    • THANKS AMAZON, finally got my money's worth: GREAT MOVIE & READER & GAME TABLET
Digital Storage Capacity: 16 GB Offer Type: With Special Offers Color: Canary Yellow
NOOB ERROR REWRITE: @ 74, and a gray beard, it's to be expected: bought 07/15/17. Plays everything without screen jitter [NETFLIX & HULU & YOUTUBE + apps for video capture (nope)/then downloaded to the *card] AND has an exceptional app store, an extremely easy set-up, and it replaces the $219.00_09/06/16 boat anchor RECPAD 10 for about 1/3 the cost. WRONG, the app store is centric and fails to understand that a customer may want more than just a reader, as there are NO video capture apps that would do the job for youtube, and the AV values establish that there are no majors involved with this product. REPOST #2 (2 days later), 14 days in, and it has worked similar to my ROKU 3 and Vizio flat screen from the second day of possession, and has become one of the first things I reach for after breakfast <grins>; so take what you want from the post, and enjoy the latest addition to the tablet world--now that it JUST WORKS: Just a thought before you start this fun journey, as a sidebar: to search for a program you can't find in the Amazon app store, use your home computer (or the tablet in it's virgin state, grins, only after you install an AV) and go to the web search site you use and do this: playstore (space = and) name of the product. This should be sole directive reason for the entire installation, finding the apps you need to enjoy the tablet to it's fullest. And remember, while you will be gaining TWO GREAT APP STORES, the "playstore" has an ANDROID foundation, while the FIRE OS is an Amazon Fork of the android OS. If you want to employ ANDROID, fully, use XDA (https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/general/how-to-install-google-play-store-fire-t3486603), and this takes you directly to the GILLY10 reference for using his NO ROOT article: [HOW-TO] Install Google Play Store (Fire OS 5.X) (No Root/PC/ADB). FOUR sequential downloads, from top to bottom, AFTER you download TOTAL COMMANDER (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00H4IHJ8M/ -and this one allows you to install TOTAL COMMANDER directly from their site)---and all of which comes AFTER you set-up a gmail.com account, plus go into SETTINGS/SECURITY/ENABLE APPS FROM UNKNOWN SOURCES (sic, and all of those items are mentioned in his dialogue). Each single download, and #3 has two parts (so read the difference) as the second is expressly for the Fire HD 8 2017, where each will install with a pop-up that shows: "open (until) next (until) install (until) done (tapping each at the bottom of the install window)," which allows you to go to the next of four downloads, in the vertical sequence. And note that #3 is big, so it does take some time to create the file. Do not exit any of the segments of this paradigm until you see and tap "DONE". Then go back (left triangle icon) to the download page for the next one. After you have done all FOUR, shut down, wait about 30 seconds, then restart. It took me about seven minutes, but I'm a graybeard and slow was expected. And, don't worry if you get it wrong (sic, as I did originally = impatient, didn't wait for the DONE to show); just go back to the beginning and start over, which might include a pop-up = "download again?:" tap YES. You can check whether the progression of downloads has successfully been implemented by going to the (new) PLAYSTORE app/icon (home page) and engaging it. If there is no reaction, it generally means that the dependencies between the four downloads have not been successful, and that is why you FULLY download them in the same progression, again. Simply put, you don't know where the dependency error has occurred, and starting all over solves that unknown problem. The watchword here is PATIENCE, because it is well worth the effort expended. VOILA, you have a stable and NOT ROOTED tablet. That was extremely worrisome against not only the 90 day period from Amazon, but the two year period that I opted for with SQUARETRADE. Now, if I choose, the tablet can be reverted to factory settings from within the tablet, meaning NO ROOT action occurred. Don't forget to reverse the SECURITY SETTING = DISABLE APPS FROM UNKNOWN SOURCES after you have done this to ensure that vulnerability is closed. And because the resident engine was only 16G, it is possible to move almost all apps directly to the Micro SD from the settings page. And the card storage slot is protected by a snap/flap, which should eliminate any possible card loss or dirt gaining access to the interior of the tablet. And as observed during the 64G Samsung EVO card installation: if the softly inserted card starts to go into the receiver at an angle, pull it out and flip it over so the copper data leads are facing the installer like the unit's screen during this act (the top edge/removal rib will be reversed to the screen face): AGAIN, softly so that you don't BRICK either the card port or cause card damage while inserting the card (OOPPSS, Amazon, you goofed), which requires that the thumbnail push/card insertion is accepted by a click value that is felt and close the flap. Yes, finding all of the Amazon CENTRIC apps at the top of the central page is a nuisance. To make this more amenable, hold a fingertip on an app, when it expands move it into the same space as another you want to reduce the real estate against and you have created a folder. Do this for all of the ones you don't want at the top, then maneuver them to a side and then downwards. You can also make folders for your preferred apps, making it easier to find them. Labor intensive, as it takes patience, but you will be rewarded with a central/home page more to your liking, against what is (initially) counter-intuitive: HORIZONTAL SWIPE (top task bar indicator HIGHLIGHTED) RECENT TO THE LEFT and working to the RIGHT from the HOME PAGE (BOOKS open), etc. SQUARETRADE: opted for the two year warranty, and was expecting an email so that the tablet could be registered. I had to physically call them about the issue, since it was five days past the supposed delivery date. The individual I spoke with verified my email account with Amazon, and then sent me a registration form (aka, tap this block of type to open the registration area of their firm-online), which I did. I found the missing warranty on the resulting page, after sign-in [sic, use a different password against the primary Amazon account (duh)/name sign-in for their site]. In fact, it's suggested that an account be established with them, after the initial purchase, so that you don't go through the same turmoil I experienced. It seems that their Sales & Customer/Online Server actions don't necessarily update each other. The AV is now KAPERSKY PREMIUM 5PC license, with the kernel for it from the google playstore. And after all of the various downloads were updated, which took about 18 hours of background/online activity, there was a notice from my AV that SILK is a dated browser. That might have not been germane, against online security, but the merge with BING told me I couldn't allow the precedence to occur. How many times has there been a comment in the news, particularly ZDNet and/or PC Magazine, regarding the various HOLES in either the search engine or software product created by them. I'm too old, and a fixed income dictates that my online activity be very secure (or as secure as humanly possible). The tablet now runs CHROME, given I have to use my credit card online to pay for some of the product connectors for the tablet, and PAYPAL is very stringent as to how access is used. And because most people use some-kind of hibernation or sleep value (shown below in the MOKO wallet), it is appropriate to occasionally just turn the tablet off. Then a tablet restart triggers CHROME to check, in the background, if there is an update. ADS were removed by the following method: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/?ie=UTF8&nodeId=200671290&qid=1423353619&sr=1-1. Yes, it cost me $15.00, but I considered it part of the original cost. And, if I'm correct, I can "opt-in" for a modified advertising value (sic, Kindle SciFi or other genre). Yes, sound was an issue, but using the Amazon appstore, find SOUND BOOST for the Kindle Fire. I can now hear PACMAN at arms length, and only used a 20% boost. Careful, remember the speakers are tablet size so you can ruin the BASS driver if you overload them. Add the "MoKo Case for All-New Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet (7th Generation, 2017 Release Only) - Slim Folding Stand Cover for Fire HD 8, BLUE (with Auto Wake / Sleep)," and auto off/on pays for itself by sleeping the tablet when closed, yet POPS ON with a simple flap motion. This eliminates any lag from the tablet being OFF, yet has no observed effect on the battery to any degree (sic, tested against several sleep cycles). Only the BLUE so far, but they will probably add others as demand increases, plus the price point is just right. OOPPSS, just looked and it appears that they have harnessed the rainbow. Add the OMOTON hardened glass (9H) screen, which involves easily understood instructions--almost a "NO FAULT VALUE--ONE TIME INSTALL," and you have protected the most vulnerable piece of real estate for the tablet. And you don't need another screen protector, as the OMOTON does resist fingerprints. And to simplify adding movies for later viewing, when away from a wifi value, use the following Transcend dongle/USB 3.0 to move from any saved source to the MICRO-SD you are installing in the tablet: Amazon Store, Transcend USB 3.0 SDHC / SDXC / microSDHC / SDXC Card Reader, TS-RDF5K (Black). It's faster than the usb to micro-usb dongle/cable running at 2.0, and allows you to monitor what the children are watching. - - - - - - - - - FOR FIRST TIME USERS, and that was me 14 days ago <grin>: PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST, then: Hello NEW USER: Simply read what this post suggests against (copy/paste WOULD BE FOR A FULL COMPUTER, while a tablet uses TAP = the action you need): https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/general/how-to-install-google-play-store-fire-t3486603; then the next is: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00H4IHJ8M/ and TOTAL COMMANDER can be downloaded and installed directly from their site); and BEFORE you do them, use the SILK *BROWSER (* internet enabled search engine) to find "gmail, where you will create an email account expressly for the installation of pure ANDROID apps (apps = applications at the GOOGLE site); then go to SETTINGS (white gear with a hole in the center and tap), then find SECURITY on the right side and down just a bit, then APPS from unknown sources = slide the dot to the right and the enabled value should glow orange, tap the center icon for the home page, and you are just about ready to really enjoy a very decent piece of hardware. And just before you start everything mentioned here, please choose an anti-virus = use that name in the Amazon app store. For this purpose I would suggest AVG. It's simple to install and FREE. From there please turn on your wifi (internet = the web) connection, which will allow the program to update in the background (i.e., it works without you seeing the activity, but will pop-up if there is anything "silly" going on. And silly is used to denote something happening that is wrong. If that happens, follow the program prompts; and, if it's confusing, quickly go to the wifi connection and disable it until you understand what is going on). Wait about 30 seconds, then start the JOURNEY. And if you have a computer at home, and it's anti-virus has multiple license', you should be able to find the KERNEL (sic, base engine) for it in the Google playstore (right facing triangle that uses blue & green & red & yellow). There are quite a few tricks for further down the road, such as Piriform's CCleaner or an equivalent (removes the history from online activity-stays in memory until erased, and ideally should be removed after every internet excursion), CM Security (which may not be needed initially, just a mention, as the AV should handle everything), plus too many others to discuss at this time. Note: The two "HTTPS" values are in the dialogue below, but I separated them and show them above (don't use them until after you set-up the "gmail account and after you enable the security codicil mentioned") so that you would know what you are looking for: the first takes you directly to the SITE for the four downloads mentioned below and in the GILLY10 article, and the second allows you to install TOTAL COMMANDER while at that site (i.e., note the ".co.uk," it's a British site--and that's how fast it happens <grins> way over there to here in a flash). Now there are three icons at the bottom of the home screen: triangle is a "BACK ICON," the circle invokes the "HOME PAGE," and the square shows "TABLET ACTIVITY". Note that you can simply delete the activity value if you swipe down from the top, then continue through the white blocks below it until you see "clear all." Also, read the values for the lateral display against the HEADER task bar (sic, highlight will show you where you are: RECENT & HOME & BOOKS & VIDEO & GAMES & SHOP & APPS & MUSIC, etc.). Below is the full dialogue, corrected from my error in using TOTAL MANAGER (ooppss, I'm a graybeard (74) noob who has had his tablet for all of 14 days, and enjoyed the learning experience). Now I have a tablet that will do almost everything, and then some: It works just like my ROKU 3 & Vizio flat screen TV, can play games (suggest the "playstore"), and watch OTA (over the air) broadcasts from just about any source in my area (HISTORY, DIY, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and the list goes on and on. Enjoy the experience <grins>: ... show more

    • *** WARNING WARNING WARNING *** This product is very addicting....
Digital Storage Capacity: 32 GB Offer Type: Without Special Offers Color: Black
All-New Fire HD 8 with Alexa review: Warning this device is addicting!!! Before I get into my review a little history. I've been in tech most of my life. I have learned over the years many times that new is not necessarily better, also that I generally wait until pain before upgrading. Well my daughter started me off on the Kindle bandwagon with a Kindle Paperwhite a few years back. I love the way it has a SUPER LONG BATTERY life, problem was it doesn't do color. Little bit of trivia for you, color e-ink readers were coming out, but tablets and iPads were the death knell for many eReaders; especially color as they were the cost of a tablet plus some. Okay here is my review. I was hesitant to get a Fire at any cost as I had read many of the negative reviews in the past. When Amazon dropped the price to under $100 along with extended battery life of up to 12 hours I could no longer hold back from buying one. By the way normally I would wait longer to do a review, it is just that I have been so happy with the process and using this device I could not wait. Before ordering I read the one star reviews first, something I always do. After that I read the rest of the reviews. I strongly suggest you do the same. Actually doing this for all your purchases will save you a ton of money, that and Google. I read one review that said you could not use a Bluetooth Keyboard and mouse. After reading another that said that it could be done and how, I decided to make my purchase. I had also read about troubles removing advertising, which I had no problem doing with my Paperwhite, but opted to purchase the more expensive All-New Fire HD 8 Tablet with no advertising option for a few dollars more just to avoid a possible hassle in the future. Also forgot to mention that being an Amazon Prime member I received one day delivery. I was amazed as my Kindle and generic case arrived the following day. My account had already been added to the New Fire HD Tablet; Amazon how do you work so fast? Actually I didn't care. Well I charged up the beast jammed an SD card which has been removed I'll cover that later. Charged it up for a while and was off to the races. Some of the PROS are NEGS also in the course of Kindle Life.... Pros: *Browser is close to being a full browser and works *Nice bright full color HD display *Alexa plays, music, videos, news briefings, helps you shop Amazon, and I'm sure much more. *You Fire comes preconfigured to access and order off Amazon (So make sure to password protect your Fire so that someone doesn't make a fire of their own.) This too could get habit forming. CONS: *To get the configuration I wanted my only color available was black. Mute point as my Kindle will be remaining in its case for the duration. There is a slight learning curve involved with using Fire as it runs on a modified Android system. * I don't know why but the Amazon Calendar feed from my Google Calendar changes colors of my colored schedule items. For some reason my banana colored reminders show up blue on my HD Fire. This is a small item and I have a one more small item so far. (by the way I'm sure in time I'll learn how to better use my Fire HD as this is just week one. Kindle does allow other APPS outside the Amazon Modified Android environment, and of course they don't say that they will work; I figured for now go with the Amazon tested environment.) * Second APP issue is with Amazon Mail package which I have set up at the moment to pull my Google mail which it does flawlessly; however there is a slight display difference that I find a TAD annoying, and already know probably user error, but I can't find the setting to correct the following problem. In portrait mode you have a single clean message title and short description underneath (actually just a snippet from the first part of your received message) message display in one column; switch to landscape mode and you get a truncated version of the same from portrait on the left third of your display and a quick preview window on the right of the display. I could not figure out how to change this presentation and will learn to live with it, but wish that I could shut down or at least adjust the column size for this preview box in landscape. * Forgot to mention I wish there was a way to have a "Reward if found contact ___ ______." Option for when your screen is locked. It is really cool that there is firmware installed to locate this device, but would also like whoever finds my misplaced Kindle the option of phoning me to return it, rather than being hunted down.... ( I want both ;) ) Enough of my ranting. This was not the easiest review for me as I decided to stick with the Kindle fire for the entire review. That means that I'm learning the Kindle Fire Write application at the same time. Before I go may I say something about speed and chips. In computing one thing is clear you are only as fast as your slowest component. That is why I'm following Amazon's advice and will put in fast micro SD memory when I finally add to my Fire HD. Amazon had it in their documentation that you needed fast micro SD and my Fire even alerted me when I put in what is now considered sub-par for the Kindle in that it may affect performance. I chose to just stay at 32GB and will expand later with quality memory. Also, I really don't mind that the processor may be considered outdated by some as this Fire HD has performed fast and flawlessly so far. Not only does it access my home network well, but also Internet as much of the heavy lifting is done behind the scenes with Amazon servers and programming. Lastly. I primarily bought the Fire HD most of all to be able to read books and articles that have colored print, picture, charts, and illustrations!!! It is replacing my Kindle Paperwhite with this 8" Fire HD and loving it. I also had dreams of using my Fire HD like a Tablet, which I have done fairly successfully IMHO so far. Buy with confidence this is a great little tablet. I did not pay for protection and will update should it fail in the first 90 days. I'm using it daily and doing my best to put it through its paces. *note: Paid full price. Not Vine voice or any other "special" reviewers, just me. PS: Can't do cut and paste with my ANKER keyboard, so I used my finger instead. Was able to copy to memory using mouse to highlight and select. Had I held mouse down longer I would have been able to paste too. Oh well like I said I'm learning. Also lost all my formating. bd92154. Update: 25 March 2018. I still love my Kindle Fire. Additional observation Pros: * Drop In Price.... * Durable With Case On. * Bluetooth Has Worked flawlessly With Everything I've tried * Great Display * Transferring Files Easy Using USB cable. Cons: * Have To close applications often to get others to work. * MICRO SD stopped recognizing the 128GB chip I was using; New 64GB chip no problems * Sometimes Auto Cap And Spell goes Haywire like now :( All in all I still Love my Fire Tablet. Just may Buy another as a spare. Amazon needs a full robust tablet version to be available for those that want to work faster!!!! I think there are those of us that would gladly jump to the $400 to $1,000 range for something more even if it was a true Android tablet offered by Amazon running Fire as an App. 5/3/2018: UPDATE... I still love my Kindle Fire HD 8" with no advertising... Definitely the worth the extra money in time savings alone... Problem: I use Google APPS on all my other platforms... Kindle Fire HD with current OS does not play nice nice with all GOOGLE APPS. :( That said there are many ways to work around the problem. Also this still has the best sound of any tablet that I've heard. I've noticed some high end true Android tablets putting the speakers on the short side versus the long side of the tablet; thus favoring portrait vice landscape movie viewing. My wish list for AMAZON is to come out with an even higher priced Fire 8" HD tablet with more gusto and a true Android operating system or just make an Android application that mimics the Kindle Fire OS with access to Amazon applications so when I find something better that I can still have touch and feel of my HD Fire Tablet. Either one would be worth paying for. TY again Amazon for such a great product and service. ... show more
