Hi, is there anyone else uses the new Fire HD10 2019, deboated and with Google Apps installed?
I couldn't stream HD Videos from Amazon Play to my chromecast. Which works fine from my other (Samsung) tablets.
So i decide to install amazon video app from Google Play, but that doesn't work for me.
Does someone remove (i guess it's a system app on the HD10) and reinstall that app from google play?

Amazon Prime Video was installed on a system app that you cannot delete this unless device isn't rooted.
Following.
There has got to be someone that has de-bloated and still has amazon prime video and kindle books working.

Hi guys, finally I succeeded in installing Google Play on my Kindle fire HD 7"!
The only problem I got... it's that every application installed thru google play... remains in the google play application!
What I meant to say was... is there any way to link the apps installed thru google apps, on the Kindle Fire Home/Apps Page?
Thanks
Is it possible to get the WatchESPN APK from FireTV and have it work on ShieldTV?
If so, where and how?
It should work... Try installing / sideloading the Amazon Appstore APK and download & install the WatchESPN app from there... (I would tell you to use APK Downloader, but it can't seem to create a link for that particular app for some reason)
I was curious about this as well. I installed Amazon AppStore, and not all apps show up. For example, sonic 4 episode 1 and 2 both don't show up on shield TV. Also, it seems there are quite a few WATCH apps which i can't find such as watch ESPN, watch Disney. I'm wondering if there is an amazon fire TV amazon AppStore. My mom wants a streaming device, so maybe I'll pick up the fire tv stick today and see if i can pull the apks.
Yeah, I installed the Amazon App store but it barely works (needs mouse) and it's crippled, doesn't show many apps. Would be nice if APK downloader could grab it, but that only seems to work for Google Play Apps. Got to be a way...
I've tried it on the Nexus Player without any luck. It has some Amazon drm checks to make sure it is actually a fire TV/stick device. The farthest I've managed was to install it and get it to load. Once installed, all videos failed to play.

OK, so I got the same thing all of you did with the Amazon Appstore app/k... But I was able to get the WatchESPN app to work using the APK I downloaded from here: http://www.apk4fun.com/share/6916/
Of course, you will need need a mouse or keyboard w/ trackpad (which I use since other apps like Dish Anywhere also require the same thing), but at least I was able to play Live streams and clips after I provided my satellite provider's info...
Yeah the "normal" phone/tablet version works. You can also download the newest apk from the play store. However, if you want a version that works with only the remote, only version available is the Fire TV version; this version does not work with any Android TV devices because of the DRM.

You don't need the amazon app store for watch espn just sideload the apk it works on the Shield tv with a mouse it's the watch espn phone app. You can't get the fire tv android tv off the fire tv it want work on the Shield tv that app was made for the fire tv platform.

I suppose you could also install Kodi and use a plugin for that.
Any update?
Looks like this thread is now closed..... Watch ESPN is now official an Shield TV!
So I just got a Fire HD 8 and I figured that if I installed all the google packages and services that I could just download Netflix and it would work with my chromecast. This doesn't appear to be the case though. I read on another site that Amazon patched Fire OS to disable chromecast support for Netflix even when using the app directly from the Play Store. Will I need to root the device in order to restore functionality of my chromecast to Netflix?
I am having the same issue. I can cast Google Play Movies all right, but cannot cast Netflix.
Is there any solution for this? Preferably with no rooting involved.
I have a rooted Fire HD 10.
I am running the Pixel Launcher, and try to use as many Android apps, vs Amazon Fire versions.
One issue I am running into is that when an app tries to redirect me to the Google Play Store, I get the following notification:
Continue to Amazon Appstore?
This app is trying to open a link with an external market that is not available on your device. Would you like to open this link with the Amazon Appstore instead?Now, I DO have the Play Store installed, and it works just fine.
Is there any way to get the links to the Play Store to open Google Play?
Hi all,
I bought a Fire HD 10 (9th Gen. / 2019). I have successfully installed the Google Play Store, Google Services etc. and with the help of Fire Toolbox V6.5, I have deactivated the Amazon apps.
Now I have the problem that streaming to my Chromecast is not possible in Amazon Prime Video, the icon or the option to stream to my Chromecast is not shown. Google Home is installed.
With the YouTube app streaming to Chromecast is possible without any problems, here the streaming symbol appears.
However, I can neither install the Prime Video app via the Play Store nor can I manually install the APK. There appears always the error message, that the installation is not possible.
When I go the system settings in the app area, the Prime Vide opp is still included, but with the status deactivated. And I suspect that the reinstallation is therefore not possible.
Is there a way to delete the original Amazon Video app and replace it with the version of the Play Store?
Thanks in advance,
Grisu

You cannot delete this pre-installed Amazon Video app in /system/priv-app/com.amazon.avod folder unless this device is not rooted.

Thank you for your answer.
Is there meanwhile a way to root (temporarily) a Fire HD 10 (2019) which has version 7.3.1.1?
All of the instructions I found refer to 7.3.1.0 with the hint that rooting under 7.3.1.1 will not work.
Thanks,

Hi,
Did you ever find a solution to this?
I need to sideload the play store version of the app, but can’t as the Amazon version is there. Albeit disabled.
