I had kind of hoped when I bought it, that I could put a better launcher on it without the almost-full-screen ads, which aren't always appropriate in a home with children, but they've blocked the ability to change the default launcher; there are ways to have one launch after a short delay, but that just annoys the missus and confuses the kids when it launches just after they've started scrolling around the stock launcher.
- nani8ot 1y agoThere's currently a exploit which allows for system user access. This allows disabling core FireOS features like forced updates (which intentionally break custom launchers) and also allows setting a custom launcher. It's simple and can be done with just an Android phone (or ADB). I've set Projectivy as my launcher and now it starts directly instead of the ad-ridden Amazon launcher. https://xdaforums.com/t/system-user-fireos7-os8-all-fire-cubes-sticks-televisions-tablets.4759215/ https://xdaforums.com/t/system-user-fireos7-os8-all-fire-cub...
