Hey guys, I've just extracted the new Firefox Browser for the Amazon Fire Stick. To my surprise, it's working perfectly on Android TV, it even has the leanback launcher shortcut.
I thought I should share this with you guys .
Installation:
Sideload and enjoy.

Me for extracting

It's good to have alternatives ?

thanks man!

Didn't really like Puffin at all, so this is awesome to hear! How will we get updates though for the app?

Great app, but cant seem to download from it

Anybody figure out how to hide the blue mouse icon when watching a video in full screen?

Now if we could get an actual full-blown web browser for this thing....
Thanks for this, though! I'm guessing you'll upload updates as they come?

I sideloaded the latest chrome from my phone using an ftp app and installed it just fine. Works good with a mouse and keyboard or the shield controller as the right stick works as the mouse and left and right triggers work as left and right mouse buttons.

I tried it and I have to say it's very dumbed down version of Firefox. No settings. No account login etc.

Awesome, thanks man, works like a charm. Not full desktop experience but still better then nothing/puffin.
Do you happen to have a guide on how to extract and upload apk ourselves? Maybe that way few people can do it and keep the releases fresh.. Just a thought anyway, thank you for providing this to us!

Just install chrome all you have to do is use the voice button and say launch chrome it will bring you to a install screen install it then use the voice button to launch it say launch chrome and you have full version of chrome no side load needed you will have to use an air mouse keyboard remote or a separate keyboard and mouse.
And it will not show up in your apps so you have to launch it by saying launch chrome.

Hello,
Release 1.0.2 is available on apk mirror
Tested on my shield: everything is fine
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/mozil...irefox-android-tv-1-0-2-android-apk-download/

Tried both versions of Firefox. Seems to work great until you find you can't click or select anything. I won't use dolphin or puffin as they are spyware. So the hunt continues.

How you can start Silk Browser on Shield? I receive a message, that Silk Browser can not start, because Amazon Appstore is not installed.

(Q) Facebook on Prime?

Hi,
To all Prime owners,
How is the official Facebook app running on Transforme Prime?
Is fully tablet optimized?
Or a bit optimized?
Or not at all?
Please if you can post screenshot of the news feed in landscape mode.
Thanks
PS: I am not interested in Friendly nor FriendCaster.
Facebook is Tablet optimized. It looks just like the iOS version.
Its laggy and choppy for me. I find the desktop version works well on Opera.
Maybe I downloaded the wrong one... but facebook does not look tablet optimized to me. Looks identical to the phone version... but with lots of white space. Is there another version?

There's an app on the market called "friend me" works very well with the prime
it also lets you play flash games on fb haven't tired the flash games since i never play fb games
Ive been using friend me as well, the facebook application is the mobile version, it just looks 'OK' on the transformer, its not a tablet version (check the ipad version out thats how it should be).
Tweetcomb for twitter is best i've found to, very similar to tweetdeck for pc's
There are too many apps that should have a tablet version but don't (tv guide . co . uk for example - great on ipad, crap on honeycomb)

Problem is, Friend Me and Tweetcomb dont have push notifications.
Try Friendcaster or Friendcaster Pro in market. It has notifications. Don't get the Friendcaster Tab beta as it has ended and the features are integrated in the other versions.
I am running Friendcaster Pro and love it.. Works very well!

Chrome graphics issues. Anyone else?

I have been having some really funky issues with the graphics when in chrome. The issues seem to appear mostly when the keyboard is open, though I believe I've seen it at other times as well. Here is some examples. There are some other cases of where it shows like a scrambled up version of the page but i couldn't capture it. Any suggestions on a fix? Could it be from my 3rd party keyboard?
btw, this is the ics leak that i am using.

That is keyboard problem,not problem with Chrome.
Your swiftkey theme is ugly.
Also try using default keyboard as this seems to be swiftkey/chrome not playing together.

haha, i was trying to best match ICS. Hopefully swiftkey will release their new keyboard. I saw it had new themes.
i guess ill wait for an update to either chrome or the keyboard. stock browser works fine.
I too have these issues with chrome, no matter what keyboard I use.
It also acts up when I open links in new tab sometimes.
I m using the leaked ics but without firmware.
I think that's why its called
"chrome beta"
Same issues, stock, you are not alone.

Download the swiftkey 3 beta. It has a nice cobalt skin and a holo skin.
Look up swiftkey 3 beta, sign up for the forums, and download. You dont need to buy it agian.
I was having the same issues. Downloaded the SwiftKey 3 beta and it seems to have fixed the issue.
Also you can now ajust the haptic feedback. I turned it so I can barely feel it. Feels like I'm typing on something furry and I love it lolz

I can confirm these issues too. I don't know if it so much the fact that the app is beta because I've been googling to no end and I can't find anyone else with this issue. Could it be something specific to our phones?

The thing is chrome has awesome features integrated with your desktop version of Chrome. I use the main browser for flash since chrome doesn't support it, but it would be nice if we found a way to get rid of the graphical bugs.
Sent from my Evo3D Shooter.
I can confirm that I am having this problem as well.
I have used ViperROM ICS and MeanROM ICS; both do the same thing in Chrome. I have tried the Adreno 220 update and it seems to slightly help, but the problem is still there.
It seems that Chrome pulls some of it's settings from the stock browser, because playing with the debug settings in the stock browser seems to slightly improve the issue (I don't think it's my imagination). I have found that I get best results by forcing 2D hw acceleration in the main system dev options, then in the stock browser settings under "Debug" I turn off 'Enable CPU Upload Path' and turn on OpenGL (at the top).
The tearing and flickering still occurs, but it's slightly better. I'm beginning to wonder if it's a hardware problem? My theory is that it is freaking out trying to composite the transparent gradient above the keyboard (the part that darkens the webpage while you type).
I have tried many different keyboards; it's slightly better with some but the problem is there with them all.
Anybody have any ideas?
In several occasions I couldnt write login info because it wouldn't show me the keyboard

A couple Android Noob Questions..

Ok so what app do I need to get that will allow me to play you-tube in full screen portait ? A big missing feature coming from IOS
I am not having any luck finding out where my favorites are in Chrome, I just see mobile bookmarks and no other option to navigate to favorites. What I am missing ?
Vimeo not working in Chrome but works in native browser, seriously ?
The cleansing of the full phone search feature is really sad, the wifi reception is pretty weak but otherwise this phone is awesome coming from 4 plus years of iphones.
Flipboard on a 4.8 inch screen is incredible.
Thanks in advance

For Chrome, click on "Boommarks" to the left of where it says "Mobile Bookmarks" and it will take you up a level where you'll see a folder of your desktop bookmarks. See attached screen grab. Love this feature, btw.
As for the weak wifi, I agree. Doesn't do as well as my iPhone 4 did. But, the iPhone 4 and 4s sure can't do what this phone can.

I was wondering the same thing. After all, if the Video is fully from side to side, the only difference would be full black over the top and bottom section rather than additional info.
the vimeo thing works in stock because it uses flash player. it will never work in chrome because it will never have flash player.

Good to know about Chrome not supporting flash - What confuses me is that Vimeo works fine on IOS devices which of course do NOT support flash. And to add to that I am not seeing many flash sites mostly news sites work on this phone. The Adobe flash app thats native to this device seems to do nothing...
As far as youtube, IOS 4 or newer renders a full screen portrait mode, that somewhat compresses the content on the sides and magnifies the image. Its basically doing a zoom function which is pretty sweet. I thought for sure there would be some Android app that could do the same. I find it silly to have this giant screen and when I play in portrait I get a 1.5X1.5 video with the rest of the screen filled with useless text.
I can easily find my mobile bookmarks in Chrome, what I dont see is the bookmarks I have been saving in favorites. How does one get to the actual saved favorites folder ? It should not be this difficult. The bookmarks in the stock browser are much easier to navigate -

[Q] Videos will only play in browser..cant stand it

Hello all. I recently got a dna, i am coming from a thunderbolt. This phone is 100 percent stock. When on pages like facebook and i click on a video, it will only play it really small in the browser, i get no option of what program to use to watch the video in. There is no way to make it full screen and i cant rewind or ff most the time. Whay do i need to change to make videos open in a video app by default and not in the browser. It does it on the stock browser as well as dolphin. Any help would be appreciated.

This may or may not solve your specific problem with Facebook, but lets say you wanted Youtube videos to play in the Youtube app instead of in the browser, all you have to do is go to settings>application associations (i think that's the name, it should be right under applications) and change the video player from browser to Youtube, or whichever app you would prefer videos be played in, you can do that with any of the options available in that section. Though certain apps like facebook where its a video uploaded to their service will probably still only play there.
I hope this helps!
Did you try in another browser like Chrome ??
I tried the settings in app associations, still no go. Also tried this in firefox and got the same result. Any othet suggestions

i don't get why the HTCLinkify stuff doesn't wokr on here like it did ICS? i guess it's coded diff in JB?
Try downloading Chrome and setting it to your default for web links. On mine when I used the stock browser everything opened in there no matter what my app associations were, but when I had Chrome set all of them worked.
It's all integrated pretty deep into the OS in Sense 4 iirc. Hoping it's removed in 5

yes because camera and gallery is the same app.
we should blacklist the certain activities, not the whole app.

Great app
Hi,
This is a great app and is working well but I just wanted to report a slight bug... if in kids mode the homebutton on my Samsung Galaxy S5 is held down then Google Now launches. This isn't so much of an issue but if a search is performed then Chrome opens and the kids are able to get on the Internet and mess with bookmarks etc.
Thanks for your great work on this

Thanks for making this module! I was thinking that this is just what is needed using Xposed after looking into the parental controls that are in Amazon tablets, and things like the OLPC tablet, and Nabi.
I hope that this can grow into a full featured parental control app with usage time limits, and tracking of what apps are used most. Then no matter what android device I use can be safe from the kids messing up the device, or going where they shouldn't.
If the app usage tracking is added, it could serve much the same purpose as the OLPC tablet does in helping to see what your children are interested in. You could make available many different subject learning apps and see which your kids use most, and help encourage them to explore more deeply into that subject. All without having to report this information to some huge multinational company like google, amazon, or MS.
Thanks for the module! Has potential, however it isn't quite working on my Nexus 4 N5X ROM 4.4.4. I am able to add shortcuts and enable kids mode, but when I press the home key it takes me to my stock home screen not the kids mode home screen!
