How does the Kindle Fire do playing a 1080p video off YouTube ?
Improvable Situation
Amazon Prime Video let's you only use sd quality on this tablet. On amazon's official site, the only samsung tablet with 1080p support is tab s3 ("UHD/HDR/HD auf Sony Xperia XZ Premium-Mobilgeräten; HDR & HD auf dem Samsung Galaxy Note 7, Galaxy 8, 8+, Galaxy Tab S3, Sony Xperia XZ1").
How to improve (beginning)
So I questioned, why isn't it possible? After checking DRM Info I found out, that this device support google widevine secuirty level L1 (which is necessary for amazon's drm streaming to work). So the idea is, that Amazon just doesn't have whitelisted this device to use FullHD. Knowing this, I checked apps for changing device information and the best app I found is Device ID Masker Free which is also available in the play store. The advantage of the app is, that it doesn't change the system values (build.prop) itself but just hooks in the calls of apps which give back the information (see this explanation). Now the idea is to change the device information values to suggest amazon's app that this device is an tab s3. I first only changed the model number, which gave me an errorcode 1004 in amazon's app when I loaded the app. This found website suggests that this code is because device model error. So, it worked, amazon's app now fishes my manipulated device information data. But because of the errorcode it doesn't seem to be sufficiently changed. Now I changed my current model to "SM-T825" and current device and current product to "gts3llte". Now I can start amazon prime video app without error. But when I start a video I get an error (without code).
We will make it together
So, this just seems to be a matter of changing the device information data to the correct ones to get it working. So let's take together the journey to find the right values. Maybe now the "current hardware" is also important? What could you find out? Hope we get Amazon FullHD working on this device .
Did you make any progress? What did you try already?
there is a simple work around - use any android browser e.g. chrome or edge. set it to desktop site in browser settings and load amazon video page. 1st time you play you will get a one time grant permission check for encrypted content. after that , anything you stream in the browser quickly scales to show 1080p at bootom of screen.
once you expand the browser window to full screen, its just like using the amazon app, but in full HD. you even get the IMDB x-ray overlay when you pause the screen
I have this working on a 10 inch samsung tab s1 and on a lenovo yoga tab 3. you MUST choose desktop site setting., and stream within the browser. |Iprefer edge browser to stream my prime video in HD because it remembers that setting, and I can set ti to load last used page for easy continue..
Holy Grail - netflix and amazon video both in 1080p
PS to my workaround. above - i stumbled across this thread while seeking info on the the samsung tab s4- specifically- will it do amazon video 1080p out-of-the box like the s3?
amazon don't know and it is not covered in reviews so far, or mentioned in specs on samsung site
Idid a lot of research on the s3, before deciding to wait for the s4 - including talking to amazon, samsung, netflix - and what i found is that the s3 does stream amazon video at 1080p but netflix at only 720p without workarounds. Which is strange, as my samsung s1 does netflix at 1080p but there you go. strange but true, confirmed by experts and by testing with test patterns. i expect the s3 uses a samsung-specific version of the prime video app, not the one in play store, and that's how it workd, but I see no way / no where to grab that apk for use elsewhere.
My s1 can no longer access the samsung galaxy app store as they made it into an android 7+ only thing and I have android 6 on the s1 with no official upgrade for that.
My Fire HD 10 - the latest version with the1080p screen - does amazon at 1080p but it does netflix at only 720 via the official netflix app. (Tested with both google play and amazon app store versions and with test patterns). I get 1080p on the Fire HD 10 with a hacked netflix app but with that i lose the latest UI with the 10 secs forward skip. I am not aware of a hacked for L1 widevine version that also has the latest netflix UI ?
Thus my holy grail of finding an android tablet that does both at 1080p out of the box, remains unsolved - unless the S4 can. ?.
Now that the S4 is actually released, hopefully there will be more reviews and a definitive answer. meanwhile , all I get from amazon is ask samsung
I can get 1080p for both streams , on samsung and on fire tablets but only by using a hacked for widevine netflix app on the fire & the stream in browser trick for amazon on the samsung.
there is no " run in android browser" trick for netflix AFAIK. Netflix always redirects to the app if installed, or seys to install it, if not.
the s3 also has netflix HDR but as I say, only at 720., and hdr is probably not worth getting excited about yet. I did try to ding out that netflix content has it already but did not get far on that.
it would be nice to know if the s4 has netflix HDR, just as a future proofing thing though
Have any progress?
No, but I'm also still interested.

Do you have bought the s4 now?
If yes, could you please send the device info so one can use the masker app (see first post) to let amazon think, p580 is s4?
Edit: for netflix see https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...lix-hd-widevine-drm-l1-devices-t3307241/page5
I think: Technically the device is L1 compatible. So the only problem is, that the apps (neflix and prime video don't allow hd on them). So there seem to be only two workarounds:
- Modify the app (or use an older version of the app?), to allow 1080p playing for this device
- Use the normal app but simulate for the app that it is an compatible device (e.g. using device masker)

have not bought another Samsung and probably never will.they are way to expensive compared with this....
I bought a Lenovo yoga tab 3 pro, or plus? 10 inch Android 1080p Netflix , dolby audio, and for Amazon I use the workaround of desktop site in android edge browser. TBH Its been ages since Amazon prime added anything I want to watch. I mostly watch Netflix, and sky box sets for the HBO stuff in the UK

2 updates:
1. after studying all the confusing info on S4 and S5 re 1080p - does it or doesn't it...
I bought a HUAWEI M5 10.8 This does netflix 1080p AND amazon video 1080p straight out fo teh box [ wll you have to download the standard amazon video app for play store and log in...]
my smart workaround for amazon video HD - use a browser in dsdesktop site mode no longer works. A must have blocked that loophole, I could not get any HD to appear in any browser, so either amazon was having a bad evening or they blocked that option- I think the latter because I tried downloading other browsers and none were asking for permission to handle protected content
for the record, and moving on from the s4, I am still unsure if samsung S5 does netflix @ 1080P, amazon video @1080P... or just one out of 2, or neither...
but the Huawei M5 media pad does both. it does not seem to have any audio settings to twiddle, but it sounds similar to my Lenovo Yoya with its Dolby Atmos ON.
I still think Atmos on tablets is all hype no substance - and probably it sounds good just because of EQ boosts and tweaks. There are no actual speakers on the ceiling !
it doesnt work with me
i used chrome it forced to go on playstore to download prime video app please help
Amazon adds webcam support to the Fire TV Cube
Amazon says it wants to help improve an unconventional holiday season with easier video calls.
www.theverge.com
With news that amazon is rolling out webcam support for fire tv cube, is there a chance they will eventually bring it to the Firestick ?
I think I read that zoom will eventually be fully fucntioning on Fire TV 'soon' (video and audio)
If they were to bring webcam support to the Firestick 4k, it would be icing on the cake - the 'ultimate' device.
Maybe with the OS 7 update for Firestick 4k next year ? I am not even sure if the Firestick has enough horsepower to support a webcam
Hi, after owning a 2nd gen firetv box (not cube) for years, I assumed that it did 4k...
Now the 4k TV has finally arrived - LG C1, I cannot get the ftv to output 4k !
It's set to 4k in settings, but the TV always reports 1080p.
I have several side loaded apps that play 4k, but....
I have been told that the 2nd gen box will only play 4k from Amazon content... Could that be true ?
Any advice guys ?
Thanks
Ps I've a 4k stick on the way, just in case lol

it does. Might be a network speed problem. Usually mine takes about 2-3 minutes to start playing in 4k. I never had any issues with 4k on my firetv2.
Mmm, that's odd then !
My 4k stick has arrived, and it working as expected... Same WiFi, same location... So I've given up on the box, it can go 8n the bedroom
Thanks for the reply Michajin
