Hello XDA team,
First of all, Thank you for your support with Fire Toolbox.
I can customize my HD10 plus tablet with Fire Toolbox!!!
Today, I have downloaded FTB, and this version is V25.2.
And 'Google Services', 'Keyboard and Input', 'Lockscreen Management', and 'Manage Amazon Apps' was successful.
But I have faced some problem with Custom Launcher.
I have set 'Nova Launcher' in there, then I can found Nova Launcher app in my tablet.
When I executed this Nova Launcher app, this app showed me it was now set to default app.
So I tried to set this Nova Launcher app to Default.
But I could not find configuration menu in the 'Default apps' menu.
So, in the Nova Launcher app, if I pushed home button, my tablet back to Fire launcher.
Coud you check this problem?
my tablet build number is 0022247233412
Device model is Fire HD10 Plus.
FTB version is 25.2.
Thank you and Best Regards,
See the Fire Toolbox thread...newer update prevents replacing the launcher. I'm in the same boat.
Sounds like you might have FireOS 7.3.2.2.
In version 7.3.2.2 they made some things protected including the launcher which prevents it from being replaced.
No word on if there is a fix. I made some complaints to Amazon, and I'm waiting to see if someone finds a solution.

I recently rooted a kindle fire and installed go launcher EX. Now for some reason, the icons in the kindle are screwed up and don't display normally anymore. I don't want to clear default data for the launcher (but will do so if it is the only way)..
Here is how it looks like...
Is there a way to fix this? Thanks
I fixed it, I found out it was the Chainfire3D app I installed. .
Please close thread! Thank you!
I am using the NOVA launcher with LauncherHijack . It works, but I have two questions.
Is my perception that this combo is slowing my Fire HD8 correct ? It seems more sluggish.
What is the safe way to go back to the default Fire launcher ? Can I just delete LauncherHijack and NOVA ?
Yeah, just uninstall both apps. I tried the same thing and agree. With FireOS launcher still running in the background, it causes slow downs. We need a Dev for this device so we can just get a custom ROM.
In Chrome, there's an "Add to Home Screen" item on the menu. This worked fine on my other Android devices, but for some reason it's not working at all on my new 2019 Galaxy Tab A 8 inch tablet.
I tried this with the default launcher, and with ADW launcher, no joy.
It's also not working in the stock Samsung browser.
I was finally able to get my favorite shortcuts added by restoring a backup launcher config from my old device (Fire HD8 2016). A bit of a hack, but it worked.
Any idea what's happening (or not) here?
So I used the latest version of the Fire Toolbox to convert my Fire HD8 to a true Android tablet. At the same time I installed the Nova launcher. Nova settings says it is not the default launcher, but if I go to Settings and Accessibility it says Nova **IS** the default launcher. Confused.
Admins if there s a better place to post this feel free to move it.
Hi! I just bought a new Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus, the latest version, and used Fire Toolkit to remove all the Amazon stuff. I installed both Niagara and Nova launchers, and they will not stay set as the default launchers...
Also, I cannot change wallpaper in my settings! It just keeps jumping back to the previous settings screen.
Not sure what is going on, everything else Toolkit did is fine. Thanks!
You are running Fire OS 7.3.2.2? Amazon protected some system apps, including launcher. So it is not possible to change the default launcher.

I'm having the same issue. When I try to change the wallpaper it exits out of the settings. I was able to change wallpapers though using other wallpaper apps. For instance, the Resplash app on Google Play store let me download and change the lockscreen/home screen wallpaper with no issue.
The only issue is changing the wallpaper from the settings menu. That doesn't work for some reason.
