Run the tool but no effect

[obrien-james]

Hi I am in the same situation as this.

Fire tab 7th gen - Fire os 5.7.0

I downloaded the apks from the links you provided added them to the batch folder and batch installed them.

It says they installed successfully, but I dont see them on the fire tablet:

Would also want to change the launcher etc...

The debloat reports its successful, but I'm not sure how to check this

The problem is this tool was made for Android 8.0+ in mind but Fire OS 5.7 is Android 5.1, so some commands don't work properly or the same. I can give you some commands to manually run when I get home to get the debloat list working and install Google services if you'd like.

That would be very helpful mate.

thanks

You should be able to open the debloat.sh script in Fire-Tools/Scripts/Posix and replace:

adb shell pm disable-user "$app" >/dev/null 2>&1 && adb shell pm clear "$app" > /dev/null;;

with

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 "$app" >/dev/null 2>&1 && adb shell pm clear "$app" > /dev/null;;

Thanks I will give I a go

[obrien-james]

do you have the commands to update the batch install too?

[mrhaydendp]

The batch installer should work regardless of the Android version. It could be the APKs that I recommended, here are the recommended ones for the 7th gen Fire tablets according to Android Police:

• Google Account Manager
• Google Services Framework
• Google Play Services
• Google Play Store

You can also install them directly from the tablet by transfering the APKs to a folder on the device and opening them with the Files app. Could you also run adb shell pm list packages -3 and share the output so I can see if any of the apps actually installed or just showed a false success message?
