hey! is there a bug free version of youtube for the fire tablet?
the official youtube apk keeps freezing when I switch to my subscriptions and the one Amazon provides is worse than the mobile website!
Get the Google Play framework/services/account manager/store APK files on your device, then just download the official YouTube tablet app from there.
YouTube and most other Google apps rely on the Play Services to function properly.
I use YouTube Vanced :[Magisk] iYTBP - Youtube Vanced [Official]

Doesn't Vanced require Magisk? I thought you couldn't run Magisk on the Fire 7th gens?

No- it doesn't require anything. I use it on a Fire HD8 (and everything else since it kills all the ads). You can check out the features here:[Magisk] iYTBP - Youtube Vanced [Official]
Mod Edit - No longer applies.
So which youtube version Is working with the hd 8 please and none root.?

Standard YouTube tablet app, from Play Store (needs to be installed separately).

if it no longer applies does that mean I don't have to sign in? No link anywhere in this thread anymore so I hope so.
came back to my Fire HD 8 (2017) after months to give to my father. running great with play store and bloat removed thanks to the Tool provided here
My only issue is I cant update it (which isn't surprising after running a tool like that) and for some reason cant install any apks unless form the app store (amazon store is gone) The installing apks part was new. Don't recall that being an issue. i even have "install from unknown sources" allowed in security and toggled it off and on between reboots.
My work around for Vanced and MicroG was throwing the apks in "Bloatware removal root folder"\Apps and then editing the Fire Tool.bat to include new option to install microg and vanced. I just copied the install commands for launcher/hijacker and edited to push the new APKs. very simple and worked perfectly.
Didn't try to logging in yet, was going to let me father try to use his account. If we can't it's not a deal breaker. ad free youtube on his tablet will work great. Really regretted buying this tablet at first but after XDAs help, its the best little tablet that could for under 50$.
PS. As for Vanced. Use it on my non-rooted One Plus 6 phone and love it. It's where I got the idea to install it on this tablet. Only odd thing is I installed the same apk on my phone as the tablet. The one on my phone applies the proper dark theme but the tablet doesn't. Again, not a deal breaker.

There is a Vanced mod for Magisk, but you can also go to the Vanced thread on XDA and download and install the non root Vanced. Apk that works on anything, along with the MicroG.apk in order to be able to sign into YouTube. I don't believe you need the MicroG.apk if you are rooted.

Please note that this write up is based on the assumption that you have a rooted after updating firmware to 7.1.1 and also unlocked bootloader
On several ocassions I was tempted to take firmware upgrade to Anroid 7.1.1 but thinking of missing xposed, I was delaying it. Finally I decided to take the firmware update mainly because of several goodness packed in Android 7.1.1. Finally I updated my device with Android 7.1.1 and took following alternatives to enjoy the benefits that I was enjoying with xposed.
1. I hate softkeys and also wanting to always keep status bar immersive. Xposed immersive module was doing the job. I achieved the same wihtout xposed as below,
Added a line in build.prop qemu.hw.mainkeys=1, and restart phone hides navbar permenantly. Installed Tile Root to hide status bar and the good thing about this this app is that it doesn't loose notification pull down option. Once installed it will be seen in Quick settings as it doesn't have launcher. Using Quick settings edit, you can being the immersive button and use it to go immersive. We need Pie Control to manage the absence of navbar.[/URL]
2. YouTube background playback was possible with the help of xposed module. I managed the same screen off playback as below,
Installed OG YouTube which is a moded version of official YouTube. This has the ability to play YouTube in the background. You can search yourself to find this modded app
3. Magisk work for 7.1.1 hence if anyone wants to use Android Pay it is still possible
If anyone wants to find alternative for the xposed module that were in use until MM, please post here. We can collectively find a best possible options.

YouTube ads can be filtered using xposed module YouTube Adaway. I am Adguard to do this job and selected HTTPS filtering instead of VPN option. It works better now. I can enjoy YouTube videos without ads which use to appear every 15min.
I miss some module that allowed to swipe up and down in the official youtube app for changing volume

Play Fortnite on a rooted or unrooted device with that unlocked bootloader
Hi XDA, I want to show you how to play fortnite with an unlocked bootloader without and with root, here are the steps
Disclaimer: This method will stop the use of magisk modules and magisk hide denies superuser privileges for the root apps hidden, proceed at your own risk and I am not responsible if your account gets banned or for the normal reasons (Thermonuclear war, etc.)
Without Root
Flash one of these kernels listed
KingKernel by kingbri (self promotion)
Flash Kernel by NathanChance
Stock Kernel with safetynet patch
Use EX kernel manager to check if the kernel is installed
Disable USB debugging
Install Fortnite
Profit
With R00T (Magisk modules will not work with this method)
Flash magisk and one of the kernels listed in the unrooted guide
Open magisk manager and grant superuser to all root apps (This is important later)
Open Fortnite installer and install fortnite but DO NOT OPEN IT
Use magisk hide and manually check all of your root apps + the fortnite installer and fortnite app
go into magisk manager settings
Click the "hide magisk manager option"
wait until the app closes out and a few seconds after that
enable magisk core mode in magisk manager settings
Open a file manager and delete the magisk manager folder as well as other folders such as EX or Alogcat
Disable USB debugging
Launch Fortnite
Profit
Always remember to un-hide root apps when you want to use them and hide them when using fortnite, otherwise, you will be kicked for their stupid "security"
Need an invite? Here's a fix
Open up build.prop in a file manager that is NOT CHECKED ON MAGISK HIDE
Edit build.prop to have these lines
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.build.product=star2lte
ro.product.device=star2lte
ro.product.model=SM-G965F
ro.product.name=star2ltexx
Save and reboot
Open magisk manager and magisk hide that file manager
Open Fortnite
You should be able to sign in
If you want to, revert your build.prop to the original settings and you will magically be invited since you participated on a "Samsung Device"
Feel free to rant about Epic games security here, because i'm pretty pissed at them for doing this.
Thanks to this youtube video for showing me how to bypass root checks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ystVcsFjJaE&t=157s

What y2grae is saying is that this is a Pixel XL forum, so obviously the kernels will be for Pixels and this method has most likely only been tested on a Pixel XL. You could find your own kernels and see if this method works for your phone as well.
I can confirm that following this guide worked for me. I can for the first time play Fortnite on my phone.
Edit: I just uninstalled the Fortnite Installer once Fortnite was installed. I don't see the point in keeping it unless I am missing something.

You must keep the Fortnite installer installed. It's what installs updates to the game, and you cannot play on an un-updated game.
stupid question, but i played it on my galaxy s8. but how do i install it on my essential phone now? i dont have any invites. its not that i play it mobile but its nice to have. (and im about to unlock and custom rom my essential phone so yeah..) looking to find how to get it working after that
There is a Reddit Thread that makes it appear like installing Fortnite from Samsungs Galaxy Apps will give you a chance at getting the Galaxy Skin.
I might try using my build prop editor/Galaxy Apps apk and seeing if I have any luck.
Anyone have any input or thoughts about why this might or might not work?
Edit: Seems to be working so far. I changed my build prop, downloaded the installer again and a pop up displayed saying "play 3 matches and unlock the skin in 24-48 hours. Only time will tell if I get it.

Did it work for you? From what I know, after spoofing it to be more 9, you still have to play 3 games but every time you try, it'll kick you out after you jump out of bus which won't let you complete the 3 games you need for he skin.

I was able to play the three games successfully but I don't think I'll be getting the skin from it as I played them over the weekend and it has been well over 48 hours.
There was a thread in the Pixel XL forum that guided you through playing on a rooted device and it works, but editing the build.prop isn't good enough to trick the game into giving you the skin. I read on a reddit thread that the Tab S4 can award the skin multiple times if you factory reset it because there is no imie linked to it so I might try using that instead.

Understood. I have a question: What makes the particular kernels in the first post so special that they pass safety net? I ask because i have a different device (Galaxy Note5) and im not sure which kernel will support passing the latest "invalid response" error that Magisk is currently having. I'm not asking you hunt kernels for me, but what determines it. I looked at the kernels that you suggested on the first post but they didn't mention any notes of patching safety net.

The Kernels have nothing to do with the 'Invalid Response' that Magisk is giving you. Magisk gives the 'Invalid Response' not because you fail SafetyNet Check but because Google changed how the API works and Magisk hasn't updated yet to work with it. Even with the 'Invalid Response' you most likely still pass the SafetyNet Check. This has been a known issue for a week or so now.
I believe he chose those Kernels because they include a few extra measures used to hide root/ pass safetynet.

I rooted and unlocked my FireHD 10 2017.
After disabling every Amazon bloat, I wanted to install Prime Video from the Playstore. In order to get rid of any package conflict, I removed prime video folder provided in /system/priv-app. I can successfully install prime video from Playstore but it only launches for two or three seconds and then it crashes. Logcat doesn't show any interesting log.
Is there anyone who know what could cause this? I really want to keep prime video updated so I like the Playstore variation.

Hi there
Past week I had to replace my defunct HTC, my first choice was a OnePlus, but due to budget reasons, I bought a Xiaomi Mi 9T instead. MIUI annoyances aside, I noticed that now youtube is riddled with ads, it is almost unusable. I am watching the same channels I used to before, but now it has like 4 or 5 times more ads.... did you noticed this same behaviour? is it normal?
Thanks.
just use blokada and your ads are gone (in every App)

Yeah, I went that route and so far is being a pain in the arse. In order to install the split apks with SAI, I had to disable MIUI optimizations in developer options, and after re-enabling them, now my apps permissions are all messed, I found out whatsapp would't show my contacts name anymore, to discover that every permission had been revoked. That happened to lots of other apps, some of them will ask for them the next time I launch them, but others will just not work properly, and now I have to figure out everything. And on top of that, with Vanced I have to give up my Google credentials If I want to have access to my histoy, subscriptions and so on.
I wish I spent couple hundreds more in a OnePlus or a Pixel, I would save it in pain...
Thanks.
installed vanced this week and none of ypur problems was present.
youtube is private company, so they do what they want basing on your internet profile. some videos have 20 ads and some have jist one

Actually there is YT Vanced apk (root not required) abd YT Vanced module for Magisk.
Both block ads in YT, apk does not fully work with YT accounts, module does work with YT accounts
As answered earlier yes: AdAway (needs root but) modifies hosts file and hence it DOES NOT block ads in YT - it has been discussed and confirmed/explained many times in XDA AdAway thread (also in DND66 thread that also modifies DNS but through VPN and does not require root)

Why do you wanna have the root version?
If you take the non root version it works also great and it's enough to disable youtube.
I have root so I prefer to use that version. Even if I only disable YouTube and install the root version via vanced manager, when I reboot it disappear.
No one, please?
I don't think you need to remove the stock versions, just uninstall their updates and Vanced will install on top of it
