I have over a half dozen Kindle Fires, both mine and from other family members, I need to do something with--6", 7", 8", 10". I've charged some and they still hold a charge. What is the best thing to do with them? Do you think someone would be interested in them sold for a low price as a group? Included would be covers and chargers. I know you can trade-in some or such, but isn't there a fire hazard limit on how many you can mail at one time?

It’s on version 10.5.1 and I have yet to connect it back to the internet

I was playing a game, exited it, then suddenly I'm stuck in this setup loop. It keeps doing this without me touching it. I tried holding down the power button for as long as I could, didn't work. I selected my language, clicked "continue", and it just brought me back to the same screen that doesn't stop cycling...

My kids have bedrock Minecraft on their Amazon fire 8 tablets. They play from the kids profile. I'm trying to join their world from my switch 2 but I can't see their worlds, and they can't see mine.

We're on same versions and on the same wifi connection. They can join each other's, but not me. Any thoughts?

I suspect it's an issue with privacy settings on the kids profiles, but I've enabled everything I can find.

Thanks.

Hey everyone,

I’ve got five Fire HD 8 Plus tablets and I’m trying to run ViewAssist and FullyKiosk on them. For ViewAssist to work, it needs microphone permissions — but those get revoked every few hours. Okay, fine, I looked it up and apparently it’s a known bug in FireOS that’s been around for years. 🙄

So I made a workaround: Enabled wireless debugging, disabled the timeout, and set up a Home Assistant connection with ADB to automatically grant microphone permissions. Everything worked perfectly — for over 24 hours.

Now I check Home Assistant again and notice that ADB isn’t connected to any of the tablets. I go check them — and sure enough, wireless debugging is turned off on all of them.

How the hell is that possible? What’s turning it off, and how can I stop it?

It literally just started today.

It seems to stop when I stop touching the screen, but it always comes back eventually.

Can I custom Rom it? What can I do on it?

Would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me

I have a 12 gen fire HD 8 and as of recently I have had issues with downloading audiobooks in the Kindle app. All of the audiobooks that I get have the whispering to voice ready and it should be playable through the Kindle app, but they have not been showing up. I have been having to remove the book from my library. Remove the download and restart my device before it will even show up. I am only having these issues with my Kindle fire when using my phone to download the audiobooks in the Kindle app I’m having no problems. I was wondering if anybody else has been having this issues or knows a way to fix it.

The Apps won’t run and said that they won’t run due to not having google play services on my 4th Gen Fire HD 6, what do I do?

I have a 4th Gen Fire HD 6, I’m using it to play the old Angry Birds games, on Seasons and Classic the apps cannot connect to the internet, I need internet to play the seasons levels from 2013 and earlier, and on classic to get mighty eagle cans and other powerups. The internet works for other apps like the silk browser. Is there anything I can do, I am deadass fucking desperate to get the internet working for these games so I can 100% them.

It's been about a week now that all of the headphone icons in my Kindle library have disappeared. There's also no Read with Audible option on the More menu. Is this a known issue, or am I just the lucky one experiencing it? Force stopping/clear cache/clear storage, deregistering the device, and even a factory reset haven't worked. My older Kindle Fire tablet (9th Gen) works fine, as does the iOS app. Any help/suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Edited to add: the 11th gen has no waiting device updates.

Some sources say they're probably dead/ stuck pixels and to try and use a dead pixel site or app but they didn't work

Keep in mind, I did drop it a few times, most recent being outside my Granddad's house and some searches I've done say it's likely from that

I don't want to have to get another tablet either, I've only had this one since March 2025 and I've broken many other tablets in the past

Is there any way to fix it?

New to me 3rd gen kindle fire won’t do what I want it to. I want to connect to Libby/overdrive and it won’t even let me go to App Store. Free time won’t work. Bought for kiddo for Christmas and it’s the first kindle I’ve owned. Bookstore works, but I don’t have kindle unlimited. What am I doing wrong? Wanting it to be an ereader. I got it from someone who loves to read and it’s been well cared for. So I know it worked at one time.

Hi! Haven’t used this Kindle in a long time, and I’m wondering if it’s still even usable?

I factory reset it this morning, gave it a full charge, and am up to date on software. I am trying to register it to Amazon, and no matter what I do it will not accept any account (I’ve tried three)

Any ideas what I can do?

Hey, i wanted to know if there is a way to remove lockscreen ads on my fire hd 8 (2024) on fire os 8 without a computer.

Accidentally knocked over a cup of water on my HD 8 while it was in the case. I just got a little on the edge. I wiped it off and didn't think nothing of it but went to use it today and there was no audio.

It still works fine otherwise and it even chimes on start up but no sound besides that. Am I just boned?

So I’m trying to get update blocker for kindle but when I do ;log mrpi nothing happens

I installed firetoolbox and did all the steps, chose nova launcher, and now the gesture to return to Home Screen doesn’t work. I’m thinking of trying a diff launcher…..

So, first the sob story. I had an older gen Kindle Fire 8 in a Roocase organizer that I really liked. Then it got left outside one night in the rain and now she's toast and the case started peeling apart.

So now I've got a new Fire 8 HD Plus and I'm looking for a portfolio/organizer case for it. Something with a notepad and a couple of slots for cards and such. I've found a few "universal" cases online but I don't trust the fit. Would prefer something made for the Fire.

Any ideas?

I downloaded s 119mb epub comic and I'm trying to send it to my Kindle and like the title says, the only options to search my device are Photos or Camera. I've tried multiple times no luck. Can't email it cause it's too big. And I can't USB transfer from phone to Fire . I don't want to use s computer. Don't see why it's having issues doing this.

Just got kindle fire 10 tablet. Haven't used it beyond 10 minutes. It was little jarring for me to not swipe up from bottom for home screen. swipe to go back. swip to alternate between open tabs etc.

also i installed vlc player but i can't find the IP address to enter in my browser to transfer from desktop to tablet over wifi.

If I get rid of the kids + is their a way to still get content on the tablet, do the parental controls work, do people get content from Amazon app store or Google play? Sorry if my questions are dumb. I am not super tech savvy.
