Hi, any idea, why I don't have displayed "Uninstall" button when trying to use Fire Toolbox, on my Fire 7 from 2017, please? I wanted to re-install Google play as it stopped working. No chance to uninstall Google Play services app on the tablet, so I tried to use Fire Toolbox. I don't have option to Uninstall app in here neither. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Hi.
I'm being tempted to buy the new Kindle Fire HDX because of the build quality, amazing speakers and amazing specs. What puts me off is the lack of Google Play store but my main concern is not being able to download and sign-in to Google services and apps such as Youtube, maps, Email, etc.
What alternative ways (or third-party stores) that i can download so i can use and sign-in to most (if not all) of Google services apps that i normally need and have?
Please advice.
Thanks.
Take a look at the forums. At this point you can flash your HDX so that it's basically Android 4.2.2. Thing like Google Apps will all work. I check Gmail and use Google Drive daily on my HDX.
HDX is the best 7 inch tablet on the market right now. Its only real flaw being Fire OS can be remedied by anyone even remotely competent.
1mobile app store works, and you can download most if not all of the google apps through that. All that's really missing is the play store.
My wife has the old Kindle Fire HD and i have downloaded the 1Mobile market plus Good e-reader and Aptoide successfully. I found most (but not all of them) Google apps there but i noticed that you can't sign-in to them especially Youtube. Gmail is no big deal as i can check my mails on my phone or Mac. And there is no Google+ which is a shame. Unless i'm blind or its there now but last night i can't find it.
I dont' want to root my Kindle Fire HDX as im not familiar in the first place and i am very satisfied with just sideloading apps and going through third-party app stores. If there is another way to download the Google apps & services then ill buy the Fire HDX today.
So, apart from the ones i mentioned above is there another way(s) to look for .apk files of my favourite Google apps like Google+, Youtube, Maps, Translate, Drive, etc.? Please??

I am not desperate but it would be awesome if one can install the Google Play store on a Kindle Fire without rooting.

My Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 got the latest update and broke root. Now I get a FC of Google Play Store every 30 seconds to a minute. I uninstalled it but then all the google apps stopped working so I reinstalled it. Does anyone know how to silence this or do I just have to uninstall play store?
Resolved
Now that we have root again this issue has been resolved.
After I updated my kindle fire HD 7 to the newer 5.3.2 version, the google play services stop working correctly: the YouTube doesn't launch (white screen on the startup).
I've tried to reinstall the app from the Play Store without success for that problem. After that I tried to install different google play services versions and I tried to install again the 4 APK needed to get the google play store working on kindle fire and I it get worse because I was stuck with a older play store version... after many tries I decided to restore the OS...
How I fixed that:
I did a factory restore on kindle fire, applied all the updates.
I didn't login with my amazon account
Installed the google play store using the instructions from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/general/how-to-install-google-play-store-fire-t3486603
YouTube working
After the google play services automatically update, I had to restart to device to YouTube start working again.
As long I can use the google play store and the google apps I will stick with the stock ROM. Also I noticed an overall increased performance with this fresh install

Did you install 5.3.2 with root ? Or just by itself (unrooted) ?
No root. I never rooted my kindle, no need of that yet
I prefer the Kindle app from the Play Store to the one installed by default on the Fire tablet, because a lot of my ebooks weren't bought from Amazon, and Amazon insists on classifying these as docs rather than books, which means I need to use the Docs app to read them. Whereas the Play Store Kindle app handles Docs and Books in the same app together.
I have a Fire HD 6 tablet, rooted and with Gapps. I'm thinking maybe I could use Titanium Backup to uninstall the stock Kindle app, and then install the one from the Play Store - will that work, or is the stock Kindle app too heavily integrated with FireOS to safely remove? I've disabled the stock launcher, so the integration with that shouldn't be an issue.
my father has a Fire 7 HD that I rooted for him changed the launcher to nova, installed playstore and froze any system updates. I think it's on a late version of gingerbread or thereabouts.
installing the regular kindle app doesn't work, it asks questions about being an authorised device etc. so is there a version of it old or modded that will work OK ?
Hello everyone, i just bought a fire kindle hd 7 (9th generation), version 6.3.15 (updated recently)
I'm trying to remove bloatware and default apps.
Everytime i try to remove one like goodreads, kindle or the default mp3 player using - pm uninstall commands i always get the DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR. I've managed to uninstall a few, but the amazon specific apps won't go.
Is there a workaround?, am i missing somtheing? Thanks in advance.
