Hi All,
I've found a few unresolved issues with both versions of Lineage OS for my Fire HD 10 2017 model. Can I just apply the FireOS back using TWRP? What would be the latest version I could apply so that I could root it to de-bloat it?
Thanks

Amazon officially released the update for Fire HD 6 and Fire HD7(4th gen and later).
Get it here:
Fire HD 6:

Fire HD 7(4th Gen Only):

Any root yet?
Can you downgrade from this version
Didn't expect that to happen, also could this be ported to the 2015 Fire 7, as they're the same tablet?
EDIT - Apparently it's still FireOS 5, even though the official update page says FireOS 6.

Some minor differences, Wifi for one, but 7.1.2 lineage has been ported to both.
Hi
I'm using a Fire HD 8 with Fully Kiosk Browser as a home automation control panel and it works great. Its rooted and I'm using Lineage 16, which is super.
I've just bought a Fire HD 10 2017 on Fire OS 5.6.6.0 and plan to use it for the same purpose. Fully Kiosk runs ok on Fire OS, but is better with original android. I'm considering rooting the HD 10, but there aren't as many ROM options and in general, it seems like less development or interest in the HD 10 compared to the HD 8. The most recent lineage build with working camera (necessary for fully kiosk motion detection) is Lineage 12.
Does anyone have any advice on the topic? Am I better with an older original Android installation or a newer Fire OS and try to debloat as much as I can?
Thanks
