restrict morning and evening usage on our kids' tablets. A week or two back my older son figured out how to hack it and bypass the curfew to use the tablet anyway. Last night I noticed there was an OS update, so I installed it to our kids' tablets. This morning they were completely unable to bypass the curfew anymore on either of their tablets. No idea if it was a fluke or if the new OS update fixed the curfew hack. Does anybody know, or know where I can see release notes/change log?

Am getting stumped here not sure what to do. We just bought a brand new amazon fire hd 10 kids tablet for our kid but can't seem to switch the user profile to the profile we made for him.

It's automatically logged in as me during the setup, that's fine. When it turns on and I'm in, I would drag down from the top to get the settings and hit the button that changes profiles. Once I'm in there I have the option to add new user, or more settings. Hitting the add new user button just brings me to the profiles & family library, but there is no way to add my child's profile to it. When I click on his profile here it just brings me to the amazon kids parent dashboard with no way to actually log this profile into the tablet so my child can start using it. When I hit the more settings button it does the same, brings me to the profiles & family library page.

How am I supposed to log into the child profile so he can actually use the dang tablet that's supposedly made for kids?

i haven’t used this kindle in probably a decade but i really want to see the videos and stuff i have saved on it, it goes to this screen, finishes, then restarts and does this screen again.

My Kindle won't work on the WiFi at my parent's house. I get the message connected but no Internet. Other devices still work on their WiFi. My Kindle was working on their WiFi until last week. My Kindle still connects to the WiFi at my house and at the gym. Any ideas on how to fix this?

This is my phone's kindle app. See how all the books in a series are together? How do i do this on the kindle fire or is it not possible for some reason. The ones i have are indvidual so they are hard to find in a 900+ library. I have group series on but it doesnt make it look like this. Thnx in advance for helping

So I read books through the kindle app on my Fire Tablet and use assistive reader 100% of the time. My favorite voice "Salli" just got an update and it sounded great before and now it sounds low quality and muffled. I'm so frustrated and hope it gets fixed soon. So if anyone here thinks about doing the voice update, DO NOT. I am very regretful and sad about it. 😭

When I am not ordering from Amazon, I watch YouTube videos in one of my Fire tablets at my desk and in my kitchen.

In the last 24 hours, though, my silk browser is telling me that there is malware - and lots of Silk Windows pop open that are scanning for viruses and malware. Could it be that I got a virus - or that malware is on these Fires?

If so, what AV/Malware detection software should I use?

I have a couple of questions.

1st. I have a friend you buys alot of books that I read, but I also have stuff tied to my Amazon account from my old kindle fire, so I was wondering if I could do multiple accounts on one device. (It is ok if I need to constantly switch if necessary) if this is possible please explain.

2nd. How do I get a current manga reading app like mangazone on the kindle fire.

3rd. Im 27 m that enjoys tower defense and action games like pubs. Is there any game recommendations

4th. Any free book recommendations of action adventure, fantasy (especially dragon based (good dragons not being the main villians)), and stuff an adolescente might read

Thanks for all the help.

She went to use it one day and noticed she had be deregistered from her device. She didn't do it and no one else had been on it. I tried to register her back on it and kept getting different error codes. Eventually I called Amazon support and they basically said the device is too old and you can't register it again or something like that. The only thing he could do was give me a discount code and a trade in credit. I don't really get why she can't register it again regardless of the age, sure the technology is older but that shouldn't really matter. She really only wants to use it to read and play games on. Is there anything I can do to get her back into the device with her account information so she can get back all the ebooks she already has on her account? Or is a goner and I should just buy her a new one?

Also it does connect to WiFi and the date and time are correct as well as all her login information.

For example, getting rid of all Mr Beast or Ryan's World even though it shows up for the age range I selected? Are there any bulk actions to help with this on a kids kindle or account manager on the browser? Because I'm currently left with individually ticking boxes to get this content off the tablet and it will take me forever.

Many thanks in advance!
