Amazon have updated there Alexa skills page.All the instructions for getting Ask Google onto the Echo are dated.Does anyone know of new up to date instructions explaining how to do it??
Search Youtube for "The Alexa skill you're not supposed to have" to view a good video tutorial on "How to get Google Assistant on Alexa devices" or pm me for the direct Github links.

how to have seperate youtube accounts
1. First follow directions here to create multiple accounts
http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tv/general/dual-google-accounts-t3206669
2. Google up youtube apk. (install the one for android I can provide an upload if you cant find one)
3. After installing youtube just go to the one for android tv (not the one you just installed) you will now notice at the sign in option at the bottom it lets you switch accounts...
4. Congrats!!!! Enjoy
UPDATE: For users that have version 1.1.16 youtube must go into google play store and type in youtube into the search at the top then select uninstall to revert back to stock 1.0.5.5 youtube

I've been following all the Google/Amazon hoopla "tit for tat" stuff that's been going on between the two companies with Youtube being banned from the Echo/Echo show. Well I came across an "Unofficial Youtube Skill for Alexa" on Github that may possibly be a temporary solution until the big boys stop fighting.
Now I've not tried this as I dont own an Echo Show & cant post any direct links but If anyone wants to give it a shot & report back if it works, go to github & add "/Fenton-Fenton-Fenton/alexa-tube" for full instructions.
this one is outdated. try alexa-youtube-skill.
It works but it can be very slow. The video part is in his todo list.
Hi to all,
is it possible to open on the screen of our Alexa Echo Show 5, a webcam link from outside, webcam world just like:
www.skylinewebcams.com
using my voice, just like: ALEXA PLEASE OPEN BEACH VIDEO.... or something like that
I can do now by Firefox on Alexa but is it a way to do directly by voice?
Thanks
It looks like they added support for opening URLs from skills. You would have to make your own custom Alexa skill, but it seems possible now. I saw this info here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57171495/display-a-hyperlink-in-alexa-skill
I opened the site webcams-hd.live
This guide is really simple and easy. It requires an adb connection only. First of all, this only works on the Fire TV Stick 4K, and secondly, go to Fire TV settings and go to developer options, then enable adb debugging. After that, either on your phone or computer, input this command: (adb connect 192.168.x.x) press always allow adb debugging on the Fire TV and type this following command: (adb shell, pm disable-user com.amazon.device.software.ota) to disable ota updates. The same command applies to the other bloatware as well! Other than that, that's pretty much it with what's required to free up more ram and storage space! Also a way you can tell if its disabled is if you notice: (Package com.amazon.device.software.ota new state: disabled-user) and putting the command, (pm list packages -d) meaning the list of packages disabled.
Thanks for this. I just got a fire stick 4k and put Kodi on it.
I want to keep the app store and Amazon prime video but remove the other stuff like
Alexa voice and shopping
Amazon Photos
GameCircle
Any other background logging and tracking apps that are not needed for it to function
Do you have a recommended debloat list of apps to disable or remove without root?

Yes! Here's a link to a debloat page for it! It gives you a full list on what you can and shouldn't disable! Before doing so, make an adb debugging connection through your computer first so you're able to enable the packages that cause issues!

Be careful what you disable from this list as some of them I've tested have caused issues with many things. I recommend disabling only the remote app functionalities, Amazon News (com.amazon.hedwig) Amazon Photos (com.amazon.bueller.photos) Amazon Music (com.amazon.bueller.music) Amazon Free Time (com.amazon.tahoe) Alexa Shopping (com.amazon.alexashopping) Alexa Notifications (com.amazon.tv.alexanotifications) Alexa Video Player (com.amazon.cardinal) Alexa Voice (com.amazon.vizzini) Amazon Sync (com.amazon.device.sync) Amazon Sync SDK (com.amazon.device.sync.sdk.internal) Built in Receiver (com.amazon.awvflingreceiver) Content Management Service (com.amazon.kindle.cms) Content Sync Framework (com.amazon.sync.service) Dialservice (com.amazon.dialservice) Display Mirroring (com.amazon.cast.sink) Fire TV Alexa Alerts (com.amazon.tv.alexaalerts)
Thanks.
how to remove files and app store and download folder on firestick i need help
I'm curious how much space you can save on the 4k disabling these? I don't mind the stock rom im just desperate for some more space!
When I try to do this, I get the following message:
Error: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: attempt to change component state from pid=6466, uid=2000, package uid=32107
Then you have a OS Version where Amazon has patched this.
I near future all Sticks will be patched with OS Update......
