HI! Have a big suprise for you! Maybe you knew that, but it's useful for new users like me!
For the fire stick 4k hasn't been rooted, there is not xposed or magisk, and the only way to make fun of it is adb. For example, the Icebox app, the shizuku app, app ops, my android tools.........those apps could be activated by the shizuku app. But first of all, you need a PC to adb the fire stick and activate shizuku everytime you reboot fire stick. It is inconvenient.
So how to adb without PC? Ennnn.....with termux app you can adb the devices itself!!!!!!! And you can activate some apps, those apps could only be activated by adb link.
How to do:
1. install termux
2. install adb tools on termux:
it's on this website:https://github.com/MasterDevX/Termux-ADB thanks for MasterDevX!!!!
you can use this code to install:
apt update > /dev/null 2>&1 && apt --assume-yes install wget > /dev/null 2>&1 && wget https://github.com/MasterDevX/Termux-ADB/raw/master/InstallTools.sh -q && bash InstallTools.sh
3. in the termux, input:
adb devices
then the adb authorize window would pop up, select yes.(in fact, the device want to adb you device is the device itself :laugh::laugh
you could see :"emulator-5554 device"
then, in the termux, input:
adb shell sh /sdcard/Android/data/moe.shizuku.privileged.api/files/start.sh
this could enable shizuku app. Once the shizuku is activated, it could activate the IceBox/app ops /myandroidtools.......
open the shizuku app, it would say:"running".
All done!
4. if you reboot or plug the charger out, you need do this again.
5. when you leave the termux, input "exit" with the return be pressed 2 times. So the code you input would be remembered by termux. Next time you just need the Arrow keys(upside or downside) to repeat the codes.
Notice:
I think the adb authorization of the fire stick is not very good. For many times(on wifi adb), there is no window pop up. So I could only adb with usb line. Maybe for the first time adb with termux, there is no authorize window pop up on fire TV, and the termux would say "emulator-5554 unauthorized". This is how I solve the problem:
open and close and open the adb debugging in settings.
if it didn't work:
Use otg to connect the fire stick to another android phone.
Repeat the termux steps above on both side. Then the authorize window would pop up when you input "adb devices" in termux on both side.
Disconnect. Normally boot up the fire stick, adb itself.

No one is rambling.
For the fans of android, we know that the Icebox is an app to freeze the apps you don't like, even the system apps.
No root, so you need use adb or the shizuku app to enable Icebox.And there is no "****" in the "shizuku".
Sharing experiences with other is a happy thing. And that is why we come to the XDA.If you dont like it, no one can force you to. But please respect the work of others.

hahahahahaha:laugh:first time to hear that. All the apps above you can find in the google store. The point is how to use termux adb the device itself. Hardly I can find any useful things about this on the internet.But for a unroot device adb is important to do something root-like.

Thanks for pointer to Shizuku Manager, It's exactly what I was looking for to enable IceBox.
Now I can disable all those amazon processes on my (new) Firestick 4K without the need to root...
I had actually asked how to do this on another thread!
@tinybilbo
So glad you like it!
Adb the device itself is such a simple but useful thing, but hardly I can find any useful informations on the internet. That is strange ....
Can we use the Shizuku (with Icebox) to 'freeze' OTA updates? I'd like to stay on the current version if I wanted to actually root later.

Well... every app I froze has definitely stopped and persists across reboots (even the main launcher "FTVLauncher"), So from my experience I would say "yes"

I didn't use any adb commands to freeze the launcher...
I used the Shizuku manager (read the OP on how to do this) to enable Icebox - which is an Appfreezer ( I also need the mousetoggle.apk since icebox works best with a mouse).
Once Icebox was working I froze the FTVlauncher.apk, just be aware when you freeze the main launcher you lose access to the FTV settings.
Just re-enable FTVlauncher to get it back.

What's wrong with you? How can you make such irresponsible remarks? You are the one who repeatedly humiliate others just for your own mistake and bad attitude. Say it again, it's you are the one who treat others un-friendly, bitterly and sarcasticly at first, and untill now. Yes, I did replied you straightforwardly at first, not for my self-esteem, but for your groundless accusations.

I have been trying to operate under a No-Root standard consumer/noob mode and just keep running into walls.
All the advice on sideloading is irrelevant for most apps you'd want to run, like Skype, Opera, Firefox, and GoLauncher Task Manager. I can load the apps and get to the Install screen but am blocked there and have to cancel.
So I'm rooting. I saw a suggestion to keep the device in unroot mode until you need it, which sounded right.
I think the grail here is a non-root solution so users can customize the Ux, get rid of the lousy backgrounds Amazon puts up, and if sideloading is going to be allowed, truly let the user beware and let the sideloading begin.
What do you think? Hear Hear! or am I missing anything?
Rooting is trivial. Easy to do once you are setup with adb.
As to keeping non-root most of the time, that depends on if you use something that won't work while rooted, like VOD... In that case, you need to at least temp un-root and it will work (might need to close it first).
Otherwise, I see no real reason to run un-rooted after you have root.
i've successfully installed firefox with 'adb install' on my un-rooted kf. it runs with no issues thus far. i then tried to install adw launcher standalone from here. this also installs fine, but when i hold down the home button and choose adw i get a force close from adw. is this a dead end without root?
My ADW runs great with a backup I made from my phone with Astro

Rooting is trivial for folks like us but I'm not going to tell a noob to download the sdk, mod files, etc. It is just too much for the young mind to grasp. It's why iPod and iPads rule the day and why AOL lived as long as it did--people don't want to take the extra steps.
Anyway, if there were really straightforward ways to sideload and not get locked out and to clean up the Ux issues, then imo most folks would do the lightweight appstore based mods.

This is exactly the reason why I'm not sure I will root my Kindle. I rooted my Evo 4G and my Galaxy Tab, but I might leave the Kindle so I can USE it rather than configure it. Getting bored of trying to figure stuff out like that as I get older.
I have a co-worker who's the young hacker type and he's left his alone, just using Google's mobile web interface for gmail. I might do that, and recommend it for my mom who only checks her personal email like monthly, maybe with the instant on Kindle and wifi at work and home she'll check it more.

What is VOD? If you mean video on demand or streaming, it most certainly will work if you're rooted. The "trick" is to rename the "su" file in /system/bin/

How do you get vod or amazon prime video to work once rooted? I'm not rooted yet but taking the plunge tonight. BTW, What thread should I follow to root my KF and then install all the google apps?

What launchers work on the KF? ADW, LP,etc.?
All keyboards work?
Is there any way to text on the kindle? That would help me so much.
What email apps do you reccomend, the stock email app is not agreeing with me.
I have a kindle running 6.2 and I try to root it with superoneclick and it says everything goes ok but then my kindle hangs on the boot screen for a long time. I get it going then I run android terminal and do the su command then It says I dont have access to the root and ideas?

After you have rooted, get the OTA RootKeeper from Voodoo. It will allow you to temp unroot really easy at which point you can use VOD without the block. IF you already have VOD running, you need to kill it from the applications screen (or some other task manager) and then it will run.

True SMS is not really possible as it has no data radio, but you can use alternatives. I think with sprint you can use their web interface. There are other options but not something I've looked into.

You don't need OTA RootKeeper to get VOD while rooted. All you have to do is rename "su" to "su2" in system/bin directory.

True, but get serious. With the app, you press a button and it is done for you. Without it, you have to physically go to the location and rename the file. Then when you want to use an app that needs root, you have to physically go and rename it back.
With the app, you just press a button and it does that for you without any mistakes much faster.
With the exception of VOD, I don't know of anything else that doesn't work when you are rooted (su showing). I normally just run with root on since I have other apps that require root to do their thing.
http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-remove-bloatware-from-your-android-device-xda-tv/
Does not need root access, you can remove .apks with it if you have root access, but it lets you disable without.
Download the Debloater tool, turn Debugging on, plug your phone in, start the program.
I just disabled LG Health on my Verizon phone with it. I would like to disable VoiceMate but I'm not sure what the .apk is. My apologizes if this is already known to work on the G4; I haven't seen it mentioned in the G4 forums, but I can confirm it does work.
Maybe someone can use this tool and compile a list of apps that are safe to disable using it.

No problem but be sure to add DTIgnite to the list, I missed that one. You will probably be better off uninstalling the DTIgnite update and disabling it from the app manager. That's the worst bloatware/spyware I've seen them preinstall. It's terrible.

I had to install the Verizon software assistant when you first plug the phone in to the PC. After that the debloat tool recognized it. Also make sure you have USB debugging enabled on the phone.
Dang I was all excited until I realized I needed a Windows box. Guess I'll have to wait to get home and dig out my old laptop to do this.
I have to figure out how to install the drivers on a mac. I know it is possible. this debloater works on a mac as there is a .dmg file for it. I can not use the verizon software assistant because it only works on a pc. Thank you for your help though.

With notifications settings set at NO popup in whatsapp, i still get my whatsapp msgs poping up while screen on.
The only feature i see is silencing them via Android notifications controler "by long pressing the notification from the notification slider"
But this will completely mute the notification, only icon showing on top bar with no sound or vibration.
I just want to stop the popup, and i think this is a problem in whatsapp handling the notifications with Android N
I didn't have any of these problems in my previous s7edge or note7 or opo3, hence the assumption..
Did anyone face this? If yes, any solution?
Note: i emailed whatsapp, but useless, no helpful answer, only the common reply email.
I would really appreciate the experts help here..
I have the exact opposite problem. I go into notifications and choose pop ups to show and they don't. I have chosen pop up to be shown when screen is on/off....or all the time, none of the choices work.

Just preform this command using adb
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
This will stop all peek (headsup) at a global level, all apps.. That was the only way for me (when i used LG and Huawei) since they have limited settings options on that aspect.
Assuming that you know how to preform this command, if not, just search in the forum and you will find out how to do so. This doesn't affect ur phone by any mean, no need for it to be unlocked or rooted or anything, it's just a shell command.. To reverse it, just change the 0 to 1 and done with the same command line..

but you wont get the vibration alerts either
They actually removed that exact feature from Nougat. You can silent the entire notification, but cannot turn off the floating notifications.
I was looking for solution on this either, stupid sumsung removed one of the best nougat control over notifications that you could define levels of notifications control and their priorities even of the list (The power controls notifications)... Idiots.
Now or you only have 2 options:
NO PEEK+NO VIBRATION/SOUND
PEEK + VIBRATIONS
instead of the great different levels of notifications control. Samsung always does some **** to piss off users.... because they decreasing the control that the user have over the phone instead of increasing.

F! That's true... sorry... I was on DND mode so I didn't realize that.
Hope we find some way...
Unless there is maybe a port from somewhere or an xposed alternative but still might not be possible since it can be far too complex as it mixes the notifications and settings, so I doubt we will ever get this properly working...

However I was referring not only this peek preview but also on the notification bar... when you have a message and you slide down the bar and you have the message there.
Crap samsung has some brain freeze once in a while for eliminating this ..
What is this adb everyone is talking about? I'm having this same complaint with the peeking and use to have it turned off on most apps. Just got android 7 this morning so still looking around, but sounds like dropping this code in is an easy fix.... But where do I drop it? Is this an app for the phone or is it on my pc? Can someone please describe how to do this from the beginning, not just "use adb, put in this code. Done." maybe for some of us less intelligent but equally annoyed with peeking people so we can remove it as well. Thanks!
I can also confirm that this worked. No more heads up popup when I get messages. Tested in Google Hangout and Whatapps.

ADB is a software you need to install on your PC computer (some where there is a 5 sec installation for it). Then you need to set your phone to USB debug mode and plug it into your PC with the USB cable. Your PC will detect your device.
Go to Start on your PC and in the search area type "cmd" to bring up the black box terminal window. Then just follow the two command lines listed to first detect your phone, then run the flag to turn off the popup. Reboot. Then it will work.
Test and tried on a Sprint Samsung S7.
It will remove the popup window but preserve sound.
hello i did root my op6t
and there is an app called
MAgisk
what does it do ? I mean I am an Apple IOS guy ...
could you help me ? also it says update it mine is (7.2.0) latest 7.3.2
thanks a lot
Rooting your phone without reading up about it before hand is a dangerous game to play.
There is plenty, and I mean plenty of information about Magisk out there, a simple search will go a long way.

thanks a lot for your advice
is it like Apple
like root it and then delete it make it original again? :good:
[somehow posted answer on wrong thread!?]
I suggest you to stay away from root until you've read enough about it...
Nothing is like iPhone here we're Android
Ehhh, like Linux, if you don't break Android once or twice, you aren't really going to learn anything.
IF you are already rooted and Magisk is installed find the OxyTweaker for Magisk module ( search this site) and install it. It is Viagra for your battery. Install Titanium and pay for the premium version......well worth it.....and AppOps and get to work on you phone.
I recommend the "freeze" option with Titanium until you actually know what you are doing. I also only grant temporary super user rights to both apps. Play around with removing google apps and getting a grip on app permissions.
I am a long time Apple Baby that converted in Feb this year. I can't see me ever going back to an Iphone. Just too much customization and control with Android.
All the best, JC

i have tried but still, i think its kinda hard, I am trying to install YouTube Vanced but I couldn't I did everything right on here :
link couldn't post it
I still need time and a lot of education vids
thanks a lot
Main reason that I rooted my phone is to block ads via block list instead of vpn. Second and probably better is that if you have a car or truck with android auto and want to use real GPS instead of Waze or Google maps. I love aa mirror + as phenotype changer. Which will mirror your phone and thus be able to use osmAnd from fdroid. Also being rooted you can use carstream to watch videos in your cars head unit. Also with magisk there are a few useful modules WiFi bonding and bromite come to mind.
Once you root YouTube vanced can be installed via magisk but also you can can download the apk and install that way too.
I been rooting phones since 2008 and fail to see how it is dangerous. Although some people due believe education is dangerous. Root never harmed me or my family and never threatened me or my health. A boot loop here or there a few soft bricks and a dozen or so voided warranties but no danger.
can I update my OP6t without losing my root ?

You WILL LOSE Root. There is a Guide in the Guides Section. Read that. Or if you need further help just ask.
I think there is a module with a script to do that. Just search update and keep root on the forum.
could you please provide me a link of that thread?
Thanks
Nope, but you should be able to search and find it. Saw it, but did not book mark it.

If you're on the stock ROM (Out of box OS). You can go into settings and search double at the top of the settings menu. There you should see double tap to wake as a search result and from there you can enable double tap to wake. Hope this was what you meant by double tap.
