The Fire HD 8 Plus tablet has a 64-bit CPU, but has an Application Binary Interface (ABI) of armeabi-v7a, which means the tablet is limited to running only 32-bit applications. This issue is affecting millions of Amazon customers that purchased the Fire HD 8 Plus tablet. In 2022, most current and emerging mobile apps in development are designed for 64-bit mobile devices, and will not install/run on 32-bit devices.
Is it possible to install a 64-bit ABI (arm64-v8a) to enable the Fire HD 8 Plus tablet to run 64-bit applications (as well as legacy 32-bit applications)? The full potential of the 64-bit hardware should be used. If possible, does anyone have the 64-bit ABI files available for install?
If that isn't possible, is there a 64-bit ROM compatible with the Fire HD 8 Plus that can be installed to enable the use of 64-bit apps?
Thank you for any assistance.
Not yet, no. It hasn't been rooted yet.

Android 10 is completely compatible with ARM, and there are already some devices which have Android Q on ARM. So just wait until it's done
Hi
I'm using a Fire HD 8 with Fully Kiosk Browser as a home automation control panel and it works great. Its rooted and I'm using Lineage 16, which is super.
I've just bought a Fire HD 10 2017 on Fire OS 5.6.6.0 and plan to use it for the same purpose. Fully Kiosk runs ok on Fire OS, but is better with original android. I'm considering rooting the HD 10, but there aren't as many ROM options and in general, it seems like less development or interest in the HD 10 compared to the HD 8. The most recent lineage build with working camera (necessary for fully kiosk motion detection) is Lineage 12.
Does anyone have any advice on the topic? Am I better with an older original Android installation or a newer Fire OS and try to debloat as much as I can?
Thanks

You can done with a Fire OS:

I'm thinking of purchasing a Fire HD 10 soon, but am not pleased with the fact that it is running a 32-bit OS. Since it has a 64-bit CPU, is there any way to install a custom 64-bit OS?

Android OS cannot be upgraded to 64-bit OS
Is it possible to deploy a 64-bit application on Wear OS ? As I understand, there is no 64-bit Wear OS emulators available. Also the physical devices supporting 64bit are also minimal. But I could not find relevant information that if the Wear OS is also a 64 bit variant and not a 32bit OS running on a 64bit device.
Is there any material or data available on this ? Is 64 bit Wear OS in Google's roadmap ?
I have got a very old 2011 unmodded samsung galaxy tab 10.1, is there any way that I can run windows 8.1 natively on the device. Even better if I can dualboot it.
IMO you can't because the system requirements aren't met.Windows 8.1 system requirements are as follows:
Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with support for PAE, NX, and SSE2
RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
Hard disk space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver
